Nice as the Nismo ones are, they aren't what I'd call flares, they're just body mouldings. I think the OP actually wants more track, which they'd be useless for.

Love the car in the original post, flares or not, silver BNR33 with white rims is an epic win.

Those flairs on the original post are just beautiful. Would add immensely to track width and therefore tyre grip. But I guess for all the gay boys out there that like the poofy little ones on the purple car, well, they aren't flairs boys. Sort of like having a bonnet scoop that isn't actually sitting over a hole in the bonnet. Just glued on for the wank factor. Sorry.

the car in the original post is a gtst.

CCW is making me a set of 18x11 "classics" so i can use 295-305mm tires with a +10 offset. ill probably still space them another 5-10mm so they fill the flares out. the center will be shotpeened graphite grey, lip polished, 4inch lip.

first of all, yea im looking for more width but im also concerned with rubber patch on the road as its a 600ish hp BC stroked RWD car. im just looking for all the traction i can get. sure it will look like a steamroller but it'll hook better than a 18x9 rim with a 255 tire and handle better too.

cosmetically, they look awesome to me, theyre going on with a gtr replica bumper, hasemi sideskirts and an abflug rear bumper/diffuser, FRP doors, hasemi canards. to each his own. i have had a picture in my head for 4 months while collecting this pile of parts and these were the last piece other than the spoiler. (voltex)

i was able to track them down in the UK, the abflug ones. they look a skoach differnet than the ones pictured but i found the ones i want.

function before form. its all going into the paint booth first week of january for a full fitting and respray, r33 gtr white with double the clear coat, jambs and all.

oh yes... you must post pics... or I will hunt you down;)

ill put something up when its finished cosmetically. those CCW custom wheels are only 2350USD by the way. about, or more, than one would pay for some pizza cutter width volks with offsets that soar like falcon. they are an american site that caters more to corvette owners (about the only american car that can use an 11-12in wheel) so not too many people know about them.

    • Nope.    Grab a varex and turn it down as you get close to home, win win? 
    • So, I've had my V36 for about a month now and have already copped an "excessive exhaust noise" notification from QLD TMR, reported by someone in my local area. It's a twin as per the original, and can have a bit of a throaty note to it when idling cold 😄 and if I do get up it a bit, it can be noisy, but it did pass a roadworthy inspection before sale, so.... ... but in the interest of being a good neighbour, I do want to quieten it down a bit. Is anyone here running a quiet aftermarket cat-back on their V36 or 370Z? And the big, bold question: does an aftermarket cat-back really make much of a performance difference on these cars?
    • The wiring diagram for the R33 RB25 is freely available, and is essentially the same same as most other RBs (just with differences as to which pin # does which job). To get the ECU to power up, you just need to provide power to the ECCS relay, and have the other power feeds that come in from the top left of the wiring diagram (wrt the ECU) that give perma power to the fuel pump relay, the ECU itself, etc etc, all connected. When you put power on all these it will just come to life. It's pretty clear from the diagram what needs to happen. Just follow the lines from the 12V + supply stuff in the top left over towards the ECU. I've even posted snips of such diagrams (not for vanilla 25, I think for Neo and 26) to various threads here in the last few months, talking about what it takes to get the fuel pump and FPCM up and going. Search these up and they will help get you started on doing the same with the vanilla 25 diagram. Hell, for all I know, I've done the same with that one in years past and have forgotten.
    • Yep...so unless someone posts up the answer you will need to probe from the ECU connector to the dash plug with a multi meter in continuity mode to trace the wires.  Note the ECU has multiple - and + (and across different key settings - Battery, IGN and Start) and most likely the power is fed from the connector(s) that is normally near the left hand headlight.
    • Thanks Duncan, I am actually just trying to get the Rb turning and running with the RB25DET S2 original loom itself  I am just trying to get it going outside the body and not thinking about the S15 or trying to match anything to the S15 loom at all I am only trying to see if anyone has done this and what pin they found to be the ignition trigger and ECU+/- on the dash connector, that's about it. Thanks
