how hard would it be to get something like that done? theyre 2 piece, so i guess i just find a place that can do them and take the wheels apart?

i just think my car needs a couple of finishing touches, im getting a tint, and thought maybe the rims, but not totally sure yet.

might need to do some photoshopping.

yeh ive had my 2 piece wheels done, just pull them apart and give them the disk. budget for about $200ish for the 4. i recommend these guys for all ur powder coating needs:

Edwardstown Powdercoating

9 Lagunta Ave Edwardstown SA 5039

ph: (08) 8277 9500

they have a lot of experience with wheels and are a great bunch of blokes. i went there because they quoted the best price and didnt screw around with the quote either.

well was just under that i think, brand new via ems. no tyres. You pay more for the wmc which sucks.

and also 18x10 so more again being a bigger size.

*starts putting money in the piggy bank for a set of 18x10 XD9's in gun metal grey

your rims look foookin mint

while you were down there Stewy, did you see the blue 34 GTR Nur?

The guy's brother has one and parks it outside.

nah, he was talking about it at the time though, he hadnt brought it in yet though. only had the yellow FD at the time.

haha, if it gets defected it gets defect, big deal. ill just have to rejoin ns so i can post 40 threads about how i got defected and how much the cops suck.

:cool:

Noooo! NS ain't like that :D

Adrain, i took some close up pics, so you can see how much they hang out the guard, so i'll show ya tonight if your coming out to dinner.

the car isnt actually that bad.

if/when it gets defected all ill need is stock wheels, stock suspension, and stock exhaust. then just remove boost controller and that little shit.

guages etc are legal, so it wont be that much hard work.

yeh he'd go to the murray bridge one which i heard wasnt as bad, but still not fun.

i live in mclaren vale and i dont have to go to regency if i dont want too :)

i go to willunga inspection station. its the same guy there every time and when he sees me pull up he shakes his head and laughs but hes pretty cool!

    • Update 4: Hi all. The car drives again! Haven't driven for long, only to store it in the garage again, but the test drive was successful. The coolant and oil leaks seem to be fixed for now. Temps on the engine were also very good, while moving I never even saw 80C water during the approx. 30 minute drive. Ate up all the coolant in the reservoir though so will have to fill that even more when I go to the car next time. One thing that pisses me off is that the RPM gauge is still f**ked, I even resoldered the board twice and used copper paste on the silly screws that are used as connections. Next time I take it out I'll take apart the board and fit new components, I'll see if I can get a replacement IC for it.  I have an appointment set for 22nd of September for the engine tune to 370hp. Alignment also still needs to be done. My hope is that I can get all the legal stuff over with by the end of this season. Anyone of you have advice regarding intercoolers? Currently there is an APEXI core fitted, one of those weird hybrid ones, 600x270x76. I don't think it's bad but it's not new and now I still have the chance to change it now to legally include it in the paperwork. Only issue is that the only options that would arrive in time are a HKS Type R intercooler or generic Ebay spec intercoolers comparable to a JustJap one. Ideally I'd order a Plazmaman but it takes over a month to receive which would mean making the car legal has to wait until next season. Would love to hear some input on this. Same story for my injectors, the previous owner was a nunce and put ID 1050x on the engine. They work but are obviously not ideal at "normal" power levels. But I don't see a reason to change them unless the tuner says it's necessary. I read online before buying a different exhaust that the top secret style rear diffusers won't fit due to the size of the rear resonators. My buddy and I made it work by slightly "adjusting the shape" of the mounting bracket and making some spacers out of 3d print for the mounting bolts. Fits like a charm. Just putting this here in case someone has this problem. Even the hefty HKS Silent Hi Power rear can fits without hitting anything.
    • Well they got my money but they are not getting my gearbox ! 
    • It's needed for rolling idle up, and I think it is a decider on VCT also.
    • I mean, not really. Link ECU's can absolutely still have errors from the ECU thinking it's getting a sensor it's not expecting. I would imagine the speed at the ECU level in Nistune does absolutely nothing anyway? I assume the ECU does not do any fancy TC stuff with regards to front+rear wheel speed or anything of that like anyway. Someone who uses Nistune may be more fluent in it. 
    • Not yet quite as bad as what we've seen a Jim Berry clutch do in an R32 GTR though when it decided to cut a chassis rail in half... Still very very gnarly and a great reason to avoid.
