hi gangs...

as i have seen a lot of silvia s15 stock rims sprayed black color, it really look good on the car, but i am wondering, has anyone done one on skylines, preferably ER34?? would it look good for the stock rims ER34 colored/sprayed black??..just trying to save some money for NOW, and thinking of coloring my stock rims black instead of buying new sets of rims..

any opinions??

thanks..

here is mine sprayed black with rays nuts looks heaps good i reckon, especially with the r34 gtt rims. take the centre cap off and they look a treat.

wowwwwwww....thats fckin awesome dude....i just didnt realise how sick it is on er34..my car is a yellow color, do u reckon it will look good on a black sprayed rims?? im getting it done man...im so excited now ive seen one for r34....

thanx heaps....

i dont think he has that type of money, if his wanting to spray stock rims... lolol

true true there bro....just on the tight budget at the moment...lolz...its only ttemporarily till i have enough dough to buy a good set of 19" deep dish rims which is my dream..but dat would still be far ahead, as i need my performance done first...

cheerz anyways...

Yeah I'm saying spray paint your wheels LIKE the TE37's in the pic I posted, NOT Buy the wheels.

Like that style = paint wheels black with red lip.

Cool!

those are only 16's and with those stripes going around teh wheels i recon itll look abit wierd, cos itll make the wheel look even smaller and he doesnt have stretched tyres.
i meen 17's

Hmmm... You think..?

I still think it be fine, but atleast paint the wheels black I say :down:

Black gives a tuff look.

shouldnt be to hard.

clean wheel and sand of clear coat. id get engine enamal paint as they are better lasting. prime it well. allow to try then do very fine light coats allow an hour to dry in between. and if you want a really good quality finish wet sand in between then a nice final coat followed by clear and a buff/polish.

that will give you a nice thick coat that wont chip away.

also make sure you tape up your tyres or you will get paint and primer on them.

also try getting black promer if painting your wheel black. so IF there is a chip at leak you primer will be black so you wont notice it

wow...ur stokies with black and red line looks good...what did u used for the red line?? is it actually a paint or something else/???

i powdercoated them :P

red lip uses the lip of the rim, didnt need to mask anything as i can wipe the black powder off the red before curing the black coat.

alot of work though, definately not the cheapest option due to the extra baking and prep work required.

    • HFM BM57 has a "bad" knee point, IIRC. It's not the same thing as the later R chassis MC.
    • The ATTESSA is functionally identical to R34; there were a bunch of JDM models that continued ATTESSA including Fuga/Q70, Skyline/Q50, Cima etc as an option. All with Auto only and I think mostly for snow regions. AFAIK there were no AWD VR30DDTT sold in Australia - it is on my to do list to check regs for racing a LHD car in Targa/ATR/AASA/CAMS events because if I can get the auto to work it would be interesting to run a 4wd car The Ecuteck TCM tuning is the same model as their ECU tuning, they already have it for R35 and Dose's favourite, BMW. You buy "points" to allow your computer to be tuned, buy either a bluetooth (phone app) or bluetooth+USB+Key (phone and PC) dongle, and pay for a tune that will be locked to your tuner ( ). You can also access the tuning software yourself but 1. it is mega expensive and 2. these computers have a billion parameters that intersect, so how could you ever spend enough time on it to get a decent result.
    • Or, is it a case of what it is like owning an R series Skyline? NFI what the previous owner has done or fiddled with... Ha ha ha After reading through this thread, I went on a bit of a research about the Q50/Q60. Now I'm quite intrigued by them! Is the AWD in them more like a WRX where it's always AWD, or is it more like the ATTESSA in the GTRs? By the sound of this TCU tuning, this sounds like a case of someone has made some real software for it, and you just need the right piece of hardware, and then you license that specific vehicle/TCU. Or is this a case of the software will be really expensive so only a few tuners have it, and you still have to pay a license per vehicle?
    • By popular demand.. it was a coil. Got my hands on 1 new OEM coil, replaced with the one that made the less noise difference when I unplugged it while the car was running and started the car up. No stutter and the engine light was gone. I guess I’ll buy the other 5 they have lol
    • No, code 21 is very straightforward. It can only be the things described in that diagnostic flow. In fact it has no way of knowing that the spark plug resistance is out of spec.
