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... :)

    • I've looked up the parts number (41011AL501). It's around $700 OEM. Usually our Infiniti G35 here in Canada have interchangeable parts with my Stagea but the parts number are not the same. I have looked around and it seems the JDM 2005 V35 Skyline (which is the same as our G35) has the same caliper but I cannot confirm. And I can't find a repair kit. The inner brake pads drags on the rotor, seems to be rusty piston. Thanks for the info by the way
    • This coupled with 6-9 speed autos with ridiculously short gearing is why these modern shitbox cars always seem so fast off the line. If it wasn't for those things, Raptors would not seem fast. The problem we have is there is a driveability gap between a more gentle take off and a wheelspinning sideways launch. The difference between ankle flex required to achieve one and ankle flex required to achieve the other is about 0.5°.
    • Yeah I think I'm also with the opposite here. It's 'hard to keep up with traffic' because in the real world I'm accelerating with 15% throttle and they are pinning it. It feels like I'm being an overt dickhead at anything above 15% throttle, so the car sounds like I'm being an overt dickhead to keep up with/get ahead of traffic when I'm really just trying to drive with traffic. There would be no issue 'keeping up with traffic' if we used the same level of throttle input/aggression to drive around. People really do just drive around with their foot nearly pinned in econoboxes.
    • To be fair it's the other way around. 300kw is boring in a modern Golf or BMW. They are so competent / well-engineered / devoid of emotion that you have to go stupid fast to feel anything. Whereas the <300kw RB still makes all the right noises and it feels good to drive. Can pull off at the lights with the turbo whooshing and the blow-off pssshing and feel like the coolest kid on the block. Just don't look to the side where you'll see the bored housewifes in their shitbox Yaris/Corolla/Camry that kept up because you didn't go fast at all
    • 300kW is so boring in a Skyline, you'll get spanked by someone's mum's Golf with Alibaba pipes, and an email tune.
