Do it Graham! They'd look fab.

I believe there's a guy here called Steve Phillpot with a black rev3 turbo, red seats, and Kahn RSrs. Look fab.

They're 18's actually (215 on front and 245 on rear). Off the top of my head I think they're 37 offset but I might be wrong about that, haven't checked in a while. They are staggered though, I think they're 7.5" on front and 8" on rear IIRC.

It's lowered 40mm all round too, have a look at www.mr2-turbo.co.uk for more info.

I've garaged the car over Winter while I do the ICE install and a few new mods but as soon as Spring comes I'll get some new pics for the garage :)

Hurstie, I got the silcone piping from James (Bender Unit) on here. Much cheaper than Fensport or similar. I believe he's doing a group buy at the moment so just give him a shout.

I just bought that from Japfest or some other show, was a couple of quid for loads of it. I just pulled off a few pipes, took them to the stand and the guy gave me 3m of each size.

Im just worried about pulling off pipes, are they all vacuum hoses then, i was just afraid of pulling one off then a load of fluid coming out of it!

If you're worried just follow where the hose comes from and goes to, you'll easily be able to spot if it's liquid or just air inside it.

Italian VOXX MGRs are the exact same blueprint as the Kahn RSR which is also known as the MAS President in North America. They came in 17x7 and 17x8 ET40 in the Voxx and 17x10 in the MAS.
