awesome post cara.

andrew, i still think these would look f**kin baller on the new ride.

im in two minds

one i really like the black rims with black paint and a nice offset + rim size

on the other hand, black is the color that goes best with chromed rims... dont think chromies look anywhere near as good on other cars (they look shit on white for example)

and those rims there are quite gangsta

-D

yeah Dave those wheels would nearly go on my car - the fronts are perfect, but the rears would stick out 45mm wider than stock and sit 31mm closer to my struts, which may foul. Maybe we can head down to JIS with a jack and try them on when I get it? Might fit - and I can roll the rear guards with Luke's mate's roller if need be. not sure if they will let me try them on though.

Pity I am in love with CE28Ns .... and yes bronze ones would look hot on my car Talbo .... but I am kinda thinking the chrome/black ones as they are a bit different. Still undecided.

Stay with the CE28N's!!!

they'll let you try em on no worries at all andrew.

i stuffed em around for a good 30 minutes finding a hub, rotor, and caliper to check if my meshies would clear, and they didnt have a problem with it. as for rolling, yeah, stretched tyres, and a solid 'paper roll' should see you grinning.

yeah I am not a fan of chromies either Ben, but as Dave has said previously .... I am buying a black VIP style car, so dished chrome rims are the shizz .... especially in a super mexican offset like those VKSFs .... I might just give in to his inane rantings yet :)

ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh what to do .... what to do .... and I don't even officially own the car for another 10 days :)

But the Ebay fairy has been bringing nice carbon fibre and other bits for her .... I am pretty excited with some of the gear I have already acquired :)

a set of ssr viennas in 18x8.5 all round (with super low offset outback for mega dish) would be huge amounts of win. but youd need to be fair low to properly pull it off.

whatve you got so far? pm me if you like.

Much better

yeah, the silver on black looks dope

all u need is a hydraulic kit so u can hit switches n sit sideways, get more bounce to tha ounce yo

(sorry ive been watching breaking bad)

and then u can get hydraulic boot installs so u can pop trunk, houston style.... and listen to your music chopped and screwed

and sip codeine and promethezine cough syrup heh

Too bad the bass just munts up handicams - that was Paul Wall

-D

LOL Andrew, if Dave didn't fag out on us we could've carried 1 each on the plane and drive back on them!!!!!!!!!!

pete,

if you wanna cover the cost of 2 missed weekends (the best paying shifts of the week) so that i can come along on this awesome road trip (which i was embarking on straight after a 10 hour shift) i would be more than happy to do so.

much love,

dave.

haha true Pete .... I will be taking a couple of items with me on the plane to fit for the drive back :)

Dave I will post some photos of bits shortly.

So guys, I have done a VERY dodgy photochop of the chrome/black CE28Ns onto my car .... forgive the aspect of the wheels - I don't have a photo of them laying perfectly flat, so they look a bit phucked in my photochop - but it gives you the idea. I specifically like them since the car has a fair bit of chrome on it (and I will be taking off the black window guards so it will look even more chrome) - so they tie in nicely with the black/polished combo imho. Also, the car will be dropped just over 1" all round, so will fill the guards a bit better.

I am leaving this picture up for 2 minutes - so those who see it, enjoy and please keep the secret until I get my car. Those who don't - you snooze, you lose :) I will be taking the pic down in 2 minutes. Anyone found not keeping the secret will be dealt with by me accordingly.

    • Definitely do-able haha. I will give it a try if the fuel pump hanger does not solve the issue. Just need to find some quiet time in the area, Malta is like a big city and I live right next to the main hospital so it is very busy during the day. I'll be installing it in about 2 weeks, found a garage that is pretty knowledgeable and has the necessary tools. This garage has worked on multiple builds, even for competitions. They even asked me to stay with, so I should be fine.
    • Just to add, I found the r32 gtr ecu the most forgiving, the r33 one would get the shits. 
    • For what it’s worth I drove my gtr for over a decade with gt-ss as a true daily after I pulled off the -5s, I had it engineered and went with stock ecu etc.  never skipped a beat.    I would only worry if you can’t get good fuel all the time in a tropical paradise
    • I bought an engine from a friend of a friend many years ago, it was sold to me as a RB25det Neo.    recently I started pulling it apart and noticed that the intake manifold was pretty different from others that I had seen on RB engines so did a bit of research and found that it was a non turbo manifold. So I’m sceptical now that it is a NEO DET and just thinking it’s a NEO DE (it does have a turbo strapped to it currently).    can you identify the engine model from the numbers on the block?
    • Yeah you can. Cable tie the gauge to a windscreen wiper, or run it into the car and hold it with one hand, or have the neighbour's kid run alongside and tell you what it says.
