Nic you might just be my new best friend! I've spoken to them about wheels before, but when I asked (email) about a tune for my car, they didn't respond. I've heard good things about them, but I don't have time to check them out for myself.

If you do stop by one day, can you ask about tuning NA lancers? We need to find a good tuner here in WA, with all the new members there is bound to be some money in it for them.

That'd be really good, maybe if a few of us ask them, they might actually give us the time of day! :lol: As for RPW, without going into details: No, I didn't. :)

EDIT: Aaron, I sent through the details of the wheels we wanted (size etc) you still wanted the G-Force in hyperblack right? 18x8.5 +44? Let me know if I got it wrong - I asked for the price with Kumho KU31's, we will see what they come up with and go from there. If they can't give us a good price, then we can just go back to VisionR :)

One thing to note, this guy doesn't have the wheel nuts as part of the package. I was thinking of getting a set of Muteki ones like Rahul's... http://www.evasivemotorsports.com/merchant2/merchant.mvc?Screen=PROD&Product_Code=Muteki-Blk&Category_Code=L1

Thanks Aaron! Yeah, to be a "qualified" accountant you need to be either a Chartered Accountant (CA) or a CPA. The plan is to be fully qualified by the end of next year. The best part is I get an automatic pay rise as part of my contract :D

Oh and black or blue for me Rahul, but thanks for the offer :)

Hi Josh,

The wheel and tyre combo (mentioned above) is roughly around $1600.

We are pushing for a cheaper price though, even just $100 off is better than nothing :)

tail-lights look very z4-ish

i'd be interested to see the price and how it goes - there aren't enough late model (affordable) sports cars these days

After the late 90's and early 00's it seems they just stopped making them! probably due to emission laws and stuff? atleast they're affordable now :P
