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.

    • So could it be assumed it has been installed intentionally with potentially a power FC boost controller kit? 
    • Had my rig on Matt's dyno at PITS the other day. After a few years between tunes I added a few sensors and swapped intercoolers. Result. 553hp at 26psi. Not bad for an FJ20 that was built in 2007. The problem.. It filled the overflow bottle on hard runs which leads me to believe the head gasket isn't sealing. I have a coolant pressure sensor which was reading cap pressure at 22psi and occasionally overrunning to 23/24 psi on deceleration after a pull. It was not spiking. It has arp2000 head studs and a cometic gasket. As its been 18 years in service, I pulled the engine out and head off. Everything looks good but we obviously have an issue. Where I'm at.. Years ago I had the same issue, I checked the stud tension and they were all over the place. Some at 60 to 70 and some up near 90. I nipped them all to 100ft lbs and this stopped the water push until now. I believe this compromised the gasket back then. What do I do? 2 options are..  1) I bought arp 625+s, which I could put in with a new gasket. Thinking Kameari this time, reassemble and try again. 2) strip the block, get fire rings machined in with copper gasket and try that. I do not want to push it more than 28 to 30psi. I think the turbo will be out by then anyway. (G30-770). My other concern is the long term ability of a copper head gasket. Are they streetable for years? I feel like a new gasket with the new studs will probably suffice, but I don't know. Any thoughts welcome and advice on copper gaskets and fire rings. Thanks!
    • I'm a fan of the JZX110, and the Aristo. Big cruiser cars, and with the factory cars, super comfortable and feel like you're driving an armchair! And the JZ motors are a pretty nice engine too, especially with some basic mods.   The import process, and the need to be able to trust people, and the fact there's so many scammers around is what ever puts me off wanting to go through that ordeal!
    • I don't care for these at all, but at least the underside looks straight and not rusty. A good basis for a long life. Many cars from Japan have been lifted with forklifts and f**ked almost irrepairably.
    • Yes, but it's not dumb or dodgy. You can build a perfectly good boost controller from a pressure reg, a relief valve (looks same same as a reg if all from Norgren or SMC, for example) and a check valve. I ran one for years. Only superceded with  EBC because I could get one for cheaps and wanted finer control.   THis mod is certainly not a sketchy boost mod, provided the boost is kept below the "spin to death" threshold of the turbos.
