i was doin this same this about 5 months ago. i got a black r34 gtt and decided to go 18's instead of 19's which was a good idea i recon. There black with chrome lip. there big enough, look good i think and i recon any bigger would b a bad move performace wise... i recon all black or black chrome lip in 18's, and then smoke all the lights tint the windows and make it look evil haha. by the way, NZMO i like ya car mate, looks awesome.

fark after seeing that photo edit of your yellow R34 julz, making me want to get a kit now..good luck with the choice of rims ay, check out JPC in ozzy park, heaps of nice jap rims to choose from

dont even bother getting genuine jap race wheels if your budget is below 3000.

the rule of thumb is 20s are pretty stupid but ive only ever seen 20s look good with massive offsets which your only gonna get in jap wheels and thats more like $4000.

unfortunately buddy i dont think by the sounds of things your gonna be spending anywhere near as much as that. if you get jap wheels they gonna be 18s with +60 offsets or something stupid.

get 18s because rubber is cheap, unless you have a massive kit stay away from anything bigger.

tempetyres

oztyres.

have fun

as for wheels on a black car.

black on black is a no brainer, and everyone loves polished lips with black spokes

Chrome IS ghey IMHO.

yes, with fery few exceptions... chrome meisters/professors look sweeeeeet on black cars... and i'm NOT gonna take no for an answer! :P

although i do prefer my black professors with red nuts :)

Yeah I see where you are coming from... Chrome Meisters are a nice style of wheels, but still I prefer the Polished Silver alloy lip then chrome.

I always thought it was just Polished Alloy and chrome is cheap shit.

What wheels are the ones on the supra? they dont look cheap, i like them tho.

these must be like 10k lol does anyone kno if theres anything similar to these on the 35?

the others i like had difficult finding the right size. once again madonnas i think only come in 20inch??

and the vsr's were too skinny but i like how they have a black lip with it.

WTF that is crazy! Looks Awesome.

Whats that cylinder thing just after the front wheel arch?

good question, not a fkn clue lol

more than likely air lifts, though normally people mount them inside the footwells.

^^ Fark thats hot

lol John, Clement's R34 is one of the nicest GTT's ever

anyway, Julz, i need to talk to you tomorrow but we needs to go for a drive to where i bought my rims, i think the black with red lip is a winner, can get it with rubber within your budget too... and you've seen my 19'' they work awesome

you know you want to :)

give me a buzz whenever bro, and lets go see this winner!

clement did u replace ur bonnet with a mirror? lol respect if u keep ur ride that clean all the time, black really is a bitch but just sexy when clean

Not sure now, but before the $ crash new ssr professors were under 3k brand new (18*9 and 18*10), the three piece volks were about 3300 delivered and more again for the te37's etc.

If its a gtt I dont think you can run the offset needed to make 3piece wheels look good... have a look at xd9's etc

Haha.. Yeah black is a bitch to take care. Thanks to the wonder of modern technology. eg: a very good camera

Yes you are right.

I spoke to GTTR34 lastnight and thats what he said, Air Lifts, so when the car goes into the pits to do a tyre change, the car can just quickly jack itself up.

Save the pit crew from lining up a jack / lift under the car and straight to the tyre change.

    • If as it's stalling, the fuel pressure rises, it's saying there's less vacuum in the intake manifold. This is pretty typical of an engine that is slowing down.   While typically is agree it sounds fuel related, it really sounds fuel/air mixture related. Since the whole system has been refurbished, including injectors, pump, etc, it's likely we've altered how well the system is delivering fuel. If someone before you has messed with the IACV because it needed fiddling with as the fuel system was dieing out, we need to readjust it back. Getting things back to factory spec everywhere, is what's going to help the entire system. So if it idles at 400rpm with no IACV, that needs raising. Getting factory air flow back to normal will help us get everything back in spec, and likely help chase down any other issues. Back on IACV, if the base idle (no IACV plugged in) is too far out, it's a lot harder for the ECU to control idle. The IACV duty cycle causes non linear variations in reality. When I've tuned the idle valves in the past, you need to keep it in a relatively narrow window on aftermarket ecus to stop them doing wild dances. It also means if your base idle is too low, the valve needs to open too much, and then the smallest % change ends up being a huge variation.
    • I guess one thing that might be wrong is the manifold pressure.  It is a constant -5.9 and never moves even under 100% throttle and load.  I would expect it to atleast go to 0 correct?  It's doing this with the OEM MAP as well as the ECU vacuum sensor. When trying to tune the base map under load the crosshairs only climb vertically with RPM, but always in the -5.9 column.
    • AHHHH gotchaa, I'll do that once I am home again. I tried doing the harness with the multimeter but it seems the car needed a jump, there was no power when it was in the "ON" position. Not sure if I should use car battery jump starter or if its because the stuff that has been disconnect the car just does send power.
    • As far as I can tell I have everything properly set in the Haltech software for engine size, injector data, all sensors seem to be reporting proper numbers.  If I change any injector details it doesnt run right.    Changing the base map is having the biggest change in response, im not sure how people are saying it doesnt really matter.  I'm guessing under normal conditions the ECU is able to self adjust and keep everything smooth.   Right now my best performance is happening by lowering the base map just enough to where the ECU us doing short term cut of about 45% to reach the target Lambda of 14.7.  That way when I start putting load on it still has high enough fuel map to not be so lean.  After 2500 rpm I raised the base map to what would be really rich at no load, but still helps with the lean spots on load.  I figure I don't have much reason to be above 2500rpm with no load.  When watching other videos it seems their target is reached much faster than mine.  Mine takes forever to adjust and reach the target. My next few days will be spent making sure timing is good, it was running fine before doing the ECU and DBW swap, but want to verify.  I'll also probably swap in the new injectors I bought as well as a walbro 255 pump.  
    • It would be different if the sealant hadn't started to peel up with gaps in the glue about ~6cm and bigger in some areas. I would much prefer not having to do the work take them off the car . However, the filler the owner put in the roof rack mount cavities has shrunk and begun to crack on the rail delete panels. I cant trust that to hold off moisture ingress especially where I live. Not only that but I have faded paint on as well as on either side of these panels, so they would need to come off to give the roofline a proper respray. My goal is to get in there and put a healthy amount of epoxy instead of panel filler/bog and potentially skin with carbon fiber. I have 2 spare rolls from an old motorcycle fairing project from a few years back and I think it'd be a nice touch on a black stag.  I've seen some threads where people replace their roof rack delete with a welded in sheet metal part. But has anyone re-worked the roof rails themselves? It seems like there is a lot of volume there to add in some threads and maybe a keyway for a quick(er) release roof rack system. Not afraid to mill something out if I have to. It would be cool to have a cross bar only setup. That way I can keep the sleek roofline that would accept a couple bolts to gain back that extra utility  3D print some snazzy covers to hide the threaded section to be thorough and keep things covered when not using the rack.
