hey guys just picked up a pair of shoes for my baby. they look pretty sweet.

Osaka Racing Rims (not sure of model)

19x8 and 19x9 with 245/35/19 all around.

just thought would have a show and tell.

they fill the guards nicely

btw, go global tyres in bell st preston, mad ass prices on all goods.

Just so you know...

Going from stock to your current rims

Speedometer Difference: 3.540% too slow..

You can no longer rotate your wheels..

and just watch your rear tyres.. The inside of the rear guard folds in.. so you need to make sure its not srubbing :P

I have 18x8 on the front and 18x9 on the rear.. so i know all about neagative camber and its tyre chewing ability.

now thats out of the way..

nice rims :rolleyes:

with 19's on the back i got no rubbing, it clears the guards by about 5mm. enough not to chew them. and yes my speedo is out, i know that. i used my gps to check it out and its out by about 2-3km/h. i have fully adjustable front and rear camber on my skyline, its all been sorted so it dont chew.

      RB26DETT Sketchy boost mod?

      By ARB26 · Posted

      Or do we think it was installed to give 1 bar of boost max, all day, everyday?

      So could it be assumed it has been installed intentionally with potentially a power FC boost controller kit?

      What should I do next to hold the head on

      By Gareth87 · Posted

      Had my rig on Matt's dyno at PITS the other day. After a few years between tunes I added a few sensors and swapped intercoolers. Result. 553hp at 26psi. Not bad for an FJ20 that was built in 2007. The problem.. It filled the overflow bottle on hard runs which leads me to believe the head gasket isn't sealing. I have a coolant pressure sensor which was reading cap pressure at 22psi and occasionally overrunning to 23/24 psi on deceleration after a pull. It was not spiking. It has arp2000 head studs and a cometic gasket. As its been 18 years in service, I pulled the engine out and head off. Everything looks good but we obviously have an issue. Where I'm at.. Years ago I had the same issue, I checked the stud tension and they were all over the place. Some at 60 to 70 and some up near 90. I nipped them all to 100ft lbs and this stopped the water push until now. I believe this compromised the gasket back then. What do I do? 2 options are..  1) I bought arp 625+s, which I could put in with a new gasket. Thinking Kameari this time, reassemble and try again. 2) strip the block, get fire rings machined in with copper gasket and try that. I do not want to push it more than 28 to 30psi. I think the turbo will be out by then anyway. (G30-770). My other concern is the long term ability of a copper head gasket. Are they streetable for years? I feel like a new gasket with the new studs will probably suffice, but I don't know. Any thoughts welcome and advice on copper gaskets and fire rings. Thanks!

      Chris' Toyota Mark ii JZX110

      By MBS206 · Posted

      I'm a fan of the JZX110, and the Aristo. Big cruiser cars, and with the factory cars, super comfortable and feel like you're driving an armchair! And the JZ motors are a pretty nice engine too, especially with some basic mods.   The import process, and the need to be able to trust people, and the fact there's so many scammers around is what ever puts me off wanting to go through that ordeal!
