ffft 14 inch on a hachi = so small? Yeah Right. So UEO Katsuhiro's 86 wheels are small too???
Due to the wheelbase, as a general rule you dont go higher than 15 inch. I C.B.F explaining do a bit more research kid

Hey Tats. Thanks mate. Lately i've been driving it. I just bought another car just for work and running around so i'll probably give the hachi a rest. It'll only see trackdays and weekends i think and an occasional trip to work. Take it ezy dude

Thanks Mr Wheels and Deals!
Same goes towards the SEXY16 hedgebeater, looks alot better in the flesh. Good to see that the hilux diff fits under the guards too. It would've sucked if you had to do work to those nice wheel arches. Oh and thanks for the Kouki Power Mirrors.

Oh and i was feeling very camera-happy today so i hope y'all have ADSL

Thanks mate. I ordered the whole goodline kit but the front bar was too low to be driving on the street all the time. So i'll just use the jblood on the street as it has over 1 inch more clearance than the goodline bar and i'll put the goodline bar on for toyota fest and other upcoming events.

Nice car there. Dark with white rims, thats looks good and original.
I need to no, I don't like having a car that has the same color has others, so I'm buying paint of a friend. The color is midnight red. Is this the same color you used on yours?
