Justin, It's the angle of the photo it's really about the same, your car is longer...mine is higher.

I think that is why he put the smiley in there...

Can't wait to see you in QLD Streeter... I might be judging too!!! Maybe...

OK people...me personally, not sure about the weekend Oct 9th, 10th and 11th...but in November at the Nissan Prince Skyline Museum in Nagano there is a Skyline Festival.

Details (in Japanese) are here:

http://www.lcv.ne.jp/~yamabiko/skyline/frame2.html

event is on the 10th November (sunday)

The museum itself is well worth the visit, and I'm sure there will likely be a big turn out of Skylines to be seen.

I've also just discovered (scribbled on my calendar) "Skyline Fest Nagano" on Sunday 10th October. Can't for the life of me think what that is all about. I'll do a search through my links later, but if anyone is aware of something going off on that day, in Nagano, let us know! :P

yeah I know...but you have to admit the BNR34 does look bigger until I checked them both after the E7 released...what is surprising is the GT-R is still running on basically the same track...you'd think it would be larger than the Evos.

OK let's test the Wine Red 32...let's take a drive out to Awaji-jima Saturday or Sunday morning!

spacers are your friend.  looks like 5-10mm wont hurt anyway.  Get those rims right out and flush with the guards (and that will help your centre caps clear your front hubs).

not an option as I wil just make the rubbing much worst. Plus I'm not going to bang on a couple of spacers just to ft center caps...I'll just changeceter cap type or take them off all together:)

Dave that Skyline thing souds pretty cool. I hope I can make it as I have yet to visit that Skyline museum!

Justin it isn't that far to Nagano, Yamanashi or Hankone for that matter ;) But I don't mind meeting at some point between Osaka/Kobe and here...Nagoya sounds OK, but is there anything to see/do there? :D

Besides, all you need on the expressway is a length of rope tied between Troy's Evo and your R32 - you'll have no problems keeping up with him then, and if something mechanical goes wrong he can pull you along :D :D :D

Hmm doesnt make the decision any easier....Both look stunning....might come down to price i suppose...Any idea's of the price differance for a set of 17 X 9.5 ?out of interst are you guys running same size?

Also on the new Ztune r34 gtr's that rezz had a toy model of, were they gt4's the black rims....? i think they look the business but cant seem to locate them for sale in that colour anywhere...?

Thanks alot for the additional pics champ Sweet rides!

I love those wheels, a guy I work with just got a set in bronze for his White R33 GT-R. Oh his didn't come with center caps either and he bought them new, not sure if that's an option or not.

I'm officially in shock!!

I do a little work on the side (kids eikaiwa) for the dealership where I buy my cars - and I spotted this, my old r33 GTS, aka 'the slug'

3857n0.jpg

It was a 20man trade in with the forester - and was advertised on the lot for 20man

Then I see it today (after hearing that it was sold several weeks ago), in the dealership garage - with a new 'pimp tint' and a very sexy set of rims

I couldn't believe that someone actually turned the slug into a damn pretty car!!

half of me is thinking 'wow, I didn't know the old beater had it in her'... the other half is thinking 'wow, who would have done that...' haha

price? you can always get them used and get it cheaper. it does come black but it is rare to find (at least i havent). we are running the same size 17x9.5 but the only difference is the tires. he got better ones i dont. haha.

:sadam:

just wanted to use it for no reason, hehe.

    • Nice! I hope it all works out. At least now you know the track as well and can build from last year. Looking forward to see your car in action again.   Ooof. Godspeed!
    • We let the engine warm up as much as it could while stationary and with the head check plugged into the open radiator but I see you're point that it would be difficult to get it to the point where it begins to overheat. The overheating issue only began after the initial problem with the empty radiator. Until then I had driven the car almost daily without any issues (with the gktech fan etc.) I'm beginning to suspect butters may be right and that it's a head gasket issue, just difficult to find the time to work on the car lately. And whether or not it's even worth doing the head gasket etc. on the 20 when I am, extremely slowly, building a 25 for this car.
    • Yeah, alright, I take it back. I hadn't bothered to compare the terminal numbers - they're not the same. I was working on the presumption that it was the "small plug" half of the HICAS CU because it has the same plug as the small plug on the HICAS CU. And...the drawing says "Refer to Super HICAS system circuit diagram" which seemed to place it firmly in the world of HICAS, not non-HICAS.
    • You definitely have a big problem if with the adjustment screw closed up you're idling at 1200 rpm. Have you verified you have no vacuum leaks? No throttle shaft seal leaks? Nobody has messed with the throttle body set screws? I would love to see what Consult reports when your engine is idling that high.
    • HICAS has a much more complicated circuit diagram, for some reason the R32 GTR service manual discusses both. The HICAS module has proper 2 way communication over consult, the "EPS control unit" doesn't have any of that and only exposes a raw analog voltage for the EPS solenoid valve. It's ultimately mostly about speed sensitive steering but the non-HICAS unit also looks at the neutral switch/brake/clutch switch to adjust how it provides assist.
