      You can go less than 13 in the front. I have et9 in the front and it looks perfect.

        Those rims look like cheese graters. I dig them though. Have fun with it.

                yes it does suck to clean between the spokes, but it would be worth it

                  Et10 is perfect for the fronts btw. Got any better pics? I cam imagine et0 in the front to stick out way too much.
                  Is that a white steering wheel?

                          That is a white with pink paint splatter steering wheel from japan. It's got chrome spokes and looks like a 350mm Nardi Classic with a little dish. :D Not everyones taste I know, but I love it.

                          I'll get some pics of the ET0 front. It used to stick out a ton but I pulled the fender enough so that instead of the metal pointing down it points like 45 degrees out to clear. I will admit its pretty wavy from all the pulling but I really did not want to do fender flares. Hopefully I can correct the waveys with some body work later down the road(if I don't crash it first at the track).

                          I also have the center caps for the wheels but I can't run them until I have wheel studs. The current long lug nuts have this weird dome on the hex part thats a few mm shy of letting my center cap bolt on. :\

                          And as for WHY i decided ET0, I used to rock 17x10 +15 on my old car, and I'm kind of a flush nazi(borderline mexiwheel fan). I also have to keep up with my roommates 18x10.5 -10. o.O He's the fitment king.

                              My jealousy of the wheels and pain from your slap is gorgeous.

I have always been skeptical of the SR20 motors, and I already have a 300hp KA24DE, so ill be swapping that in. :D I DID buy an RB25 for the project intially but the hassle of rebuilding it, moving the firewall, moving the radiator support, etc. was too much of a headache. Id like to keep a BMW motor but for my needs a KA is better suited. I dont feel like smashing on redline on a expensive s50 and having to rebuild one every year and KAs are dime a dozen.
                                ka huh. that should be a cool swap. probably one of the first too. ive been toying with the idea of either getting a 240 as my beater drift whore and keeping my e30 as my daily. or vise versa and swapping a CA in my e30. reason for ca is how cheap they are. dont know yet. either one would be cool. anyways.. cant wait to see more progress on your car. anyone give ya shit on ziptied?
