1JZ E30 Vert Build Thread with Pastry filled wheels

@Earl Are you sure your not missing the plastic? They attach to the factory holes. I think you can run a plate with and without them.

I have no clue as to what you're referring to as none of your photobucket links work for me=/ I have the OEM inserts and brand new OEM hardware

Well just for you I will go back through and change all teh images I ever posted with Photobucket. *PS all of mine work

[Earl]

I mean they all work except for that new one that you posted lol

[P_Roloff]

I believe you have to go and clear your browser cache and refresh the page before it'll work for images that you've already tried to view.

[Earl]

I did that

I started making myself "Eclair" decals for my wheels... Besides that nothing has happened besides a car wash.

Some pictures of my car at Eurowerks have been popping up in my inbox. I figured I should share.

Probably the best e30 vert ever , great photos! What is the shiny object next to it? Looks like some sort of beetle kit car

It was a scratch built car that looks mostly like a porsche but it has other influences of the era. It is pretty neat but oddly shaped aswell.

Its a hand built car that uses a VW aircooler motor. "The Runge FF007" built by Runge Cars. I am not really a fan of the shape, but the amount of work and time that has went into it is amazing. Chris Runge has made a few others prior to this one which look better in my opinion. Crazy fact is that he has sold them for roughly $150k each.

Started finally really working on this. I have a massive list, and the more I look at it, the more I realize is missing. So far I have new window seals that I ordered and now realized I need the other half of them too. I pulled the the seats out of the interior for a nice deep cleaning, I plan on taking dimensions of the interior panels so I can start to figure out what I want to do for designs and material. I also pulled the center console as I will be making a cup holder and I want to run a headless stereo (bluetooth amp) 

Here is the other bad seal

and the naked interior

The carpet is not clean here, but It came very clean surprisingly

I plan on adding cup holders to the door panels, and to the center console but integrating them. Similar to this BUT NOT this:

Interested in the bluetooth amp. Something id like to do as well

Bought another set of wheels. They should be getting delivered via friend in the next day or two. I will need to refinish them and I didn't really need another set, but I couldnt pass up a good deal on a rare set of wheels.

They are Crenshaw Classics and I have no idea what the specs are yet, but my guess is 16x9.5 or 16x10 et of something insanely high.

Actual pics of the wheels:

And a pic for reference:

[YoungCR]

What are you going to refinish them as?

[B C]

I'd rock a set of those in gunmetal
