New rim pics are up on PAGE 3!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Hi guys and grrls,

Well i have just ordered my new 19 inch rims for my R34

I have always loved the Koya Inox Imagines (yes popular but things become popular for a reason :yes: )

Anyway I have always liked silver cars with the shadow chrome colour rim, but the flat silver looks amazing in these rims too.

Anyway, I have seen heaps of photos with the flat silver but not many cars with the Hyper Black imagines, and this is the colour i have ordered.

any one have pics of the Hyper black imagines on any cars?

ive attached my car below, I guess im going to the sinister style look...

anyway im just after opinions on what you people prefer, did i make the right choice?

Im hoping people will say hyper black was the right choice! here is a pic of hyper blacks

And some in the normal silver

Very neat and simple design to accent the clean look of your car,

Hope you picked a decent offset, it will look schmick with a bit of dish

I had shadow chrome on my old silver r33 so hyper black was a good choice

You've got good taste mate, the only thing I'd add to your car would be Ganador side mirrors and it would look complete.

The only reason I haven't changed to ganadors myself is that I actually need to fold my mirrors in to squeeze my r34 in the garage, and it makes it much easier with a switch :(

Cheers dude

Well Of course what you want and what is legal is always different lol. I was planning on 19*8 up front and 19*9 at the rear, however the 19*9 rims need a minimum of 245/35/19 to be legal, and they are too bigger rolling diameter to stay legal for my car here in QLD. So therefore I have to go 235/35/19s, which of course arent legal on a 9 inch rim.

So therefore i stuck with 19*8 all the way round with some 235/35/19s so that they are all legal. No use paying 1700 insurance per year just to blow it on wide rims lol

    • The ATTESSA is functionally identical to R34; there were a bunch of JDM models that continued ATTESSA including Fuga/Q70, Skyline/Q50, Cima etc as an option. All with Auto only and I think mostly for snow regions. AFAIK there were no AWD VR30DDTT sold in Australia - it is on my to do list to check regs for racing a LHD car in Targa/ATR/AASA/CAMS events because if I can get the auto to work it would be interesting to run a 4wd car The Ecuteck TCM tuning is the same model as their ECU tuning, they already have it for R35 and Dose's favourite, BMW. You buy "points" to allow your computer to be tuned, buy either a bluetooth (phone app) or bluetooth+USB+Key (phone and PC) dongle, and pay for a tune that will be locked to your tuner ( ). You can also access the tuning software yourself but 1. it is mega expensive and 2. these computers have a billion parameters that intersect, so how could you ever spend enough time on it to get a decent result.
    • Or, is it a case of what it is like owning an R series Skyline? NFI what the previous owner has done or fiddled with... Ha ha ha After reading through this thread, I went on a bit of a research about the Q50/Q60. Now I'm quite intrigued by them! Is the AWD in them more like a WRX where it's always AWD, or is it more like the ATTESSA in the GTRs? By the sound of this TCU tuning, this sounds like a case of someone has made some real software for it, and you just need the right piece of hardware, and then you license that specific vehicle/TCU. Or is this a case of the software will be really expensive so only a few tuners have it, and you still have to pay a license per vehicle?
    • By popular demand.. it was a coil. Got my hands on 1 new OEM coil, replaced with the one that made the less noise difference when I unplugged it while the car was running and started the car up. No stutter and the engine light was gone. I guess I’ll buy the other 5 they have lol
    • No, code 21 is very straightforward. It can only be the things described in that diagnostic flow. In fact it has no way of knowing that the spark plug resistance is out of spec.
    • Hi, SteveL Thank you very much for your reply, you seem to be the only person on the net who has come up with a definitive answer for which I am grateful. The "Leak" was more by way of wet bubbles when the pedal was depressed hard by a buddy while trying to gey a decent pedal when bleeding the system having fitted the rebuilt BM50 back in the car, which now makes perfect sense. A bit of a shame having just rebuilt my BM50, I did not touch the proportioning valve side of things, the BM50 was leaking from the primary piston seal and fluid was running down the the Brake booster hence the need to rebuild, I had never noticed any fluid leaking from that hole previously it only started when I refitted it to the car. The brake lines in the photo are "Kunifer" which is a Copper/Nickel alloy brake pipe, but are only the ones I use to bench bleed Master cylinders, they are perfectly legal to use on vehicles here in the UK, however the lines on the car are PVF coated steel. Thanks again for clearing this up for me, a purchase of a new BMC appears to be on the cards, I have been looking at various options in case my BM50 was not repairable and have looked at the HFM BM57 which I understand is manufactured in Australia.
