  1. well, those bronze XD-9's would look tuff as hell. Simple. Id get them with a 245 (or 255 if you feel so inclined)/45 R18 tyre, and MAKE THEM FIT. Roll, flare, get them in, lower to suit. Just over the tyre is where I would want it to be. A gtr doesnt need any body mods, looks tuff as standard. Someone said 17 x 9 +22 was a good size, those 18 x 10 +18's will only stick out 17mm forther, which can be cured by a simple roll and slight flare. Depending on where the x9 +22's sit of course. What do you have on there ATM, as in size/width offset? Give me that info and I can tell you exactly where those XD-9's will sit. A photo would help too.
  2. go a 235 on a 9 inch rim. Balloon tyres are not cool. They feel spongey and can have movement/unsettling feeling if they have soft sidewalls (Usually found on cheap as tyres) High performance tyres usually have stiff sidewalls and arent noticed as much) Minimal if any stretch on a 235, nice flat sidewall. offset also depends on you view of legallity, car height, width wanted, face style. Make certain of what wheels you want, then you can figure out an offset to suit. Do you want to do any guard work? (Not that you need to on a GTR) do you want to roll the guard lip up? or flare the guard even more? do you want flush? Slightly mexican? slightly inside? As for those work XD-9's, what colour GTR do you have? 18 x 10 +18 is bollocksing tuff fitment, if you can pull it off. seems to me you kinda want something mean, not just "i want wheels"... as a side note, I know GTR's have problems running staggered tyre sizes/heights etc.... not 100% on what the actuall problems are. can wheel fitment aftect this at all?
  3. 050's do delam quickly. Im changing to Sumitomo HTZR - 2's asap, because the adelaide tyrepower team get hookups with them. Im only using the RA-1's because I bought them for a previous car LOL. I stillw ant to use a semi up front, but will wait to see if I have any issues, and if so, see if they can be corrected by other ways first.
  4. Yeah, and you still owe me cash for it ya prick jks. I still reckon that's pretty dirty of her mate. I can understand being pissed. Keep your pimp hand strong brudda!
  5. If I shot my missus when I met her 5 years ago, Id be out of jail by now. Im all good, My missus helps pay for car shit so Im on a good wicket LOL to be perfectly honest, I would give up the car if it came down to it. There's more to life than pieces of metal, even though sometimes with me it doesnt seem like it.
  6. Sweet as LOL Oh, and Doms laser blew the water pump. Awesome stuff. Stoked we're starting at 5 all next week too.... be home by 2 oclock, straight into the beers I reckon.
  7. Yeah true. I run Pontenza RE050A's which are a step down from the RE-01R's.... Id run wider, but simply cant fit them under the guards. Ill also be running Toyo RA-1 semi comps under the front, but Im worried about more pronounced understeer. We'll see how shady 225's are. If I have to go wider, Ill go wider somehow.
  8. Ill reckon most people will pass. Double Demerits this weekend and the 5-0 will be out in force. Same as next weekend too. And bollocksing woot to finishing @ 11 on a long weekend!
  9. needs venetians and a metal sunvisor on the front LOL And a RAA badge.
  10. especially with the frozen coke stains on them....
  11. GTR's kicking the shit out of the V8's on the mountain. go down and rent VHS When a 50 cm tv was "big screen" All you can eat @ pizza hut
  12. SAU sponsors section.... Just jap Ive got in mind....
  13. Carbon Fibre Seat owns EBAY fibreglass special. And new seat owns Carbon seat. WIN WIN for me.
  14. Agreed. profec B is straight down from awesome town. Pity mines turned off ATM. 8psi for the win LOL.
  15. Yep. Skids. Big ones. And lots of em. And continually be thrashed like a $2 hanson road special. And when she breaks, RB25DE goes in. And that falcon is clean as!
  16. you own a 33. You're already like 35 hundredy billion steps in front of me. I dont even have IRS FFS! pity about the RB25 (Glares @ ryan )
  17. oh, and also almost ALL pintara's are under $1K (most are around $300 - $500), and even a decent S2 Skyline is still fetching $3K. a Decent S3 GXE like mine is good for $5-$6k.... Ti's even more, then when you start getting into the SVD's/Imports, the price goes up over $10K.... so yeah, grab a $500 pinny, and use the $4500 difference to make it stomp the shit out of a skyline LOL. Oh, and ryan - WEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! that's gonna be off the chizain fo shizzle. or something like that.
  18. Yeah getting them through Lawson.... This is the look im going for... getting all my chromework redone, painting in the original toyota off-white, same height as that on the 15's, tint, black window frames... Clean, streetable, tuff, old school, and still does skids. You want meshies? buy my BBS wheels!
  19. sorry, that was meant to be a tounge in cheek reply LOL... Skyline parts are cheap as chips anyways, and most people who buy a 31 end up dropping a 20/25/26 or a 30DET anyways, changing sus/brakes to aftermarket or S13 aftermarket, so why now use the cheapest shell you can?
  20. And the dry LOL.... RB30E power!
  21. Put your injectors in and tune it! Make some real grunt brudda! I wanna see 250 at the treadlies..... We both know it's well capable. Oh, I got home, opened my speeding fine, went out to work on the 31, decided it was too hot, and went back inside in front of the aircon where Ive been sitting on the couch drinking beers all arvo LOL.
  22. Why? Pinnies are cheap as chips.... Pinnys are good for owners of modded R31's to reshell with.... ie. me. If they get defected.... ie me if they get written off because they're track cars ie. me. and what you mean "might as well buy a skyline?" a R31 IS a skyline! (Albiet a old, boxy looking thing that rusts and usually has more kilometres than a model t ford)
  23. when did you turbo the corolla?
  24. whoops Hit the wrong button. yes. 25 spline.
