lovin them wheels.

very nicely put together!

I think it looks awesome! Wouldn't change a thing on it!

thats one neat looking ef , how big are the wheels??

Looks great, don't see too many in that purple with the paint in decent condition.

Looks mint dude, classy and very tidy! Those wheels suit it so well, would have those any day over BA GT wheels. Do you know what brand and offset they are by any chance?

Those wheels are sweet, wouldn't change a thing either

Thanks guys

I found the wheels on ebay, they are Work VS Edition, Jap wheels & are 18x8 and 18x9. The offset is close to E series, I think +8mm rings a bell where E sreies is +6 & 114.3 pcd. they are a pretty old style now & the Work VSXX have replaced them. The new style looks awesome, but sell for around 3k

Would buy this car In a second. Seriously one good looking ef

Ahh still love those wheels!

Bloody good paint for a car that gets washed once every 26 weeks. I like it mate

>MFW this car.


Don't touch it. Unless you put on a Ticky kit.

EDIT: post moar pics of interior. Nao.

It gets kept under cover so paint stays good despite no wash, it has had the bonnet, front guards & bumper re-sprayed (stone chips), new headlights and I restored the window surrounds etc. with matt black & then clear coat. its' the little things that give it a new look. I'm working on the interior, it's a bomb site at the moment & throw up some pics in a couple of weeks. Cheers~

This car is the deal!
Looks awesome with the rims and going by those door trims looks good inside too!
Have u painted the trims yourself from a spray can?

thanks mate, I've seen your beast around on the Peninsula, looks tops mate.
I will get flamed, but yeah all the interior is done in matt black spray paint. It looks perfect, doesn't come away etc..will get some pics up!

haha thanks mate, give us a toot next time you see me lol

More pics of inside would be great!
Youll have to come out to sum club events, wouldnt mind seeing it in the flesh

Absolutely love that colour on these, looks the goods mate

I did the wheel centres on the left side of the car in gloss white on the weekend, i've always likes white mags. I'm not sure if i like the look or not, they look way different to the silver. I can always do the centres in silver again so It's not a problem or I can do the other side in white too. What do you guys reckon, does it look good/bad? check out the pics!

I'd prefer silver.

I actually don't mind it.

Silver.

silver.

silver, and your front tyre need some air

Silver

definately white , i love those centres painted white.i wud do the other side now! looks hot.

If you want a democracy, then silver wins!!

White ruins the classy look of your fairmont

Car looks mint, white wheels set it off a bit!

Looked great with the silver, now looks like you painted them white I reckon throw some big spacers behind em and it'd be perfect (silver)

ha, decisions, deee...cisions..I'll pop the centre caps in & put a better pic up...i'm undecided. I'm like a female wondering what dress to wear out tonight! When it's parked on the street it looks massively hot at some angles, but then side on it's slightly weird, white makes the spokes look thinner.

^ lol except your car wont look better without it's "dress"

Just looks so sweet in the pics at the top of the page, reason I suggested spacers is the wheels sit a fair way under the guards. You gotta do what pleases you, we're only seeing the pictures.

yeah, the wheels are'nt exactly e-series offset.I don't know much about offsets etc, but I think E-series are 114.3 stud pattern and +6 offset where these are +8, close but slightly different. They are Japanese so probably suit Nissan etc. I'm gonna go back to silver, the white looks good, but doesn't suit the car as well I've decided.

this thing looks awesome. rims suit it to a T.

I like it with the white, I think.
Slip on spacer rings of ~1-2cm would be good for sure, providing you've still got heaps of stud available.

You know how much I love this car bloke!! I had a crack at buying it, but I think you made the correct decision to keep it! Also, I am for the white wheels, I am of the opinion that it very much goes with the colour of the car. Great work!

**** yeah, love it with white!!!!

If you want to swap/sell, gimme a yell!!

now thats another 3 for white! up to you at the end of the day, do what u like best!

White wheels make it look tacky and cheap

Says the guy with the 300C on bags!! I think it looks jap spec to be honest, don't know why, but it was the first thing that I thought of when looking at it.

Definitely the right decision, don't you Kill cars?



I agree with the opinion that the wheels look good in white as well as silver, but they don't suit the car. Maybe if they were on a 180/200zx

Dont mind the white.
