that grey s14 actually sits very well however only the 1 crap photo was posted if u check it out on hellaflush.com it looks quite good but s14s have a crappy rear bar and make it looks like dogs balls. Luke ur fitment is good but geeze sir you could hide a boeing 747 under your car..

not the best pics but all wheels are inline rear runs a fair bit of camber to tuck the top in but 18x10 +20 fits nicely i still have enough traction tyre stretching is not as bad as suggested above within reason. i'd go lower but at 70mm off the ground not much room to move already kinda hard to drive around :banana:

My fitment:

my350z_20070929_nightshots_09.jpg

It's as flush as I can get with the stock camber/unrolled guards. However, I am still running a decent tyre size (255 front, 285 rear) and even on the track at full lateral load I don't touch.

I'd like the car to sit lower, but in Sydney that's not an option if I want to keep my lower bodywork intact.

i like 350z got any more picks?

Look at the pics after 2007-08-01 - my 17" TE37s were a bit of an embarrassment.

For other 350Zs I've taken pics of, check here.

carpark pics are tough with the graffiti etc was that actually in melb?

Yeah, but I've heard they've demolished that carpark now.

Melbourne has the best graf, at least in locations that are easily car accessible.

your car is tough as i say lower it will set it off soo much bit of under scraping is ok :banana:

I have to get mega angle at 1km/hr up my driveway right now to get it into the garage. I have a rule that I should always be able to get my car into my home without damaging the car.

If I move to a location in Sydney that has reasonable driveways and no speed humps, or down to Melbourne, I'll probably drop it half an inch. But, right now, my car is as low as it can go where scraping the front lip/undercarriage is only occasional.

isnt that mexican. just the angle of the shot. Was just toying around with a 20mm spacer. 18x10 -2

heres one with 18x10 +18. 235/40/18

that looks phat!!!!!!!!!!!

love the black and white combination

but it must be hard keeping that baby clean :down:

    • OK, Step 3, if you need to remove the valve body, either to replace it, the TCM, or to do a more complete drain.  First, you need to disconnect the TCM input wires, they are about half way up the transmission on the drivers side. One plug and the wires are out of the way, but there is also a spring clip that stops the socket from sliding back into the transmission. On my car the spring clip was easy to get, but the socket was really stuck in the o-ring of the transmission housing and took some.....persuasion. You can see both the plug to remove (first) and the spring clip (second) in this pic Incidentally, right next to the plug, you can see where the casting has allowance for a dispstick/filler which Nissan decided not to provide. there is a cap held on with a 6mm head bolt that you can remove to overfill it (AMS recommend a 1.5l overfill). Final step before the big mess, remove the speed sensor that is clipped to the valve body at the rear of the box.  Then removal of the Valve Body. For this the USDM Q50 workshop manual has a critical diagram: There are a billion bolts visible. Almost all of them do not need to be removed, just the 14 shown on the diagram. Even so, I both removed one extra, and didn't check which length bolt came from which location (more on that later....). Again it is worth undoing the 4 corners first, but leaving them a couple of turns in to hold the unit up....gravity is not your friend here and trans oil will be going everywhere. Once the corners are loose but still in remove all the other 10 bolts, then hold the valve body up with 1 hand while removing the final 4. Then, everything just comes free easily, or like in my case you start swearing because that plug is stuck in the casing. Done, the valve body and TCM are out
    • OK, so if you are either going for the bigger fluid change or are changing the valve body which includes the Transmission Control Module (TCM), first you should have both a new gasket 31397-1XJ0A and a torque wrench that can work down to 8Nm (very low, probably a 1/4 drive one). You can probably get by without either, but I really didn't want to pull it all apart together due to a leak. First, you now need that big oil pan. The transmission pan is 450 long x 350 wide, and it will probably leak on all sides, so get ready for a mess. There are 24x 6mm headed bolts holding the pan on. I undid the 2 rear corners, then screwed those bolts back in a couple of turns to let the pan go low at that end, then removed all the middle bolts on each side. Then, undo the front corner bolts slowly while holding the pan up, and 80% of the fluid will head out the rear. From there, remove the remaining bolts and the pan is off. You can see it is still dripping oil absolutely everywhere...it dripped all night.... I got another couple of litres when I removed the pan, and then another few when I removed the valve body - all up another 4l on top of the 3 already dropped in step 1.
    • Yeh I think i'll message an old contact i had for ages that manages his own tyre shop now.. n tell him what i want n work with him before ordering..  Got this 17x9 +30 Driftteks on 245/45/17 PSR Drag Radials on the rear.. They fit well - for your reference in future - Rear guards  have been lipped in & minimal to non flaring of the rear Gaurds.    
    • If only it were that easy! I also needed to remove seats, shocks, brake calipers, send my car through a fence, and use measuring and ended up guessing because I didn't remove seats, shocks and brake calipers. It can be hard sometimes Can be a little more complex than 'just measure' if you want to truly measure the entire wheel through all of it's suspension travel. But if you aren't going for every last mm then yeah, you can check the space you currently have and guesstimate.
    • If you own a car, and it has wheels on it, and you know the offset of those wheels, and you have a measuring device, you have everything you need to work out if other wheels will fit.
