Probably going to stay like this because I'm investing in power. I'm from Florida so I guess it fits.

KBA (Kraftfahrt Bundesamt-Nummer) is similar to the US's DOT, except they are more strict when it comes to cars. Heck you cant even have a slow leak in your tire in Germany. Im sure they are better rims than that in Germany tho. How about some nice BBS wheels?

More pics of the wing. I don't think it looks that bad.

Hey friend,
you should really ask!
Normally you don´t need the KBA-Number. You only need information about the load capability of the rims. And VOLK rims should have a small badge with all the information a TÜV-guy would need to legalize them.

I know alot of guys with VOLK wheels here in germany!
f.e. this S2000 is from a guy here in germany.
He has VOLK Wheels (one of my most favourite wheels of any time!!)



My advans also don´t have a KBA-number.
My opinion is the same as Rx7rcers.

If possible you should never ever change some nice VOLK-Racing Wheel against some german wannabe nice rims.
It is nearly impossible to find nice rims in germany. They try to copy the US style... But unfortunately 5 year old US-style.

KÖNIG produced such wheels 5 years ago. I think this black / silver wtf style is really worn out.

Not only that I would bet that those VOLKS are way better quality in terms of weight and stability than those ETABETAs
And you should consider that you don´t run a 100mph max VW Jetta. You will drive 180mph on the autobahn for sure...
Then you will be thankful to have good quality rims!

I think they have a style that doesen´t go out of date! Like ADVANs or RAYS or GRAMLIGHTS.

Just my 0.02$

If you don´t want to keep them PM me ...

(SORRY FOR OFFTOPIC!!)

Dan, thanks for the kind words! This is my first FD . This car is pretty much one of the cleanest FDs I have ever seen and that's the reason I just bought it. I am the 4th owner, always garaged, 24,000 original miles and not bastardized like most of the FDs you see these days.

Big thanks to my Brother (Goodfellafd3s) for coming and getting all dirty doing the compression test and a once over on the car for me and Thanks to Dan and Tom for coming along with inspection duties .

Pictures compliments of John Renna, thanks again! BTW, car was dirty in the pics and had no wax









Enjoy

Ryan

Bewtew, I saw that car this past weekend at an oviedo car show. Looked really clean. Didn't get a chance to meet the owner though. I was wondering if I would ever see it again!
