As far as the coilovers go - in a nutshell chalk and cheese over stock suspension with lowered springs that I was running to date. The goods handles like it is on rails - would be absolut

In other news....

Going to spruce up the rims as best I can and then put all four on the car to narrow down what tyre specs I want to run.

Leaning towards 245s 40/45 18 (common size and therefore cheaper) - though I would like to run 255s.

Also debating what tyres to run.....tossing up between Ku31s, Sumitomo z111s and Toyo T1 sport

Awesome choice of wheels Jez. Got a photo with them on? I reckon it will transform the look of your car totally and the dish will suit the black-on-black theme you've got going...

Thanks - I do :wub: them.....

Will post pics asap.

Black centres... whats the sizing?

OH MAN...Don't start that again :domokun:

(I can hear Jonno screaming "all black" and my brain screaming "gold with silver lip" and you going "black centres please - thanks" - noooooooo its in my head !!!)

18x9 +35

Don't forget to look at the Nitto Invo Pro; killer spec for the price.

Those rims will definitely be a slick addition.

Cheers Dale...will check.

Any recommendations on where to pick up tyres from btw??

I pm'd Taleb Tyres on here but no reply yet.

Anyone bought anything from Ozzytyres?? - seemingly awesome pricing.

Amazing work! I'm glad to see someone else taking the one colour look so well.

(One day I'll make everything blue!)

Thanks man........plan to still keep the silver lip though even if I do powder coat the centres.

I like blue :geek:

Damn those rims look sexy as fark!

Love how this car has come along

Thanks mate :) There was a time when I was tempted to go with your setup (black on black looks killer too).

ITS MY BIRTHDAY !! :banana:

Went for a trial fit this morning to my local tyre place to finalize sizing etc.

As of now I am going to run 235/40R18 fronts and 255/35R18 rears

Will be ordering my new tyres soon.

Also, want the car looking the way I want it now so going to run 10 or 12 mm bolt on hubcentric spacers on the fronts to get the wheels looking a tad more agressive. (provided I find some - only found 15s so far) There is no way in hell I am running slip ons - say what you may!

Will not have to change the factory bolts as the rims have space for the protrusions (yay!!)....so might end up running spacers on the back as well. (P.S. I am aware of the legal stuff).

Stay tuned.

      R34 Handbrake light saying ON and intermittently flashing

      By Kinkstaah · Posted

      This. The R34 handbrake icon DOES come up when the brake fluid level is low. You might be sitting right on that threshhold. I have been down this diagnosis path and this was the solution (and it was pretty much as full as your picture is to begin with).

      Unfortunately the cavaet to that is that while any scan tool should be able to read the code, the workshop will need a consult plug to OBD socket adapter. You don't have a location on your profile, where are you based?

      RB25DE NEO with Haltech ECU

      By Kinkstaah · Posted

      @Haggerty this is your red flag. In MAP based ECU's the Manifold pressure X RPM calculation is how the engine knows it is actually...running/going through ANY load. You are confusing the term 'base map' with your base VE/Fuel table. When most people say 'base map' they mean the stock entire tune shipped with the ECU, hopefully aimed at a specific car/setup to use as a base for beginning to tune your specific car. Haltech has a lot of documentation (or at least they used to, I expect it to be better now). Read it voraciously.

      I saw you mention this earlier and it raised a red flag, but I couldn't believe it was real. Yes, the vacuum signal should vary. It is the one and only load signal from the engine to the ECU, and it MUST vary. It is either not connected or is badly f**ked up in some way.

      @Haggerty you still haven't answered my question.  Many things you are saying do not make sense for someone who can tune, yet I would not expect someone who cannot tune to be playing with the things in the ECU that you are.  This process would be a lot quicker to figure out if we can remove user error from the equation.
