What rim sizes and offsets are you running. Stretched tyre on rear?

Again looks f**king great! Is it gunmetal?

225 on a 18x10+15 rim, those are my crappy rotas, gonna go 18x10+20 rears soon and 9.5 +5 fronts

Its a gtr front bar and fenders with some pumped over fenders/ door cover things and a stock rear bar.

Loads of work to get the rear pumped like that, not just plug and play

Looking good moh :woot: do mine next for freeeeeeeeee :whistling:

Okay, been busy teeing up the window guy and sending iy off for road worthy etc

As for the kit, well, its a cheap kit, very thin so we added more glass to.it to get it a bit stronger.

One thing I that challenged us, was that the kit was actually too small.. we had to shave a fair bit and extend some bits and pieces, alsothe rear doors don't line up with the fronts anymore because of the added width, so you have 2 choices, skim the rear half of the front doors with some bog or keep it with uneven doors lol.

And last but not least, what irritates me the most is that, the kit is a bit uneven, once we fit the back bar back on, the bottom passenger side where the bar meets the body was not flush where as the other side was its not major bit its there. Other than that. There's a lot of work to go into these types of kits. Will I do it again? f**k no.

    • Wife wanted basket things in the wardrobe in our temporary house. Thought about ripping our the wardrobe and fitting the entire IKEA set, but it's a temporary house and we want to move in a few years. So IKEA advertises this as a 50cm unit, however the actually basket and rails measure 46cm wide. Only issue was depth, IKEA stuff is quite deep, where as the builder special junk is super shallow at less than 40cm. Send it, chopped the rails, then offset the mounting holes, job done, happy wife, less shit scattered all over the bedroom. Did the same to the other side too. Also drove the Skyline shit box today, dropped off oil at Supercheap Auto. I didn't realise they only now take max 2x bottles per visit. I visited 2x Supercheap Autos.  
    • I've seen similar actually in my situation. You never know what tables are attempted to be used when the car thinks it's -99C or +200C. The fail state is not usually that extreme but you know what I mean - it was in my case though! This is where being able to read all the sensors is useful cause you see this stuff really quickly.
    • The above is very important. However as long as you keep timing relatively low, it's plausible to make your own knock ears and plausible to learn to tune with a modern ECU that can do wideband O2 correction like a boost controller. I mean if you only have one viable road to even drive the car on, learning to tinker to this level may be worth doing given you can't do much else with the car...?
    • I find the fact that the rear plate has to be bent inwards at the rear not so bad: but the front is just awful: It's like come on. (these are my very old, now retired/turned in plates) TBH it is a lot of money to fix a minor issue, the fact I said "I'll never really spend the money on doing this" is why people ended up buying them as a gift for a 'car guy' who can be hard to shop for.. for car guy things.
    • I just bent the ends of my premo plates. It even went through Regency like that after the engine conversion and the inspector (a great bloke!) just squinted his eyes and said "I didn't see that". Plates, and how they look, are just something that have zero importance to me.
