Supra TT wheels, powdercoated gunmetal, will be installed next week

 

sounds like a good deal, nice pics man!

 

wow! purrrty!

Love the gunmetal Supra rims! Can't wait to see them installed

 

rims look great! so you were the one that got the rims done at Mag Masters right?

 

Yup, got them done at Mag Masters in Santa Ana, CA. Came out to $300 for all 4 and that includes a bit of cleaning up scuffs and curb rash. It took them longer than expected to do though, they said the first time they tried and the powdercoat blistered so they had to strip them and do it over. In the end, the wait was worth it since they look almost new now.

 

yeah, they always take longer than expected. I've been there more times than i can count. LOL. but it looks like it was well worth it. congrats!

 

Man those wheels are HOTT

 

Looking good Your car is identical to mine inside

 

ditto on the wheels. can't wait to see pics of it on your car

 

Nicely done, your car looks great. Can’t wait to see the completed package.

 

awesomeness by the way , what size resistors are those? 210 ohm? kinda hard to tell the colors

 

260-270?

 

Won't get long out of them that way for sure! They'll run way too hot, killing life expectancy big time. I run 680's in some rare instances and more normally a custom blend of 840's (two values paralleled). you'll get 85% of expected output but triple the life.

 

I tested them by running them for 3 days continuously and they did not heat up at all. I suppose if they fail I could just rebuild them, only cost about $5 for each set.

 

3 days < 3 years < 8 years. Just make sure to update the thread if they flicker. I'm banking on about 4 months since they are used very little.
