Just installed an os giken twin plate and s5 t2 tranny. Oh yeah and the rtek 2.0, finally ready to turn the boost up. Too bad I can't drive it for a wk or two. Going for knee surgery tomorrow. At least the season hasn't really started yet.

Oh, and my coil overs came in a couple days ago! Hoping to get them in the car over the next wk or so.

The car is looking great Brent! It's a shame Ontario forces us to have a front marker on the car.

Speedy recovery with the knee thing. Let me know if you want me to keep the car warmed up for ya.

Those rims look great on the car! They remind me of Advans Model 5 which are one of my favorite rims.

Thanks guys, like TAL said, they are Advans.
They were pearl white when I got them, so I stripped them and repaired some curb rash. Then they went to Pheonix powder coating in newmarket for a coat of gloss black and a coat of clear.
Not sure of the model, sorry. The 5's are def sweet. I'll post a new pick when I get the spacers and coil overs installed.

Here's a pic of the clutch and flywheel. Had to shorten the rod in the slave by .5" because I used a stock throw out bearing. Apparently the os giken one is thinner.
