Could anyone point me at an underside pic of the S?

Probably not exactly what you had in mind Colin, but several of these show the underside quite nicely

Ian, where did you get the shots?
Any idea on the story behind the crash, or do you need to be able to understand a foreign language to know?

A very extreme way to get the inner wheel arch out to change those main beams!!

Thanks for posting these pics Ian, I saw the video clip a couple of weeks ago showing the car leave the road and wondered how it ended up. That sure is a testiment to the roll bars on the S!

Not an HKS, the rear boxes are angled too much.

I aquired them about a year ago - the accident involved an S2ki member on a group drive in California IIRC.

There was a huge stink on the bbs at the time about someone posting the video clip on the internet.

Basically, the guy unbalanced the car by dabing the brakes whilst cornering and lost the back end. He left the road and ended up here. No serious injury, just dented pride I think.

I am assuming this is all ancient history and no one is going to object to these pictures being posted.

I don't know about the spoon. The only pics I could find had five spokes.

I think they are the ones I've been thinking about getting .
Volk TE-37.
The best pictures I could find on the web.
Scroll to the bottom.

Shame about the car though.
