i looked at rotas.. then looked at some rota broken pics.. and like mmm..

yeh funky there +12 the bottom is +21 and looks mint enough, also low so should be ok, he didn't state any spacers.

i was thinking of buying one of the rear diffusers from psiparts, but unsure of how low they sit.. i like them but if it looks retarded with stock body then hrmm..

yeah look not a big fan of the Rota's either, but those boys have to rep the wheels they sell in their shop otherwise their customers will go "why aren't you using them if they're so good?"

but as far as stance and fitment goes, that 32's done right... even for a GTSt.

dear alex,

fuck off.

kind regards,

please don't weigh in on this when your choice of cars include a poopra, a 300zx and an MR2. :P

:happy:

i like my whale anyways.. plus 32s are nice but such a small % are done right

dont all be jumping on the rota band wagon now you know they suck

Tuff fitment Alex!

Shan, what car is this?

wot?

he has Face 2 +12's all around.

you have Face 1 +21's all around.

your wheels are sunken in by 9mm compared to his, AND you have lower brake clearance cos the spokes on your rim run straight and not curved (hence the different Face's). He isn't running spacers. You may have to, cos it may hit the shocks. You may not have to, you'll only find out when you get the wheels... but regardless your wheels will sit roughly 1cm further into the guard compared to his unless you run spacers.

comprende?

so could organize a half cage for me? bolt in street legal?

don't make bolt ins. race cages or GTFO. we get secondhand safety 21's from time to time... call roshan (0425855540) and find out. tell him shan asked you to call him, and also remind him that he's a giant knob jockey.

yeh i know i was just talking about the car in the bottom 2 pictures :)

I love when the R32 V R33 debate sparks up. Most of the 32 fans will find some of the best looking 32's around, post photos of them, and then post photos of white/burgundy s1's with stock wheels and no kit as a comparison, or a veilside kitted 33...

Having said that, before they start crying, I've been contemplating a 32 GTR...

lol my 32's not a looker by any means, so I don't post it up. But its like the perfect wife... knows how to take a solid beating like a champ and keeps on working without attracting attention to itself.

what? :)

although with these wheels I'm bidding on, GTR fenders, shaved bumpers, CF bits and paint, it might stand out just a touch.

    • Totally equivalent. Stock often goes from the comp cover because that's where the actuator is also installed and the factory needs 2" of hose to make the connection - and it comes as a pre-assembled unit. They totally have a boost reference from somewhere between the turbo and the throttle(s). Oh, jeez. Just do it in M12 then. We don't actually care that much. I would expect any such AN converter fitting to rely on an o-ring or some other seal onto a flat surface under the flange of the hex**, because bolt threads are no intended to provide a pressure seal. unlike..... pipe threads. **which also requires a suitably flat and smooth surface on the turbo's boss to provide the seal.
    • I also used NP   That’s were it’s seems to be the best place to fit it? All schematic shows also that it’s should be referenced from the turbo housing. But idk, I do see high hp cars without any connection or anything to their turbos, so I really don’t know how they connect their things
    • I do have loctite 243 and 246 and a few more models. I could drill it now in place and make new threads for m12 and order an4 - m12 coupling and fit that to the turbo. Run a braided hose to the EBC which I could get a an4 to 1/8npt 
    • So M12 and sealant should be fine?    NPT ” because that’s what I had and what I could get atm. 
    • Wouldn’t touch par if they gave it to me. You need to ask how much power you’re looking to make and then add about 50% to it because that’s what you’ll end up making  The factory box says no more at about 350kw or so, the upgraded synchro boxes won’t handle much over 500kw for long and at that point you’re looking at an auto or dog engagement manual,  once you’ve gone dog engagement you may as well go sequential, they cost a little bit more but it’s worth it  also while you’re at it you should upgrade the transfer case with 10 friction plates
