At first I thought they were ISSForged Spyder but they're not. I think they're Interad. Aren't they the rims from the youtube video of the guy with the twin turbo...

I'm pretty sure you are correct. The original rears off that car (before the wide body) are still sitting at my friends shop. I can go look if needed. It looks like the turbo kit was removed from the car.

Custom Interad Turismo wheels with 2 missing bolts for extra weight reduction!

Can anyone comment on the twin turbo kit--impact on performance, impact on the engine, cost, etc.?

I am also presuming that it voids the warranty in total or part?

Does it void the warranty? Oh yeah. Considering your gonna pay 17,000 for a system that can't even be tuned properly its a joke. Nitrous is a way better/cheaper option..

He sold it and I think got a GTR. His name on here was CrazyMPG i think. His turbo kit and brembo BBK is still for sale on this forum.

Go for it guys, untuneable turbos and rims with missing bolts sounds like a spot on way to turn your $65k car in to a $5k car.

He sold the car to Lexus to buy a Cobra. Then got a normal car. He isn't crazympg, that's someone else. The car never ran right with that turbo kit, why he sold it. And probably why the kit was taken off.
