Hey Guys,

Just wondering whats the going trend in wheels for Lines @ the mo i tried to source a set of Advan RS and i think RGII's for my line but found the to be quite expensive (altough i new they would be but damn that much!!!)

Neway im going to be selling my 18" vault savanah's soon as im looking to upgrade to 19's or 20's...

My car is a Black 95 Gts-t

dont follow trends, get what you think looks good...as long as it isnt big chromies....i f'ing HATE big chromies lol, they LOOK LIKE PLASTIC !! most do anyway, there are a FEW exceptions...

First of all good choice on getting rid of the vaults haha, those rims and any other big chromies makes the line look cheap. Going bigger then 18s would kill the ride comfort and also your wallet for tyres. I would rather go for 18s but hey its your decision, if you rekon bigger is better ther go for it mate. Check out konig unknowns on the ozzytyres site they would look nice on a black line. Weighing around 7kg per rim but heard they are quite expensive.

19's DO NOT LOOK OUT OF PLACE on R33's.

But you will loose low end torque and top end power, get about 50km less per tank, and probably loose a little handling. Comfort is the SAME as 18's provided you get the same profile, ie:235/35/19.

19's are purely just for looks, everthing else stick with 18's :) That's why i have a spare set of 17's, for track, spirited cruises and dyno days.

I would stay away from 20's!

    • Working through possible solutions of converting my mechanical speedo.    Anyone know what type of speedo sensor the factory r34 gtr getrag has ? what the output is ? I assume its not a VSS and more a voltage like earlier speedo sensors ? Can an ECU read it ?  
    • roof rail delete used to be a thing, they were made locally for a while too
    • I can get more photos of it here soon and I plan to make a thread detailing the process. I received the car this way and it sorely needs refinishing. That is probably the most appealing photo of it. Up close it is fading, cracked, and needs to be re-glued. Depending on their condition I'm on the fence between refinishing or making a new set.  Another angle hiding the pimples and razor pumps  
    • According to this thread the RS4V with build plate RC40 comes with the R200 diff @ 4.083 ratio as well (mine has said RC40 denotation). We may need to check if the axle stubs are the same pattern as well. The auto subframes have longer axles. However I think yours being a later Series 2 as well, we should have the same bolt pattern for the diff stubs. Unless your upgraded rear also has upgraded axles. Either way, I would not be opposed to pulling the covers to check so I can inspect that  fancy rear core  Also I don't have HICAS. I don't believe that should change things but I hope the people here with heaps more experience than me can correct me if I'm wrong   Let me know if you want to attempt to make this work and I can get some pictures of mine from under the car. 
    • It's not that straightforward. For example I have had this code because my ignitor/power transistor wires were unplugged. It knows something is wrong but has no idea what it means. If you want to actually diagnose this I recommend following the service manual flowchart for code 21. Ohm out the harness, coilpacks, inspect the ECU, etc. And again, it's entirely possible for there to be no problem at all but if you're running a different coilpack it'll trigger the code because it doesn't like what it sees.
