Yeah I know about that site (its where I got the links to the pictures I posted before).

I was looking at the JTGC(sp) Skylines/350z and what they have on, they look slanted. That's the look I want basically.

Lucien, very nice photoshop there. Love the wheels but one thing that has stopped me from ordering these, or my fave Nismo LMGT4's is the lack of dish!!! Yes the inward slanted spokes issue had always confused me. I thought it was an offset issue? In any case I have just found out that my Brembos do not fit under my BBS LM's!!! I am not 100% sure but my mechanic seems to think they might not fit. In this case I will HAVE to buy new rims (or opt for spacers). So, time's a tickin!!!! Deep dish WORK Meisters or LMGT4's or TE37's! ARGH! It's headache material for sure.

justinfox: well, they aren't really a dish style wheel, but there are plenty of similar designs (copies, on might suggest) that incorporate a dish if that's what your after :)

Personally I don't mind the lack of dish because I like the styling of the TE-37s. Offset will effect the slanting, but AFAIK they all have some inwards slant.

Its a little hard to make out, but those are Nismo LM GTMAG's I believe. They are made under license by Rays/Volk, and are basically a TE-37 varient with one less spoke and a slightly different design around the wheel nut area.

IWells, have you got your rims yet???

Actually, since you mention is, they are being loaded into a car for transport on wednesday: car leaves bound for Syney on saturday so all being well I should have them in three weeks.

But things ever goes according to plan when it comes to the import game :D

    • Ok I get you. But isn’t the butterfly intake a headache with the +T?  see this is my plan so far but please advise me into the right direction.  Nistune Ecu, 1000cc Bosch injectors, TD05 or TD06 Kinugawa turbo using stock rb25det exhuast manifold, walbro fuel pump unsure of model I think it’s 450/460, spitfire coils and sparks to suit and a R35 MAF sensor and boost sensor.    I was thinking maybe do a cheap eBay plenum $400-500 or try find a stock det neo intake. I think I’d port match it so it’s getting the full capacity but open to advice please.  Thanks 
    • The issue now is the 'fuel cut' while driving, and when it happend, it does not stall. This, I did not test the fuel pressure while driving as I cannot with a fuel pressure gauge. I do have Nistune logs, yes. I have also replaced the MAF Sensor.   Also related to the FPG Fuel Hanger – I just realized that I need a Deutsch Crimp Tool to crimp some cables for the FPG Fuel Hanger. Need to purchase additional cables as the kit only included 2, which are for the float. FPG has not responded to my emails so far since purchasing. I thought about taking it to someone and having it done professionally, but I am reluctant since everyone I took it to messed up in some way.  
    • There's a good German place in Brisbane if youre up for the drive 😛
    • The German place in Cabramatta was rock solid, fresh pretzel cooked to order back then. Then it went all quiet, after all the poker machines were removed, then I believe it closed for good. I did drive past the other week and noticed outdoor lighting a big screen, but no idea what is there now.  
    • Yeah I suspect even if you hold airmass per cycle/cylinder constant if you get too far away from stock you're still going to have problems running the factory tune within the bounds of the factory load scale. Cams, different displacement/rod ratio, etc. I'm just lucky that the GTIII-SS with wastegate boost + CA compliance cats is pretty much equivalent to stock turbos. When I have actual space I can finally get it tuned and modify the fuel system for flex fuel to 100% handle any detonation concerns when cranking the boost to whatever those dinky turbos can put out.
