Default What brown did for me yesterday..











So I finally have the wheels, but won't be able to get them on the car until Saturday morning... I think they're going to look awesome..

I also got the GMM ripshift installed on my GTO.. what a freakin PITA that was, I can't believe something as simple as a shifter could be such a bear to install... I had to take the DRIVER'S SEAT out and drop the tranny to get everything apart.. but man... talk about smooth, I love this shifter, it makes my GTO so much more fun to drive, and I NEVER miss 3rd gear any more, it just pops right in there perfectly every time.

The bad part is that now I want to mod my GTO I almost need to sell a car here so I can afford to mod the other two.

The reflection of the BPM in the chrome set against the wheel color is going to look real nice.

Regarding the shifter in your GTO I have to agree they are a major PIA to install. I did Jason's GTO on a lift in my garage and it took us something like two+ hours. Didn't have to remove the seat or tranny but we did lower it by removing the bracket in order to get in there and remove the nuts. I forget what kind he has but he had it shipped direct from Aus.

They're 17x9.5 all the way around. I had thought about going with 11's on the back, but it would have meant I had to buy another set of tires, and I just bought the M/T drag radials on there... I've already got wheels and tires coming out of my ***, so I didn't want two more sitting around waiting for someone to be interested in them.
