that my wheels arrived and got slapped on. :P

Thanks to Brad of West Coast Wheels for the hookup on the rubbers. (Sumitomo HTR ZII) :)

What do you guys think? Personally, well worth the wait and pennys. Wouldn't say I'd do it again but..well maybe lol.

Thanks guys. :P here are 2 others I took. Yeah they're very shiny, so shiny in fact it doesnt look 'black chrome' more like 'chrome and whatever the surroundings are' lol.

I think it might also be time for a GT Wing. Might be keeping the car a bit longer and might have to push the 'R' back to early 2010, simply coz I don't wana part with these wheels for a while eheh. :)

fixed :wub:

No more using the brakes, don't be a pussy.. keep those rims dust free haha (and tongue free from Topaz)

lol, the front tyres rub like a mutherf*ker even when goin up the slightest slope. no more drive through macdonalds. :(

very nice, just what ever you do dont put a gt wing on there.

Thanks, I just feel the back of R34 sedans lack style/aggresiveness. :wub:

And Ricca, won't need guards rolled until/if I decide to put coilies on. (king springs atm). Not sure what my plans will be with this car after about April next year, but may keep it for Auto Salon too and then move on.

    • Sounds like you've got an interesting adventure ahead here with local support if you have trouble! My guess is that, unboosted, you will be OK with a small upgrade like -9. What will happen is that once the stock ECU sees more airflow than it expects it will add a heap of fuel and pull a heap of timing to be safe because it can't understand how it could get that much air without there being an issue. You will see clouds of black smoke and it won't pull hard through the midrange and top end. So, overall it will be a bit frustrating but should be OK. If you are still nervous set the base timing back 2o through the CAS, but it will be even more sluggish everywhere. As said above through...this is not my guarantee your engine won't be blown into a million pieces, leaving you looking for very hard to find parts A better idea is get a computer with logging ASAP, wire in a wide band O2 sensor and a use remote tuner. I've done multiple cars this way and while it is not as good as a specific tune on a dyno they can get it 90% right. I'd suggest if you can afford an R33 GTR these days you can afford an ECU and tune. And if you can't afford that you sure won't be able to afford the rebuild if it goes bad in the meantime,.  
    • Yeah it would be nice if someone took the time to put that sort of information together, but there are a lot of variations in looms. I think you are making this way hard for yourself if you just want to get it running....sourcing an SR20 with the right wiring will be a billion times easier than matching the RB loom to an S15 chassis. If you do end up going this way, you just need to trace every wire in the loom with a multimeter, 95% of them will go to a location you can confirm at the ECU.....and then post it up for the next person who needs it  
    • Just top it up with water, and keep a general idea of how much you added. It is normal for water to be pushed into and pulled out of the reservoir through the cap, and it should not be more than half full or it will be likely to overflow when hot. Any decent mechanic can do a pressure test of the cooling system to confirm if you have a leak. Keep in mind if it is only leaking a little and when hot it may well evaporate before you see it hit the ground
    • I'd ask the shop what they used and use that. Mixing coolants is sometimes OK, sometimes not, and you have know the details of each coolant to know whether it's a good idea or not.
    • Is it alright to top up with just another green coolant?
