currently have some

255 40 R17 94Y

Yokahama Advan Neova's AD07

2 with camber wear and 2 which have pretty much no tread..

id love to get the same tyres..

problem is im having an absolute bitch of a time finding somewhere with prices / where i can buy them

does anyone know where i can find..

*sorry i wheel newb :)*

traction tyres is yokohama distributor. else try one of the sau sponsors.

still waiting on custom wheel outers to be machined up and the centres powdercoated.

in the meantime i got our painter to track down either Nissan Midnight Purple II or BMW Interlagos Blue samples for paint. Then it's a matter of rolling/pumping the guards out for extra width which should cover the 11" wide wheels in the back :)

Still divided on paint. MPII would be sweet, but the base colour of the car is blue... which may or may not work too well with a blue-purple-black flippy colour.

go the MPII, it looks awesome in the sunlight and just as good if not better in artificial light. when i just went outside before it was a really nice dark looking purple and then when i walked closer to it it changed to a blue/green colour, it looked awesome :P

yeah but MP2 is a nissan colour. this is a golf... at least Interlagos Blue has some euro history behind it.

Although then the cream leather interior and MP2 should look sweet together. If I go the Interlagos Blue I'll have to change the interior to tan instead of cream. Wheels will have to be a different colour instead of blue barrels and black spokes too if I go MP2. Maybe bronze barrels and black spokes?

Also, there's no green in MP2. MP3 has some fucked up hectic bro chameleon goin on, but MP2 is just straight blue -> purple -> black transition. Black basecoat, purple midcoat, blue pearl in clear.

ok, i must be a bit colour blind then lol because in some angles and light it looks like it has a green tinge in the blue.

have you got a pic of the interlagos blue?

just a quick question if i got some new z tune side skirts and rear pods would it be hard to spray and match up this colour properly?

shan roughly how much is it costing for ur wheels to get done man?

base was $1500 for centres and inner barrels and $1000 for outer barrels. Plus new bolts, labour, powdercoating etc.

full homo cos it's 5x100 fitment that nothing else seems to use other than shitty old toyota celicas, and even then they're like +40 offset which is useless on an euro.

wow, that blue is very nice.

yeah it's a blue base with purple pearl and then a clear with some light blue pearl in it... or someshit like that.

same car, two angles.

Subies are 5x100 too.

also with +40 fitment.

as are Prius' which also run 5x100.

The Works I got are for a Subie, but then with custom outers machined up to my specs so that the offset goes from 18x7 +29 to 18x10.5 -15 :)

mp3 is the f**king shit!

jamie, that 180sx you posted, always see it around my way.

and

today after school, walking across the oval to cross mahoneys road to find a juniors ran across the road and got cleaned up by a van at 60km...

you are worse than a fkn woman

    • our good friends at nismo make a diff for it, I have one (and a spare housing to put the centre in) on the way. https://www.nismo.co.jp/products/web_catalogue/lsd/mechanical_lsd_v37.html AMS also make a helical one, but I prefer mechanical for track use in 2wd (I do run a quaife in the front, but not rear of the R32)
    • What are we supposed to be seeing in the photo of the steering angle sensor? The outer housing doesn't turn, right? All the action is on the inside. The real test here is whether or not your car has had the steering put back together by a butcher. When the steering is centred (and we're not caring about the wheel too much here, we're talking about the front wheels, parallel, facing front) then you should have an absolutely even number of turns from centre to left lock and centre to right lock. If there is any difference at all then perhaps the thing has been put back together wrongly, either the steering wheel put on one spline (or more!) off, and the alignment bodged to straighteb the wheel, or the opposite where something silly was done underneath and the wheel put back on crooked to compensate. Nut there isn't actually much evidence that you have such a problem anyway. It is something you can easily measure and test for to find out though. My money is still on the HICAS CU not driving the PS solenoid with the proper PWM signal required to lighten the load at lower speed. If it were me, I would be putting either a multimeter or oscilloscope onto the solenoid terminals and taking it for a drive, looking for the voltage to change. The PWM signal is 0v, 12V, 0V, 12v with ...obviously...modulated pulse width. You should see that as an average voltage somewhere between 0V and 12V, and it should vary with speed. An handheld oscilloscope would be the better tool for this, because they are definitely good enough but there's no telling if any cheap shit multimeter that people have lying around are good enough. You can also directly interfere with the solenoid. If you wire up a little voltage divider with variable resistor on it, and hook the PS solenoid direct to 12V through that, you can manually adjust the voltage to the solenoid and you should be able to make it go ligheter and heavier. If you cannot, then the problem is either the solenoid itself dead, or your description of the steering being "tight" (which I have just been assuming you mean "heavy") could be that you have a mechanical problem in the steering and there is heaps of resistance to movement.
    • Little update  I have shimmed the solenoid on the rack today following Keep it Reets video on YouTube. However my steering is still tight. I have this showing on Nisscan, my steering angle sensor was the closest to 0 degrees (I could get it to 0 degrees by small little tweaks, but the angle was way off centre? I can't figure this out for the life of me. I get no faults through Nisscan. 
    • The BES920 is like the Toyota Camrys of coffee machines. E61 group head is cool, however the time requirements for home use makes it less desirable. The Toyota Camry coffee machine runs twin boilers and also PID temp control, some say it produces coffees as good as an E61 group head machine.
    • And yes with a full tank it will hit limiter free revving or driving 6B6CDF6E-4094-426D-A9CB-6C553475FE36.mp4
