I hope you don't mean rex as in WRX, cos i can tell you now they use a 5x100 stud pattern, and they wouldn't fit a U12.

Post by: Sheldon on Dec 27, 2004, 12:08AM
yeh thats true it is hard
Title: Re: got my mags yesterday!!!
Post by: timmy on Dec 27, 2004, 12:09AM
after riding in my mates vk with EXTREMELY SPORTY suspension.. i can safely say, suspension changes the feel of the car completely and even if you car isnt the fastest it will feel awsome to drive with nice suspension. if your after a nicer exhaust note in the meantime and a 'slight' power increase. just grab a pod filter.

Title: Re: got my mags yesterday!!!
Post by: Sheldon on Dec 27, 2004, 12:30AM
yeh does but wat do you reckon if say you got the high flow panel and just took off the old intake pipe and put on a a bigger pipe to a new location? also increase the airbox hole to match the new piping
Title: Re: got my mags yesterday!!!
Post by: timmy on Dec 27, 2004, 12:37AM
that would be an effective solution  :)

but yes.. back on topic...nice wheels bro
Title: Re: got my mags yesterday!!!
Post by: Sheldon on Dec 27, 2004, 12:38AM
sorry i shouldnt really be posting that in here lol but its wat i might do anyway with my intake
Title: Re: got my mags yesterday!!!
Post by: daymo on Dec 27, 2004, 07:28AM

I know its a different car completely but thats exactly what i did with the intake in my magna. Made a very nice improvement for about $30 on top of the cost of the k&n panel. Got 0.25 seconds off my 1/4 mile time too  :)

So might be an option for those who couldnt be fucked putting a pod in.


Anyways back on topic, that looks really really nice mate! lower it and she'll be perfect  ;)
