My options are either 18" origins from japanese import spares or lenso widetracks. I like dish :P

My car is sonic silver. Anyone have pics of silver car with giold mags. The widetrack comes in black with polished lip aswell. Even that might look good. What are your thoughts guys? Also what is the quality of these? I know they can not be compared to jap spec

didja have to make two threads? black is best on silver imo, but the jap rims are likely to be faaaaaaaar better than the lenso's. post up the offests of both sets of wheels. gold doesnt look too bad actually. my pick is the jap goldies

didnt mean to make two threads. Was a accident. Yeh if i had the $$$$$ gold vork gtc would be the pick. Hey if i had the $$$ in the first place then i wudnt be writing up this thread either.

added the black

i found out abit more info on the orgins. They are sold in jap by that name but are made in taiwan...But the quaity must be ok to be selling in japan? Any1 got ne gold on silver??? Also these particular gold rims have offset +15. They should be good?

i got Osaka RS5 rims on my 34 atm, 19x8.5 all around, shadow chrome with a polished lip. look tuff and prob bout the same price as what ur looking at. They cost about 280-300 per rim and then tyres.

all up i paid 1120 for rims and tyres where 200 each so all up 1920. tyres arent the best things but good enough. 235x35 on fronts and 245x35 rear. ill post a pic when i get home from work.

imo black rims on a silver r34 look awesome .. but to make it even better, get a black/cf aftermarket bonnet and side mirrors. There's a car on here .. can't remember the name of the poster, that looks exactly like that .. it is HOT.

hey guys heres a pic of my rims as i said i would take. have a loook, they look chromy from the angles i took but the centre is actually shadow chrom, similar colour to car with polished lip

looking for rims of the following...

18x9.5 rears, +38 offset

18x8.5 fronts, +38 offset

looking to do matte black on a silver r34. preferrably something like te37s or the dc6's from taleb tyres.

what do you guys think, and recommend?

+15 is the only offset avaliable damit. And i really like them too. My car is lowered with tein. I dont want to flare the guards so what other possible mods can be done? Is it worth the effort or just go look at another style of rim??

    • If as it's stalling, the fuel pressure rises, it's saying there's less vacuum in the intake manifold. This is pretty typical of an engine that is slowing down.   While typically is agree it sounds fuel related, it really sounds fuel/air mixture related. Since the whole system has been refurbished, including injectors, pump, etc, it's likely we've altered how well the system is delivering fuel. If someone before you has messed with the IACV because it needed fiddling with as the fuel system was dieing out, we need to readjust it back. Getting things back to factory spec everywhere, is what's going to help the entire system. So if it idles at 400rpm with no IACV, that needs raising. Getting factory air flow back to normal will help us get everything back in spec, and likely help chase down any other issues. Back on IACV, if the base idle (no IACV plugged in) is too far out, it's a lot harder for the ECU to control idle. The IACV duty cycle causes non linear variations in reality. When I've tuned the idle valves in the past, you need to keep it in a relatively narrow window on aftermarket ecus to stop them doing wild dances. It also means if your base idle is too low, the valve needs to open too much, and then the smallest % change ends up being a huge variation.
    • I guess one thing that might be wrong is the manifold pressure.  It is a constant -5.9 and never moves even under 100% throttle and load.  I would expect it to atleast go to 0 correct?  It's doing this with the OEM MAP as well as the ECU vacuum sensor. When trying to tune the base map under load the crosshairs only climb vertically with RPM, but always in the -5.9 column.
    • AHHHH gotchaa, I'll do that once I am home again. I tried doing the harness with the multimeter but it seems the car needed a jump, there was no power when it was in the "ON" position. Not sure if I should use car battery jump starter or if its because the stuff that has been disconnect the car just does send power.
    • As far as I can tell I have everything properly set in the Haltech software for engine size, injector data, all sensors seem to be reporting proper numbers.  If I change any injector details it doesnt run right.    Changing the base map is having the biggest change in response, im not sure how people are saying it doesnt really matter.  I'm guessing under normal conditions the ECU is able to self adjust and keep everything smooth.   Right now my best performance is happening by lowering the base map just enough to where the ECU us doing short term cut of about 45% to reach the target Lambda of 14.7.  That way when I start putting load on it still has high enough fuel map to not be so lean.  After 2500 rpm I raised the base map to what would be really rich at no load, but still helps with the lean spots on load.  I figure I don't have much reason to be above 2500rpm with no load.  When watching other videos it seems their target is reached much faster than mine.  Mine takes forever to adjust and reach the target. My next few days will be spent making sure timing is good, it was running fine before doing the ECU and DBW swap, but want to verify.  I'll also probably swap in the new injectors I bought as well as a walbro 255 pump.  
    • It would be different if the sealant hadn't started to peel up with gaps in the glue about ~6cm and bigger in some areas. I would much prefer not having to do the work take them off the car . However, the filler the owner put in the roof rack mount cavities has shrunk and begun to crack on the rail delete panels. I cant trust that to hold off moisture ingress especially where I live. Not only that but I have faded paint on as well as on either side of these panels, so they would need to come off to give the roofline a proper respray. My goal is to get in there and put a healthy amount of epoxy instead of panel filler/bog and potentially skin with carbon fiber. I have 2 spare rolls from an old motorcycle fairing project from a few years back and I think it'd be a nice touch on a black stag.  I've seen some threads where people replace their roof rack delete with a welded in sheet metal part. But has anyone re-worked the roof rails themselves? It seems like there is a lot of volume there to add in some threads and maybe a keyway for a quick(er) release roof rack system. Not afraid to mill something out if I have to. It would be cool to have a cross bar only setup. That way I can keep the sleek roofline that would accept a couple bolts to gain back that extra utility  3D print some snazzy covers to hide the threaded section to be thorough and keep things covered when not using the rack.
