there is cash waiting for the right wheels
-
right need some nicer rims for the altezza some thing with atleast 8.5-9 j rim a good offset and preferably dished 17s or 18s need good quality tyres no nexen death tyres and a good amount of tread cash waiting for the right wheels maybe part ex with my wheels is possible too there kei 17 i think had the car a week and aint even seen it yet lol

well the coilys should be quite stiff compared to lowering springs so you can go lower i normally drop till is about 10 mm arch to tyre gap but then it all depends on if it rubs on the inner arch an that set it at -45mm drive it then drop more say 10 mm at a time till you get the stance you want then go have the geometry set up so all your camber ect is correct as lowering its going to adjust all the geometry quite alot get it done by a proper company though some one whos well recommended

can't turbo run without remap? if it is making 0.3bar like the SC... someone said turbo needs remap and SC doesn't.
if your pushing more air through then if its a charger or a turbo dont matter you are still altering the afr so i would map it and even for a small power increase bigger pump and fpr just to keep the fuel pumpin in no one likes det an leaving it unmapped is a sure way to det your engine trust me iv had it a few times it seriously fuks the engine a water injection kit really helps but nothing beats it being mapped properly

its al down to turbo spec i should imagine a gt28r off a s15 would be perfect can easy push 350-380 bhp on one you will need
the turbo
manifold for the turbo
down pipe
decat/sportscat
straight through pipe
turbo elbow
intercooler hard pipe kit
fpr
boost controller
255lph pump
bigger injectors
intercooler
remap if its possible on these ecus or a piggy back atleast
i would recomend better coilpacks from splitfire and a cooler grade of plugs
i would change the clutch plate aswell for something abit tougher
as for the rest of the car with that power id go for atleast uprated discs and pads and slightly stiffer suspension lowered abit atleast but thats just me

i've never liked the rays ones, also the rota gtrs i've never likes either, the tte chromes have sold now so i'm just waiting for my tyres for the dynamics ones now, should be on by midweek :D
fair enough mate, each to their own. worth remembering though that rota wheels are always an inferior copy of a genuine japanese wheel...
ahh rotas aint actually that bad had em on a few cars iv owned good quality no match for work emotions though ;) i happen to be looking for some in bronze or te37s in bronze or gramlights 57s in bronze in as wide as possible to fit my altezza :) lovin the white on white mate looks classy are you just up the road from catterick?

at 400 im in if this is still going

id say the super dragger was best and a nicer sound but tbh id go for a blitz nurspec r if you can get one sounded sexual on the skyline and when i get round to it if they do one thats what il be going for on the altezza

if those were my only two choices i'd go with the TTEs. team dynamics make some nice wheels but that design is over-popular and made by every cheap company in the world.... TSW, mania, wolfrace etc etc all produce very similar looking wheels. there's also plenty of ISs rolling about with that style on already.... ok so yeah there's plenty with the TTEs on as welll but you'd retain an OEM+ look.
all IMO of course :winky:
tbh i think both them designs look a bit well gay te37's in bronze mental offset an i think ya there fella maybe with a bit of strech too but thats just imo

hi there fellas just got my self a toyota altezza rs200 unfortunaly the tiptronic version but cant complain as i got it stupid cheap
im from right down south on the isle of wight but im based at catterick garrison since i was quite stupid and transferd from the reme to the infantry :/ lol its good fun but in 7 weeks i will be in woolwich so anyone in these areas?
iv got a few plans for the car although im gonna be asking a fair few questions as iv always had nissans apart from the supra and a gto but the rest iv had pulsars r32 gtr,r33 gtst,s13s,s14s,s14a,300zxtt's but never an altezza so theres lots for me to learn about them
the first thing on the list is a set of hsd coil overs and some beefy wide as wheels so first question then whats the widest 17's and what offset can you have i dont mind having to flair my arches a little and if it requires a mental strech of the tyre to fit the well all the better maybe some pics of your guys cars will help me im thinking bronze or white work emotions :)
Is 200 Wheels
