get the black ones man. if you can get the race in shadow chrome tho, do that, itl look mint trust me. but blacks always a winner, white looks a bit cheap and nasty imo, and on that design doesnt work well...

As in the ones N-DAWG photoshopped? I have always been a fan of white and black, chrome isn't my taste (cheap ricey lancer looking :)). Although shadow chrome isn't half bad..... I'll probably get the black ones cogs photoshopped but I'd still like to see the white ones, may have to get 18s to hide the stock height lolz

iv got 18s on mine, but i think mine was lowered in japan so you know. yours looks more like stock height..17s look ok but 18s look perfect on a 33.. thats my opinion anyways. i still say go the apaches that cogs did...they just suit the car so well :) im constantly getting complimented for mine

Aight cheers, I've sent him a msg anyway and am waiting for him to get back to me. I'd probably buy the rims only as i have to factor in the $250 shipping cost (ouch) and ill find some cheapish 18 tires as im only on Ls atm. (Also NA means no power - no need for expensive performance tires :thumbsup:)

ouch yeah perth shipping would be painful. yeah well cheap tyres would be ok i spose. i know i had shit tires on my stockies (for compliance) i could light em up no worries...theres a surprising amount of torque in an NA :) thats why i went with namebrand tires (nexen N7000s). they may not be the best performance tire but they still grip awesome :thumbsup: its reassuring when you can pull out of tight bends quick and not loose traction....

Lol, my actual reason for new wheels is to preserve the tires on my stockies for maybe a track day or 2, thats later on in life though :thumbsup: (super expensive goodyear ventura which i got pretty much new for $50ea). I won't be doing anything stupid with my car cause i love it too much :) So i'm not afraid of cheap tires....

    • Yea - I mean I've seen my fuel pump which is decades old and uh, while I'm not saying this with real knowledge... but I sure get the ick at using anything in the fuel system that produced the state of that pump. Many years ago I went through multiple pumps (and strainers) before I dropped the tank to clean it out with extreme violence. I'm talking the car would do maybe 50km before coming to a halt, which resulted in me cleaning out the filter with some brake cleaner and going on my way. None of my stuff ever looked like what came out of your fuel tank. I don't think I'd be happy with it unless every single component was replaced (or at least checked/cleaned/confirmed to be clean here).
    • I'm not going to recommend an EBC pad. I don't like them. Just about anything else would suit me better. I've been using Intima pads for a while now.
    • Agreed, and in particular the earth strap that should go from the subframe to the chassis but it often broken or left off. There is a section in the R32 workshop manual you can follow for troubleshooting if you don't see anything suspicious, and depending where you are (there is no location on your user profile) you should be able to get your hands on a second hand replacement unit still if needed
    • Yeah they mention as a R34 for 2.5 Turbo...but then again thos "small" were also for R34 by that different site. But i look into it and that 310mm EBC is for R34 GTT. And by those you linked the specs are the same 🙂    EDIT: I found these on one site here: DBA 4000 series T3 DBA42304S They are 310mm...and it says are for R34GTT...are there good? EDIT2: ok they have pads too.  What "color" should i get for street use? I dont want/need some noisy ones...(and if they are not that dusty that is good too)
    • Yeah, shame. Maybe  driver's carpet is available 🙏. I am waiting for both amayama and nangun to confirm.
