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.

lol mods are the least of ur worries going through inspection mate, its the roadworthy stuff ull get pinned on. it depends on the inspector and their impression of ur car, but as an example i have been failed for things like a small tear in my drivers seat, a patch of oil about 1" in diametre in my engine bay etc etc, ive been pretty lucky in the past though as i go completely over the car, tidy everything up, degrease the engine, spray the underside of the car, and since ive been through the process and know what they look at i pass 1st go most of the time. when my car came in from Japan i took it to a compliance place and on top of the actual compliance work they gave me 2 pages worth of shit to fix/replace myself before going through regency, and the car was in pretty good nick, so there's not heaps to do before i go through each time now days as most of it has been fixed to get through regency not long before but its still at least about 20hrs of work to get the car ready for regency each time.

I want what SHYGRL's rolling on, very nice looking rims. They fit a GTR?

Or i want some Volk Racing GT-C's in the gold. very noice :cool:

definitely tough rims, i have the same ones but in bronze. (17x9, +20 and +30) so they wont suit a GTR unless u fit 10mm spacers to the front.

these will also be for sale in the next couple of weeks.

To all those saying you must buy "jap rims" this is what wheelworx can supply :cool:

It's all about knowing what offset you need and ordering accordingly, NOT going to Knob Jane and asking for "rims that will fit your skyline" because then you will get whatever they have in 5x114.3 in absolute shit offset

so you mean, 34 gtr rims? lol.

hmm, i guess i do, haha.

weight can also be a factor when buying aus(china) rims over japs rims, but if your just cruising in your car and its not a track car that needs to save weight then it really doesnt matter

it does matter, just not as much. light wheels help ur suspension absorb bumps better and transfer less shock into the chassis, better ride comfort, handling (grip), accleration and braking. how much u notice it depends i guess.

    • There is no difference between a 17x8 and an 18x8. The total diameter of the tyre needs to remain +/- the same (so you don't mess up the gearing, speedo reading, and clearance when turning front wheels..... so you just need to use a lower profile tyre on th 18 than you do on the 17. /rocket surgery.
    • I thought the same to start with. But then I thought it was one of those LCAs where the end of the ARB goes through a bushing in the LCA itself, instead of having an end link.
    • Yeah - I mean, go the other way. Smaller range. Not larger.
    • To re-cap, I bought: https://www.alibaba.com/product-detail/Lsailt-8G-Infiniti-Q50-Q60-2014_1601171829627.html?spm=a2756.trade-list-buyer.0.0.2cd476e9FTIlKE As you can see, if I bought 20 it was $653, but I bought 1 so it was $1,170. I was very tempted to buy 2 and resell 1 at 25% cheaper. @MBS206, I am not sure if they do a Kluger one, here is their list but it might be there under a global model name: http://www.lsailt.com/product/android-interface?page=1 Keep in mind these full android replacements have basically all the bits a phone does (cpu, ram, storage, wifi, bluetooth, usb interfaces) other than a screen (it uses a host), thus the $800+ cost. Android Auto screen mirroring is MUCH cheaper as it's just a cut down shell, input mirroring and output mirroring BTW I also need that "screen off" feature, it is much harder to see wildlife even if a dash is reasonably dark. Both the Fuga and V37 have display off buttons for night use, they just come back on for a second or 3 if you interact with it, eg skip a song.
    • I use FCC car launcher. It has an option for different backgrounds, so instead of turning the screen off you can swipe 'up' to a black screen with no background/icons. (mine has the time on it only). It's kinda nice. Also lets you use gestures to say swipe to go to next song, etc.
