    in Cosmetic, Styling & Respray

    Posted

    hey

    Can everyone post their pictures of R32 GTR's (preferably gunmetal grey) with R34 GTR rims on them. Im thinking of getting some but want some more pics because they cost heaps !

    What does everyone think of R32 GTR's dumped with no wing and R34 GTR rims ?

    Thanks

    Nah! you don't wanna do that. 'cause then yours would look like mine (only lower and without a wing) lol!

    i've got a gunmetal R32 GTR with R34 rims and i reckon it looks awesome eh... personal tastes though.

    Hi all,

    I bought this car for daily duties but it decided it doesn't really feel like doing them anymore...

    The car stalled one morning and wouldn't restart. I don't know what's wrong with it... it's possibly the distributor but i don't know.

    Basically though, i havn't got the time or the patience to get it going again, i just want to get rid of it (it's just a camry).

    The car is in great condition, there's a little rust on the drivers side A-pillar and a crack in the passenger side of the windscreen but other than that, clean and tidy throughout. it's got central locking and a cd player. Interior is clean as throughout. huge boot!

    The car is rego'd till the end of Aug so if you get it going again soon you'll be laughing for rego (pink slip, rego and green slip as per norm)...

    Price is $600 ono

    these are still selling for about 2-2.5K so it's a good buy.

    easy ways of making my exhaust less loud

    i think Silencers are illegal if they are not welded on

    Never heard that before... :confused:

    those 2 things should do the trick fine man, it's only 10 db... aim for a 20db loss and you'll be right :rofl:

    just go to like auto one or super cheap or something and buy one of those cannons with a silencer in it (bout $100) then keep the silencer and either try return the canon or sell the cannon or throw it away :P

    you could get one of those bolt in silencer dics that sit just in the tip... or if you're good enough at the metal work, make one yourself...

    other than that, unbolt wherever you can down the system, pack the sucker with steel wool roll then either leave it there to burn off after or take it out after.

    hopw that helps man.

    I had a blue slip done with 2 pods exposed....

    car was already engineered that way but i dunno if that made a difference.

    ring around some inspection stations and see what THEY say :D

    so i should ring an engineer and ask if there is the possibility of legally putting a set of 19in rims on my car before considering it???

    i just want to get a nice set of alloys <---- i like the neat look I'm sick of the bling look!!!  

    might be a set of vaults up for sale soon check out the for sale section if interested

    sorry bout the hijack

    No you should look at the link to the vehicle standards bulletin posted earlier and see if your rims are ok to fit... as has been said a few times... just keep the overall rolling diametre the same (tyre + rim) and get an offset that keeps the wheel track the same as well (or as close to as possible) :rofl:

    wheel track is measured from the centre of one wheel to the centre of the opposite wheel. (it's all in that bulletin).

    so yeah, easy stuff man and it doesn't need engineering :(

    From my interpretation of the Vehicle Standard Information (bearing in mind that I'm not a lawyer), there's no limits to the diameter of your wheel.

    The VSI No. 9 (Guidelines for alternative wheels and tyres) states that your wheel track may not increase by more than 25mm. Your alternate wheel may not be more than 26mm wider than the factory rim without an engineering certificate. The outside diameter of your wheel and tyre combination can not be more than 15mm greater.

    This means if your OEM wheel is 13x4, you can legally run a 22x5 rim if you can get it under the wheelarch and find tyres with a low enough profile without needing them engineered. However, a 13x5.5 wheel requires an engineer's certificate.

    SPOT ON THE MONEY!!!!

    as far as the ADR's go it's got nothing to do with the rim height. it's the overall rolling diameter and wheel track they look at. no cutting the chassis or spacers or anything like that! simply, you can't increase the wheel track by more than 26mm and the rolling diametre by more than 15mm.

    solution: use wheel and tyre package to keep the diametre the same and use wheel offsets / rim widths to keep wheel track the same.

    there was possibly also something about having to have x amount of clearance from all suspensino components but i can't remember.
