Yeah,, serves his silly ass right.. those "Testacle" rossi suck when the power comes on it get extremely light in front, not a good

wasnt a tessa but fairly embarrasing i must say :(

Woo got a heater hose set for the 26 today :)

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 :(

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.

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

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

-D

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.

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.

so hrm, does that mean thy cant findeth a legiteth combinationeth ?

-D

EDIT - a) i admit i know fug all about this shit, so please bear with me b) dont you just love it when you cough blood

    • Power is fed to the ECU when the ignition switch is switched to IGN, at terminal 58. That same wire also connects to the ECCS relay to provide both the coil power and the contact side. When the ECU sees power at 58 it switches 16 to earth, which pulls the ECCS relay on, which feeds main power into the ECU and also to a bunch of other things. None of this is directly involved in the fuel pump - it just has to happen first. The ECU will pull terminal 18 to earth when it wants the fuel pump to run. This allows the fuel pump relay to pull in, which switches power on into the rest of the fuel pump control equipment. The fuel pump control regulator is controlled from terminal 104 on the ECU and is switched high or low depending on whether the ECU thinks the pump needs to run high or low. (I don't know which way around that is, and it really doesn't matter right now). The fuel pump control reg is really just a resistor that controls how the power through the pump goes to earth. Either straight to earth, or via the resistor. This part doesn't matter much to us today. The power to the fuel pump relay comes from one of the switched wires from the IGN switch and fusebox that is not shown off to the left of this page. That power runs the fuel pump relay coil and a number of other engine peripherals. Those peripherals don't really matter. All that matters is that there should be power available at the relay when the key is in the right position. At least - I think it's switched. If it's not switched, then power will be there all the time. Either way, if you don't have power there when you need it (ie, key on) then it won't work. The input-output switching side of the relay gains its power from a line similar (but not the same as) the one that feeds the ECU. SO I presume that is switched. Again, if there is not power there when you need it, then you have to look upstream. And... the upshot of all that? There is no "ground" at the fuel pump relay. Where you say: and say that pin 1 Black/Pink is ground, that is not true. The ECU trigger is AF73, is black/pink, and is the "ground". When the ECU says it is. The Blue/White wire is the "constant" 12V to power the relay's coil. And when I say "constant", I mean it may well only be on when the key is on. As I said above. So, when the ECU says not to be running the pump (which is any time after about 3s of switching on, with no crank signal or engine speed yet), then you should see 12V at both 1 and 2. Because the 12V will be all the way up to the ECU terminal 18, waiting to be switched to ground. When the ECU switches the fuel pump on, then AF73 should go to ~0V, having been switched to ground and the voltage drop now occurring over the relay coil. 3 & 5 are easy. 5 is the other "constant" 12V, that may or may not be constant but will very much want to be there when the key is on. Same as above. 3 goes to the pump. There should never be 12V visible at 3 unless the relay is pulled in. As to where the immobiliser might have been spliced into all this.... It will either have to be on wire AF70 or AF71, whichever is most accessible near the alarm. Given that all those wires run from the engine bay fusebox or the ECU, via the driver's area to the rear of the car, it could really be either. AF70 will be the same colour from the appropriate fuse all the way to the pump. If it has been cut and is dangling, you should be able to see that  in that area somewhere. Same with AF71.   You really should be able to force the pump to run. Just jump 12V onto AF72 and it should go. That will prove that the pump itself is willing to go along with you when you sort out the upstream. You really should be able to force the fuel pump relay on. Just short AF73 to earth when the key is on. If the pump runs, then the relay is fine, and all the power up to both inputs on the relay is fine. If it doesn't run (and given that you checked the relay itself actually works) then one or both of AF70 and AF71 are not bringing power to the game.
    • @PranK can you elaborate further on the Colorlock Dye? The website has a lot of options. I'm sure you've done all the research. I have old genuine leather seats that I have bought various refurbing creams and such, but never a dye. Any info on how long it lasts? Does it wash out? Is it a hassle? What product do I actually need? Am I just buying this kit and following the steps the page advises or something else? https://www.colourlockaustralia.com.au/colourlock-leather-repair-kit-dye.html
    • These going to fit over the big brakes? I'd be reeeeeeeeaaaall hesitant to believe so.
    • The leather work properly stunned me. Again, I am thankful that the leather was in such good condition. I'm not sure what the indent is at the top of the passenger seat. Like somebody was sitting in it with a golf ball between their shoulders. The wheels are more grey than silver now and missing a lot of gloss.  Here's one with nice silver wheels.
    • It's amazing how well the works on the leather seats. Looks mint. Looking forward to see how you go with the wheels. They do suit the car! Gutter rash is easy to fix, but I'm curious about getting the colour done.
