Enkei's arnt fakes. They are not trying to be something there not an are high quality,

Cheap wheels are fine so long as they are not trying to be something they are not. replicas are what ticks me off.

Does this go for everything or just wheels? Say the likes of kit cars? Not the real thing but a replica, and in some instances better than the real thing ( so im told )

Te37's, unlike shelby cobras are readily available, so no not really, its a different situation

Cheap wheels are sometimes fine for posing around on the street, however if you race on them, be prepared to possibly die or stuff it in the wall.

Having said that the number of fakes I see on the dyno that are basically buckled square from hitting tiny ruts in the road daily driving etc is frightening. There are no standards in this game of knock-off wheels, just the temptation to make them as cheap as possible to maximise margins. Thats the price some will pay for vanity.

That's why I use Rays Martin as you know, on the track safety is paramount, I value my life an wouldn't want a major wheel failure at 200km/h

Either needs to hold 240 ish need one cheap utill I can buy somethin decent as I got a drift prac cuming up with low cash so will take what I can get

what engine have you got R34 in a 34 or a neo engine gearbox in something else

poor man pays twice, why not get a reasonable clutch right from now and sort the rest of your shit out after

i can get a good clutch at a decent price just all depends on what you call cheap to quotes you may have received from other places

hey mate neo engine and box in my r32 drift car.mainly after something cheap as i wont have cash to buy something decent before my private day was going to wait till it dies so i can atleast attend and do a skid or 2. im not going to spend anymore then $1000 on clutch. If ure able to get me some prices on and array of a couple clutches would be awesome and highly appreciated

the number of TE37's that ive seen cracked lately from driving around on our shitty roads is also quite high!

+1 I can also vouch for npc clutches, got mine from madaz and simon installed it, i went the 9.5 which is about 100 bucks cheaper than the 10 and its really not that bad at all, no probs in traffic and can handle punishment, so overall great bang for buck clutch, get a quote from madaz

    • 9" wheels are a little too wide for a RWD 32. They can fit. People have put R33 GTR wheels on 32s for years and years. But they are a very tight squeeze. This has been known for about 30 years. As I said - there is no difference between a 17 and an 18 in terms of what will fit. The rolling diameter needs to stay about the same as stock - not very much larger. If you increase that, you will start to have problems. If you increae rolling diamater at the same time as yo increase width, you will have problems earlier. as 9" wheels are pushing the boundaries already, you would need to be careful with tyre choice. I would put 8.5s on the front of mine, but would expect problems with 9s.

    • Diagnostic flow for a code 21 says check signal at the ECU pins, on a voltmeter of some kind it should read 0.1V at idle, 0.12V cranking, 0.15-0.25V at 2000 rpm. Check each coil such that +1, -3 is infinite or very high resistance, -3, +2 should do the same. (-1, +3), (+3, -2), (+1, -2), and (-1, +2) should all be somewhere between 0 ohms and high resistance. If you trace the path from the coil pin all the way back to the ECU in the diagram the resistance you measure at the coil vs connected to the harness should be pretty much the same. 
    • I have an elite 2500 running an adapter harness on an rb25de neo r34. I took the butterfly out and removed all that junk. But I also went Plus+t at the same time. The butterfly thing works in reverse to the boost solenoid on the Gtt if that makes sense
    • yeh they are 235/45/17 up front and 255/40/17 in the rears. I still didn't get my answer if i can fit a 18x9 up front. I want to get 4 of this and see if they will fit before committing as they didn't see an 18x8 as an option but there is a 18x9.5 also.   Enkei RS05-RR 18x9 35mm ET 5x114.3 75.0 Bore Matte Gunmetal Wheel
