Soounds wrong? Dont think so.

Those performance challengers on the first car are 16 x 10 -5, mine are 10mm further in, and I have all metal flared guards. And making things harder is mine are 18's.

Car also has now been dropped a further half inch in the rear, and the fronts now have a 25mm bolt on, making them effectivly -25.

for the record, dinnerplates ftl, tough jap rims on a jap car ftw...

But as for Auto Salon, it only used to be like that... It is getting more and more about horsepower every single time... Final battle was a weekend of extremely exciting huge powered cars fighting it out over two days... that, and shit blowing off cars due to insane amounts of boost... 4 cars there (at least) hit over 900 horses, eventually, RH9, the 1000+hp R34 skyline won the event...

Also, our very own SAUNSW member Paul (Dirt Garage), owner of TWO-06L broke a world record for most power out of an R32GTR with low mount turbos... cracked 500kw :) It's also a true 9 second car, and Paul is a proud member of the RH9 club in Japan :( and it's for sale :D

so yeah... you can call Auto Salon rice if you want, but I don't think you've been in a while...

Dyno queens are in the same catagory as show ponies imo. Obviously I'm not saying that every single car at autosalon is a ricer but I can promise everything with huge chromies is... Probably not too many huge horsepower cars with dinnerplates on.

This thread is Hilarious..

So because i'm 20 years old and have a Car with leather interior and chromies makes me a drug dealer? Heck i got a R32 gtr aswell.. that must make me a drug son of rajab!

I admit i personally built my car for such things as Autosalon.. but i also have an 11 sec gunmetal r32 that has no signs of a bodykit, no chrome, and no leather... I guess i'm not much of a poser after all.

Everybody is entitled to their own opinions, but i find it unnecessary to bag a person for what they like.

Care to share with the class how you personally pay for it?

who cares what he does, and its not up to him to tell everyone how he made his money

im 23 ( owned my car for 5 years spent a shitload on it) also have a mercedes ml430, own my own business and been investing since i was 16, people are amazed when someone young makes money, they think its sus.

a few of my mates are in the same boat, 1 in particular makes more money than his parents, good luck to him,

find another job if u want more money.

btw i got big chromies and i aint no ricer, when it comes to racing, i ditch the chromes for my MT's with r32gtr rims and run my 600rwhp car as it should

I used to operate a bodykit business a few years ago, operating through my bro's performance garage.

I hooked up with a few investors met a few people in the business and made contact with some suppliers in japan and china. Made copies in Dubai or china and imported them over and sold them at a higher price under the name of Xstream Aerokits, done so for 2 years until the market died out.

And also invested 5k of what i had when i was 12 to buy a house with my sister which sold last year for several times the purchased amount.

And easily tripled my money, plus the percentage of income i got from the rent. Aswell as a steady full time job.

Thats where the majority of my money came from..and yes it has done me well. is that legit enough for you??

if your going to build the car around the chromes, and make a showcar, then go for your life. not a fan, +1 for tough jap wheels. but each to their own.

my new wheels. not the best photo, but im going to wind my coils down a lil bit soon.

That looks awesome. I was going to do the same on mine but I'm too lasy to keep 'em clean so i think ill go either those or te37's in a darker colour, like bronze or something, possibly even black.

      If only it were that easy! I also needed to remove seats, shocks, brake calipers, send my car through a fence, and use measuring and ended up guessing because I didn't remove seats, shocks and brake calipers. It can be hard sometimes Can be a little more complex than 'just measure' if you want to truly measure the entire wheel through all of it's suspension travel. But if you aren't going for every last mm then yeah, you can check the space you currently have and guesstimate.

      If you own a car, and it has wheels on it, and you know the offset of those wheels, and you have a measuring device, you have everything you need to work out if other wheels will fit.

      MAJOR FUEL ISSUES 25det neo r32

      By MBS206 · Posted

      Put a clamp on your return line. I have a feeling it's sucking air, and introducing bubbles to your fuel. With a lot of fuel, less problematic. I'd honestly be redoing all the lines in the tank and clamps on everything.   Also, you've given two different answers to the same question: Asked if being followed by the police you could get down to use the whole tank, you said yes you could, so long as you keep off boost. However, you then followed this up that free revving, it would also cause the issues. I'm doubting free revving is enough to make any noticeable boost on what is likely a decent sized turbo.   So now I have to ask, can you actually drive it lightly and use all the fuel, or does it break up even free revving? Also, have you put a fuel pressure gauge on it? Can you hear the pump change noise at all when you're having this issue?
