Great point....they`re not. I remember you tried shifting your SSR professors with no luck. I must admit I was shocked as they`re arguably the best 5 spoke wheel made in japan along with meisters and the lmgt4.

I had to laugh at the fella with the 4 door for taking off a set of rare Works which really suited his car and then paying €800+ for a set of rota copies to fit in with the norm, when he was so far ahead in terms of wheel choice on a nissan in Ireland.

I had a set of forged 3 piece splits (et+12) 9J and 11J with new bridgestones and I got them for €850!!!! There out there if you open your eyes!


I agree with your point of making them fit as thats what a lot of the cars in that video did, roll and flare and negative camber+stretch until they fit.

I think there`s a growing trend in Ireland almost worthy of the title IDM, whereby...
-you buy an s13/s14
-fit a hovercraft kit (a fake URAS copy of course)
-fit rota torques/gtr (normally white for some reason)
-put stickers on at crooked angles
-engine mods consisting of FMIC+catch tank and bee-r limiter with no remap
-big gay wing
-dildo gear knob
-paint some part of it with luminous paint
-use tie wraps as visual enhancement

and then call it a "drift spec" car.

I`ve yet to see someone in Ireland fit the Supermade instant gentleman kit which is a mystery as it`s proabably the best kit you can get for it.
