nice choice theyre are the exact rims im saving for, to put on the exact same car but in white, are they 17" or 18", im going for 18s i think.

if you dont mind me asking what did you pay for them, rrp is $2000 with rubber from tempe in syd

looks nice, may wanna drop the suspension next, but im a fan

This is a pick of them on my mates series 1 which is white, they looked good on that too.

Yeah I got them for $2100 but thats with the finance recovery cost added on top which is around 12%.

They are 18 x 8.5 with 235's on the front and 265's on the rear. Youll need to be careful though because on both my mates S1 and my S2 the front rubs on the control arm at full lock. They couldnt get the right combination of spacers either. So in the end they added a 3mm spacer and grinded about 3mm out of the control arm where is was rubbing. Very small amount grinded, and now they are fine. Grip has improved alot.

And yeah, please do take the photo and lower it, would love to see it.

leaving 1-2cm between the wheel well? and the tyres makes the car look best......I personally don't understand this obsession with "dumping it on its ass" look that so many people go for. Makes people looks such try hards.

yeah lowering it doesn't look that much better, I'd get some cool sideskirts that'll make the car look lower without you having to drive 2km/hr over speed bumps. The AH and JU ones from CARMATE looks pretty nice

Yeah, maybe thats the way to go. I plan on changing the suspension down the track, so that will probably have an effect to begin with, and ill go from there.

Nice rims dude..

But i still like your mesh time types rims (in your sig)

But as somebody already said it needs more lowering. You dont fully have to dump it and go 2kms an hour over speed humps..

Right height and it will look the goods..

Add your pics to this thread if you can:

    • So, version 4 intake is on its way I was looking at these a while ago but at around $200 or more it was a little pricey for something that might not work, but, I had it in my watch list, but, I got a message saying it was on special, and I had a code thingie to use, it eventually came in at $120 delivered, so BAM, BUY NOW.....LOL I'll need to have a look when it arrives but I feel it will "look" better than what I currently have, as it comes with a PCV fitting, so I will be able to get rid of the alloy pipe that goes to the throttle body with the PCV fitting  Well, that's what the voices in my head are telling me  Oh, and this happened today Yeap, it was a Trojan, and it was cheap, so I headed back to the hardware store and actually spent a little bit more on a heavy duty,  one that was actually recommended by a plumber mate, a Cyclone one with a fibreglass handle that is actually rated for clay The broken shovel will eventually be "modified" into a short handle shovel
    • When you pulled it off, there is no signs of blown head gasket? Is it possible you have some other issues going on? Possible cracked blocked? Or do you think it's straight up lifting the head? Did you check what the head was torqued to before pulling it down (To see if possibly they're stretching, or starting to break threads out etc)?
    • Seems like a decent result for a modded JZX110. They are bulky in comparison to the 100 and 90 models (which I'd prefer myself) but they are getting very few and far between here in JP these days. Thanks for the detailed review and the import process into the UK. I also have a car which I'm hoping to export from Japan at some stage so it's good to know if someone from the UK was interested in it. By the way the corrosion underneath is par for the course for cars which were located in/near the mountains or along the Japan sea coastline. They get huge amounts of snow every winter and the sodium chloride is used on the roads. Many cars have some kind of rubber like treatment underneath but they tend to limit it to the wheel arches underbody and fuel tank. Suspension arms and sub-frames will have similar corrosion to your JZX110 which is a common sight. See it all the time and car dealers here generally don't even mention it unless asked.
    • If the sound goes away when you clutch in, the 1.5/2 way diffs are just shit, and you are a normal person. The diff is likely "fine" but driving at anything under 30kmh is a violent horrible experience. It would be exaggerated with solid diff bushings and subframe bushings if you have those.
