They don't do Nitto. There was another site that did, can't remember the name right now.

I called tyrepower hawthorn to find out prices of 245/255 17s, they want $350 minimum for anything decent (ad08, rsr or star spec)

Tire Rack has Z1 SS for $186 each. So $744 total, last time I paid $235 IIRC for shipping for a set of 15s. I suppose 17s might be $300 or so? $40 to $60 to fit the tyres and alignment between $40-$100

At MOST that'd be $1200, MINIMUM $350 would get you into the $1400-$1500 mark pretty quick

Ladies and Gentlemen,

Big 80's/90's group A fan here. Bought a R32 Gtr finally and love it, actually daily driving it (won't show it yet till it has got it's new shoes on - totally 80's (3 spoke advans) at the mo and I want 90's! (BBS RS)).

See you all are having a lot of trouble with meets/greets and cops. Sad to see. Just saying hi as I am sure a lot of meets will go undergound and hoping to come/be invited to some.

Tommorrow my Dad (with a Focus RS) are going for a blast up Healseville way and then cleaning at Eltham wash at about 9:30am - 10am.

Cheers, Lincoln.

Welcome Lincoln, put the picture with the tri-spoke Advans up anyway (I like Advan Tri-spoke rims).

Join the club, their meets are usually well organised with zero cops (from when I've attended), not exactly underground stuff and we're friendly bunch.

I lugged a set of these in checked baggage from Gemany... However was a little optomistic with the 2.5 in lips (they fit the back!!!!!!) however waiting for 1.5 in lips to arrive for the fronts (it's a V-spec so 40mm hub to caliper clearance).

    • I mean, I can confirm the TPS is at 100%.... I can confirm when we installed the TB and setup the cable that the TB was indeed fully open at max pedal travel.. the same 'curve' (WRT MAP vs MAP) existed with the previous setup/TB/manifold as well... No, we did not do a run with no intake connected. I would love to go back in time to do such a run to rule out the intake. It would have also been good to do a run with the airbox lid off. There's a test there where increased IAT vs more available air could be a positive tradeoff. I remember taking the lid off my R34 Turbo setup back in the day and noticing a monster increase, even if IAT's did go up. Could be similar. Hard to test unless I find a very deserted road. 
    • That's actually encouraging to be honest. my motor was rebuild many years ago but it's probably done less than 30,000kms and fucc all limiter or drift, majority street / drag / roll racing. It'll be fine 💪🏼 I don't even have lines or a can for the cam breathers installed yet, there is zero oil residue or splatter on or around them, it drives beautifully so it seems healthy. Just a ticky lifter, yet they're almost brand new oem genuine Nissan and haven't done many kms at all...
    • Have you confirmed the throttle body goes to WOT (and stays there) during the run?
    • I'm having a problem. I think it was mentioned above somewhere but can't see it.  I'm stuck in the cycle of, sand, filler, low spot again, put filler, sand, low spot again, now i put filler again and a thicker portion which seems to have helped but I got low spots in other areas. In the image. Circled in red thats where the original low spot was and the shape is the same as the red out line. I've more or less fixed that (still low spot up the top but now I have low spots where the green circled part is.  Is likely the issue that I didn't start with a course sand paper? I sanded the filler with 240 to reduce the risk of not going to far but maybe the issue is that I'm only taking off enough material to remove some of the filler but not the high spots. I now started sanding with 120 and I think I'm seeing a difference. I did fix one dent the other 2 are f**ked and seems like I made another low spot which is indicated by the furthest green circle on the left handside. Any thoughts and solutions?   Also second image. All of these rock chips, can they be filled in with primer or do i need to fill them all with filler/putty? So many rock chips on mine lol.
    • Well, I had an Edward Lee's special edition odo windback car/motor with a RB25DET S2 and I put down 372kW with a good amount of track abuse for 1.5 years before the ring lands decided it didn't want to stick around anymore 🥲 But probably didn't help I kept on smashing try limiter on the track and a few skid pans.
