Next thing is to get my fuel rail/fpr sent from japan along with some splitfires.

After that is buy everything i need from nissan and go hunting for oil and water lines for the 26 and thats it

Somehow I'm doubting there was a clutch or accelerator issue! Looks as if it's a classic case of knobhead

One EARLS Temp-a-cure 19 row oil cooler fitted, hopefully worth the $300 and the swearing!

Damo hurry up and fit yours mate

[scandyflick]

lol, shit, $300? mine cost like $200.

also, i hate people. was pretty sold on xt7's, then one of the guys on the 31 club filled my brain with POISON!

... in the form of cst hyper zero's.

would like to see those on a white 32 gtr, see if theyre suitable for my bizzl

-D

[scandyflick]

id say theyre sufficiently suitable. lol.

does they come in 18x9 with a suitable gtr offset, but more importantly, in gunmetal grey rather than that ghey bronze?

-D

[scandyflick]

unfortunately the only 2 colour options i can find are bronze and chrome (which has a fair premium thrown on top), but powder coating is hella cheap.

im looking at 17 x 9.5 +15, but they do come in 18 x 9.5 +15/23, and 18 x 9 +30.

naw not intersted in 9.5, id want it to be street legal to the word

-D

[scandyflick]

hate to tell you, but even a 9 +15 will technically be illegal. hell, even a 9 +30 is 20mm too wide per side.

offset has no bearing upon illegality, upon the basis of the rim and tyre being within the guards

that depends upon the guards, gtrs are going to be better off than std skylines

an 8"+30 offset vs a 9+30 offset is the exact same damn thing, rite? doesnt it mean that the extra 25mm is staggered upon the centre axis of the wheel? +12.5mm of the inner and outer sides?

id like to replace my stockers with a decent 18x9 rim and a >sensible< tyre combo (I say SENSIBLE to discourage scandy and other wheel fetish oriented lads from advising me to get some stupid arse f**ked up camber/stretch that simply doesnt apply to my needs - which be daily driving, targa rally and aggressive country driving)

would like the 34 gtr rims, as ive always wanted, but if one can get decent looking rims cheaper, id be all ears

thing is money dont grow on trees so I cant just point and click

oh, is that how it works? funny. adr's say track increase. offset effects track.

example, take standard 32 gtr wheels, and chuck a 15mm bolt on spacer behind each wheel, and then throw the wheels back on. youve changed the wheel track by 30mm on the axle, effectively increasing your track by 4mm above the legally permitted limit.

you want legal, keep the wheels, suspension, and tyres as standard.

you havent actually looked at my wheel and tyre combo have you? while im running a stretched rear (215/45 on a 9), my fronts are straight sidewall (225/45 on an 8)

OK My bad, I though track meant tracticle tensile contact per surface area, rather than distance of traction from centre

f**k no. i'd never look at a silvia for a gtr benchmark

im after a legal 18" rim (18x9 qualifies iirc) and chuck some decent street rubber on em

255 wide would be acceptable im sure

i've seein inline6's 275's and they look dope, but im sure i dont need that wide.

-D

EDIT - and stretched tyres are gay. i want 1:1 rolling diameter.

[scandyflick]

scratch that. my maths is off. cant really think of anything in a 9 that would be legal.

googles an awesome thing.

assume standard is a 225/50 on 16 x 8 +38 wheel, then punch in the details of the wheel and tyre combination youre looking at, and voila, tells you everything.

i punched in a new wheel and tyre combo of 18 x 9 +40 with a 255/35 and the effect on the track is a little over 2 inches.
