The only problem I see with those rims though is that I will be running a non-staggered setup. I'm not sure if that's a good thing, handling wise.

I don't know why you would want anything else

if you really want non staggered you can non stagger up the tires a bit and spacer on the back tire.

Chris, I got those rims. Woohoo. I think I will run 255's for the front, and 275's for the rear. Maybe. I might just go non-staggered for the sake of rotating them.

Now the next question, do I keep the car Silverstone with the blue rims, or do I go different.

Put me down for a +2. My only concern is if I get my car tuned before we go. I may also have a buddy in for a +2 with his Silvia

Ya we never made the poker run, not too mention there were roads that we never even hit. Which we will this time. Don't forget your banjo's.

wow thats sweet. I would leave your car the same color. get the rims painted down the road if you get tired of them.

a complete repaint a different color is too much of a pain in the a$$ and not worth the $ unless the car is already completely apart IMO.

My thoughts also, I'm going to leave it the same color. Who knows, I might just pick up the Cusco roll cage to match the rims. LOL

So as it stands now, for our cottage, it will be Myself, Yourself(Chris) Nick and passenger. There's 2 spots in our cottage. So Nick if your buddy and his passenger decide that there in, great if not there's 2 spots available in our cottage. I'm leaving those two spots open for you Nick, seeing that you have senority. LOL

As for the others that are going, let me know for sure. That way I can phone the resort and try and book cottages together. If I have a head count, it would be easier to set up accomodations.

Yes we do have lots of time, but this event seems to get bigger every year so availability will be scarce as we approach. Not too mention there is other people staying there besides the S2000 gang.

I'll get an answer from my buddy by the end of this coming week. Now I'm looking forward to this more than last year. I remember saying last year I was going to have a SC before I went back there. Didn't think it was gonig to be so soon.

I want to go again this year if I get my car finished as well. What a blast it was last year! I've parted with my stock suspension in favour of some PSS9's and the stock brakes for the T1R BBK..... plus I'll be running a lot more power when I get the turbo kit on and running..... Should be twice as fun My only concern will be tuning as well.

What type of fuel management are you running Nick?

Who are you getting to do the tuning?

Ian
