Hows your $600 spring work Jethro?

Brrrrrppp! Lucky your shifts arn't too good anyway Jethro as you car might finish breaking in half!

Lets just say they work better then your dick does, by the sound of things....:whistling::nyaanyaa:

hahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha f**k

Did the wire cut mod. It certainly builds up the revs a lot quicker while braking now but I can't say I noticed a huge difference. I do have some big wheels on though and no (or insignificant) power mods though...

You can't receive new messages...

Remind me what size did you go for with the wheels? They were 19x something right?

Have any problems with fitment?

Saw them tonight. Great fitment.

From memory they are 19x9.5 +20, quite a bit of low and some slight guard rolling was done too I believe - Jase can correct me if Im wrong :P

TBH its still a slug off the line. from standstill to 30ish kph the response sucks....unless you've got nismo ECU and/or revving the engine with the brakes on...

The rental Tiida my wife is driving (her car's in the shop again) seems to go harder then my Stag from standstill...

of course, I'm redlining the damn thing and I look at the speedo and its barely reaching 60 kph...LOL

Yep as above.

Ultimately it just comes down to what height you want to run your car at. Chris aka spoolin12 runs the exact same wheel size (maybe a +22 instead of a +20, can't remember), with the same tyre (245/40 R19) and runs his car a bit higher. The rear wheels are flush (the rears were never really a concern, only fronts), and the fronts hang just slightly out of the guards.

Mine is that bit lower (still pretty high, I never bottom out except for on big spoon drains when any other car would, or during a hasty exit from the RAAF base the other day >_< ) so it's running that bit more camber. Front and rear they sit absolutely perfect. :thumbsup:

We rolled all four corners on my car - all it needs is the lip folded up. Now that mine is a bit lower now I don't even think that the rears needed any folding. Fairly confident I've never rubbed a guard, and IF I did it was under a fair amount of compression as I hit a dip in the road coming down one of the hills on Tregarthen Rd. Couldn't see any rubber missing from the tyre or left on the guard, so I'm not particularly concerned.

Long story short, they will fit, and look HOT. How well they fit comes down to heights. If you're going to run it higher (similar to Dale's heights in the BC BR thread, I'd probably go for a 19x9+20 or a 19x9.5+30). Really just comes down to preferences. PM me if you want to check them out one night.

hahah yep. It's a weight thing. Doesn't help that the last car I owned was an Evo with a 5 puck clutch haha.

I like the look I yours, just curious about your camber to fit them flush with guards thats all. Mine is about 10mm higher than yours and is running -2.5deg front and -2deg rear. And already seeing inner tyre wear with the limited km's I've done.

Whaaaat? Have you had a wheel alignment yet? I'll double check the print out tonight but I'm 99% confident that I'm running about -1.5deg both front and rear.

Well there's two columns on the report they gave me - "Diagnosis" and "Adjustment". My guess is that it's the Adjustment column (as follows)..

Front

Partial Toe: Left 0,8 Right 0,6

Toe: 1,4

Set back: -0°28

Camber: Left -1°52 Right -1°58

Camber dif.: +0°06

Caster: Left +6°58 Right +6°34

Caster dif.: +0°24

King pin: Left +7°22 Right +6°40

King pin dif.: +0°42

Included angle: Left +5°30 Right +4°42

Rear

Partial Toe: Left 1,0 Right 1,0

Toe: 2,2

Camber: Left -1°56 Right 1°58

Camber dif.: +0°02

I realised two things while typing that out.

1. I need to find my scanner.

2. You might have been referring to combined left and right camber on your car?

Just double checked mine. Not quite as bad as I thought but the rear is too much.

Front camber is L -2.09deg R -1.22deg

Rear camber is L -2.06deg R -2.01deg

The rear i would like at -1.00deg most and front I want to even it up at -1.22deg both sides. I installed offset bushes up from to help an waiting on the SPC offset bolts for the rear. Then I'll take it somewhere else and get it aligned again

Where did you get yours done?

Where did you get yours done?

Adelaide Radial Tyre at Holden Hill. They do a lot of motorsport cars and seem to have a very good reputation. They kind of dicked me around with times but the work was good and the price wasn't too high. :laugh:

Dealt with them on a business level before. I think I'll give them a miss and go back to Pedders at ridgehaven. Didn't have time to get to pedders when I had the m35 done and went to tyre power on north east road.

    • Guys since i bought r33 gts25t coupe 1994 automatic a/t(manual swap 350z gearbox)  all i got is problems, always problems. Lets start with that when i turn key into ignition(ON) fuel pump doesnt always works. Sometimes i have to turn key twice Off/on/off/on until it primes. Its new, dw300 - 340lph. My gearbox broke so i did gearbox swap, install different intake manifold, injectors and i take pipes. Car was sitting in garage for more than half a year. I did assembly all not that long ago and when i turn ignition cant hear prime. All of sudden it stopped working. Theres many videos on YouTube how to make relay mod on r33 straight from battery so i did and it doesnt work! 😰 30 - battery positive  87 - positive from fuel pump to relay 85, 86 - one of two wires from original fuel pump wires(light blue, grey) and it didn’t work. so I check on ignition and took original BLUE relays wires from trunk, next to fuses. (I believe it’s IGN+ and ECU pin 18. it didn’t work…  tried connecting (IGN+ from og relay) and (ECU 104 from 1of4 FPCM wires) to my new relay 85/86 and it didn’t work.  I unplug FPCM. Didn’t work. im thinking what’s wrong   fuel pump is working, if I leave IGN+ on 85 and 86 straight to ground it works but it’s just nonstop. Since it getting constant 12v after key in ON. light blue wire gives me 6-8v.  so how this should be connected? What causing ECU not giving — on pin? Or I did sth wrong and that’s why it doesn’t work? I need negative signal on ECU that control fuel pump. What this should be?
    • You can use your VIN to look up the factory part number somewhere like amayama, and then look to order new if necessary. https://www.amayama.com/en/genuine-catalogs/nissan Depending on price you might want to rebuild instead. @GTSBoy I had an interesting insight into US market parts when the Titan rear calipers were sticking. New calipers were dirt cheap, about 20% more than a rebuild kit....they are just considered throw away maintenance items
    • Funny, but really not funny. Thank god (most) f the world has moved on since then
    • Lots of votes for driving onto a plank first; that is the quickest way I've found, 25mm is enough for my case but that will vary by car It also depends where you are going for. On the 32 I can get to the rear diff with my floor jack if I do that end first, and get it up on stands. Then I lift the front from either front tow hook as high as needed, also onto stands. Sometimes I need a small lift on the other tow hook to get it level enough If I do the front first I can't get to the rear diff because of the angle of the car Other options are getting to the front mount of the rear subframe from in front of the wheel (if only lifting one side, or just do both which is a bit of a pain compared to one lift from the diff), or also the gearbox cross member mount on the driver's side if you are  just trying to lift the driver's side. I This is the jack I use; it says 75mm clearance but of course that is only on the lower section so if you have to reach too far in like the diff you still get stuck. https://www.snapon-bluepoint.com.sg/category/Floor-Jacks/product/Floor-Jack,-2-Ton-Low-Profile
    • On the bright side, the weather will turn much nicer for working outside shortly....sounds like you might need to start on a neighbour's garden next
