damn, pity I didn't see this thread earlier, could have warned you off them...

Anyway, for people searching in the future, I'm running 18x11 +18 and they touch the suspension upright before full lock, so not ideal. I'll probably try and get some 5mm spacers to just get them out far enough to clear, but they're pretty much flush with the guards as is.

Does look good though.... :D

Any pics :D

Wheels are now on properly

Wheel specs are

Front: 19 x 11 ET15

Rear: 19 x 11 ET25

295/30/19 Yokohoma Advan V103 tyres all round :)

Next tyre change I'm gonna drop it down to a 285 tyre to give me a bit more clearance, Coilovers to come in the new year along with a probable arch roll and Z-Tune front wings to give even more movement :)

I know it needs centre caps - I just cant find any I like & I know the silver nuts looks silly but I've got some black ones due anytime from Adam @ Z1

Proper pics to come over the weekend assumming it stops raining at some point :rolleyes:

That looks awesome :wub:

How much are you lowered by? Have you had to roll the arches or remove the guards? What tyre size?

Thanks!

Ride height is355mm from centre of wheel to wheel arch and the tyre size is 295/30/18. I haven't had to roll the guards at all but then again the cusco suspension is pretty firm and I don't think I've managed to get that much compression into the springs. A track day may change that though...

Also Ian, love those RE30s - they're one of my other rims of choice. But as everyone else is saying - needs more low!

Then again, if it's your daily, would make sense not to drop it - My heart is in my mouth every speed hump and dished road crossing

Front track is wider than rear?

In pictures, the rims are so flat. Can't see much of the re30 :(

Looks great though.

At the moment yeah. I'll see how it goes with them set up like this and go from there :)

Thanks!

Thats just what I wanted to hear :D I'm also running 295/30 and planning for Cusco coilovers (Had them on my 350Z and they were epic!)

Looks great Ian. Do u have plans 2 lower it?

Yup, lowering will be next. I'll take the car off the road over winter and get it ready for summer (coilovers, hardpipes and a few carbon touches ;))

    • @GTSBoy This method was able to get readings of -10 to -2, so it looks like its monitoring.  Now I need to figure out why the vacuum on the line provided isn't alternating with manifold pressure.  I went with 2 lines that an RB25 tuner recommended but I'll get a longer hose and try directly off the back of the manifold.  He may have been used to OEM intake setups while I have a DBW setup that removed the MAF and IACV.  
    • I work at a car detailing and tinting shop called Quark which gets all manner of German cars in usually (mainly due to a contract with Mercedes Benz Kita Osaka, BMW Nishinomiya and others) but every once in a while something special comes in, like a fully restored 1972 HS30 Nissan Fairlady 240ZG... The shop owner had immediately started applying film to the windows as soon as it was in the shop so the interior was completely covered in towels and plastic sheets. But I could get a few photos of the engine bay which was restored like new. Such an amazing car to see in pristine condition in Japan these days.  
    • Was going to say the car pulls up nicely everywhere, especially going into that last long right hander before the main straight. Looks like a lot of fun.
    • Hey Dave, welcome aboard! Good to see another soon-to-be Stagea owner here. The wagons are awesome — plenty of space, still got that Skyline DNA, and loads of potential if you’re into mods. Definitely post up pics when you get it, everyone here loves seeing new builds. What model/year are you looking at?
