RAYS18chromerims.jpg

i just bought those from japan for the shop and also got some major dished 18's coming aswell, and will help people if they contact me and we work something out.

I'm after some 19 or 20 inch VSKF's (or something similar) x 9ish and 10.5ish in a 20 to 25 offset

and yes v35's are 5 x 114

not meaning to sound rude at all here, but an aristo in a Skylines Australia stand seems slightly out of place to me. Spose its upto everyone but personally i wouldnt put a Toyota in a Nissan stand.

no offence to the aristo owner.. but i agree.. think it should be skylines only...

I agree with that... Dont get me wrong i love all sorts of imports etc but id hate to see a supra, celica etc in the SKYLINES display.

If you could say it would cost roughly X amount over the $80 it would be helpful for me..... to mayb say yes

Yes, you will most likely be looking at $50-$70 on top. First priority is to get the Entry fees all paid, the rest can all be worked out after.

So next friday at say 7:30 we all meet up, i just need a suggestion of where.. somewhere indoors and warm, possibly grab a bite to eat? Id say like Cafe Primo or something, least we can just sit around a large table and discuss ideas.

Ive had someone pm me with an awesome idea for our theme - well the backdrop for it, which we can work around. You guys will love it and suits the jap cars VERY well. :)

    • Hi everyone, I've been wrestling with this for a while now and have been trying to find out the cause. For context, the turbos used are Garrett 2860 -5s, the BOV is a BNR32 HKS SSQV IV kit, the car is currently tuned to ~470 whp on 17.5 psi. The car drives normally, pulls well when it doesn't happen, and I can replicate it fairly easily. It does not sound like turbo shuffle or flutter. The engine has only a thousand or so miles and has had this behavior since it was completed. After my engine was built for my R32 GTR, I noticed that the car now sometimes makes an air discharge sound on what appears to be positive boost pressure that sounds really similar to a BOV. I had thought that it was a BOV issue but even when replacing it with a brand new unit, the sound persisted. It seems like it's coming from the passenger side but I may be mistaken. The closest scenario I could find was this post here https://www.gtr.co.uk/threads/maybe-a-boost-leak-opinions.147955/https://www.gtr.co.uk/threads/maybe-a-boost-leak-opinions.147955/ started by @yakshii and it sounds very similar. As in, at partial throttle once I reach positive boost I begin to hear the same psh psh psh psh psh sound like air is leaking somewhere when I keep the throttle in the same position. It most commonly happens in 4th gear at around 3-3.5k RPM and 5th gear around 2.5-3k RPM, which seems to coincide with normal positive boost thresholds. It might be similar to what @Austrian GTR mentioned about his own HKS SSQV. Notable difference would be that when he applies more throttle when it happens, it stops. In my scenario if I apply more throttle during this repeated psh psh psh sound, the cadence of the sound gets faster and louder rather than stopping. If I lift off slightly and apply throttle again, it will normally stop and pull without issue. I've checked all rubber couplers to ensure that they are tight, but have not gotten the opportunity to properly do a pressurized boost leak test. If anyone has had similar experiences or thoughts on what might be the cause, I'd be very keen to hear them. I also have a video of it happening from inside the cabin, if that would make it easier to understand: https://youtu.be/2zqZXcx8jbA
    • I'd want at least $40K for mine, but thats easy to say cos I'm not selling anyway.
    • That's incorrect. We have 4 seasons, consisting of pre winter, winter, post winter and a small glimpse of hope! 
    • I spotted a black C34 in Mittagong this morning!
