Ahh, got it Just had a quick look and it seems like some of them had 4 stud but some 5?

There sw96 teg wheels, thats the 4 stud ones.. the straight spoke ones are 5 stud.. tegiwaimports.com sell copys of them

yeh there just dc2 wheels, all the 4 spoke ones are 4x114.3 same as swift i think they were on integras till 1996 i think the tyres are 195/55/15 im going to get some 3mm wheel spaces though because they slightly touch the inside of the inner arch

Im going to try and get a midwing and i want to have ago at making my own spoiler, i want the stock one but slighly longer only by a few cm's and more of a angle upwards

them wheels need like 15mm spacers to sit proper on a swift longer studs are needed really

steve

haha yeh i know thats why i am only going to use a 3mm spacer for now

Nah, i reckon they look good as is! JDOG, get some pics up at diffrent angels, but from that pic they look sweet!

The gti hub centre doesent look like it has alot of room on it so whats the max spacer that could be used to still leave enough room for the wheel to still be sitting on the hub centre?

Il take some on the weekend after i fitted my new disks and number plates

Wanting these pics

I forgot lol, il do it next sat

Ohh you tease

I wanted to get my car through a mot next friday but iv ran into a fucking problem thats pissed me right off, the shell is a 1996 gls so it has to have a shitty catalytic converter, for this to even work properly I need a 02 sensor etc but iv used phase 1 engine loom and ecu which doesnt use a 02 sensor so im pretty fucked now as what to do, iv got 3 exhaust systems none of them have a cat either Anyone on here know of anywhere that does dodgy mot's just for the cat thing iv replaced everything that the car could possibly fail on

just take it sumwhere dodgey in bristol and pay another £20, 1 of ur m8s must know sumwhere lol

Can you buy a cheap shit used cat with a big enough inlet and outlet, gut it and slide it over your exhaust and clamp it in place or weld it in place so it looks like you have a cat?

haha but it wont pass emmisions then surely

Depends on what your emissions are like, the "cat" certainly won't be doing anything, but of your engines running sweet it might still pass.

they can use another car to get the reading for the print out

You could bung a garage a beer token and ask them to check your emissions to see if it would pass.

I dont think it would ever pass as the ecu and stuff iv used is from a 1990 swift so emmisions didnt even matter for that car, but because of my shell age the cars emmisions are ment to be very clean

ive already told you, tell them the engine is from a pre 92 gti and they will do the emissions test to that engine which doesnt need a cat

I did that they said it doesnt matter its what the shell is that the emmisions go by

i dont see why a garage say they wouldnt want to loose there license, its only emissions ur not goin to get pulled and ur emissions checked.

haha It doesnt really matter now change of plan going to use one of my spare exhausts and get like 10 cats put on it for mot's

Glad you have a plan but........

I reckon you should try another garage! Sounds like a bunch amateurs.

A cars shell doesent produce any emmisions, its the bloody engine! The engine has to be emissions tested not the bodywork! If you have a pre 92 engine fitted no cat is required.

By the logic they are useing i could by a toyota prius, take out the motor and fit a 600bhp v12 and still pay no road tax

Oh, and where are those bloody pics Your car looks sweet MOT or not

haha i phoned 2 garages, my plan is to get the car on the road for about march/april now.

going to do another engine rebuild and i want to do a gearbox rebuild using a 4.4 final drive and get a lsd

so glad i have a proper job now
