What are the specs on the wheels and tire sizes?

Since you're in Palm Springs, come to our monthly meets in San Bernardino. We hang out for an hour every 2nd Saturday of the month from 9-10am, then go on a cruise through the mountains (beautiful scenery with some great twisties) then onto lunch. Here is a link to the thread with the meet time and place:

those are enkei wheels, I forget the model but they have been discontinued for like 9 years. IMO that's what the stock wheels should had looked like.

kensin, I think I know this FD. did you get it from Joey.... ???

I think you got a very good deal. I didn't buy the car because I can't take care 2 FDs at the same time.

here is a pic I took on the same car:





congrats man. The is very well done, in mind opinion it was pretty cheap.
