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!

    • After using a protractor for an actually accurate assessment of what is required,  and by NOT using my uncalibrated eyeball I worked out I need a 25° silicone bend from the TB ro the MAF, but, my choice was either a 30° or a 23° (23° is a weird spec), so I grabbed the 23° one from Raceworks I also grabbed 1mtr of 3" straight from Just Jap, I needed 350mm, but they only had 300mm, or 1mtr lengths....meh Also ordered a 1/2" hose bulkhead fitting from fleabay, this has a smoothish mushroom looking head (they are designed for below the water line of boats) that will fit inside the bend, the hose bit and threaded bit looks to long, but nothing that a hacksaw cannot fix if required, the hose will then just get jamed on the threaded bit up to the retaining nut Fingers crossed and the unsightly amount of hose clamps will be reduced down to 4 once all the parts arrive 
    • Oil change does not trigger code 21. Code 21 is for coilpacks primary side connection. You can try to clear the code with a battery disconnect, hold down the brake pedal to drain capacitors through the brake lights with the ignition on for 10-15 seconds before you reconnect the battery. I have seen R35 coil conversion permanently cause this code with no ill effects so it might be the resistance it wants to see isn't quite right on one or more coilpacks. Could be inside the ECU, could be the harness, could be a coil. You can test it all if you want or just ignore until the car actually starts misfiring.
    • I forgot you have a Nistune ECU. Use Nistune to do all the tests I mentioned instead of faffing with 30+ year old electrical connectors. You can read MAF volts off that too, there are reference values in the service manual to tell you roughly what it should be in different conditions.
    • No. I think it might be the AFM. Hence the use of the terms "swaptronics", which implies the use of swapping out electronics for the purpose of diagnosis. It's about the only way to prove that a small/niggling/whatever problem with an AFM or a CAS or similar is actually caused by that AFM/CAS/whatever. A known good item swapped in that still gives the same problem is likely to be caused somewhere else. They're all the same. Spraying AFMs with cleaner is an each way bet between cleaning it and f**king it.
    • Oh wow! This might actually work amazingly. Do you know the ratio of the diff? I was told the only thing you need to make sure of is if the front & rear diff ratios are the same. Ours is a 4.083 Thanks!
