factory spacers?? doesn't sound right..

a lot of those on the G35 forums run spacers because it gives the car a nicer look with the wheels flush with the guard rather than sunken in a bit. they're not legal though in any shape or form

also, finding a set of OEM 19s isn't an easy task. i think the best way to get a good set is to get some shipped over from the USA. you could get a good set with new tyres shipped for around 2k - 2.5k which is cheaper than buying from japan or locally in many instances

I've been checking the various forums incessantly.. can't find any locally unfortunately. Still likely cheaper from the USA due to volumes. Don't any of you go stealing my wheels!

I suppose my 2003 6MT doesn't have an interface for the Tyre Pressure Sensors?

Any ideas what a set of stock 18" rims is worth locally?

Well funny that.. you have the OEM 18s and want the 19s, I have the OEM 19s and want the 18s, only problem is, I dont want to sell my 19s :ninja: too bad ur in Melbourne too as I can't find any OEM 18s anwhere either.

Best thing about using OEM wheels is that it sits perfectly on the hubring without requiring the use of a plastic centric hubring locator

Ha! Come on, you know you want them!

Does anyone know if I can use the Tyre Pressure Sensors on my 2003 coupe or is it only an option from 2004 onwards?

Nismo (and all those who are interested),

I found out at the last minute that the tyres were completely unroadworthy (thought they'd be ok for a few weeks) so I had to put on a set of brand new Hankook K104s (225/45 front, 245/45 back) to last me until the new wheels arrive.

I was originally going to sell the rims without useful tyres, but if you are still interested in paying a fair price with 99% tyres, then the answer is definitely yes.

    • Working through possible solutions of converting my mechanical speedo.    Anyone know what type of speedo sensor the factory r34 gtr getrag has ? what the output is ? I assume its not a VSS and more a voltage like earlier speedo sensors ? Can an ECU read it ?  
    • roof rail delete used to be a thing, they were made locally for a while too
    • I can get more photos of it here soon and I plan to make a thread detailing the process. I received the car this way and it sorely needs refinishing. That is probably the most appealing photo of it. Up close it is fading, cracked, and needs to be re-glued. Depending on their condition I'm on the fence between refinishing or making a new set.  Another angle hiding the pimples and razor pumps  
    • According to this thread the RS4V with build plate RC40 comes with the R200 diff @ 4.083 ratio as well (mine has said RC40 denotation). We may need to check if the axle stubs are the same pattern as well. The auto subframes have longer axles. However I think yours being a later Series 2 as well, we should have the same bolt pattern for the diff stubs. Unless your upgraded rear also has upgraded axles. Either way, I would not be opposed to pulling the covers to check so I can inspect that  fancy rear core  Also I don't have HICAS. I don't believe that should change things but I hope the people here with heaps more experience than me can correct me if I'm wrong   Let me know if you want to attempt to make this work and I can get some pictures of mine from under the car. 
    • It's not that straightforward. For example I have had this code because my ignitor/power transistor wires were unplugged. It knows something is wrong but has no idea what it means. If you want to actually diagnose this I recommend following the service manual flowchart for code 21. Ohm out the harness, coilpacks, inspect the ECU, etc. And again, it's entirely possible for there to be no problem at all but if you're running a different coilpack it'll trigger the code because it doesn't like what it sees.
