Can you please tell me how it feels when you go over pot holes? Isnt that wheel hanging out of the guard which means the guards are going to be f*ked up soon :s

dave, that set on the 32 with the dark grey centre with polished lip look sexual. like BBS LMs (probably one of my fav R32 GTR wheels) but with nice curve in the centre to give it some depth.

you could try 11s but will definitely need some careful offset choice and at the least rolling/folding the guard lips and possibly even a little bit of flaring (doubt it though). fronts will be the same. need to fold the lip for sure and possibly remove the guard liners or at least modify them (can heat them up and re-shape them a bit).

I'll say it again, they look hot. 18X10.5 or 18X11 with somewhere between +15 and +20 and you should be right. could order them in +20 or so and adjust as needed with small spacer.

good choice mate. 17s look way better on R32s. all the tough R32s in japan run 17s. I once asked a mate why and he said (my rough translation) "it just looks right/proper/correct". :)

the only reason I guess most go 18s in for brake clearance but the right 17s can still fit some pretty serious brakes. my F50s with 355mm rotors fit easily under 17inch Nismo LM GT4s with a lower profile caliper I reckon you could get bigger rotors under there.

I do like the teddy bear wheels. tough call really between those and the CCW.

    • No, code 21 is very straightforward. It can only be the things described in that diagnostic flow. In fact it has no way of knowing that the spark plug resistance is out of spec.
    • Hi, SteveL Thank you very much for your reply, you seem to be the only person on the net who has come up with a definitive answer for which I am grateful. The "Leak" was more by way of wet bubbles when the pedal was depressed hard by a buddy while trying to gey a decent pedal when bleeding the system having fitted the rebuilt BM50 back in the car, which now makes perfect sense. A bit of a shame having just rebuilt my BM50, I did not touch the proportioning valve side of things, the BM50 was leaking from the primary piston seal and fluid was running down the the Brake booster hence the need to rebuild, I had never noticed any fluid leaking from that hole previously it only started when I refitted it to the car. The brake lines in the photo are "Kunifer" which is a Copper/Nickel alloy brake pipe, but are only the ones I use to bench bleed Master cylinders, they are perfectly legal to use on vehicles here in the UK, however the lines on the car are PVF coated steel. Thanks again for clearing this up for me, a purchase of a new BMC appears to be on the cards, I have been looking at various options in case my BM50 was not repairable and have looked at the HFM BM57 which I understand is manufactured in Australia.  
    • Well the install is officially done. Filled with fluid and bled it today, but didn't get a chance to take it on a test drive. I'll throw some final pics of the lines and whatnot but you can definitely install a DMAX rack in an R33 with pretty minor mods. I think the only other thing I had to do that isn't documented here is grind a bit of the larger banjo fitting to get it to clear since the banjos are grouped much tighter on the DMAX rack. Also the dust boots from a R33 do not fit either fyi, so if you end up doing this install for whatever reason you'll need to grab those too. One caveat with buying the S15 dust boots however is that the clamps are too small to fit on the R33 inner tie rod since they're much thicker so keep the old clamps around. The boots also twist a bit when adjusting toe but it's not a big deal. No issues or leaks so far, steering feels good and it looks like there's a bit more lock now than I had before. Getting an alignment on Saturday so I'll see how it feels then but seems like it'll be good to go
