I'm not married, but will gladly get hitched if it means handing her over to you will solidify me a steer in the Rad :)

:cool::blink:

Me either! :devil:

Haha I recall you also offering me a go in your car some time ago if ever I was in QLD, so the offer is back at ya mate ;)

Im up for car swapping too Dane! I mean, who wouldnt want to drive the red wiggles car!

Haha I really should have a key party, I think I'd take home the prettiest girl in the room... if only it had a key.

Yoki is realeasing a true man's tyre soon, 295 :devil:

That's my aim!

Who needs geometry when you just have an excess of tyre! :blink:

WOW! That's insane. Prob be hard to make a 295 work on a car that light without the aero of Berry's 34.

Why spacers? Do the 10.5s hit the suspension, or are you two whacky kids just got track on the brain?

Yeah my 18x9 +22 RS's nearly hit the suspention up front with 235 tyres! I'm amazed that you fitted your 19's on your 32 Ben? Did you put em on the front or back?

You got it Dane :devil: Feel free to bring some of your hot women too you big hunk of spunk! :cool::blink:

Russ, I only put one on the front..... farkin hectik. iPhones take awesome pics....

Front, NO spacer, with a 285/30 tyre;

Have you trial fitted rear yet?

Edited by Marlin
LOL, yeah maybe, but I plan to make the body actually go over the wheel/tyre so them they'll hate me again :blink:

Least it will go round corners then.

but needs a set of wheels like this to go with the truck turbo :devil:

Brus aren't you supposed to wedge a credit card between the tyre and the bodywork?

this is probably as bad a place as any to ask - what do people know about 5Zigen wheels? up to the job of bouncing off kerbs?

We should talk Russ, see eachother through this :P

I'm thinking +15 with a 20mm spacer.... am I being silly do you think?

Where can we buy SLR5000 type flares for these things?

Yep I was thinking the same. Perhaps 15mm spacer if possible.. I was hopeing to get them under pumped GTR guards front and rear... Don't really like bolt on.

My next step is to put some 265/35/18's on my SL's and trial spacers. 20mm is most likely. No time atm though.

If it's a silly idea then that makes 2 of us haha. Check out my fb photo's when I trial fitted with 25mm spacer (no tyre)

yay this is my kind of topic.

get yourselfs a copy of the latest HPI. it has a s15 time attack car from J pan that was featured on speed hunters a while back. they just used the stock guards but spaced them out about 50mm with some bracketts. instant wide body. as always it could have been done nicer.

also not sure if either of you guys are running them but r33 lower contol arms will push track out moreso.

if you get much wider than a 10inch at +15 you will be getting scrubbing on the fire wall and chassis rail. i have 10 +15 on the front of my car with r33 lca and modified lock for drifty drifts and there is rub marks every where. i know you guys dont need ooooober lock but its worth considering.

oh and 10 +15 fits a gtr guard perfect so you can go a bit further and roll the guards.

    • That's probably OK. That's a face to face compression joint between two surfaces with the clamping load provided by those bolts. So.... it's unlikely that the bolts will end up feeling that load in shear, unless the clamping surfaces are not large enough, bolts not got enough tension on them, etc etc to prevent the two faces from moving wrt each other. Which... I would hope the designers have considered, seeing as it's probably one of the most important things the upright has to do apart from resist collapsing in its own right. But yes, it would definitely be worth asking them what their safety factor on that part of the design was. I tend to think that the casting, being a casting, is not necessarily the strongest bit of material in the world. It's about an inch square, and when you think about the loads that are being put into it, you have to wonder what safety factor the Nissan boys (and every other OEM engineer who has designed all the millions of other uprights that look essentially the same) used to account for defective casting, aging, severe impacts on the wheel, etc etc. 
    • Those bolts would be orders of magnitude stronger that cast aluminium though.  And its mainly clamping force, not shear they are dealing with?
    • Except all that twisting force that is breaking a cast piece, appears to be going through 4 bolts in the picture Johnny posted of the BryPar one...
    • The smart approach is to use the gearbox loom from the manual car. Makes it a lot easier - just plugs into the switches on the box and plugs into the main loom up near the fusebox. Then you only need to deal with bypassing the inhibit switch. The other approach requires you to use the wiring diagram to identify those wires by colour and location, perhaps even indulging in a little multimeter action to trace them end to end to make sure, and then.... you will have the answers you need. The R34 wiring diagram is available on-line (no, I do not have a link to it myself - I would have to do a search if I wasn't able to go to the copy I have at home).
    • Hi, i’m converted my r34 4dr auto to manual but need help with gearbox wiring. There are bunch of wires no idea which one for speedo drive, neutral, reverse can anyone help me. IMG_6860.mov
