offset.

google it pls.

jeez you're a pain. he just got the car. i'd say he has atleast 3months before having those wheels on can be definately be attributed to his preference. after which poin, i will heartily join u in waving the offset flag in his face

if your guna post pics be a man and accept advice on the thing.. otherwise dont bother posting pics ya fkn babies. exactly he just bought it perfect time to get advice on what to do so he doesnt take the wrong path... although between the two of you i cant see half a decent car so why am i not suprised...

Explain to me what is wrong with the offset?

Currently I've never driven a skyline before this one so I wouldn't know the difference. Sure go ahead and school me on these things but just remember you're schooling someone young so I wouldn't be proud of it, but tell me why mine or the other two guys cars arent even half decent, go ahead.

Edit: The wheels came with the car it wasn't my choice, I have a set of 16" Nismo Drift wheels here as well if that would float your boat so much more.

alex, im running 18x9 +25, 18x10 +25, and im of the opinion that i need less positive offset and more low. i know what good fitment is, i just haven't got the cash yet to get some better wheels/adjustable suspension to get it where i want it.

re your education of young borci here, it can be delivered in a better fashion than your 4 word reply.

Congrats on the purchase mate. Dont worry about the offset you just bought the bloody thing haha and the rims look pretty decent. Hectik offset equals crazy money ahhaha

your right my 4 word reply was lazy my apologies.

offset is what its all about dude if your wanting to take that path with your car which its upto you.. if you do www.hellaflush.com head over there and drool your life away.

basti im guessing its sitting on the top of the tyre with your current drop since the pics? so if anything another half inch plus camber but its hard judging on those pics posted. and 18x10 +25 is a good size i got +20 and making it fit was a pain in the ass

id lose the spoiler to cos the whole black on black thing you got going is tough that would set it off.. but thats just a personal opinion.

kinda like blags car.

env33d whats wheels/suspension are u running?

just a little bit higher actually. like a fingers width. i've got bilsteins which are circlip adjustable making it a little harder to play around with rideheights. might have to drop a couple of tyre sizes when i lower (265atm) cos i want minimal camber/max traction.

with the spoiler, im tossing up bn that and gtr wing. imo i need a a/m kit to pull off the no wing look, but my opinion changes almost on an hourly basis haha

howver car is probably gonna stay as is for a little while as im a broke nigga and have to wait till i graduate

    • Hi, is the HKS  Tower Bar still available ? negotiable ? 🤔
    • From there, it is really just test and assemble. Plug the adapter cables from the unit into the back of the screen, then the other side to the car harness. Don't forget all the other plugs too! Run the cables behind the unit and screw it back into place (4 screws) and you should now have 3 cables to run from the top screen to the android unit. I ran them along the DS of the other AV units in the gap between their backets and the console, and used some corrugated tubing on the sharp edges of the bracket so the wires were safe. Plug the centre console and lower screen in temporarily and turn the car to ACC, the AV should fire up as normal. Hold the back button for 3 sec and Android should appear on the top screen. You need to set the input to Aux for audio (more on that later). I put the unit under the AC duct in the centre console, with the wifi antenna on top of the AC duct near the shifter, the bluetooth antenna on the AC duct under the centre console The GPS unit on top of the DS to AC duct; they all seem to work OK there are are out of the way. Neat cable routing is a pain. For the drive recorder I mounted it near the rear view mirror and run the cable in the headlining, across the a pillar and then down the inside of the a pillar seal to the DS lower dash. From there it goes across and to one USB input for the unit. The second USB input is attached to the ECUtec OBD dongle and the 3rd goes to the USB bulkhead connected I added in the centre console. This is how the centre console looks "tidied" up Note I didn't install the provided speaker, didn't use the 2.5mm IPod in line or the piggyback loom for the Ipod or change any DIP switches; they seem to only be required if you need to use the Ipod input rather than the AUX input. That's it, install done, I'll follow up with a separate post on how the unit works, but in summary it retains all factory functions and inputs (so I still use my phone to the car for calls), reverse still works like factory etc.
    • Place the new daughterboard in the case and mount it using the 3 small black rivets provided, and reconnect the 3 factory ribbon cables to the new board Then, use the 3 piggyback cables from the daughterboard into the factory board on top (there are stand offs in the case to keep them apart. and remember to reconnect the antenna and rear cover fan wires. 1 screw to hold the motherboard in place. Before closing the case, make a hole in the sticker covering a hole in the case and run the cable for the android unit into the plug there. The video forgot this step, so did I, so will you probably. Then redo the 4 screws on back, 2 each top and bottom, 3 each side and put the 2 brackets back on.....all ready to go and not that tricky really.      
    • Onto the android unit. You need to remove the top screen because there is a daughterboard to put inside the case. Each side vent pops out from clips; start at the bottom and carefully remove upwards (use a trim remover tool to avoid breaking anything). Then the lower screen and controls come out, 4 screws, a couple of clips (including 3 flimsy ones at the top) and 3 plugs on the rear. Then the upper screen, 4 screws and a bunch of plugs and she is out. From there, remove the mounting brackets (2 screws each), 4 screws on the rear, 2 screws top and bottom and 3 screws holding in the small plates on each side. When you remove the back cover (tight fit), watch out for the power cable for the fan, I removed it so I could put the back aside. The mainboard is held in by 1 screw in the middle, 1 aerial at the top and 3 ribbon cables. If you've ever done any laptop stuff the ribbon cables are OK to work with, just pop up the retainer and they slide out. If you are not familiar just grab a 12 year old from an iphone factory, they will know how it works The case should now look like this:
    • Switching the console was tricky. First there were 6 screws to remove, and also the little adapter loom and its screws had to come out. Also don't forget to remove the 2 screws holding the central locking receiver. Then there are 4 clips on either side....these were very tight in this case and needed careful persuading with a long flat screw driver....some force required but not enough to break them...this was probably the fiddliest part of the whole job. In my case I needed both the wiring loom and the central locking receiver module to swap across to the new one. That was it for the console, so "assembly is the reverse of disassembly"
