sofly - second batch of pics perfect just the 20mm spacer in first pic made it stick out to far but you didnt explain that hence calling it mexican..

aside from that this thread fails.. thread is "wheel fitment, post YOUR wheels" for the most part its random internet pics and cars that are wheels slapped on and need more this, less this to achieve "fitment" maybe should have just made it post your wheels thread..

heres some pics of mine... i consider this conservative as i have only lipped the guards. wheels are 17x8.5 and 17x9.5 panasport g7's and were used a test fit... be prepared for what i have planned when my rig is back on the road in 2011.

and for the haters... this was my daily.. and i never got pulled over.. aslong as the top of the tyre is inside guard its not really a problem. also the rears were almost flat... i can show you pics of my skid tyres and you'll see that just about the entire tyre is worn.

i dont see the point in having a lame (safe) offset... it looks like a commonwhore and is crap. and soo many cars are running around with these kind of offsets and stretched tyres, so i think the unsafe claims of stretched tyres can be put to bed... they just dont hold up anymore.

cheers

fronts are 16mm more rears are 5mm more (and by more i mean less;) )

R34 sedan, 18x9.5 +15 JIC wheels, 235/40's all round, fronts really need a 225, front guards lipped and slight pull, rear's i still need to lip the guards then i can give it more low, just havnt had the time. Work in progress.

if anyone wants them

$8 and there yours :rant:

what? don't sell em to anyone. you'll get tards with sunken battleship fitment sporting them.

i say you only get to have those if a panel of experts deem your wheels to be truly hellaflush.

    • Or, is it a case of what it is like owning an R series Skyline? NFI what the previous owner has done or fiddled with... Ha ha ha After reading through this thread, I went on a bit of a research about the Q50/Q60. Now I'm quite intrigued by them! Is the AWD in them more like a WRX where it's always AWD, or is it more like the ATTESSA in the GTRs? By the sound of this TCU tuning, this sounds like a case of someone has made some real software for it, and you just need the right piece of hardware, and then you license that specific vehicle/TCU. Or is this a case of the software will be really expensive so only a few tuners have it, and you still have to pay a license per vehicle?
    • By popular demand.. it was a coil. Got my hands on 1 new OEM coil, replaced with the one that made the less noise difference when I unplugged it while the car was running and started the car up. No stutter and the engine light was gone. I guess I’ll buy the other 5 they have lol
    • No, code 21 is very straightforward. It can only be the things described in that diagnostic flow. In fact it has no way of knowing that the spark plug resistance is out of spec.
    • Hi, SteveL Thank you very much for your reply, you seem to be the only person on the net who has come up with a definitive answer for which I am grateful. The "Leak" was more by way of wet bubbles when the pedal was depressed hard by a buddy while trying to gey a decent pedal when bleeding the system having fitted the rebuilt BM50 back in the car, which now makes perfect sense. A bit of a shame having just rebuilt my BM50, I did not touch the proportioning valve side of things, the BM50 was leaking from the primary piston seal and fluid was running down the the Brake booster hence the need to rebuild, I had never noticed any fluid leaking from that hole previously it only started when I refitted it to the car. The brake lines in the photo are "Kunifer" which is a Copper/Nickel alloy brake pipe, but are only the ones I use to bench bleed Master cylinders, they are perfectly legal to use on vehicles here in the UK, however the lines on the car are PVF coated steel. Thanks again for clearing this up for me, a purchase of a new BMC appears to be on the cards, I have been looking at various options in case my BM50 was not repairable and have looked at the HFM BM57 which I understand is manufactured in Australia.
