Bit more work has been done now.

Spent a bit of time faffing about figuring out tyres and rims, had a 15x10 -26 and a mates 16" BBS RS centre with a 2" lip to play with, decided Ill go the BBS RS rebuild and re lip them to proper sizes, managed to pick up a set of 4 BBS RS for under $500 with damaged outer lips (just rash not bent) so im just waiting for them to come in a few months. My centres will vary slightly from my mates ones but using a string line to get an idea of what would be flush we are looking at a 5-5.5" rear outer lip and a 4" front outer lip, so that should keep the wheel whores happy.

Cage is well on its way, no longer just tacked but for the most part is now welded together. Fab should be finished in a week or 2.

The pics are from 2 different days so sorry there are quite a few of them, uni took up a bunch of time so i couldn't post them earlier.

Rims arrived the other day, massive amounts of joy that they clear 4 pot R33 calipers with no spacers needed! Just waiting on the exhaust and tailshaft then we paint and wire/plumb it up.

They are CBY flares, got them off a member here, Vic guy worked in a panel shop had a TRD ae86 replica (all painted up red and white), I believe he moved though.
