So i've finally got my hands on some new wheels :D

Its Tsw Truxton 19's, width 8 in front and 9,5 on the rear

Now im thinknig of going with a GTR-wing painted in the color of the car, but with the wing-plan painted in the same darkgrey color as the lower part of the car, so what do you think? Should i go GTR-wing or not?

Heres a photo of how she looks now!

Cheers!

So you're going shopping for HKS, Trust, Recaro etc are ya :P

Nah the wheels look nice, they suit the car well!

Thx, hehe, well i've already got Recaro seats, HKS induction kit, HKS EVC III, HKS turbotimer, trust quickshift, nismo coilovers & springs, cusco powerbar and so on, so im in no hurry :D

Same two-tone paint scheme as mine, minus the shopping list stickers :)

What front grill is on your car? My front grill has the fins but I like your one better

If you go GTR wing get it same colour as the top, it might not look right if you get it the same colour as the bottom in my opinion.

Thx! I dont know what grill it is, came with the car, but heres a closeup, bad quality though. The thing about the wing was painting it in the same bright silver, except for the middle part, and painting that in the darkgrey color, might look odd though :)

Cheers!

I'm pretty sure it's a nismo factory option grill (me so jealous :P )

After I get my bodykit sorted I'll probably go with a Gtr wing too, do you mean you're getting the middle part with the stop light of the wing painted in dark grey? Even if it doesn't look quite right, at least it will look different & stand out from other R33's ;)

I wanna get a gtr wing in silver but I'll probably just paint the actual blade part of the wing to match the dark grey.

Will look awesome mate, I reckon your current gt wing is a bit too much (I cringe when I see them on Civics)

GTR wing is the way to go, looks hot & less attention from the police compared to gt wing

THX all!

Yea the GT-Wing does give the police something to complain about, had one of those encounters with a 2.5 meter tall policeman yelling in my face that the wing was a high-risk thing, where ppl could get cough and dragged by the car.. Or if i hit someone he would fly over the roof and get cought and get even more hurt.

I dont know whats best, flying over the car and get cought in the wing, OR flying over the car (would probably have sustained severe injury just getting hit by the car) and straight down in the pavement...

Anyways, i do not have a GTR-badge on the boot, cant say posing is my favourite way to go... :)

    • Yeh I think i'll message an old contact i had for ages that manages his own tyre shop now.. n tell him what i want n work with him before ordering..  Got this 17x9 +30 Driftteks on 245/45/17 PSR Drag Radials on the rear.. They fit well - for your reference in future - Rear guards  have been lipped in & minimal to non flaring of the rear Gaurds.    
    • If only it were that easy! I also needed to remove seats, shocks, brake calipers, send my car through a fence, and use measuring and ended up guessing because I didn't remove seats, shocks and brake calipers. It can be hard sometimes Can be a little more complex than 'just measure' if you want to truly measure the entire wheel through all of it's suspension travel. But if you aren't going for every last mm then yeah, you can check the space you currently have and guesstimate.
    • If you own a car, and it has wheels on it, and you know the offset of those wheels, and you have a measuring device, you have everything you need to work out if other wheels will fit.
    • Will this fit? but they are staggered set - RAYS 57DR SEMI GLOSS BLACK 18x8.5 +37 | 18x9.5 +38 5-114.3 STAGGERED SET   or If no go could just get a set 4's wheels of 18x8.5 +37 5-114.3 - would i run 8.5's 235s up front n 245's at the back if I do?   Thanks.        
    • Put a clamp on your return line. I have a feeling it's sucking air, and introducing bubbles to your fuel. With a lot of fuel, less problematic. I'd honestly be redoing all the lines in the tank and clamps on everything.   Also, you've given two different answers to the same question: Asked if being followed by the police you could get down to use the whole tank, you said yes you could, so long as you keep off boost. However, you then followed this up that free revving, it would also cause the issues. I'm doubting free revving is enough to make any noticeable boost on what is likely a decent sized turbo.   So now I have to ask, can you actually drive it lightly and use all the fuel, or does it break up even free revving? Also, have you put a fuel pressure gauge on it? Can you hear the pump change noise at all when you're having this issue?
