haha, funny you mention that...
I gots me a set!

Does yours require those stupid adapters?
My wheels are drilled 5 x 100, and the stickers clearly state "5 x 114.3".
I was like WTF!?!?!
I found out that early Volk wheels used these stupid adapters to adjust offset - guess it made it easy to produce the wheels!
I got my wheels without the adapters, but I managed to snag down a set of those stupid adapters off of YJA!
YAY!

hahahaha.. yeah, mine thankfully came with them... i noticed they were 5x100 and was like WTF?? but the spacers were 5x114... lol... very wierd

my big problem is im missing one center cap and ring, and one of the centercaps is missing the volk "sticker".... i didnt think it would be so hard to hunt them down, but im finding it pretty impossible! i dont care if i have to buy a full set, i just cant find anyone selling them... so keep your eye out for me ted

No, it's not a multi lug wheel, they have a conversion spacer. Big difference.

yeah, im pretty sure they used the smaller lug pattern to keep the center opening smaller, to make the spokes a smidge longer... if they had used the 5x114..the center would have had to be bigger...

This is not a problem.
I dunno which version of the caps you've got?
This is one version:
http://page4.auctions.yahoo.co.jp/jp/auction/d62921570

I got through http://www.bidschoice.com/ to buy stuff from YJA.
Joji is really helpful and quick with transactions.

If you need help, I can find the particular cap you need, but I need to know which ones you got...

I'm surprised I can't find set for you right now.
They are pretty popular right now, so I'm sure some will pop up soon.
I'll keep an eye out for them, cause I have to look for another set of caps for my BR Sports.

I know it's not a rare part, but where can you get the rubber piece for the TII hood?

Contact Ray @ Malloy Mazda in VA. He should be able to get that for you.

LoL I dunno. My hood is 1 of 3 that I know of in the country. One was on RX-Hevens vert which he sold to Astrochild. Then there are 2 that i had imported to me and I sold one of them to a local guy. I have never seen anyone else in the states post pics of their car with the panspeed hood so I think its pretty safe to say that 3 in the US probably isn't far off.
