do a chop with white wheels. i'm not convinced that white will look good against yellow.

the other problem is i dont like black wheels either.

so basically, i got nuffin'.

unless you wanna go for a shadow/chrome dish, or something like that. then i'm with ya.

these wheels look good imo - http://www.skylinesaustralia.com/forums/in...st&id=62463

white is teh sex.

thanks Tony.

im getting the rims but i definatly want white on there somewhere. i might replace the blue strip with a white strip or just get it cut back and polished.

for $300 with tyres, you cant go wrong.

theyre 17x9 so i'll mainly be getting them for grip.. i lose too much traction :P

I like wheels with contrast color.

i sprayed my r32 stockers white, looks good when they are clean, but after like 2 days, you get either road grime or brake dust on em and they look SHIAt!! and im assuming that applies to all white rims!! so if u do it, then be prepared to give em a wipe every 2 days. (WORTH IT THOUGH)

by the way, i saw your yellow r33 at that harry's hotdogs on saturday a week ago, looks awesome man!! love the body kit!!

cheers,

daniel

what i want to do is spray the black parts white, then get the blue part around the edges polished. cleaning isnt a problem cause my car is always dirty, so i wont bother.

man i love harry de wheels... im there as often as i can be.

where were you?

a really dodgy pic of my car when i bought it. it has the white enki rims same as the ones your gettin. personally i prefer bigger rims. i plan on sellin these soon

haha, check out the lift kit! good thing its sittin low on coilovers now!

    • Pressure when IDLING, is meant to be 51PSi... So that amperage value needs to go up a fair chunk... I'd personally be factoring for more like 12amp at least on those runs, and at that point you need to hope the already there wiring doesn't drop you a volt or two, as that's a lot of fuel pressure flow drop off from 13.5 to 12V! Taking idle pressure of 51psi, means the pump will be drawing a MINIMUM of 9amps all the time based on your reading of the graph (3bar base, then allowing an extra 0.5bar for boost = roughly 51psi)
    • Hi all,  I am in the market for an R200 longnose diff out of a Z31 300ZX, or S12 RSX, DR30 skyline, or similar, in a 3.9 ratio.  Preferably a late model one with the M12 crownwheel bolts.  The only easy to find advert for one of these was my ad back in 2007 when I sold it on this forum.  I sold the diff as I had sold the car it goes to, but as it turns out, after 18 years I got the car back late last year, so now I'm looking for the diff !  If anyone knows where to find a longnose R200 LSD with the M12 crownwheel bolts, drop me a line at [email protected] - Bonus paid if soomeone comes up with the original diff (stranger things have happened !).  Cheers   Ben D    
    • Hi everyone, I used to post here a bit from 2004-2013, when I owned various Nissans, in particular my S12 RSX gazelle, which was sold in 2007.  As luck would have it, after an 18 year hiatus, the car found its way back to me last year, and over the past 11 months I have had the pleasure of restoring it with my kids.  One thing that I am after in particular is a 3.9 ratio R200 LSD for it.  I actually sold the one out of the car here back in 2007 , and it would be incredible if I could track down who I sold it to, so I can see how they have progressed over the years (and to be honest, to see whether I can get the diff back !).  Anyways, hi all and let me know "where are the R200 Longnose diffs all at these days ?  Cheers Ben D  
    • Arms will be the same as the G35 or 350Z, but as above, there was a change in the lower control arm where it connects to the ball joint.  That said, you can remove the ball joint cone from your old ball joints and fit them to the new ball joints.  To be honest, I didn't think the ball joints themselves were different. The main ball joint is a bit awkward to replace, you really need to remove the steering knuckle to press out the old one.  Some people have used tools to remove it in place, but it just seemed too hard to get to. If you are going to press out/in that ball joint, then you may as well just replace the bushings in the LCA and the compression rod.  You can buy the compression rod bushing from Nissan, but the LCA bushes, you will need to go aftermarket. Much cheaper than buying the whole arm.
    • Ha, well, it's been.... a bit of a journey. Things have taken much longer than I'd hoped. I'll probably put up a thread at some stage. Hopefully soon. The car's not done any kms since my update in June though, put it that way.
