Fitted my front new coilovers today (rears to be fitted when my knuckles recover) and a cute little lip spoiler. Enjoy.

The super low pics are from initial install - obviously it is not like that anymore :( It now has a healthy 340mm wheel centre to guard legal gap to keep me off the speed humps and spoon drains

lol thanks mate me rikey your front height very much but we know your in your wiser years now and we both know leagal height is the way to go. are you going to keep your factory rims?? loving the much distinguished new ride you have mate. hopefully cruise with you or run into you at bp soon :D

Nah mate I am not keeping the stock rims (despite the fact I think they are among the sexiest stock rims on the planet), but am trying to decide between the rims below.

I trial fitted the GT-Cs on my car and are my dream rim, but they are expensive.

The LMGT4s on the 350Z and V35 are my current faves (the pics on the 350Z are 18" x 9.5 +20 which is my preferred offset).

The AME Circlars are long time fave rims (I used to have some without so much dish on my R34).

The AME's look dope. I'd go with them :(

trying to keep the cars spotted thread on topic so ;

it's not actually Dan.

The National average full time adult wage for 2009 based on a 38 hour week was just under $1300 pw in the private sector and just over that in the public sector.......that's about $34 per hour.

You Accountants would easily be doing that, lol

Not in IT its not. I'd love to know where u got those figures from, and whether those figures are skewed by including super. Median salary in IT is $50k pa fte, you're lucky to get anything over $65k pa fte unless you're a very high level programmer working in the defence sector. I'd love to get $50 per hour, but this excludes having an ABN and having to pay all the liabilities that come with self employment, income protection insurance, liability/indemnity insurance, life insurance/incapacitation insurance, superannuation, taxation, lodging bas statements etc etc. I was earning $55 per hr as a contractor under an ABN but when it came down to it, after the expenses and insurance it came down to around half that. Its ok if you've got a great accountant that can write off the majority of your personal expenses as a business expense, but even when I had a great accountant I still found myself paying extra for the hidden costs.

Or maybe I'm just in the wrong game. If I could get $50 ph at a full time rate (without being a self proprieter) I'd count myself as very lucky indeed. Worth considering changing professions too, provided it doesnt require a uni course.

    • UPDATE: Yes the GSP Axles are compatible. I installed it on my R34 today and they are working a treat! Turns out that the S13, S14, S15, and 200 SX all used the same axles as the HR34, and ER34 NA models. Which is 2 bolt x 3 pairs.  
    • Also build this EH ute with 370z motor and gearbox with a couple of turbos just for fun.  
    • Got the passenger door on plus the master cylinder and booster. Loaded up to take it home. At home, the colour changes a lot in the light.
    • Nothing cheap, but I have seen the AC Hydraulic DK13HLQ which is pretty close to what you're asking for. The problem is the hydraulic cylinder mandates that the back of the jack be a certain height and Skylines have fairly deep inset floor jack points. A more certain and cheap option is to get some nominal 2x10 inch lumber boards and have one board be 1.5 feet, the other board 3 feet. Glue it all together with lots of clamps to maintain pressure. Make two of these. The ramp suggested above is a good idea, it takes quite a bit of clutch slip to get over each of the boards. I only need the first ~1.5 inches for my low profile jack on a standard ride height car but a lowered car you want to go up to the full ~3-3.5 inches. Paint it or store indoors if you want it to last.
    • Ok. And Nistune? I read (here too) mainly on Stagea threads that it can by "turn off" with Nistune. But they say they still had the sensor plug in. Next week iam going to the Nistune(and other ECUs) tuner so i can finally make it work. I drove the car home and apart from the cut it drove great. No misfire no smoke no hesitation or rough start...so hoping it is this sensor that is missing
