i was able to barrow a digital camera to take a few pics ( thanks susy ).

notice the clearance at the rear thats with only the brakes offset and the wheel sizing

some more pics

the last few are of the courtesy of Lanner's great work.

the rims are 5Zigen a import styled company

17x7 ET 35
weights 15-17lbs
tires are yoko AVS ES 100 - 205 50 series

If i bring the camber down to zero I have no clearance problems with the trailing arms and get full turn. Actually on one side the steering box stops before it hits the lock stops.

Right now with about 1-2 deg of neg camber I have some issues with the shock tower it hits the tire.

This is all without the body sooo I don't know if it will still clear the same when that gets put on. Should though, except for the fenders those will need replacing, the front track increased a little bit more than the rear about 1/4 - 1/2 total, so I need a little less than 2 inch wider in the front and about 1" wider in the rear. But since can't find the front in that size will get the CCC 2.5 wider ones.

what do you think?

Looks sick....pics are a litle small, so it's kinda hard to make everything out, but it looks like RX7 brakes???? Let us know how it feels on the road once you get it all together!!!!

Definitly nice hub though. My extra cash I got that I was to buy my hubs with a week ago had to go to an emergency (seems those always pop-up when you're about to get things rolling, or have spare cash)....but it's definitly looking good Rip....

What is the bolt pattern?

its 5 x 4.5" or 5 x 114.3mm

Is that like a Acura bolt pattern or something? What would you find that pattern on?

actually quite a few cars, the big ones being the ford mustang, 300z, 240, maximas, Rx7s (of course), mpv, nsx, rsx, infinitis, eclispe, camry, supras, numerous dodges and chryslers.

so because of this the bolt pattern is pretty popular, among the jap import crowd. And because of the Rx7 brakes of course I stuck with this bolt pattern.

Also for those that want to know I have a really close to stock turnning radius, got in the street with the running bug and turned a circle measured and the did the same with the chassis, the difference was about a 1.5'

but dropped the camber to -1 deg and it seems to work out. I got about a 1/4" to 3/8" between the tire and the close suspension part( the shock tower). I totally clear the trailing arms, but again once the body is on I'll see how everything looks.
