I've been thinking I might have to hunt one of those rear spoilers down, definately adds to the sporty appearance of the M35.

Then again I could go crazy and buy a whole Nismo kit, I'll wait until I'm doing a complete respray :D

Yep, I hear ya!

ahh, if only I had the spare 3-4k lying around for the complete Nismo kit...

Oh well, what can ya do!?!

After some calculations the basic kit is

Freeway Dolphin Aeroform

Stagea (White kit in pictures)

Front Bumper Spoiler 75,600 yen ($1044.26 AUD)

Side Step 63,000 yen ($870.221 AUD)

Rear Bumper Spoiler 71,400 yen ($986.627)

Front Grille 31,500 yen ($435.276 AUD)

Eye-line Garnish 15,750 yen ($217.621)

Rear Wing 57,750 yen ($797.944)

Total 315,000 yen ($4351.949)

You should think though they could sharpen the pencil on a complete fitout and give a better price.

I like the kit though, worth keeping a note of.

P.S maybe they would throw a set of this in in 19" http://www.freeway-dolphin.co.jp/wheel/kamp/kamp.htm

Yeah.

I was looking at the Kenstyle EIK kit in mid-late 2007.

Got hold of the supplier (in California) and got a price... problem was it "had" to be shipped from Japan to the US, then on to me in Melbourne.

Cost was around $6.5k... before it was painted!!

Anyway, this is what I WAS looking at (same colour as my car too!)

Nice kit, but I really want to go with something with a matching roof spoiler :P I just think it really adds to the look of the car. At this point in time my first serious consideration would be given to the Nismo kit, followed by the Dolphin Aerosport.

But as stated previously, I probably wouldn't consider it tell I was looking at a full respray, I think however I would get it resprayed the same red as it is at the moment, the colour has grown on me.

bought 20x8 advanti vienna's with +35 offset

wat tyesr should i put on

245/40? or 45?

I would say 245/45.

I have 245/40's but my speedo is calibrated for 215/55/17.

ARX come standard with 18's, although I do not know the standard sizing.

Check near the inside sil of the driver's door, it will tell you the standard size, then punch it into THIS site to make sure your speedo is not too far out.

EDIT: plus the ride on 45's is much more comfortable than on 40's.

Hi guys, I have a few questions;

1: I know r34 GTR wheels go on nm35's with the wheelarch flares, (ARX, AXIS) but has anyone tried on an RS?

2: How much wider are the flares than standard bodywork?

3: Does anyone know the offset of the ARX 18x8" rims?

I know the GTR's are 18x9" but I'm unsure of offset. Looks like a squeeze, but might work if not too low...

Cheers, Dale

    • I don't think the shuffle can damage the turbos. It only happens at low shaft speeds and loads. It's just annoying (to some people - others are tickled by the effect) and it quite possibly reduces spool performance a little bit.
    • Oh dear. The panel beating needs to be done before the filler work. Do you have a photo of the dent before you started? Hard enough to not flex and only hit the high spots?  What do you mean it was just temporary? 
    • Can u check this way it works for power supply?
    • These coils draw 10amps that what i read online
    • I appreciate the detailed explanation, think I understand now. I spent the better part of last night reading what I could about shuffle and potential solutions. I had replaced the OEM twin turbo pipe with an alternate Y pipe that is separated further away from the turbo. The current one is from HKS and I had a previous pipe that was separated even further away, both have shuffle. I had heard that a divider can be welded in to the OEM pipe to remove turbulence, and figure that aftermarket pipes that are more separated would achieve the same thing. From what I read, most people with -10 turbos get shuffle due to their size, though it's a bit less common with -5s on a standard RB26. I think Nismoid mentioned somewhere it's because OEM recirculation piping is common in Australia with -5 cars. It seems that the recommendation tends to vary between a few options, which I've ordered in what I think is most feasible for me:  1. Retune the MAP or boost controller to try to eliminate shuffle 2. Install OEM recirculation piping 3. Something called a 'balance pipe' welded onto the exhaust manifolds. I don't know if kits for this are available, seems like pure fabrication work 4. simply go single turbo My current layout is as follows: Garrett 2860 -5s HKS Racing Suction intake MAF delete pipes HKS racing chamber intake piping hard intercooler piping,  ARC intercooler HKS SSQV BOV and pipe Haltech 2500 elite ECU and boost solenoid/controller HPI dump pipes OEM exhaust manifolds HKS VCAM step 1 and supporting head modifications Built 2.6 bottom end All OEM recirculation piping was removed, relevant areas sealed off I'll keep an eye out for any alternative solutions but can get started with this.  Only other question is, does shuffle harm the turbo (or anything else)? It seems like some people say your turbo shafts will explode because of the opposing forces after a while and others say they just live with it and adjust their pedal foot accordingly.
