well the stock system sounded like crap so i put in a cheap cd player and now it sounds great.not too many stories about the car my uncle was the original owner

and grage kept the car mostly its whole life. since ive bought the car ive replaced the clutch,installed a bonez race pipe in place of the clogged cat,installed a cd

player,re did all the brakes and rebuilt the carb. the car runs like a raped ape! ive also purchased a set ef enkei's but havent had the chance to mount them

yet.other then that the car is all original...down to the oirginal tires lol

i do prefer the stock wheels on such a low mileage car. its a shame that you'll replace them but i do understand if the clearcoat is crap. makes you wonder how the clearcoat turns ragged when the car rests in the garage for years. my 86K 82 GSL was the same way. the wheel's clearcoat was shot but the interior was near mint!

+1 for those Enkeis! Should be getting my black ones soon. Too bad I won't get to see them in person until I get back to the states.

Did you find any center caps? I have been looking but have been unable to source a set.

What tires did you purchase? I will be putting Kuhmo AST's on for now. Great reviews and only $50 per tire from www.tirerack.com
