I put mine on tonight, 18's with 265's out back and 235's up front, they look TOUGH. Now to get it lowered... Stay tuned for pics =D

Was at the servo checking the air and had some guys walk past and go 'check out that dish'. That makes you feel warm inside ^_^

Buy them, you won't regret it!

Yeah I'm looking at suspension and zorst now, suspension first though as 18's bumped up the ride height a little. I wont need FMIC, I only intend on 10psi and that'll be handled easily by a R34 GT-T Side Mount. Keep me posted =D

I'm fitting Bilstiens and king super lows in the next few weeks when I get around to it but I'd suggest you will be pushing shit uphill personally. The inner lip of the guard eats into available space considerably on the rear. Depends on rubber size too, 235's seem to be almost the limit up front, 265's squeeze in on the back (9.5inch wide out back).

Hope that helps.

hey Dan it looks like your rear drivers side wheel is gunmetal grey and the rest are shadow chrome. I had the same problem with my impuls but sent the wheel back to tempe and they replaced it with the right one free of charge. I've seen the same problem with several other cars with impuls.

Mint: This is a lighting issue. As the rears are so much deeper, they tend to look darker. (The apssenger side is exactley the same. In the right like they look even. I also bought these 2nd hand so won;t be able to have tempe o any swaps.

Jim: That looks like a hack job! I Hope someone is gonna edge that properly so it dosn't rust or slice open ya tyres!

Cheers

    • The team at OBD2 Australia are pretty good, shoot them an email and ask them. I've dealt with them before for work stuff. I'd be shocked if it didn't work, so long as Consult can activate the ABS. But you might need to use KLine for it which would be the stopper, as I don't think that piece does KLine comms.
    • Yeah and hence my ghetto way of slamming the brakes, get the ABS to cycle, rebleed seems to be a sensible workaround.
    • Hey! Happy to help. Nothing inherently wrong with the adapter, it's more so with Brett Collins himself. He gave me a lot of incorrect information when I was in contact with him and was extremely rude when I challenged him. He stated I could not use any aftermarket twin plate clutches except for his own, not to use the dush shield, bla bla bla and it was all BS.  Collins stated to cut roughly 14mm's off the housing, I took off 15mm to make room for the dust shield. I would confirm with whatever adapter manufacturer you're using. 
    • There's plenty of OEM steering arms that are bolted on. Not in the same fashion/orientation as that one, to be sure, but still. Examples of what I'm thinking of would use holes like the ones that have the downward facing studs on the GTR uprights (down the bottom end, under the driveshaft opening, near the lower balljoint) and bolt a steering arm on using only 2 bolts that would be somewhat similarly in shear as these you're complainig about. I reckon old Holdens did that, and I've never seen a broken one of those.
    • Let's be honest, most of the people designing parts like the above, aren't engineers. Sometimes they come from disciplines that gives them more qualitative feel for design than quantitive, however, plenty of them have just picked up a license to Fusion and started making things. And that's the honest part about the majority of these guys making parts like that, they don't have huge R&D teams and heaps of time or experience working out the numbers on it. Shit, most smaller teams that do have real engineers still roll with "yeah, it should be okay, and does the job, let's make them and just see"...   The smaller guys like KiwiCNC, aren't the likes of Bosch etc with proper engineering procedures, and oversights, and sign off. As such, it's why they can produce a product to market a lot quicker, but it always comes back to, question it all.   I'm still not a fan of that bolt on piece. Why not just machine it all in one go? With the right design it's possible. The only reason I can see is if they want different heights/length for the tie rod to bolt to. And if they have the cncs themselves,they can easily offer that exact feature, and just machine it all in one go.
