Well It has been a while since I have done anything to the car... however due to some unforeseen circumstances my rims have buckled from the pure awesomeness of being ROTA's lol. hahaha

So Now I have been hunting for the last 3 days on what rims I should get and I have settled on

18x10.5x+15 f1 silver Enkei Rpf1 I can get them to my door for 1530... however my only concern is the stretch of a 265 onto the 10.5" rim.

I can get a 18x9.5+15 for about 100 dollars less which I know the tyre will fit and look a little more chunky on but im still not 100% on that factor.

I had 265s stretched on 10" wide but next 10.5" rims so any ideas or advice boys?

just an example of 10.5" with 265s. I know I will have to get my guards rolled as Colin kindly discussed with me last night.

who are you getting the rims through?

might be interested in a set

Hey mate, I have scratch the plan so far lol.

it was $1578.00 after conversion and even after that It was about $250.00 in govt fees blood bastards so pushed it all up to $1850.00

So far my current price for them through a importer is $1650.00 to my door that's it so seems to be the best out of the lot.

It is through street to track just google them and youll get the address.

18x10.5x+15 f1 silver Enkei Rpf1

Got them for 1650 to my door from the US and it only took 1 week delivery which I am very impressed with :D

I am also currently looking at spending some coinage hahaha I am currently going through a job change and my old job (BCC) are paying me out 100 hours of holiday pay so yay for me :D hahahaha

Have been looking at coilovers I have requested a price on a set of Tein Super Streets but unsure what they are like. I have found a second hand set of HR Teins but again unsure what they would be like driving wise as I dont want to much more of piggy to drive every day of the week lol.

I have also been thinking of what I should do to push my GTR to 500hp, I am pretty sure I am not that far off... custom front pipe Twin 3" to single 4" collector fake cat in place for it to be plausible to coppers and allow more flow... Z32 AFMs or debating selling the power fc and just going the wolf depending on what price I can get it for, then I should be nicely able to push it to 500hp :D I am still requiring a new clutch aswell the old 1 is still holding up from low rpm to the high rpm apart from 4th gear.

Don't get super streets, I have them on my mate's supra and my r32 gtr and on both cars they are way to soft and the tires will hit the guards unless it's jack up heaps. I have Tein Mono Flex on my R33 GTR and my other mate has them on his R34 GTR and they are absolutely perfect 8kg/mm on front and 7kg/mm rear, they are perfect balance between street and track I highly recommended them.

Here are my Mono flex they have dual height adjustment these are off my Street/Track R33 GTR Fr:8kg/mm R:7kg/mm

And these are the super street which have minimal height adjustment these are off my Drag R32 GTR Fr:5kg/mm R:4kg/mm

Ahhh really? very nice. Yeah I have been weighting up all the costs etc... a few people have been suggesting the SS but few others suggesting other brands. aswell.

Have you heard or used the Tein HRs?

Hey mate. Give my tuner a call. He is a Tein dealer and nows how to set them up very well. Number is 54993932 and is located in Morayfield. I also operate an auto elec shop next door to him if you ever need anything.

Will do!

Cheers mate.

So after getting sick of my hicas playing up I decided lock the bitch out! .

Following the how to guide still took me forever to get it right hahahahaha it was a bitch getting the old 1 out.

I also got a better pic showing the offset of the new rims.

If it were practical I would lower my GTR this low hahah

    • Hello, sorry for being late to join the discussion, but my clock just died on me.   Ive tried to look at Michaels digital clock repair.docx and it doesnt work maybe the file has expired.   Please let me know if you can re upload it or take some youtube videos to show us how to get the clock installed? thanks
    • I thought that might be the case, thats what I'll start saving for. Thanks for the info 
    • Ps i found the below forum and it seems to be the same scenario Im dealing with. Going to check my ECU coolant temp wire tomorrow    From NICOclub forum: s1 RB25det flooding at start up Thu Apr 11, 2013 7:23 am I am completely lost on this. Car ran perfectly fine when I parked it at the end of the year. I took the engine out and painted the engine bay, and put a fuel cell with an inline walbro 255 instead of the in tank unit I had last year. After reinstalling everything, the engine floods when the fuel pump primes. if i pull the fuel pump fuse it'll start, and as soon as I put the fuse back in it starts running ridiculously rich. I checked the tps voltage, and its fine. Cleaned the maf as it had some dust from sitting on a shelf all winter, fuel pressure is correct while running, but wont fire until there is less than 5psi in the lines. The fuel lines are run correctly. I have found a few threads with the same problem but no actual explanation of what fixed it, the threads just ended. Any help would be appreciated.

I found the problem though. There was a break in one of the ecu coolant temp sensor wires. Once it was repaired it fired right up with no problems. I would have never thought a non working coolant temp sensor would have caused such an issue.
    • Hi sorry late reply I didnt get a chance to take any pics (my mechanics on the other side of the city) but the plugs were fouled from being too rich. I noticed the MAF wasn't genuine, so I replaced it with a genuine green label unit. I also swapped in a different ignitor, but the issue remains. I've narrowed it down a bit now: - If I unplug and reconnect the fuel lines and install fresh spark plugs, the car starts right up and runs perfectly. Took it around the block with no issues - As soon as I shut it off and try to restart, it won't start again - Fuel pressure while cranking is steady around 40 psi, injectors have good spray, return line is clear, and the FPR vacuum is working. It just seems like it's getting flooded after the first start I unplugged coolant sensors to see if its related to ECU flooding but that didnt make a difference. Im thinking its related to this because this issue only started happening after fixing coolant leaks and replacing the bottom part of the stock manifolds coolant pipe. My mechanic took off the inlet to get to get to do these repairs. My mechanics actually just an old mate who's retired now so ill be taking it to a different mechanic who i know has exp with RBs to see if they find anything. If you have any ideas please send em lll give it a try. Ive tried other things like swapping the injectors, fuel rail, different fuel pressure regs, different ignitor, spark plugs, comp test and MAF but the same issue persists.
    • My return flow is custom and puts the return behind the reo, instead of at the bottom. All my core is in the air flow, rather than losing some of it up behind the reo. I realise that the core really acts more as a spiky heatsink than as a constant rate heat exchanger, and that therefore size is important.... but mine fits everything I needed and wanted without having to cut anything, and that's worth something too. And there won't be a hot patch of core up behind the reo after every hit, releasing heat back into the intake air.
