Car is in the paint shop still...went and bought the rims today. I like. $1000 with lugs/locks centercaps and got balanced..I think it will look good with the disk brakes all around

The 86 you see in the background is getting traded - thats the one we never got working
Im trading that 86 for a 90 LX hatch and these rims are going on the LX.
Don't think MAF was the problem, likely was the guy who put the cam, rockers and springs in my motor didnt install the shit right. Hes a good wrench to have but he knows the stock engine, not a performance guy.

Going to be a maroon-like color...I didn't pick that color but the car was originally a maroon and taking the motor out to paint the engine bay a different color wasnt an option, I think its going to look great anyhow...Ill get some pics of it as soon as I get it out of the paint shop with the wheels on it. Should be within the week
