Hey all

Im buying a set of XD9s.

I cant decide between gunmetal grey and black...

Ive never seen the gunmetal in person which makes it hard. Does anybody have any pics of them on car? and there coming from interstate...

the gray does look dark but its hard to see whithout really seeing them in the light etc

There going on a white 33 GTR.

Yeah the gunmetal is nowhere near as dark as the picture you put up the top.. Got mine from JDM concept too. There are pics of them on my white R33 too and off in the sun here if this link works : http://www.skylinesaustralia.com/forums/topic/389915-work-xd9-gunmetal-mgm/

Yeah they're really not.. I liked them on the white car.. Though I wanted black in the first place and if I still had the car I'd have gotten them powdercoated black by now.

Only reason i got the gunmetal was due to the 3 months or so wait for the black ones at the time - with plans to make them black eventually.

Black with the dish on all 4 wheels on the GTR would look nice I reckon.

Actually I'll have a look tonight - someone on here has/had the black XD9's on a white 33 GTR, think I have the pic saved somewhere.

    • They're all horrible. X-Trails have had a nasty sounding 4cyl since forever, no matter what engine family it came from. The CVTs only made that worse. Then the whole Renault thing only made every Nissan that was contaminated by them even worse again. The only fun I've had in a X-Trail was having it blown sideways across a frozen Minnesota highway at 90 mph trying to make it to the airport to get out of the frozen hellhole of Hoth. Nearly died. Was great fun.
    • Alrighty, I'll have to grab a couple pics and type out something soon in another post. I haven't driven a modern X no, this would be the first one really. Yeah the rental boxes are always cheap as chips right? So I'd doubt that anyone was handing out GTs to go and abuse. But I s'pose I could be wrong for sure. New cars these days though? Pretty unimpressed with what I see now; 20 years and all that, like you said. It just kind of worked out to have these two cars now. I'm pretty pleased with that, don't need much else. I'm sure you lads are right about the temps and for sure, you wouldn't have much time to drive 'em down there if you all were like me. I do hate sweating all over the seats though😆
    • Let large companies that are making money off selling kits do the preliminary engineering for you. If they all do -10, then that is all you'll ever need. 
    • Hopefully it ends up being something manageable, like a hone, rather than a full bore—it would be a huge relief if it’s not as bad as it looks. Hang in there; these setbacks are annoying, but it sounds like you’re handling it as smartly as possible.
    • At the end of the day, it’s all about understanding the odds and being comfortable with the potential cost, whether it’s horsepower on a build or chips on a roulette table. And I have to say, the Laine example made me laugh—some people really do embrace that carefree, “roll and see” attitude!
