So I have narrowed down a plan for the 86.
I wanted a look that reflected the JDM 86 with watanabe style
The GT 86 is a bit bigger and when you look for RS Watanabe wheels. they simply can't fit a rocket bunny fender that is absolutely very very very wide.
The size and height of an 18 wheel leads itself to a relatively legal ride height.
Rotiform simply RIP OFF the bestg of Japan.
MLW is a Watanabe replica in a 1 piece construction. imsure about 10K by the time they land in OZ.

There is also the Rotiform Six that is basically the TE37.
So choice is 1 of 2.
One other person had this idea on the internet.
Size is ... wait for it.
5x100 18x9 Offset -20! with 225 stretched
5x100 18x10 Offset -53!!!! with 255 stretched.
Australia needs this compliance and an engineered modification for the track width increase.
Performance wise.
Everything in research points to a read final drive ratio change to 4.9 and a ecu flash.
For an understated low power machine that is fun on the backroads. thats about the only place left to enjoy performance cars on a daily basis.
Lets look forward to the next few years.
Nothing will happen quickly. Money is tight.
