Slightly off topic, read a little sticker above the factory wheel sticker this afternoon only to find out that it was running 235/50/18's. argh that they put back on the stock 17's. ok, now I have vented.

typo or legit? if legit that is a retarded tyre size/profile combo

Yep, I'm pretty sure that was it says.

I was just bummed out that they took the 18's off and put the stock 17's on :)

May have been done in australia before or during compliancing.

Your would not have had the 18's, they were only fitted to the ARX and AXIS.

The RS/RX only ever had 17's fitted.

It was not the factory sticker, it was an dodgy little japanese tyre shop job above the factory sticker. I would say they had 18's fitted after, or maybe the 18's were a factory option and they upgraded to the ar-x wheels.

The factory RS was 17 you are correct, but I'm poining out that at some point it had 18's in 235 fitted... hmmmmm nice.

Now I've had a real good look at the sticker it would appear it was done aftermarket at some point in the cars japanese life before it immigrated :down:

If anyone wants to buy my V35 wheels, shoot me an email! :D

Any gutter rash?

I would be looking at a semi gloss respray in black so not too concerned about condition of paint, just overall condition of rim.

    • Well, this is probably where a wiring diagram and a multimeter come into play.
    • I can say to anyone thats doing this; having done a number of R clusters; just be careful if its an unknown cluster.  It takes a bit of force to pull up; but if it feels excessive then its probably stuck. I've had this and pulled the entire hair spring out; and I can tell you; its not easy getting the correct spring replacement with the correct inner diameter and winding. In my case someone had used some sort of adhesive to stick it to the spindle and it pulled the whole spindle out; which the force seperated the hairspring from the spindal and caused it to deform.  You may have to clean it (IPA); or in my case if i'd known i should have used some sort of solvent on it.  Also check out Cruizin Central on eBay. He does all sorts of dials; and you can email him with any custom designs you want. So if you want like certain logos etc...he'll send you a mock of what it will look like then you accept the order and he'll take care of the rest. Fantastic dials and he can do basically any design you want. 
    • Have you confirmed its the actual axles? Also the wheel bearings that mount on the hubs to hold the axles wear out. I replaced mine as they got play in them. It sorted my play issue. 
    • Ive converted a few clusters for the R33 with 320km/h dials. On the back there are some pads which can be bridged or unbridged (using solder or wick braid) to calibrate it. There is one bridge which is for MPH <> KPH; and there are combinations of bridges to offset it. There is probably a diagram  For example; this is my conversion for a 180km/h dial to a 320km/h dial (I put custom GT-R dials on it with the GTS25t layout) If you have J2 soldered (assuming the S clusters have a similar config to the R clusters); you may need to remove that solder
    • Back on topic 😉, these are some of the notable pages from the booklets that are supplied with each weekly parts update. I never knew the BNR32 test mule car had an S13 Silvia front end... *Edit: On closer inspection the test car still had the R32 body, but only the front end had Silvia panels etc.
