Re: Mk2 2gr supercharged
Yep i really like them, they're a Work Equip replica so not a million miles away from the Alumi K TRD wheels, but i have to say i prefer these, nicer dish and simpler design.

And that is them just ordered, next on the shopping list is suspension and brakes.
Re: Mk2 2gr supercharged
Very nice Paul. Much nicer than the RX8 wheels fitted when bought.

Re: Mk2 2gr supercharged
Yeah they're bloody awful
Re: Mk2 2gr supercharged
They look like very dishy TRD Alumi K's / Work Equips but without the bolts / step lip.
Very nice.
Very nice.

Re: Mk2 2gr supercharged
A small impulse buy, GT86 TRD gear knob, it has the 6 speed and reverse pattern in the correct place, got to be good for 50bhp
Re: Mk2 2gr supercharged
This looks terrific Paul!
Whats the colour scheme? I always fancied going TRD with my Sonic Shadow I thought the 2 tone would work really well with the bodykit and include the black sidestrips to stop it looking too slab sided.
Mine was a flying machine. Yours with circa 400hp with torque almost from idle your supercharged version is going to be a proper weapon on the road!

Re: Mk2 2gr supercharged
Get off my build thread you huge freak of nature.
But yes, why build one when you can build two for double the price, i stole that from JR Hadden in the film Contact.
Shiney round things arrived, lightning fast delivery from the US.
Quick test fit on the car, i spent a while working on offsets etc..... on the front i am 5mm away from the strut, on the rear i am miles away, a good 20mm.
My Berk headers have also arrived, these are good for a minimum of 45bhp on the 2gr, not sure what gains we will see supercharged.
Thinking about Cayenne 6 pots up front to pull this thing back to zero quite quickly, not sure on that yet.
