click on my sig - http://n15m0.blogspot.com

Plenty of ideas there, be sure to click on the archived section as well :)

Dished, non-dished, black, white, chrome all go well with a white 34. Budget for around 3K for a good 2nd hand jap set with decent tyres.

wont get much change outa 4grand for my type of rims, custom offset on rear. :-S and needed spacers for the Front,

I think a nice set of R34 GTR rims will look nice and can pick them up for around 2/3k with tred.

on a 34 i'd have nismo lmgt4's 18x10 (+20 ish) with 265's

on a 34 GTR yes, on a GTT no way unless you flare or go widebody. Even then I doubt the 10" would go well on the fronts not to mention the exceptionally heavier steering.

Agree with ni5mo, i was going to get the nizmo rims, bulk expensive and the way the exchange rate is at the moment ull be payin even more.

Im sure if u were on a budget u could get some cheap junk from ozzytires, was quoted 2600 for 18s with tired deliverd. Not bad.

However i wanted to stay Jap. :-)

depends on ur budget mate...i really like avs 6's with good offset and a 8" front and 9" rear if you want to be conservative without modifying guards...just as long as the offset makes it sit flush its nice.

gram light 57s are awesome in bronze and good offset too if you can find them here in aus.

if u like dish..go rays gtc (black centres if you can) or meisters.

if you like gt4/doritech/uras ns 01's theres someone on the SAU forum selling hanbai m2 DT-05r's for a pretty good price..i reckon they'd look awesome.

*edit* found them...these look sick and the colour would look good against white.

search the forums for DTM rims, there's a place in Melbourne that sells them and ships nationwide... They're pretty cheap but look great ona R34 and they're great quality rims.

I'd recommend something with deep dish if you can find it .. they just look awesome. Also, don't make the mistake that I did and get the same width front and rear. Rears can definately be 9.5" for that nice fat look and still borderline legal. ie. 18x8.5" front and 18x9.5" rear with +35 offsets for a R34 GTT.

Make sure you get the right offset, don't just buy random rims with the wrong offsets - the offset IS important. +35 works well and is very close to spec for the above sizes.

    • Shouldn't need a "base map" for anything other than guidance to ignition tuning. You just need the engine capacity right, the injector size right, and something, almost anything, for a VE map. On an NA engine, fuelling is almost completely a function of load signal & rpm. It should run and drive with a completely flat fuel map. It will be too lean under load, but that's easily fixed. We used to tune all ECUs without any base map. There were no such things (until someone had tuned a near stock engine on one, and then they had a "base map".
    • What did you actually buy/how much did it cost? When I got mine in like.. 2017...? 2019? the aim was to run Torque for gauges via ODB2 and things like Track Addict/Laptimers/Dashcam/Reversecam/Spotify etc. Mine never broke, but I wonder if you've got the same needs (it sounds like it). Cause I liked the idea of being able to do anything with it. That said, yours also cost 3x the cost of what I spent so... food for thought.  
    • For me there is a massive difference in manufacturer or big brand crippled android (Sony, Kenwood etc) vs the sort of thing I've installed here, which is basically just a tablet in DIN form factor with open Android, and the other model of course is mirroring - Android Auto/Carplay. I hate the locked down manufacturer and AA options where they decide what apps I'm allowed to install, including the Launcher but also importantly things like Ecutek (for this car) or Real Dash (Stagea) are not supported. Plus those crippled versions tend to be slower due to both overheads and lower spec hardware. On the other hand, when this breaks I'll likely be in trouble for support....but how is that different to owning an Infiniti anyway
    • Yeah, Duncan is helping sell me back to Android devices. I've hated the whole Android head units due to their speed issues. Even in my old Hyundai Kona (2022 model), it behind the scenes was Android, and slow and shitty to start up. Once running wasn't bad, but still a good 15 to 30 seconds.
    • My roof rails are off atm on the E39 until the rust is fixed. I did find another little bit of surface rust under the rails when I took them off. As @soviet_merlin said I'd just leave them alone unless you're planning on ensuring they're properly sealed. I was on the fence about leaving them off as the delete is still a thing in BMW E39's but I feel like the car is missing something (er, it is, der) with them off and I'm looking forward to putting them back on.
