like the wheels.

i agree with most about the rear width though.. especially if you have gtr guards.

i run a staggered set of 8.5 at the front and 9.5 at the rear. which sit flush in line with the gtst guards. (hard to tell in the pic)

ha and yes... its finally getting lowered soon. :cheers:

why would you want to hide the fact that your car is a gtst??

gtr kit and badges will neva make it the real thing,

Would you rather have a GTST or a GTR? I never said it was the real thing and i dont claim to own a GTR so i dont see what the problem is. If i hadnt of said it was a GTST then i doubt anyone would of said nething...

plus if u look closely u can see it had gtst seats :cheers:

sorry to say, but for 3.1k u could have gotten some better jap rims

doesnt look too bad tho

Sorry to say that you cant. All the rays n works etc are like $450+ a wheel and then ive still gotta buy tyres...

The only way a set of Jap rims in the same size would come in at a comparable cost would be to put some cheap, nasty tyres on them. Sort of defeats the purpose of buying the good stuff in the first place.

Theres a lot to be said about people who buy quality rims and then wrap them in Nankangs or similar. :D

Yes i have a set of non Jap rims but they are wrapped in some descent rubber, when your forking out between $350 - $400 per tyre, a tyre and rim package can add up real quick as i'm sure most of you already know..............

Looks good mate, your car, your choice, thats the modifiers way. :D

    • So, I put my boat on a boat. First of all, I'm going to come out and say it. Why is Tasmania not considered a holy goal, an apex that all road-legal modified cars go to, to experience? This place is an absolute wonderland of titanic proportions. If people are already getting club runs for once in a lifetime 30 person cruises to Tassy then I've never seemed to see it. It is like someone replaced the entire place with an idyllic wonderland for cars, and all of the people living there with paid actors who are kind, humble, and friendly. Dear god. After doing a lap of almost all of the place I've found that it's a great way to find out all of the little things that the car isn't doing quite right and a great way to figure it all out. All in all, I drove for 4 hours a day for a week and nothing broke. I didn't even need to open the engine bay. This is by all means a great success, but it has left me with a list of things to potentially address. I also now have a 3D printed wheel fitment tool which annoyingly hasn't got any threads in it to actually assemble it. I might be able to tape it together to check the sizing I actually want to use, but it'll likely involving pulling the shocks out to properly measure travel at least at the front, and probably raise the car while I'm at it, at least in the rear. I scraped on quite a few things and I'm not sure how else to go about it. I was taking anything with a bump at what felt like 89 degree angles. And address those 10 other tasks. And wash the car. God damn it is dirty. And somehow, the weather was perfect the entire time - And because I was on the top of Mt Wellington it turns out it was very much about to freeze up there. I did something I typically never do and took some photos up there in what must have been -10 and the foggy felt like suspended ice, rather than mere fog. If you own a car in Australia, you owe it to yourself to do it.
    • Damn that was hilarious, and a bit embarrassing for skylines in general 😂 vintage car life ey. That R33 really stomped. Pretty entertaining stuff
    • Hi, I have a r32 gtr transmission. Does any of you guys have an idea how much power it will hold with the billet center plate and stock gearset? At what power level and use did yours brake with or without billet plate? Thanks, Oystein Lovik
    • Saw this replica police car based on a Mitsubishi Starion XX parked next to a 'police box' (it's literally a box) in Hirohata, Himeji City in Hyogo prefecture the other day. It's owned by Morii-san who is a local Mitsubishi Starion enthusiast. According to a local radio station blog post, he always wanted to make a police car himself based on ones he saw in his favourite Manga comics.  As it's illegal to modify a car to look like a police car and drive on the road, Morii-san tried many times to get permission from Aboshi police station headquarters nearby. They refused initially by after they got tired of that they granted him permission. However, the car can only be displayed on private property and obviously can't be registered as long as the police livery is present. The car was completed at a cost of 1.5 million yen (US$ 10,000) in addition to the car cost. A location was chosen outside Hirohata Police box where the car can easily been seen from the street. Morii-san has two other Starion road cars, both widebody GSR-VRs.
