    Whilst my car has the engine out, I’ve been wanting to change the bushes to solve the wandering feeling. I’ve heard S13 bushes will fit but found a set in the USA made by www.richochetpt.com part number N12.B-90 BLU. I had to measure mine as there is a thinner set. My old ones were in a state...

    Just had a spare alloy wheel refurbed but had to ditch the metric tyre as it had to be cut off. Probably been in there since new. Anyways, has anyone got an idea of a decent size tyre to fit? I believe it’s a 15” so maybe 205/50/15 ??? Cheers for your help.
