I think if you went the coupe or ute route you would go the lowered clean look with the lowered 16inch wheel look, but no flares and spoilers, just original clean lines with the chrome trimmings. But as ca18detman stated if you went the sedan or wagon route you would go the poo brown colour with all original retrimmed interior and dished 13inch steel wheels with datsun hubcaps of the same era. Also I forgot the blind on the back window. All this with 400hp under the hood and stop at the lights next to a wrx and laugh when you watch his face when he is looking at your tailights...

Finding whitewalls shouldn't be a problem since many old cars had them in sizes greater than 165. A friend of mine had a Chrysler Centura with white walls, they were around 205 by 14in. which would be enough.
AND yes i agree the sleeper look is the way to go. Not only for original style, but also cops will have a field day with u regardless of whether or not u have been through the pits and passed.
A friend of mine was threatened to be defected for have a "larger than normal" brake master cylinder!!! IT WAS ####ING STANDARD!

Go with the "sleeper" look ... the stock look. Keep those big tires tucked under the stock fenders/guards. This keeps attention away from your car, but the performance will speak for itself when called upon. As they say, "speak softly and carry a big stick".

That's what I'd do ...

If you really want to avoid attention ... paint it white. Yes, nice un-inspringing, non-exciting white. The number one color for new cars in the US in 2000.

It sure was fun in my light blue 1200 sedan with the turbo engine to kick ass on Chevy 305 Camaros and Monte Carlos with a very stock looking car. The only things that were not stock looking were larger tires/aluminum wheels and the 3" twin exhaust sticking out the rear. The sound was a dead give away though. It sounded more like an Indy car than an econobox.

I will do fender flares and lower MS VI before I paint it but I plan on doing MS VII as stock as possible but 185 tires are a must.
