is this your car?

Post by kona480 » Thu Nov 06, 2008 10:45 am

i found this picture of a car somewhere and was wondering if anyone owns it or knows who owns it?
i am wondering about the rims. are they 4 x 140 or is it a 4 stud conversion.
is there any mags for a stock brumby?

Looks like re-drilled MY hubs, 4-stud to me.

Nice resto job for sure!

i saw this car the other day in the flesh at my local servo. It has 4 stud wheels on it. Custom jobbies i think.

doubtful its still running my brakes tho. this is a very quick car running v3 sti gear i believe.

i dont understand all of this re drilling hubs. drilling puts a hole in it when you need a stud sticking out for the wheel to go on. what is everyone talking about?

That Brumby is owned by a friend of mine, his name is Daniel. He has built and shoehorned a really nice (show stopper) EJ20T. It used to have a manual trans with a RWD centre hub but he kept braking gearboxes, on the drag strip :( so now he built himself a FULLY modified EAT box, along the lines of the Rigoli Boys auto boxes ;)

But getting to the question about his stud pattern... It's a 4x100 because the choice of rims is a lot bigger and he likes his cars to look the goods :cool:

I would like him to join and come on a cruise with us, so you can all see the Brat but he's not the computer type so I can see I'll be roped into making up his thread.. lol

Yeh... not too original :D but I know what you mean ;)

He loves his unique cars... I got to know him well after he brought my Hilux Surf (Big Surf). I'd fitted a Soarer 4ltr V8 behind the manual trans, big job as they never came out manual.. not less the fact that the Diesel Surf was not really designed to have the Alloy V8 into it :p but he loved it so much that he had to buy it for his missus Carly.
