  1. Erm... would you really expect them to honour the warranty now?
  2. unless you can tune around it I guess. No point if you're running the stock ECU.
  3. End result is awesome Terry. Any pics of what they looked like when you got them? Before they were painted?
  4. All Type Crash, speak to Hayden.
  5. Not at all. I run 100 octane E10 in my NM35 Stagea, and used to run the 98 octane E10 in my old BMW. No issues at all. In fact the car seems to be running better than on standard 98. E85 is starting to become readily available to most people too, so you'll find a fair bit of info in the Forced Induction section on retuning. People are seeing good power gains going E85. More power, less emissions = win win!
  6. Do you mean how much boost? He said 16PSI. Not bad.
  7. Looked mental when I saw it, especially with the stretched tyres! BTW Found this: http://www.rimsntires.com/specs.jsp Great tool to actually see what's going on. Very easy since Alex posted the standard wheel specs. Thanks!
  8. Most aggressive I've seen are Jase's, which I think are 19x9.5+22. Too angry for my liking, and the camber on the rear! Thanks for the tip Alex. I'll go home and measure. Apparently 8.5+30 extends 34mm, which sounds fine. I can always try and test fit Saturday anyway. Wheels I'm looking at are a good price, but they're pretty beat up. Looking at buying them and running them with decent tyres for 12 months, then getting them cleaned up and powdercoated. Bronze CE28s, should look good I think, but better when I get them powdercoated black! My car isn't that low Jase! I don't know what you're talking about
  9. Well the 350Z Track wheels look ok, based on the pics Ironpaw has posted: So if the 8.5 is going to give me another 6mm that sounds fine. I don't need to fill the guards right up, and I don't really want them out the guards. Just wanted to make sure they'd clear, and try and get an idea of how the 18x8.5+30 would look compared to the 350Z 18x8+30, because I knew there were pics online of the 350Z wheels. Might give the guy a call and try and drop round and test fit on the weekend. Cheers for the help, PM sent.
  10. Aaron, check his sig... mountain bike gear! http://www.ribbed.com.au/
  11. Well does that mean 18x8+30 sits out as far as 18x8.5+30, but the 8.5 also sits wider on the inside?
  12. I kind of remember. Still getting my head around offset, does 8.5+22 sit further out than 8.5+30?
  13. Import monster/ streeter? On another note, Im looking at wheels at the moment. Im not happy with the flap in the sidewall I currently have on one, especially considering I have a drive to Melbourne coming up. Not replacing tyres on the 17s, rather move to 18s. Looking at either 350z track 18x8+30 or CE28S 18x8.5+30. Ive seen pics of the 350z track fitment and it looks good. Ive also seen people with 19x8.5+22 and it looks good. Would i be right in thinking 18x8.5+30 will be a good fit?
  14. I think in that kind of condition you'd probably get $17k even if you swapped the wheels and brakes back to stock.
  15. I'll talk to the bloke in the morning, since he told me he had a set on his NM35. If it ends up they don't fit, I'll be ordering a set of the SPC bolts if anyone else missed the first order?
  16. Here's the camber arms I was told would fit. Haven't been given a price but I'd expect them to be ~$150-200.
  17. Umm... The bolts mentioned at the start of the thread? I've got camber arms coming though.
  18. Looks the goods. Have you got a power ballpark you're expecting when its done? Is it going to be tuned on 98 or E85?
  19. Those aren't the eccentric ones Paul. I'm pretty sold on the eccentric ones so I can get a bit more caster.
  20. Those are for the radius rod by the looks of it, and i need them for the lower control arm.
  21. Ah so you're the one he's making the dump and mid pipe for. The catback system is fine. Mine has two mufflers now, because it was too loud and drony for my liking originally. Now its awesome, sounds awesome, and isn't too loud. I'd say just right. I haven't tried the Kakimoto/Blitz stuff though. Been in a car with the Nismo sports muffler, and open I didn't think it was that much quieter than mine. I'll measure the db at idle and let you know.
  22. Pretty sure this is what I was looking at, it was one of the control arm bushings I needed to replace: http://www.superpro.com.au/find-superpro-parts-for-my-vehicle/part?id=SPF3297K
  23. I've got the same one theo but my boost gauge doesnt go up high enough to measure properly. Def didn't get any big increase in power when I fitted it, which I'd probably expect from an extra 4 psi.
  24. Apparently. The toe arms don't fit but the guy I bought them off says he has the camber arms on his. Have to send the toe arms back first. Wait and see.
  25. Doing mine as soon as I've got everything ready. Have to send a set of toe arms back that don't fit and get the correct camber arms. White line do some similar that are cheaper but theyre not eccentric. Pedders quoted me $150 for the eccentric super pros and I thought thats what everyone was paying.
