Hey all,

Just wondering if anyone in Hobart or thereabouts might be able to lend me a set of 4 wheels with road legal tires for a few hours this saturday afternoon so I can get my R32 (5 stud) across the pits - Mine have a bit of camber wear, and being a gts4 I would like to keep them all the same. I have a set of spare wheels I if needed while I borrow yours, and I will pick up and return the wheels with beers of your choice :P If you can help me out I would really appreciate it, shoot me a PM if you can. Thanks everybody!

Ah yeah i have Funz's 17's you can borrow as well Dave :(

dopnt quite think they have legal tred for a pits pass lol. might need them this weekend as i might be selling them :D. ive got 2 stock r33 rims with legal rubber at home and if i ask my friend for my other 2 rims back they easily have legal tred available.**

(messaged my friend to see if i can get them back , will be available to borrow if so, she said she can get her other tyres fixed and get mine back so ill have an update soon , PM me for more info)

All good mate i was only joking about yours.

I have a full set of 16's with brand new rubber that Dave can use ;)

cool cool then :) wanna put new rubber on my rims then :)

No worries, how big's your budget ;)

Nice one, thanks guys :) I cant wait to get this car on the road!

Your welcome to grab them anytime mate but be warned they are brand new so i will know if you have any fun :banana:

Thanks Ben - I dont think I will be going too silly, the last thing I want is to draw any attention to myself driving an unregistered car! I will give you a shout as soon as I know my rear hub has its new ball joint pressed in and I will be all set for saturday :(

    • I mean it's a bit late to say "This won't have any tangible effect and it is not worth spending more than about three seconds on it, please just enjoy the car" But I said it anyway. Does the pod actually get any airflow in that position behind a bumper like that?
    • Hey guys - apologies for digging this up. Has this website been shutdown or is the outage temporary?
    • So, went shopping at Just Jap for things that might work for the intake  After some trial fitting there I ended up with a 3" x 45° silicone bend, a 3" x 300mm alloy straight, and a humped joiner, some minor trimming will be required to shorten some of the stuff, but nothing that is beyond my "ham fisted" skills The guy at Just Jap was most helpful as we had all sorts of joiners,  bends and stuff out trial fitting  Laying it out above the stuff in there it seems everything will fit nicely, and looking at it, it is probably the way I should have been looking at doing it from the beginning, probably..... In the end it is a front bar off job anyway to remove the original stuff behind the front bar that is taking up the required realestate needed, so maybe a Thursday or Friday job And because I'm a hopeless consumer, I grabbed some new steel wheel nuts, the current ones are a spline drive type with a "security" socket, that somehow someone keeps misplacing, the new ones are a basic black steel 17mm hex socket In other news: I just did my "final" tax return, I am now officially a old retired veteran pensioner, and I'm milking the system for all it's worth,  life is good
    • I hadn't thought about the variable power steering assist. Presumably, it will always be the same level of assist as you get in an S14. The R32/3/4 are either helliishly heavy (at low speeds) if the solenoid is not powered at all, or hellishly too light (at high speed) if it is powered all the time. I presume that it is PWM controlled on those cars. I hadn't thought about the S cars not having variable assist. ugh. What crappy plebby cars they must be!  
    • Hmm yeah that is a good point. It looks like it'll just bolt in with no real issue besides maybe the bushings being different. My other concern was that 2 pin plug that I assume is used in some way to control the rack solenoid depending on the speed signal from the ecu. The DMAX rack doesn't even have that plug though so, don't think it'll matter. Might just order the rack and see how it goes. Will update this when I figure something out
