Cool pics of car and list of mod progress so far.

hey

i got a s5 tII and I just started modding it about 2 months ago. Some of the mods came with the car. The previous owner installed work rims, recaro seats, trust shocks, some japanese steering wheel, front strut bar, front and rear sway bars, knight sports turbo (not sure which one), autometer boost gauge, rebuilt motor (12k km on it).

Since then... i have added a few things

Im in the process of relocating my battery into a aluminum box. I have rewired my new walbro 255lph fuel pump and im soon going to be installing my new 720cc secondaries that i just purchased. I had the waste gate ported, installed a turbo back racing beat exhaust w/ dp, K&N cone filter, greddy EGT gauge, HKS SSQV and a clarion deck. I also purchased an s-afc from a friend but i havent had it installed yet.

Just wondering if you guys got any opinions or thoughts on what i can do next. Flame if you want any feedback is good

BY THE WAY: Im horrobile at taking pictures as u can tell by the blurryness. I'll post pics of the engine bay/interior/tail lights tommorow wen i get a chance to take some pics.

Very clean car... wow... can't quite explain why that one makes me drool so much more than others posted on here... gotta be the exhaust... or the wheels... or something. And I'm usually not a fan of 5 spokes (Gimme BBSs with deep dish!)

I got a suggestion, actually a comment. But the rims, they're awesome, except for one thing...


TOO SMALL!!!! NOOOOOOoooooo

so nice too, but they're way to small IMO, the tires just look to big on em..

But yea that car is very tight other than that.. ******* purdy

Why chrome rims?

Just get some spinners instead

Leave the chrome rims on the muscle cars, trucks and SUV's.

The rims are not too small. They are perfect.
Any bigger & you have to go to 45 or 40 serise tires to keep the final drive ratio and tire clearance reasonable.

If you are going to replace them with something like you posted, keep what you got.

Yeah the wheels are a bit small, but it's still a 9.5 out of 10.
