So much mirin Toby

Dark rims suit it I reckon!

Yeah dark rims are good

At the moment the current rims aren't wide enough

And I can't fit spacers at the moment even up to 25mm as the rim hub still hits the old studs

hot dam that paint is gorgeous, it just gets better and better

Thanks scmate!

shiiiieeet can't wait to see in person

Soon Leroy! Soon!

Down at OTR to fit a set of 265/40/18 Hankook Rs3 tyres

Big range of rims and friendly bunch of guys.

Tried some Te37 SL's 18 x 10.5 + 15 for fun. They have an Advan 050 295 tyre on them i think

Hankooks on

Front tyres are scrubbing the top bit of the suspension so I need to go either a 35 profile tyre or somehow fix the problem

Hnnng those TE37s are hot, awesome colour combo maybe you should treat yourself for christmas?

Ahh thanks mate. Spending that much on rims is out of my price range at the moment. I don't mind TE37's but prefer them in 19's with the dish!

So this is what happens when you run too chunky of a tyre. Suspension arm/knuckle is touche the tyre. Might need to angle grind it down for more clearance

Also I did play around with the idea of white writing on the tyres after seeing one on a hankook race car. But decided not to go ahead with it haha

Ah, I see now.

That's the camber arm, not the knuckle. Just cut the arm down.

If you really want, buy a offset bush and offset the arm higher. It will clear easy that way.

Oh i forgot to say that pic is with a 8mm spacer that I was trialing

Oh thanks. I have no idea about suspension bits lol

Might look into the offset bush if it is also a cheap solution

Are there other bits I may as well change at the same time if I change the bush?

Suspension is stock except for coilovers, so would like to do a few things to improve the handling before the next track day

I know I probably need front and rear adjustable camber arms for more negative camber

Isn't 40 profile bit too tall for Skylines? Most run 35 profile.

Yes it is a bit tall haha

Test fit of XD9's 18x10 + 18 265 Achilles tyre. Plenty of clearance

I don't mind Xd9s...

Hehe just borrowing a friends wheel for now till i fix the issue

    • I thought I'd come back and add something I JUST learned. A Toyota LandCruiser with a 1HZ, mates perfectly with a bottle of Nulon brake fluid. As in, it perfectly screws in. Great make shift funnel when you cut the bottom of it off. This may work for your Corolla.   Unfortunately, tipping a 10L drum is much harder than a 4 to 6L bottle, and they no longer include the easy pour tap which was just perfection to use previously.  
    • Guys since i bought r33 gts25t coupe 1994 automatic a/t(manual swap 350z gearbox)  all i got is problems, always problems. Lets start with that when i turn key into ignition(ON) fuel pump doesnt always works. Sometimes i have to turn key twice Off/on/off/on until it primes. Its new, dw300 - 340lph. My gearbox broke so i did gearbox swap, install different intake manifold, injectors and i take pipes. Car was sitting in garage for more than half a year. I did assembly all not that long ago and when i turn ignition cant hear prime. All of sudden it stopped working. Theres many videos on YouTube how to make relay mod on r33 straight from battery so i did and it doesnt work! 😰 30 - battery positive  87 - positive from fuel pump to relay 85, 86 - one of two wires from original fuel pump wires(light blue, grey) and it didn’t work. so I check on ignition and took original BLUE relays wires from trunk, next to fuses. (I believe it’s IGN+ and ECU pin 18. it didn’t work…  tried connecting (IGN+ from og relay) and (ECU 104 from 1of4 FPCM wires) to my new relay 85/86 and it didn’t work.  I unplug FPCM. Didn’t work. im thinking what’s wrong   fuel pump is working, if I leave IGN+ on 85 and 86 straight to ground it works but it’s just nonstop. Since it getting constant 12v after key in ON. light blue wire gives me 6-8v.  so how this should be connected? What causing ECU not giving — on pin? Or I did sth wrong and that’s why it doesn’t work? I need negative signal on ECU that control fuel pump. What this should be?
    • You can use your VIN to look up the factory part number somewhere like amayama, and then look to order new if necessary. https://www.amayama.com/en/genuine-catalogs/nissan Depending on price you might want to rebuild instead. @GTSBoy I had an interesting insight into US market parts when the Titan rear calipers were sticking. New calipers were dirt cheap, about 20% more than a rebuild kit....they are just considered throw away maintenance items
    • Funny, but really not funny. Thank god (most) f the world has moved on since then
    • Lots of votes for driving onto a plank first; that is the quickest way I've found, 25mm is enough for my case but that will vary by car It also depends where you are going for. On the 32 I can get to the rear diff with my floor jack if I do that end first, and get it up on stands. Then I lift the front from either front tow hook as high as needed, also onto stands. Sometimes I need a small lift on the other tow hook to get it level enough If I do the front first I can't get to the rear diff because of the angle of the car Other options are getting to the front mount of the rear subframe from in front of the wheel (if only lifting one side, or just do both which is a bit of a pain compared to one lift from the diff), or also the gearbox cross member mount on the driver's side if you are  just trying to lift the driver's side. I This is the jack I use; it says 75mm clearance but of course that is only on the lower section so if you have to reach too far in like the diff you still get stuck. https://www.snapon-bluepoint.com.sg/category/Floor-Jacks/product/Floor-Jack,-2-Ton-Low-Profile
