I got my stock 17s if you need to borrow a set for a while. Kinda just taking up space in the garage

Thanks for the offer but I've got a set of 17 inch stockers on there as of tonight. I changed 4 rims in 35 degree heat in under an hour using the scissor jack.......it was rough.

Ill be on the 17s for about 8 weeks while import monster brings my replacement rims in ;-)

Hey Yun -

about 3 hours after I picked up the stockies from you I won a set on Yahoo Japan that I had been keeping my eye on.

They are SSR SP3 20x9(+6), 20x10(+16).

Cheers, yes through Aaron at import monster.

The jist of it is, register an account, search using their English translated interface with yahoo.jp, if you find something you like you transfer min 50% expected sale proce as a deposit into your own account and bid away. If you win, you must transfer the remaining amount into the account. Import monster pays the seller - and you sit back and what for your items to arrive.

Aaron is very helpful and although I've only bought small stuff before, he has always been very patient and quick with answering all my questions.

The hardest part is finding what you want - the options are endless!

NIce find and Tyres is nice too :) Looks like it's the Nitto brand.

Just noticed. Is the front will fit and clear brembo? the one you had before is 19x 9.5 +22 and the SSR is 20 x 9 +6 Hope it's not sticking out too much.

Thanks Yun.

The fronts will stick out an extra 10mm. With a 235 they will clear the guards fine. And they are hyper disk fronts, so plenty of brake clearance. Rears sit at exactly the same point - just more inner clearance. They actually came off a v35 according to the translated ad.

Tyres are Nittos but the rears are shot. They will be replaced.

Fantastic news! I have actually just finish building a time machine in my house - it's in the cupboard where I keep the broom. I can take you forward two years and you can have them!!! If you pay me half now, half when we arrive in the future you have got yourself a deal!!

    • The ATTESSA is functionally identical to R34; there were a bunch of JDM models that continued ATTESSA including Fuga/Q70, Skyline/Q50, Cima etc as an option. All with Auto only and I think mostly for snow regions. AFAIK there were no AWD VR30DDTT sold in Australia - it is on my to do list to check regs for racing a LHD car in Targa/ATR/AASA/CAMS events because if I can get the auto to work it would be interesting to run a 4wd car The Ecuteck TCM tuning is the same model as their ECU tuning, they already have it for R35 and Dose's favourite, BMW. You buy "points" to allow your computer to be tuned, buy either a bluetooth (phone app) or bluetooth+USB+Key (phone and PC) dongle, and pay for a tune that will be locked to your tuner ( ). You can also access the tuning software yourself but 1. it is mega expensive and 2. these computers have a billion parameters that intersect, so how could you ever spend enough time on it to get a decent result.
    • Or, is it a case of what it is like owning an R series Skyline? NFI what the previous owner has done or fiddled with... Ha ha ha After reading through this thread, I went on a bit of a research about the Q50/Q60. Now I'm quite intrigued by them! Is the AWD in them more like a WRX where it's always AWD, or is it more like the ATTESSA in the GTRs? By the sound of this TCU tuning, this sounds like a case of someone has made some real software for it, and you just need the right piece of hardware, and then you license that specific vehicle/TCU. Or is this a case of the software will be really expensive so only a few tuners have it, and you still have to pay a license per vehicle?
    • By popular demand.. it was a coil. Got my hands on 1 new OEM coil, replaced with the one that made the less noise difference when I unplugged it while the car was running and started the car up. No stutter and the engine light was gone. I guess I’ll buy the other 5 they have lol
    • No, code 21 is very straightforward. It can only be the things described in that diagnostic flow. In fact it has no way of knowing that the spark plug resistance is out of spec.
    • Hi, SteveL Thank you very much for your reply, you seem to be the only person on the net who has come up with a definitive answer for which I am grateful. The "Leak" was more by way of wet bubbles when the pedal was depressed hard by a buddy while trying to gey a decent pedal when bleeding the system having fitted the rebuilt BM50 back in the car, which now makes perfect sense. A bit of a shame having just rebuilt my BM50, I did not touch the proportioning valve side of things, the BM50 was leaking from the primary piston seal and fluid was running down the the Brake booster hence the need to rebuild, I had never noticed any fluid leaking from that hole previously it only started when I refitted it to the car. The brake lines in the photo are "Kunifer" which is a Copper/Nickel alloy brake pipe, but are only the ones I use to bench bleed Master cylinders, they are perfectly legal to use on vehicles here in the UK, however the lines on the car are PVF coated steel. Thanks again for clearing this up for me, a purchase of a new BMC appears to be on the cards, I have been looking at various options in case my BM50 was not repairable and have looked at the HFM BM57 which I understand is manufactured in Australia.
