For reference we have 265 tyres (on R34 GTR rims) on our Project Car (R33 GTSt) and the lips only had to be slightly rolled. The offset has been so far and that includes a trip from Melb to Syd without any scrubbing or bottoming out on a track/street setting with the GReddy coilovers.

Maybe if they were moulded to the body so it looked smooth, instead of looking cheap with rivets and glue.

Maybe!

I dont really think they suit the skylines natural shape,... a bit like that purple skylines overkill wing... just to much

daym that looks pretty solid. they need to either mould the flares so it looks smooth or just give that rough look to the whole car. did any1 find out where to get these? mite try it out on my 33

Not that it matters either way but a Torana slr 5000 will take 17 x 10 with room to spare.

I'd like to see some work meister s1's on an a9x, would look good I think.

As you said function over form with the fllares and it's not as if they're hideous or even close.

+1 for the molding but o so hot, you have me thinkin know dam you dam you to hell I want.

Look f#*king tough no matter what anyone says HOT HOT HOT, you must post up some pic once you finish :P

why is electrical tape over headlight and brke lights so HOT!?

youve obviously never been on a track.

track workers would rather pick up one tape encrusted piece of plastic when you f**k up your car, than sweep a big scattered mess off the track.

nah, he was being a smart ass about track cars always having tape as if it was a fashion statement. if not, i apologize, this is a pretty multi-cultural forum, and sometimes i dont pick up on aussie-ness too well.

Yes. I have been to the track

Yes. I realise its to keep the glass in large chunks. And to lessen the risk of missing a peice and somone else ending up in a puncture and another accident (for eg.)

Yes. I have done this too on downhill evets held at Mt Panorama where there it is quite narrow and there is no run off and its straight into the wall

Yes. I still think it looks freaking hot!

No. I dont care about vehicular fasion. Function over form FTMFW!

    • Not sure the US can import anything other than the C34 Stagea's, but if you can and you need to to tow, DO NOT under any circumstances get an M35 Stagea. If it is just as a family car and your country/state allows it, absolutely and definitely get an M35 (3.5L if possible as it is effectively a 350Z) over a C34.
    • Punch your VIN (nm35-xxxxxx) into Amayama.com You can see everything there quite easily.
    • Thanks for that, I'll check it all out. I can always do the brakes last anyway if its a problem.  The 16's are super cool, if they do fit I'll cruise around with them for a bit.  
    • Well, that's kinda the point. The calipers might interfere with the inside of the barrels 16" rims are only about 14" inside the barrels, which is ~350mm, and 334mm rotors only leave about 8mm outboard for the caliper before you get to 350, And.... that;s not gunna be enough. If the rims have a larger ID than that, you might sneak it in. I'd be putting a measuring stick inside the wheel and eyeballing the extra required for the caliper outboard of the rotor before committing to bolting it all on.
    • OK, so again it has been a bit of a break but it was around researching what had been done since I didn't have access to Neil's records and not everything is obvious without pulling stuff apart. Happily the guy who assembled the engine had kept reasonable records, so we now know the final spec is: Bottom end: Standard block and crank Ross 86.5mm forgies, 9:1 compression Spool forged rods Standard main bolts Oil pump Spool billet gears in standard housing Aeroflow extended and baffled sump Head Freshly rebuilt standard head with new 80lb valve springs Mild porting/port match Head oil feed restrictor VCT disabled Tighe 805C reground cams (255 duration, 8.93 lift)  Adjustable cam gears on inlet/exhaust Standard head bolts, gasket not confirmed but assumed MLS External 555cc Nismo injectors Z32 AFM Bosch 023 Intank fuel pump Garret 2871 (factory housings and manifold) Hypertune FFP plenum with standard throttle   Time to book in a trip to Unigroup
