    I like it, however the wheels look like TechArt knockoffs. I still think Sportec is the best tuner...

    if you are really considering such a kit, money are not your first problem...but one problem is this: do you really need 120 more hp?!

    I quite hate them actually... black wheels on a white car = awesome, unfortunately the opposite isn't quite true.

    Yeah, I agree. Not working for me either. Just an ugly combination in general.

    Plus, imagine the brake dust on that?

    the Integra Type R used to have white rims, and i find it beautiful even in black, and even with brake dust on the rims...

    Yep, those:



    Perhaps if the Porsche used 5-spoke (well, 10 actually) wheels like the Integra Type-R it would look better than the multi-spoke racing wheels it has on. Just my two cents.
