Still sitting too high, especially at the front but a huge improvement imo...

Along way to go to get it how i want but a very good start with these wheels!

Cheers,

Anthony

Looks awesome mate. I especially like this rear 3/4 shot. It will look sooo good with a 1" drop and front splitter.

Cheers guys..

Will be looking at getting some coilovers in the new year as my next mod, unless some good ones pop up before then...

Cheers,

Anthony

Happy new year mate.

Ha nice one buddy, looks alot better sitting properly like that! Not sure if I would still get it in my driveway at that height....

will have to fix the driveway ha.

Was just tossing up between clear or smoked side and front indicators, wonder if you can use your photo editing skills to see which one looks better if you get a chance?

Cheers,

Anthony

Merry Christmas Anthony...

Carrying on from iwanta34gtr's lead; I also added a V.spec splitter for you:

White lenses + splitter:

Smoked lenses + splitter:

I vote smoked. :)

Yeah Smoked does look better against the wheels...

Hey Matt can u put side skirts on it and rear pods?

And maybe even a set of Carbon Ganador Mirrors

Cheers matt, looks really good... wouldnt even know it was edited unless told i think!

When i was thinking about the smoked vs clear indicators, i wanted smoked, but i wasnt sure that they would come up dark enough to actually match in with the wheels, so was thinking the clear might be better to match the headlights...

thanks to your handy work though the smoked covers look awesome... I might ask for them for xmas haha!

Thanks again guys..

Haha that'll cost $29.95... a bit more effort involved there! But do-able. Maybe if one of us gets bored enough we can give it a go.

No worries mate, I think the smoked will look the goods.

they are 19x10.5

both our R34's have these wheels fitted but one car has a +22 offset and the other is a +12

    • Depending on the purpose of the car, and how much more fabbing you want to do, and what clearances you have, you could look to raise the motor, which will raise the front diff up. Likely would mean altering the chassis rails etc etc, hence the more fab work you'd need to do. However, this can create issues, not just in clearance with everything fitting under the bonnet, but you've also raised a LOT of weight up in the car, and this will DEFINITELY alter handling characteristics (But, so will how much weight you've already added to the front end). You'll also have to deal with the fact the gearbox to rear diff is now out of alignment too for the tail shaft, and alter the angle of the diff, or deal with a bit of potential vibration. Raising the motor an inch up, is effectively the same as making the whole car sit higher by not lowering it as far. So one inch higher motor, theoretically means you can drop the car an extra inch lower, and maintain the same angles in the CVs. Again, depends on the purpose of the car. If it's a just cruiser on the street car, maybe won't be an issue. If it's meant to be a time attack car, I can see you not wanting to raise the motor. This is just for you to ponder as an idea.
    • Have you not seen geospy.ai? It can now give GPS co ords to within a metre from a photo, even if it's a random photo you take inside. Supposedly at the moment only the government/law enforcement has access to that... Supposedly...
    • I've got the rear ones, they're certainly beefy. I need to take them to my driveshaft guru to check over, he's very fussy about the quality of components so I'll let you know if they are made of cheese by a blind man.   Are you in Australia? A mate just had a set of EN26 shafts made for his K20 Lotus by our fabricator which were quite cheap (compared to Driveshaft Shop) so if you can procure the CV's and draw what you need he'd make them for ~$800 for the pair.
    • Had I known the diff between R32 and R33 suspension I would have R33 suspension. That ship has sailed so I'm doing my best to replicate a drop spindle without spending $4k on a Billet one.
    • OEM suspension starts to bind as soon as the car gets away from stock height. I locked in the caster and camber before cutting off the kingpin. I then let the upright down in a natural (unbound) state before re-attaching it. Now it moves freely in bump and droop relative to the new ride height. My plan is to add GKTech arms before the car is finished so I can dial camber and caster further. It will be fine. This isn't rocket science. Caster looks good, camber is good, upper arm doesn't cause crazy gain and it is now closer to the stock angle and bump steer checks out. Send it.
