I've got 18" shadow chrome rims on my line, though wouldnt mind 19's.

Rach - I was in a rush to get home, as i was just going past to drop a mate home. I had to get up at 1am to start work at 2am:( And i think it was like 930ish already. Your line looked very nice parked there.

Don't get me wrong, I have 18" and I want 19's soon. Just not wogish bling rims. They shouldn't be on Skylines nor should big wheels like 20" unless they're like a show car or something, but thats just my opinion :D.

*gets ready to run from all the chome fans*

Nath knows the score leave your chomies for the bmw's and show cars :D skylines are generally meant to be a performance car how does adding 50kgs at each corner help performance :)

but like my opinion others have differing ones... its your car you put what you want on there if you are only doing it for others then you suck anyways :D

i reckon beemers look awful with bling. its so unfortunate that german cars get hit with the bling stick when they can look great when a bit of race-style/jdm influence gets into their guards.

if i had to have bling, it'd be some nice diamond cut 2/3 piece rims. DEFINATELY no chrome.

Spotted Jayce and Erica in the Forester out in Gordon looking at purdy Christmas lights, that WRX convoy looked pretty cool :D

Thanks! The boxer rumble was in full effect that night...And,whilst you say you were filming stuff,it does seem a little creepy that you were perched upon a grassy knoll...sniper rifle,anyone?!?

Chrome? did someone say HOT4s??? skylines and chrome wheels just dont match. anyone seen a 34 with chromies? nope, because it would not only look ugly, but some (like me) would consider it a sin.....(not that im religous or anything.....)

polished alloy dish is about as far you'd go (eg: my volks :rofl: )

lkuke...i have a poster of a yellow R34 on my wall with chromies! from HPI mag aswell :)

i think all rims look good, depending on the colours of the car and the style of the car g JDM, Show car, pimp, clean etc etc

except for vaults, whatever car has them looks like shit!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Actually yes, there's a black R34 GT-t with 19" chrome wheels getting around

But I agree Luke, I'm not a fan of chrome either, but each to their own, you like chrome wheels, buy them

    • As far as I can tell I have everything properly set in the Haltech software for engine size, injector data, all sensors seem to be reporting proper numbers.  If I change any injector details it doesnt run right.    Changing the base map is having the biggest change in response, im not sure how people are saying it doesnt really matter.  I'm guessing under normal conditions the ECU is able to self adjust and keep everything smooth.   Right now my best performance is happening by lowering the base map just enough to where the ECU us doing short term cut of about 45% to reach the target Lambda of 14.7.  That way when I start putting load on it still has high enough fuel map to not be so lean.  After 2500 rpm I raised the base map to what would be really rich at no load, but still helps with the lean spots on load.  I figure I don't have much reason to be above 2500rpm with no load.  When watching other videos it seems their target is reached much faster than mine.  Mine takes forever to adjust and reach the target. My next few days will be spent making sure timing is good, it was running fine before doing the ECU and DBW swap, but want to verify.  I'll also probably swap in the new injectors I bought as well as a walbro 255 pump.  
    • It would be different if the sealant hadn't started to peel up with gaps in the glue about ~6cm and bigger in some areas. I would much prefer not having to do the work take them off the car . However, the filler the owner put in the roof rack mount cavities has shrunk and begun to crack on the rail delete panels. I cant trust that to hold off moisture ingress especially where I live. Not only that but I have faded paint on as well as on either side of these panels, so they would need to come off to give the roofline a proper respray. My goal is to get in there and put a healthy amount of epoxy instead of panel filler/bog and potentially skin with carbon fiber. I have 2 spare rolls from an old motorcycle fairing project from a few years back and I think it'd be a nice touch on a black stag.  I've seen some threads where people replace their roof rack delete with a welded in sheet metal part. But has anyone re-worked the roof rails themselves? It seems like there is a lot of volume there to add in some threads and maybe a keyway for a quick(er) release roof rack system. Not afraid to mill something out if I have to. It would be cool to have a cross bar only setup. That way I can keep the sleek roofline that would accept a couple bolts to gain back that extra utility  3D print some snazzy covers to hide the threaded section to be thorough and keep things covered when not using the rack. 
    • Probably not. A workshop grade scantool is my go to for proper Consult interrogation. Any workshop grade tool should do it. Just go to a workshop.
    • In my head it does make sense to be a fuel problem since that is what I touched when cleaning the system. When I was testing with the fuel pressure gauge, the pressure was constantly 2.5 bar with the FPR vacuum removed. When stalling, the pressure was going up to 3.0 bar (which is how it should be on ignition).
    • ECUtalk pages don't mention they support the ABS computer (consult port has more than one CAN), so you might just need a different scan tool. But, I would expect ABS is a different light to the brake warning/handbrake light, do you see an ABS light come on for a few seconds when you turn the key from ACC to IGN? But since you said: I'd have a look at the ABS sensors in the rear hubs to make sure they are not damaged, disconnected etc.
