Pictures of decently Modified cars [Vol. 2]

[LanceRS]

It looks better than the Bristol that it’s trying to look like.

[Harry Flashman]

That said I have just looked at other 162s and no longer like what has been done to the C pillar in the black car. The originals look better.

[DodgyGeezer]

talking of 162's these renders look pretty damn cool

That looks nice. What’s the engine and what sunny part of the world is that. Looks way nicer than the U.K. today

[Matt Cup]

It’s the US, and I put what engine it was above the last pic

[Mr lestat]

Supra engine. Must confess I didn’t know what a j2z was

[Matt Cup]

Apologies I thought everyone knew what a 2JZ was. Yes you are correct it’s a Supra/Toyota unit.

A hell of a lot better than the engine it replaced in terms of sound and reliability.

I do like that Esprit

Are those Enkei wheels? I can't make up my mind whether they are or not.

While I approve of the 2JZ, I think I'd have gone RB26 (Skyline GTR engine, for the non-beards!)

Great but really let down by the wheels, too modern looking and not classy enough.

Now this is no longer mine I feel as I can now include it in here

Nope, covered in stickers, but I don't see a roll cage.

At first glance they look like Enkei RPF-1s but I'm fairly sure they're not.

- The centre rim where the spokes segue in is too wide.
- RPF-1s don't have a lip on the centre bore.
- Can't see any Enkei logos.

I can't place them atm. There are quite a lot of possibilities to churn through...

In a road car, 2JZ for me. Better low down torque.

I think they might be Fikse Profil 5S's.

The Espirit is on 5x double spoke wheels, RPF1-S are 6x double spoke

At first glance I thought they were BMW M- Parallels in staggered fitment. The spoke design/stepped lip looks correct and there were late 80s/90s lotus that have the same 5x120PCD arrangement as BMW. However on closer inspection the BMW wheels have small holes in between the wheel nut holes which the wheels on the Lotus are missing.

Dam cool car and definitely in the right thread!!

I thought they were R33 GT-R wheels...except that they're split rims and the GT-R has one piece and the spokes are wider apart and there is no "lip" round the centre... Still, very very close.

They look like TSW blades without the centre caps if you ask me,

Good call...

..Did you used to read Max Power by any chance?

No, no, no

I did read fast car in the late 80’s early 90’s before it turned into max power 2 though.

They were very much the wheel of choice for the Halfords set from the mid nineties on.
