Beautiful wheels. Are they forged and what country makes them as the name sounds german?

They're cast te37 knock offs so I'm going to say china? Bit of a downgrade from the lmgt3's imo.

Their entire range is knock offs, they're available in the trader section.

Rest of the build looks great though, love the updates.

Fairly sure they are American, but yes the whole company is just about knock offs. I mean they can't even come up with their own description:

Not sure why Enkei haven't sued them for that.

Anyway, don't want to clutter up this thread with that, it's an excellent build thread and at least they are nice looking wheels! thumbsup.gif

All informations about the wheels you can find here:

Yes, they are Te37 knock offs. But I have no problems with this fact. Also other firms have Te37 replicas like Rota or ASA wheels.

The Varrstoen have been used from Ken Block for example. I know other high performance Skylines (round about 600~800hp) which also use this Varrstoen wheels on the racetrack and they had no problems with them.

So, I`m sure, this wheels are good enaugh for me, and they cost a fraction of the the Rays =)

Yesterday I was at High Import Performance to look after my car =) To get the sky on an other position in the garage we we fitted wheels and tires from a friend.

After that I feld that the Tein Typ RA suspension is really hard^^ Too hard? We will see =)

I get my Ferodo braking fluid

And I tried to fit the new Mocal oil cooler =) Really big but it looks like that it fitts on the same position like before. Now I have to fix the cooling panels for the cooler.

    • What are we supposed to be seeing in the photo of the steering angle sensor? The outer housing doesn't turn, right? All the action is on the inside. The real test here is whether or not your car has had the steering put back together by a butcher. When the steering is centred (and we're not caring about the wheel too much here, we're talking about the front wheels, parallel, facing front) then you should have an absolutely even number of turns from centre to left lock and centre to right lock. If there is any difference at all then perhaps the thing has been put back together wrongly, either the steering wheel put on one spline (or more!) off, and the alignment bodged to straighteb the wheel, or the opposite where something silly was done underneath and the wheel put back on crooked to compensate. Nut there isn't actually much evidence that you have such a problem anyway. It is something you can easily measure and test for to find out though. My money is still on the HICAS CU not driving the PS solenoid with the proper PWM signal required to lighten the load at lower speed. If it were me, I would be putting either a multimeter or oscilloscope onto the solenoid terminals and taking it for a drive, looking for the voltage to change. The PWM signal is 0v, 12V, 0V, 12v with ...obviously...modulated pulse width. You should see that as an average voltage somewhere between 0V and 12V, and it should vary with speed. An handheld oscilloscope would be the better tool for this, because they are definitely good enough but there's no telling if any cheap shit multimeter that people have lying around are good enough. You can also directly interfere with the solenoid. If you wire up a little voltage divider with variable resistor on it, and hook the PS solenoid direct to 12V through that, you can manually adjust the voltage to the solenoid and you should be able to make it go ligheter and heavier. If you cannot, then the problem is either the solenoid itself dead, or your description of the steering being "tight" (which I have just been assuming you mean "heavy") could be that you have a mechanical problem in the steering and there is heaps of resistance to movement.
    • Little update  I have shimmed the solenoid on the rack today following Keep it Reets video on YouTube. However my steering is still tight. I have this showing on Nisscan, my steering angle sensor was the closest to 0 degrees (I could get it to 0 degrees by small little tweaks, but the angle was way off centre? I can't figure this out for the life of me. I get no faults through Nisscan. 
    • The BES920 is like the Toyota Camrys of coffee machines. E61 group head is cool, however the time requirements for home use makes it less desirable. The Toyota Camry coffee machine runs twin boilers and also PID temp control, some say it produces coffees as good as an E61 group head machine.
    • And yes with a full tank it will hit limiter free revving or driving 6B6CDF6E-4094-426D-A9CB-6C553475FE36.mp4
    • One way of putting the fuel surge idea to rest, is that even when in neutral/clutch in or free revving it still has the same issue, it can’t even get to limiter (7800) so to me that says it can’t be g force, I’m not trying to argue I just want to find the f&$king issue 😡
