I don't like them. Would suit a Hummer or the like, but not a Skyline. Soon as I come off my P's I'm grabbing a Silver R33 turbo, whacking a nice kit on it, with a GTR wing and some nice 18" (maybe 19") Enkei rims. Nice and simple, gives the whole car a better look in my opinion, and doesn't just draw your eyes to the wheels.

:P :):yes:

:)

Wheels make or break a car.

And...

Dont buy wheels to fit your car. Make the car fit the wheels.

Did some more work on my guards today. Almost finished, then to be painted. And to decide on a colour LOL

Wow, another 2 pages since I last saw this thread. haha.

Since this is an opinion thread, I reckon R31 drift pig has got the best fitment/wheels posted.

haha definately, ill throw this up but im at a disadvantage as i dont have flares like an R31.

I dont have flares either. They're standard, all metal guards, bashed with a 20 pound hammer and a guard roller. A lot of work went into them. 4 dor sedans cant use the bolt on flares off of coupes.

Guards like mine are possible on your car too.

You also have a huge adavntage having 5 stud, so better access to good wheels, and rear camber adjustment. I have 4 stud and live rear end, so my offsets/widths/guards had to be worked out to the mm.

haha yeh, stock flares.

yeh in that image i was at the limit, running a 225 tyre there, i chucked on a 235 and it started scraping. need to chuck some minor flares on and straighten up the camber.

Id put a 235 tyre on, wind in the camber to 1 - 1.5 deg,a nd roll/flare the rear to suit. A nice rounded flare like you see on S13's etc would look tuff as, especially if you keep running no kit, and just dump it on the deck. Just like this one...

And dont be a homo, keep your 33 gtr wheels silver. Look great against gunmetal paint, but keep the popo off your back because they look factory.

nah, i chose suspension integrity lol

dropping ur car to the floor is so try hard, biggest rice mod i can think of.

oh and the GTR rims im getting a free powdercoat, not gonna pass up the op for a free powdercoat.

Ok the reason I said about the poser drug dealers... Please explain to me how a 21 year old (as a lot of the people that enter their cars into autoghey are) can afford to mod their cars to THAT level?

Rich parents? sure I'll be willing to bet money a lot of them use their parents money. But in all honesty you can't tell me there isn't a flood of drug money financing those cars...

And I'm not talking about a stocko civic with dinnerplate chromies I'm talking about full leather interior, chromed/polished everything, huge turbo kits, airbrushed everything...

Also it might be your car or his car w/e... but you asked and also, some guys like to have sex with other guys... some people like the band Jet... some people think that dressing like tupac is cool. Is it? No, it's not. It might be your car but if you're doing it wrong, don't have a cry when someone tells you.

No offence man, but you seem very norrow minded. Heard of loans? Some people take these out to finance their cars.

You have 13 posts up and a few of these posts are wasted on flaming people. Relax man, find something positive to say about something within your first 20 posts.

Just saying... :laugh:

Can't see too many banks giving your average 21 year old a 50 thousand dollar loan to paint a car and stick a big stereo in it... but that's just me. Obviously not everyone with a hugely modded car is a druggie but as I've said, you can't tell me that there's not a large amount of suspect money financing a lot of autosalon/etc cars.

    • HFM BM57 has a "bad" knee point, IIRC. It's not the same thing as the later R chassis MC.
    • 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.
