Sorry chap, don the flame suit because that IMO (which as an opinion is worth fk all BTW) is utterly horrendous. Wheels are far too small and make what was a fairly good car just look like it's owner can't afford a proper set of wheels.

Sorry, please don't take offence, each to their own and all that - but it looks, well, just silly.
TBFH, it's big enough (look at the tyre sidewall) and has a classy look. (Maybe 'coz BBS? Isn't it a proper one, now is it?) Obviously you're that kind of guy who loves this type then:



I don't like when huge rims attached on an older car, they look just ridiculous.

Is that a RWD Puma... or 4wd perhaps?
I know the guy, he's a painter/fabricator, bloody good one at that!

The puma is 4wd, obviously a big power cossie lump backs up the mean look. Very quick, and very cool! Subtle it isn't! He also has numerous absolutely beautiful escorts, most with tuned pinto engines. I'm not jealous in the slightest. At all. Not me. bd.

Not sure it's even the wheels, but the tyres. Nothing sets of an old yank tank like that more than a nice fat sidewall on the rear tyres!

Copied from the internet..

The 0-60 claims I fully believe too.

Yes, you're right about the BDT engine....
Those figures are ridiculous. It runs at Brighton Speed Trials every year. Last year it did a 9.63 quarter @ 142mph.
Figures make perfect sense for kph.

'RIPS' tuned GT-R34 (Stealth) - This car will hit 130mph in 10 secs and will apparently do in 4th gear '50 - 120' in 5 seconds yikes



Just needs to lose that rear spoiler and this car will be perfect IMO yum
Anymore info or pics of this? Really like the look of that, bar the rear spoiler.

Looks nice

However isnt 0 - 130 in 10 seconds not that much considering how much has been done?

Although that 50 - 120 figure is rather nice

i sometimes park it on the pavement due to the amount of daftys that are doing silly speeds around the place i stay
im a bit paranoid about it getting spanked by some dafty
The Car looks perfectly acceptable to me subtle and stylish,
However the above statement is a tad worrying, you would rather force pedestrians to walk on a dangerous road than leave your car there confused
