THIS IS NOT FOR A SKYLINE:

I need to borrow 4 rims and tires for a Mitsubishi Lancer. The ones that came with the car put the track off by 20mm, and also didnt have the right load rating (only 500kg not 530).

I borrowed a set off a mate of mine, but they didn't pass either, the rolling diameter was out... (They were 70s i need 65s).

This is what i am after, either to borrow stock MR lancer mags (most idea option but they must be the STOCK ones, and have the correct tire width and height), or else the specific ones on the tire placard:

185/65R14's with a load rating no less than 86 (530kg), and a speed rating of no less than H. The rim size is 5.5J.

Please get back to me asap if can help me out. THANKS!

Any one? Need to sort this out by the end of this week!

Yeah, tis a bit of a bitch, no wreckers have them, nor ezy scrap. I wish i knew some one with one, but dont atm...

The ones i borrowed from a mate had the 70's not 65's so didnt pass...

Looks like we may have to buy 4 crap cheap arse tires for this.....

Ended up buying some second hand ones with bout 90% tread for $55 a corner. bit better than $71-75 for the cheapest new ones.... Will have to do, and when we can afford it, will get nicer rims and tires for the car again.

Pack it with foam or some shit haha

I was told to put some metal flyscreen gauze stuff in the pipe somewhere where it can't be seen by inspectors and that should help muffle it more.

Just DON'T Flogggg the Carp out of it !

yes I said carp. :thumbsup: Here fishy fishy fishy...

The metal flyscreening is best and as long as dont flog it then it will not be an issue, and it is easy to clean out and remove after.

The other thing you can use is the big loop sturdy steel wool. We used that stuff in our motorbike at home for years so as not to piss off the neighbours when we road it around the yard as kids.

Heya everyone!

So I had a preemptive check done on my car for rego.

Got the over 9000 window tint removed but now I need a set of stock r34 wheels with good tread (apparently my wheels are too wide) and a stock exhaust or a quieter cannon I could buy off someone.

If anyone wants to help me out I can repay you with you favorite beverage or swing a few spendoolies your way.

So glad I got a week long permit and not just a day long one.

Wicked! I'm just going to see tomorrow if an exhaust shop can just chuck a resonator in my current system because I know one has been taken out but if I can't get that done in time...

Hey guys,

did not even notice this thread!

Does anyone have a stock or quiet catback exhaust for an R32 GTS/GTST that me and my dad could borrow for his car to pass roadworthy? We tried the steel wool trick and it still failed :down:

Cheers!

Hey all, I had some stock wheels sorted but the guy will be away on my days off (tomorrow and thursday) Does anyone happen to have a set of stock r34 rims they could swap for mine while i get my rego check?

cheers,

Andy B

Hey guys does anyone have a torque wrench I can borrow on the weekend? Me and dad are swapping the whole from suspension/hub assembly on his 32 and looking at the service manual we're gonna need a torque wrench lol.

Cheers,

Drew

    • Hi from Canada, Both of my calipers are starting to fail. My car is a 2005 M35 Stagea ARX and I can't seem to find any parts or any cross reference caliper that would fit my car. Is there a company or a similar caliper that would fit and I could replace the OEM one. Or if anyone knows where I can find a new OEM. Any help is very appreciated. Let me know!
    • Maf is a question mark but TPS  I have set at 0.47, the fact that I’m getting proper voltage range out of it with the key on leads me to believe it’s functioning properly. I’m getting proper voltages on basically everything. I still need to look up voltage ranges for z32 maf and test that 
    • Honestly no not at all, but it’s a very basic tune, it’s stock injectors q45 tps and z32 maf. Other than that it’s a completely stock base map. The file is from nistune and from my understanding if it was tune related I would be able to unplug maf and tps and it would still start even if it was a really shitty start. I have tried starting it with coolant temp, maf, and tps unplugged none of those 3 togethor or individually changes anything

    • What does it look like with highway driving? And yes, I had a similar thought as Duncan. It looks quite similar in my Stagea and I have made myself accept it as normal. Might have to look into it some day   Highway gets as low as 10l/100km on my end so I'm not as worried about it being a mechanical issue. More likely just the tune on the haltech.
