Hey peeps. I'm now a full timer at Buddy club.

I'm in charge of design here (and a good dab of marketing), that's all the print work for various car magazines as well as the web site. I've been here for about a month now, it's been great to combine passion with work, something I always strive to do.

I know many Skyline owners are not fame whore inclined but I'm currently trying to develop a customer car gallery on the Buddy club web site so if any of you have Buddy club products on your car, please email me some pictures, your name and exactly what Buddy club products you have on your car and I'll add them to the gallery!

Send images to: justin(AT)buddyclub.com.au

sidrr20: Awesome. Send me more! I'll definitely include your car on the Buddy club site.

And redevil: You're WRONG there about Buddy club products now being replicas.

Many of the products including wheels are still being made in Japan. The ultra light weight QF forged wheel is made in Japan, so too the PII Plus.

Yes the Japanese company was taken over my AAI. AAI are into motor sports and based in Taiwan. They distribute a lot of great Japanese brands including TOM'S, Autoexe, Blitz, Mugen and a lot more. Check: http://www.aai-racing.com.tw/aai.php

I am not a trader here so I'll be careful with what I say. Buddy club does not sell direct to the public in any case (wholesale only). Although if you are dead serious about wanting something at mates rates then PM me and we'll see if we can work something out.

Hey champ..

I sent you a few links in the email.. let me know if you recived my email!!

Would be aweosme if you could include my car in there!! Would be so greatful if you could do that!!

Let me know if you need more pics etc..

Btw for those of you who havnt even seen the p1s range shouldnt comment.. They are the lightest rims i have picked up!! Workman ship is just as it use to be say 10 years ago.. (exactly like my p1s-- strong, light, forged etc)

Dude, i might be keen if you could get your hands one some orignal p1s in gunmetal.. Let me know if you can find a set.. brand new that is

Even tho i got a set, i want another set!!

Cheers man

Edited by siddr20

do they still make that mega, ultra, super light rims? kinda P1 style, but more dish, and more shiny... might be more GTR offset/size. I think i saw a pic on a demo R34 GTR

anyone know what i'm talking about? There's the p1's which are supposedly like bricks compared to these other buddy club rims... :ninja:

um i just saw the latest shipment at access another official buddy club distributor and instead of two piece spun forged they are now one piece cast.... so dont know what your on about? definately cast NOT forged.

plenty of other good products non the less, im just about to use their cams in a tough evo 6 TME.

LOL Ronin, it's alright, you know me, always happy to try and hook a brother up!

The P1's are NOT FORGED and never ever were. The only super lightweight forged rim they have is the QF version (QF stands for Qualify First, ie: a qualifying race rim):

15" 4.65 Kgs

17" 6.15 Kgs

18" 6.70 Kgs

    • I thought it could be an issue because the standard plate was flexing when stressed. Maybe the original gear set will hold a bit better without flex? Last time on the dyno it made around 670nm at the hubs. Now it have bigger turbo and better intake but have not been on a dyno yet. The car is being used from family trips to drag race events. So the shifts can be a little violent. It is grinding if I shift to fast so was thinking I should overhaul it soon.
    • From the factory on RB26s there's a fitting on the intake manifold collector/"plenum" that provides pre-throttle boost signal. That's how they did it back in the day, I figure it's fine to replicate it.
    • I would be surprised if that wasn't the issue. It's probably telling you, that even if you remove the plastic liner, you may have some other clearance issues that may occur too in some scenarios. IE, tyre to guard. It looks like someone has already rolled the lip, but you may still have issues in the future IE, turning and hitting a bump etc. The fact it changes how bad it makes the noise when you are going backward vs forward is highly indicative that it's the tyre rubbing. They do make a terrible sound, even if you're only pushing a project car that has a liner hanging down on a tyre!   Has the car been lowered? If it has been, what is the measurement from the centre of the wheel hub to the lip of the guard straight up?

    • Mark's a bit smarter than people give him credit... He'd convince the person that is to become dead, to drive him to the forest first. That way his car has no evidence in it, and he's free to dispose of their vehicle permanently how he sees fit too...
