I disagree. I'd also rather have a classic timeless design like a Meister (real ones are not over used) than some ugly "jdm" wheel because it's rare.

True, most of the "ultra JDM' wheels are ugly. The works are nice and all way to over used. They are the "it" wheel for the time being.

You can't beat a five spoke look on a curvy car like the FD.....

Hungry, good to see you come out of your lengthy hibernation

Looks like the Beast needs to be lowered

Just finished fabbing and powdercoating a custom bracket for my custom AST (7 inch depth versus standard 6 inch) and plumbed it back into the system. Was having a difficult time keeping air out of my system with the AST removed, so I just decided it was time to put it back in and try something new to see if I get a better result. So far, so good!

Use this address and see how far you are from Tail of the Dragon/Deals Gap/ US 129.

17548 Tapoco Road, Robbinsville, NC‎

There are ton of people from NE coming to this event this year. I think close to 15 cars from NYC.

It's around 700 miles from me and I am in North NJ. Cost is $25 per person/car and cost of lodging is around $150 for the weekend for one person. Everyone that is heavily involved in this community i.e. all the thought leaders and those that have ***** will be there.

Here is the link to the NE caravan we started:

Click on the Deals Gap Rotary Rally picture in the Sig above you to get more info.

I've owned supras for the 3 supras over the past 15 years, I had quite the obsession with them. I've owned 2 fd3s over 12 years and nothing can compare with the pure light weight sports car feel that you get with driving one, let alone your 3-rotor monster. I'm not going to argue that the 2jz is probably one of the best engines to come out of japan, but the technology and the look of the supra is quite dated. the rx7 is a timeless design
