Yeah. Have thought about these possiblities. But you still end up with a car that has *average* performance, nothing special. Plus, the 4age conversion has been done to death. Wouldn't be exciting to see a 4age in anything. But I do like the 4 bike carb idea. Looked into this many years ago for an old engine I had. Hence the name.

Ca18Det would be an ideal engine thats what i would do for cheap turbo twin cam etc, also be interesting to find out weather or not the u11 bluebird Ca18Det engine bolts upto the silvia rwd box without much pain coz the u11 bluebird engines sell for a hell of alot less then the s13 ca18det's etc i'd say they wouldnt be as tuned but who knows!

The 2nd ones would be mean if there were 4 of them, but sadly there are only 2. I'd love one for a spare rim but they are in Huntly, too far for me to go.

42 should be fine on its own. 38-42 is optimal gemini offset (so the aussies say)

But yeap, with 10mm you should be sweet. Just roll the guards a little and thats sorted. Buy my wheels. They will be way cooler.

But yeah, will flare out the guards if it's a problem, will look tough anyway Yeah but thats the thing with heaps of offset like you guys are using, it rubs on the inner guard not the outta. Meaning the only thing you can do to fix it is use spacers, which need to be certed now right? Its all good tho, an easy fix in the end.

Well, only way to tell if it's gonna rub is to get them on there. Will see when it's all together..
