I doubt I will as I would want 2 sets off wheels and couldn't afford to buy 2 new sets, if I use spacers to space the new rear wheels out I would still be able to use the original dimma wheels, the split rims and the new wheels with out too much messing around |

Still not 100% sure what wheels yet and im a long way off from needing any, iv got a long list of jobs before I start to rebuild the dimma and a shed load of parts that need powder coating, anodizing and platingNow that I has the mega boost engine for it im also looking at changing the rad and intercooler, I might use a 200sx rad or even an rs500 rad and cooler setup but will have to run an expansion tank with that setup The engine bay needs to look as mint as the rest of the car after all the hard work that has gone into the shell Sorry for a crap update but its out of my hands for a while still  |

Yup had a sneaky look while I was over and it looks awesome wish mine was a dimma . But then they wouldn't be anything special if everyone had one. Let me know when you've got that fuel pump and swirl pot for sale mate and how much your after. ________________________________________ Black power baby!

Done a little bit more on the Dimma over the last few weeks but not a great deal to be fair :-( Just to show how clean it looks inside   After spending a while with a tap and die I trail fitted the heat shields that I had powdercoated years ago   Trail fitted the engine bay loom, the brake lines and battery bulk head grommet   Cleaned up all the door rubbers and the bungs for the floor etc.  Everything is getting trail fitted so no doubt it will all have to come off again, this way I can work out what nuts,bolts and washers I need to have plated and which ones can be replaced with stainless items I took a van load of bits for powder coating yesterday so hopefully will have more bits to build up by the weekend |

Looks great, I would love the one in the for sale section but its too many pennies for me.Like your style with the exhaust sheilds I have done the same for my rallye What sort of money do you think you have put in it so far, don't have to answer if you don't want, just seeing what it costs.
