Yeh thanks guys :laugh:

that was my cheap rim upgrade. heh

currently in the process of saving for some real wheels. a set of white or black centred Meisters or Professors with some chrome dish would be nice :laugh: so expensive though :happy:

Well given the above, i think you are an appropriate person to ask the following:

The Wheels I want no longer come in the finish i want, instead only flat silver. I was thinking of buying the flat silver ones and getting them painted or powder coated. But i really dont want it to look bad. When your are spending over $2k on something you want it to look good. Do you think painted wheels are likely to chip or deteriorate??

Umm, Well mine were sprayed with a 20 dollar spray can :happy:

I'm not sure how much it costs to get wheels powder coated. But i was under the impression it was about 50 bucks a wheel... I wasn't willing to spend 200 dollars on my stockies.. Where as if i had 2 thousand dollar wheels. theres no way i would want to wreck them with a 20 dollar spray can.. I would defiantely get them powder coated. I have a mate with white powder coated wheels and they look awesome.

But that said, mine havent chipped or anything yet. Pretty surprised at how nice the finish ended up actually.

    • Agreed, and in particular the earth strap that should go from the subframe to the chassis but it often broken or left off. There is a section in the R32 workshop manual you can follow for troubleshooting if you don't see anything suspicious, and depending where you are (there is no location on your user profile) you should be able to get your hands on a second hand replacement unit still if needed
    • Yeah they mention as a R34 for 2.5 Turbo...but then again thos "small" were also for R34 by that different site. But i look into it and that 310mm EBC is for R34 GTT. And by those you linked the specs are the same 🙂    EDIT: I found these on one site here: DBA 4000 series T3 DBA42304S They are 310mm...and it says are for R34GTT...are there good? EDIT2: ok they have pads too.  What "color" should i get for street use? I dont want/need some noisy ones...(and if they are not that dusty that is good too)
    • Yeah, shame. Maybe  driver's carpet is available 🙏. I am waiting for both amayama and nangun to confirm.
    • Probably. I take it that they are also mentioned to be for R34 Skyline? For example.... RDA has that part as RDA7957. I have the dimpled and slotted version of that on my car https://www.ebay.com.au/itm/285518478694?srsltid=AfmBOopKxMuAFpsxZJdB1cam4D5RAj1f9yJyOttPZLAwXVNCOiwlhrIy This is DBA's top one piece equivalent https://www.ebay.com.au/itm/364246686631?srsltid=AfmBOorbb0XHQgqTvZLgQPhg70nqJtGvdojKnugum3O2LFSr2h-obp8D  
    • Ok i will get those 310mm. I found one but on a different site. This is the description on those...is it ok? Technical parameters: - Axle: front. - Disc type: ventilated. - Number of holes: 5. - Disc diameter: 310mm. - Total height with center: 54mm. - Thickness (new/min.): 30/28mm. - Designed for brake calipers manufacturer: Sumitomo.
