Wait a minute....let me get this straight.......I have a Porsche TT, and it's not stock. I like to mod my cars.....when I mod my cars......I am pretty much trying to complete a vision of what the perfect example of whichever car I am modifying might be.....In MY opinion.....So lets see....so now my TT has aprox $40,000 in modifications including 19" Champions, but I must be a poser because I don't care for the stock wheels......huh?


I was tracking my car at Thunderhill Raceway in Nor Cal last week..........there was a stock 996TT there as well...my brother was timing us informally and found that I was averaging about 10 SECONDS A LAP FASTER THAN HIM...........Huh? Wait a minute....that's impossible...I am a poser!! How could this be? Surely he had the better handling car because he had the stock wheels!

Oh yeah,,,,,,that's right, I must have had better skills than the other guy. Right? Yeah, and if I had been running 18's...maybe I would have been 11 seconds faster......

You should really rethink your attitude.....you remind me of one of those kids in a riced out nissan who thinks they know everything......

Also, I don't know of a SINGLE person who would look at my 19's and call them BLING.......get real.........

LOL Vince, she's a special lady friend of my brother, she umm, does some dancing

 

Haha i loved and still love that M3 man, it was insane, flat out! But im loving the turbo, its nutty fast with reliability, get in and go.. Get's so much more attention than the M3 as well, blah its very different, love both but thanks

Hah thanks Alex, time to throw me some turbo's so i can get up to the extra speed to make up for the looks

LOL very cool man, im loving this look honestly, hope all is well

Thanks man, much appreciated!

Thankyou, RPM Racing Inc. in Hicksville did it!!

Ahh i see what you mean, hmm. It seems over some parts of the body you can get a silvery color, not always charcoal, but i dont know, oh well!

 

Now you need some power LOL

 

LOL thanks Mark

 

Your TT looks badass, congrats Marin!

 

Chris, just trying to say how I prefer ill's current look Glad you are fast at the track.
Perhaps check out my first sentence in the previous message. I wasn't talking about all these wonderful cars in the forum (like yours) which have a lot of performance modifications and the owners (like you) are real enthusiasts and can really drive their cars fast. The cars at the 6speedonline are amazing and rare.
I was stating how I feel about an average guy who takes his stock Turbo to a shop to get some 19"s versus an average guy I see with aftermarket 18"s.
But maybe I'm just all wrong because the country where I live has like 12 996 Turbos...

Perhaps I should get real if no one looks your 19"'s and call them BLING. But honestly, the tire profile is something like a 25...

I would like to have a 19" street set. Ray's black Cargraphics are nice...we'll see. But I keep my humble opinion: a RoW-spec Turbo with 19" wheels doesn't look good. A modded car with nice 18" wheels (like ill's) does look good. A modded car with good 19" wheels (BBS, Kinesis, Cargraphic etc.) does the trick too of course!!

 

Car looks good but I'm not feeling those wheels. Maybe you should keep those for track/foul season and consider something a bit brighter and more open to show off the big reds. Unique-looking so I'll keep an eye for you on the roads of LI. Keep up the enjoyment!

 

My heart was about to crash, iLLM3!
Stunning beast...well done with it...

 

Haha thankyou very much guys, wheels arent everyone's taste but must be seen in person, doesnt look as cluttered or dark, thankyou again guys

 

i love dark wheels...oem or not....the pick with the no idling sign is awesome!!!

 

Sweet....love the look

 

congrats on "finally" getting some mods to that thing. but in typical Martin fashion. one day shes stock and a few days later after it comes outta the shop and its got a nice blast of mods.

congrats man, keep up the good work. your wheels arrive yet?

 

Damn ILL! The transformation has begun indeed!

are you using 15mm spacers? do you think 18 or 21s will fit in back?

 

Thanks man, much appreciated Why are you selling your car BTW??

Thanks, still want your M3

Thanks Johnnn, damm coming out of the woodwork for a compliment, i'll take it jkjk! Yea im just taking it easy, trying to do stuff quick but not all at once so i get bored of the car, also planning out and toying with different setups, i want to do it aggressive but still clean, dont want to ruin the appearance so we'll see, wheels should be here shortly and got a few other things coming

Hope all is well John, hope to see you in your new car shortly, then guess what, that's my next gradual step after i drool all over it

Thanks buddy lol, 15mm front and rear, honestly 18 would be perfect im sure of, but no more!!
