so baskins meet for this week are we doing it tomorrow or on NYE? As previously discussed our place is open for new years if you wanna do ice cream n then get wasted n play pool? Just let us know if anyone is interested n what you want to drink. Our beer supplies have taken a hit over xmas so it will be mostly spirits lol.

f**kers get your act together n tell us what's going on!

wow this thread is active!

anyway, yes tris that is def me in my pimp hat, rode shotgun with seb on the cruise, nice car when it holds boost, only blew that cooler pipe 2 times when i was in the car, both times i burnt my hand attempting to replace the pipe. 1.2 bar then pop!

yer its true thats version 2 of his car, the old one had a tear in the firewall so he reshelled it then spent heaps of time on ebay buying dodgy shit and waiting heaps of time for his turbo to be rebuilt.

But yer long time coming, nice car though, little rough around the edges but still nice.

As for me, i have been away again, had to swim my skyline through 30cm of water today on dirt road, so glade its been raised 3cm just had that extra bit of ride height i needed to get through it alive.

so guys im thinking about geting new rims for the GTR sometime soon, bit confused over what i should get, origninally wanted XD9s but considering other options as well,

after lookin at these pics i think white XD9s would look awesome on my gtr in 18x10 + 18 offset

but also seirously considering ROTA GRID DRIFT in white 18x10 + 15, i think theyr the ones which look like the TE37s

as compared to the ROTA GTR's which look like the LMGT4's

what do guys think? i think the price difference is a couple of hundred , will probably be lookin at 3200 for the works and 2700 for the ROTA GRIDS with Falken 18/265's all round .

What do you guys reckon, car will also be getting the Bilstein Suspension Kit that Dan @ ERD sells, and the one i thnk Colin has,

any feedback would be appreciated,

Cheers

I on the other hand think the XD9's look fantastic, especially white rims with your purple skyline.

Not a big fan of rota, and especially since the price is so similar, may as well go for the real thing

Not a huge fan of multi spokes on 33s. I think the 5 or 6 spokes look better. still can't go wrong with works lol.

+1. 33 are FAT. They dont suit multi spokes at all. Unless you really love the rims so much, else I wouldnt recommend them at all.

I actually quite like the multi-spoke look!

Holy crap, that would have been an interesting ride

Yeah I wouldn't buy Rotas myself but not because of all those shitty pics on the net. You will find the majority of those pics are after a car has had a bad off on the track or something like that so not the best thing to look at. They will be fine for daily driving as long as you can live with having fake rims :down:

    • I know people cry at the price of the Getrag 12-14k for a conversion now, but it really is a nice mid point. Not going to get change from 10k on a gearset installed.  $30k++ for sequential.   I know you run the risk of a damaged used one and parts are hard to get but as a street car gearbox its really hard to beat. If you enjoy a more traditional manual, its the choice no question.
