Cheers guys! Really appreciate your comments, as CL has swayed me from generic wheels (which are still decent in my book) to save up that bit more and go for wheels to my own specifications (and I damn love it).
Besides painting the calipers and rotors (going for black) and fitting the old school Trust cat. back exhaust I've got sitting in my basement at the moment, I don't know really. I was planning on doing a D2S retrofit but nothing I do goes to plan so who knows 
The goal is to restore it so that it feels, smells and drives like brand new 
They were about $3600 landed with tyres. That's to Australia, mind you.
The fronts are 8.5" with 9.5" rears, +41mm offset all round. Tyres are Yokohama 235's up front and 265's rear. I know it's a very mild set up - I love the way some of the cars here on CL look with the aggressive wheel specs and I was planning to do the same however it would've been with the full AC kit etc. but it's just not practical in my situation (ridiculously steep driveway at home/work/school, bad roads and I love next to an industrial area where trucks are flinging up stones all the time... I'd cry if I messed up the kit too hehehhe).
Got influenced by one of the nicest!

Looking really good. How much did they run you?
What's the specs on the wheels and tires?
Very nice Trafficstar!
