Not particularly dirty to begin with, but working on cleaning up the engine bay. Also shots next to its temporary garage mate, and fresh off the delivery truck earlier this week.

I can read Japanese but this is kind of beyond my comprehension. What the heck exactly is he complaining about? Sounds like a mentally unstable anti beigun person wrote this. The handwriting is nice though lol

Looking good! I've been thinking about doing something like that. Is this Midnight Purple II (LV4) or Midnight Purple III (LX0)? Must've cost you a pretty penny! And I used to rock those Enkei RP01s in silver back in the days. Ah memories...

Hey thanks! It's LX0(dialed up to 11 lol), and yea it was not a cheap venture... The RP01's are my good friend's. I sold my refinished MS-01's to a FC GTUs owner, so I'm just borrowing these for now. They're nice wheels but they clash with the new color a lot.

what a cool lineup! almost got a 99 vr4 back in 2002, but ended up with a 98 Mitsu GSX. Clean Vr4 was just outta my price range. Wish I would've kept the GSX. Of course the Supra is the king of the hill with JDMs. Great collection!

I forgot exact specs, so pulled them off and checked. Hope this info helps someone(prob common knowledge at this point though lol)-
Front- 18x8 +30 225/40-18
Rear- 18x9 +35 255/35-18
20mm spacer on all 4, so effective offsets are +10 Front / +15 Rear

My old Mazdaspeed MS01's were similar-
17x8 +35 235/45-17 (+15 w/ 20mm spacer)
17x9 +34 255/40-17 (+14 w/ 20mm spacer)

New wheels are high on the priority list!

Appreciate the spec info. Personally I think those white RP01 go pretty well with your Midnight Purple III
