yeah man go the green, and compliment them with some tasteful green vinyl graphics or paint the wing mirrors the same green and maybe a green windscreen sun visor thingy...

do it, stand out from the crowd

I like sarcasm, but .. you know you do have ricer vynils on your car in your sig ?

Adam, those cars are sick !

regardless of whether you go JDM gangster tyte or aussie offroad superstar suspension style... the base rule you have to adhere to is that flat colours go with flat colours, and metallics work with other metallics.

Metallic paintjob with flat green = fail

and anything with metallic green wheels = fail

flat white with flat green wheel = win

metallic silver with black or metallic wheel (try a gramlight with a titanium lip) = win

umm it wasn't sarcasm at all... I reckon go the vinyls... its not 'ricer' its 'stylised', please don't cheapen it...

yes I design and produce vinyls...

in order to get away with that... your car needs to have a phat stance that that looks so cranky that people wont worry about what colour your wheels are... like a big bald tattooed guy wearing a pink mesh singlet... he can pull it off, because noones gonna tell him he cant. haha.

it needs to be lower and the rims bigger and wider or spaced out, dish wouldnt go astray... with alcons or endless brakes behind them.

its one thing to change your wheel colour because you want to, its another to change it because you cant afford to change wheels.

one more thing... the big question... can you see them when you are behind the wheel?? does the colour directly affect the performance of the car?? is it really that important that you wanna show people that you like to be different?? you can do shit like that on a budget s13 or gtst... but not on a 33 gtr... its not the type of car to be cheap on or try to be different.

i personally dont like the black wheels... but i think it would be a waste of time to paint them green, maybe a dark gunmetal grey would look good.

cheers

    • My guesstimate, with no real numbers to back it up, is it won't effect it greatly at all.its not a huge change in position, and I can't see the air flow changing from in turbulence that much based on distance, and what's in front of it. Johnny and Brad may have some more numbers to share from experience though.
    • Which solenoid? Why was it changed? Again, why was this done? ...well, these wear..but ultimately, why was it changed? Did you reset the idle voltage level after fitment? I'm just a tad confused ~ the flash code doesn't allude to these items being faulty, so in my mind the only reason to change these things, would be some drive-ability issue....and if that's the case, what was the problem? Those questions aside, check if the dropping resistor is OK ...should be 11~14 ohms (TCU doesn't throw a flash code for this) ~ also, these TCU designs have full time power (to keep fault code RAM alive), and I think that'll throw a logic code (as opposed to the 10 hardware codes), if that power is missing (or the ram has gone bad in the TCU, which you can check..but that's another story here perhaps).
    • Question for people who "know stuff" I am looking at doing the new intake like the one in the picture (the pictured is designed for the OEM TB and intake plenum), this design has the filter behind the front bar, but, the filter sits where the OEM duct heads into the front bar, and the standard aperture when the OEM ducting is removed allows the filter to pulled back out of the front bar into the engine bay for servicing, a simple blanking plate is used to seal the aperture behind the filter This will require a 45° silicone hose from the TB, like the alloy pipe that is currently there, to another 45° silicone hose to get a straight run to the aperture in the front bar Question: how will it effect the tune if I move the MAF about 100-150mm forward, the red is around where my MAF is currently, and the green would be where it would end up Like this This is the hole the filter goes through  Ends up like this LOL..Cheers    
    • Despite the level up question, actually I do know what that is....it is a pressure sender wire.  So check out around the oil filter for an oil pressure sender, or maybe fuel pressure near the filter or on the engine. Possibly but less likely coolant pressure sensor because they tend to be combined temp/pressure senders if you have one. Could also be brake pressure (in a brake line somewhere pre ABS) but maybe I'm the only one that has that on a skyline.
    • Pull codes via the self-diagnosis procedure. As far as I can tell this is just a sign of transmission issues but not a code unto itself.
