Its none of the above. Looking closely at it I have no idea what motor that would fit. It has the 3-4 cylinder gap, but its not 1JZ or 2JZ. The JZ's have 12 bolt holes, one on each side of the exhaust port, diagonally from each other. not to mention the ports are oval not round. but it...

wow, you must be pretty flexible! but seriously, what you do in the privacy of your own home is your business...:biglaugh:

ROFL...Tim thats priceless! And I saw the Blue Man Group on pbs not long ago. The how to be a rock star show. It was amazing. I love those guys. They are a truely original act.

^ LOL'd

Details please!

ya know what would be interesting Tim, is to get an underhood temp with the vent blocked off and with it open. Im guessing it makes a noticeable difference in temp under there. On a similiar note, I was putting my new Targa on and just happened to notice the heat coming out of my cowl with...

OK, well on to another topic for the moment. I was able to pick up a replacement Targa top. Mine leaked SOOOOO bad that I couldnt take it anymore, and I had already tried repeatedly to seal it. New one seems good so far. SO...I was sitting there looking at the old targa and thought, "now what...

taste like dogshit? obscure reference 101

agreed! and no Matt, I dont think you NEED pics with the targa off, but it might help. I mean the judges are gonna be seeing all these sweet topless rides and you may stick out looking like a hardtop.

^ and/or a different offset too.

OK, got more info on the wheels and it looks like they wont fit properly. Im not even sure the 9's will fit right. Specs on the wheels are: front 17x9, +24 offset, 5.94 backspacing rear 17x10.5, +27 offset, 6.56 backspacing so sadly look like I wont be getting these :cry: I guess I'll keep...

now see, no offence really...but I hate those wheels. I see mk3's all the time with wheels that have that kind of spoke. the one that makes a kind of 90* angle as it comes off the lip and sticks out in the center. Everyone has em. and in my humble opinion they dont flatter the car. And yes of...

That extra .5" makes that much difference? I still dont know what the offset is. Wont know until they open tomorrow.

Well crap, they only have these wheels in 9" or 10.5". I was hoping to have a nice staggered look, but I dont want em sticking out either. Might go 9's all around or keep lookin, I just loved the look of the deep dish wheels.

Of all the people who responded I take your advice the most seriously Lance, thanks. I'll take that into consideration, but these are sold as a package and as far as I can tell they dont offer a set with the widths you are talking about. I'll try to get ahold of someone there and see if I can...

Hey folks this is a bump for tte really, because I want to express how happy I am with the product. It was better than expected and I cant wait to paint it gloss black now! Its a real solid piece, the surfaces are great and I got it fast. Good Job tte! keep it up.

mmmmm..k...

Im double checking but I do believe they are +35 rear. I could get them in 17/9 all the way around but I just dont think that would look as good. Im prepared to roll the lip is need be. Anyone else running a 17/10.5 +35 offset with a 275 or 285? Anyone? Anyone? ...Bueler? ...Bueler?

Well, show me a better looking 17/9 - 17/10 deep dish wheel that I can get for less than $600 shipped and I'll take a look. Oh and Im thinking Mustang Wheels look better than my Hyundai Tiburon wheels ( shhhh...thats supposed to be a secret)

Well the same wheels are available in gloss black which would go with the theme...but I dont know if I like black wheels. here they are in black:
