Wonder what type of rear braking system is being used. Those rotors are huge!

It's hard to see, but they look like Z32 rear brakes. The rear rotors are a little over 11", so pretty good size, especially since most of us are used to seeing stock brakes, heh.

Ontopic: Wow, FN's look really good polished out. It helps that the picture shows one of the better fitments for the S14, though.

hey team rootbear, im curious. Whats up with the front bumper on the pic?:confused:

[SoSideways]

^ He doesn't have his bumper on in the pic.

the z32 rear rotors are actually a tad bigger than the fronts, which in relation is massive for rears...

ive always wanted to buy some FN01Rs and SBC/chome them...but for the price of the wheels and custom finish, im already in volk/work/ssr/advan territory...unfortunately, it will never happen so ill live vicariously through your cast counterpart...post some pics when you get them! and for the love of god, dont run the centercaps!

Usually not a big fan of highly polished items.

But those wheels don't look half bad.

[gotta240]

so can those be done yourself? If not, how much do shops usually charge?!

looks great.

You can do it yourself but I will be taking my wheels to a shop in el monte to do mine.. They should be back in about 10 days and $250.. I will post pics when I get them on!

[KA-T_240]

so are these rims offered in polished or do you have to buy and then polish

[sw20>>s14]

really? you cant already tell from the context clues or the squiggly lines called words? no, they do not come polished...

[KA-T_240]

aussie call up zander or albert and see what he can do. If anything. take some aircraft stripper to them. then apply polishing compound for a few hours.

looks good, you can really tell a difference just in the pics as to whether it was professionally done (yours) or home job (mine)

must go lower to show them off correctly though

+1 on the lowering.

However, I like your's better. I think it's because it's like a matte polished look instead of full out shiny shiny polished look, and I like that finish on the FNs better.

[gotta240]

if you don't mind, how much was it?


to everyone else... does anyone know if aircraft stripper affects alluminum in a negative way at all? i know that stuff is HARSH.

[slideshow240]

yes,....how much?

[mayco_86]

The price was $250 it says it up on top. Hey i think he should lower the car to. That shit looks like its ready to OFFROAD. But then what can you expect off a tall skinny white boy. HAHAHAHA!!!!

They were professionally done.. They look almost chrome at night, when cleaned.

I thought it was low enough, but now after you guys pointing it out, I will lower it in the next week or so..

Price was $250 and took about 10 days to finish at RAINBOW POLISHING in
el monte

Those look sick man, the front wheels almost make me think of 57max's.
