I ll more safe if I have porsche wheels !!!, but BBS LM in 17" have 10mm offset

not good for my bus, and I didn t want to fit 18" wheel, perhaps a set of RH turbo twist in 17 ...

Very nice ride!
BTW I have a set of genuine BBS LM 7,5x17 ET38 5x112 all around. Thinking of selling them..let me know if you are interested.

OK, just in case if you are not happy with your offset, or want original LMs.
BTW what is that gold color yoou are using? It looks like genuine BBS gold, very nice ;)

original LM in 5 x 130 and 7,5 x17" have an offet 15mm can fit on my bus If I want to fit real LM with no adapter, I need 18" ones, too hight for me, prefer 17". In the futur perhaps I ll need to remove the adapter and fit 5 x 130 wheels. mine at this moment,are in 5 x 112 ET 45.
BBS sale the real paint on their website, I used Volvo maya gold paint

Very nice bay! Great details! Must be fun to drive!

rennsport May 28th 2012 02:34

thanks
It s really fun to see the face of the T5 drivers when I passed them on the highway at 180 km/h :D

I do some mods on the Martin Bott oil sump, a welded bung for the oil temp sensor and a oil control baffle ( the oil light is on when I make big brake :rolleyes:) and modify the clutch pedal and rebuilt the axles ( changing the CV boots )

I found an error with my throttle cable, I accelerated just at the middle :D


repare now and go faster !!! Go to 105 mph with the 4th gear , and after past the 5th, the speed go back to 99 , I need a road slightly in descent to went to 112 mph.I can t test the max speed for the moment

with the garmin gps , I ve test the speed, 0/60mph in 8,5 seconds just good with my little 2,5l non turbo :smt023

So the police take me my driving license for 2 months...too speed :smt018

Waiting is too long....

that really is a good looking bus! great work!

rennsport June 16th 2012 11:12

thanks

I can 't fit the Kamei or I need a smaller one, Now with my friend Low ( Lowelding workshop) we are on a brainstorming about the assisted steering , we want to create a plug and play kit for buses....

I ll change the exhaust , the mine is too small ( good for a EJ20 or EJ22 n/a)
fit the first one i have but change the muffler...

I m waiting for my carbon parts for the engine , looks good ...I ll can sell them for all subaru EJ turbo or not ( will show you here after)

;)
