Hey what's up sir. Yeah, that's my car. I did go 5x114 lug pattern. The car has been off the road for a while so I can perform all the updates it needs to stay running lol.

Those are some rollers from my Mk3 Supra. I picked up some TE37's for the Alltrac, and I'll have them on soon.

I have not been very active on here with the updates, so I'll try to provide a little info. I took the car off the road to replace the shift cables, and install a ST205 transmission.. Next thing I know, I'm gutting the engine compartment, going E85 with an ECU master EMU, Wahlbro 450 pump, 3rd Gen exhaust manifold with a BB GT35... Those are just a few items...

I swapped to a 5x114 lug pattern using RAV4 front hubs and RX300 AWD rear hubs, using the Celica bearings. Then I installed ARP extended lugs. So now I have new wheel bearings in all 4 corners. This picture shows the Porsche Brembo calipers that I'm using with Subaru STI 326mm rotors. I purchased the kit on eBay from an ST185 owner.

I have it all bolted together now, so I'll provide more pictures later.

I have gone through a few wheel sets trying to decide what I want to run. I finally found my dream wheels, a set of staggered TE37's!! I had a set of Buddy Club wheels for a bit, then some Work Miesters, (which are for sale). The Miesters do not clear the BBK by the way, as the faces are both low disk.

I will provide more pictures soon when I see the car again. The car is at a shop in Phoenix so they can fabricate the custom downpipe, exhaust, and wastegate routing. I'm also using a larger 12x24 alloy heat exchanger for my W2A intercooler, and running a Mishimoto Radiator from an ST185. The front of the car at the core support needs to be modified in order for it to fit the 165.

This is pretty much what the unfinished car looks like right now..

WOW!! Loving the progress. 4th gen set up looking good. You built the bottom end as well? Similar set up to what I want to do with one of my ST165s going Gen 4. Do you have the ET of the wheels once you do the 5x114.3 pattern? Still debating on going 5x114.3 in my cars. (Too many Alltracs :| )
