Do you still have the rims on the RX-4 when you bought it? That's a slick set.

Not yet. I still need to customize my oil pan. That and I have brain damage......hehe (ask Norm about that). Do you know anyone that can help me with the oil pan? Every shop I hit up tell me they are busy. I really want one made of aluminum.

Aluminum oil pan? That would be nice but an overkill since we have oil cooler. Check with Rene if he can make it.

I've tried that. He was so busy that he had my oil pan for almost 3 months and still didn't have time to work on it. Oh well.
