I think it's really dependent on colour; Black would work fine, White; a bit like a fridge. Silver looked ok, but I've seen a gold one, and I'd rather poke out my eyes than have to look at it again; bloody atrocious! Also as others have said, you'd have to butcher the bodywork underneath the plasitc so you can get the wheels out far enough to fill the guards properly.

agree.

i wanted to do mine, but theres really no going back if it fails..

i was thinking more of doing a matte paint finish on the car instead.. hmmm

Lol....nothing wrong with my offsets NA boy!!!!.... Fill the guards quite well actually.... My offset would however look shit if I didn't have the rub guards.....lol!

And what's all this ar-x jealousy from the guys that own poverty packs all of a sudden!:P

I like to think of mine as a "stripped out, performance lightened version" thank you :nyaanyaa:.

Wouldn't mind a sunroof some days though...

hmmmmm.....pinch.gif......maybe....damb it!!!!......you need to earn the performance part though!cheers.gif

come at me NA brah! lol

NA not too much longer!

Also what offset is aggressive? I am looking at some wheels (down the track) 20x8, they come in +30 or +45.

Fail, and Fail. Daleo is right - an 8 inch would be a +20/25 Use an offset calculator, and look at some setups and calculate to see what would fit best.

Please please please don't go down the Chromie 20" path....:spank:

go more aggressive with the wheel

19x10 and 19x10.5 with +20 offset

like to see that.

This is

Work Gnosis GS1

Front:

20x8.5+18 (225/35/20)

Rear:

20x9.5+20 (245/35/20)

Fit another inch in the back....? You'd be Mexican.

That car is a fail to me! It looks awesome, but....

I want a car I can actually drive, this is much more important to me than my car looking 'tuff' in a photo. I definitely don't want any scraping at all.

Wouldn't get up my driveway in that thing :O

    • Oh dear. The panel beating needs to be done before the filler work. Do you have a photo of the dent before you started? Hard enough to not flex and only hit the high spots?  What do you mean it was just temporary? 
    • Can u check this way it works for power supply?
    • These coils draw 10amps that what i read online
    • I appreciate the detailed explanation, think I understand now. I spent the better part of last night reading what I could about shuffle and potential solutions. I had replaced the OEM twin turbo pipe with an alternate Y pipe that is separated further away from the turbo. The current one is from HKS and I had a previous pipe that was separated even further away, both have shuffle. I had heard that a divider can be welded in to the OEM pipe to remove turbulence, and figure that aftermarket pipes that are more separated would achieve the same thing. From what I read, most people with -10 turbos get shuffle due to their size, though it's a bit less common with -5s on a standard RB26. I think Nismoid mentioned somewhere it's because OEM recirculation piping is common in Australia with -5 cars. It seems that the recommendation tends to vary between a few options, which I've ordered in what I think is most feasible for me:  1. Retune the MAP or boost controller to try to eliminate shuffle 2. Install OEM recirculation piping 3. Something called a 'balance pipe' welded onto the exhaust manifolds. I don't know if kits for this are available, seems like pure fabrication work 4. simply go single turbo My current layout is as follows: Garrett 2860 -5s HKS Racing Suction intake MAF delete pipes HKS racing chamber intake piping hard intercooler piping,  ARC intercooler HKS SSQV BOV and pipe Haltech 2500 elite ECU and boost solenoid/controller HPI dump pipes OEM exhaust manifolds HKS VCAM step 1 and supporting head modifications Built 2.6 bottom end All OEM recirculation piping was removed, relevant areas sealed off I'll keep an eye out for any alternative solutions but can get started with this.  Only other question is, does shuffle harm the turbo (or anything else)? It seems like some people say your turbo shafts will explode because of the opposing forces after a while and others say they just live with it and adjust their pedal foot accordingly. 
    • That worked out PERFECTLY! Thank you big time to JJ. He was able to swap me his stock diff. He drove all the way to me as well. Killer! Removal & install was pretty straightforward. The diff itself is HEAVY. So that’s a 2 man job.  Man does the car drive nice now! Couldn’t have worked out any better 👌
