These Kakimoto's

designed for the R32, they just look right.

I have a set with rubber for sale in gunmetal that matches your paint & offset.

they look better with the centre plate removed, the big alloy nut srewed back on minus the kakimoto logo - very street cred.

I'll post up a pic. Let me know if you want to trial fit.

i liked the Work rims to start with, but after having them on my car for a while now, im starting to dislike them. the design is good and the colour (gold with polished rim) its just that the spokes are really wide and dont go right to the edge of the rim. they are 18x9 and 18x10 and have mad dish, u just cant see much disc behind them and they look smaller than 18s. im going to get some Gram Lights 57 Pro's, they are made by Rays Engineering.

if anyone out there is looking for some 18" Work rims, the same as the gold ones above, off R33 gtst, gimme a pm.

cheers

oh and the 'trafficstar' 19" on FLYBYE (hpi issue 44) tickled my fancy.  but apparently there rare.  anyone know anything about them?  is the person who owns flybye on sau?

Also, FLYBYE is now known as TUFGTR and was at the Summernats making 659.8rwhp in HP heroes.

There are also another set of these wheels that look exactly the same but are called Axis - Deep dish at Ozzy Tyres:

I already have VOLK CV PRO's on mine, but will be changing them soon when I revamp the car's paint later this year. Would love some stockers for that "sleeper" look if anyone wants to trade. :P

Hey I have good set r32gtr rims. Look on Unique Autosports site. Under second hand rims. May trade.

I think R34 GT-R rims would look extremely alluring. R33 ones look cool on a 32 too.

Personally, I don't think there are many rims or bodykits that look better on a GT-R than what Nissan intended - the styling is so "right" from the factory.

My favourite wheels are magnesium RS-watanabe RS8's, in either gold or charcoal, the one piece super light ones - but not really the look for a GT-R.... Followed by Work Meister's and R34 GT-R wheels.

    • I've looked up the parts number (41011AL501). It's around $700 OEM. Usually our Infiniti G35 here in Canada have interchangeable parts with my Stagea but the parts number are not the same. I have looked around and it seems the JDM 2005 V35 Skyline (which is the same as our G35) has the same caliper but I cannot confirm. And I can't find a repair kit. The inner brake pads drags on the rotor, seems to be rusty piston. Thanks for the info by the way
    • This coupled with 6-9 speed autos with ridiculously short gearing is why these modern shitbox cars always seem so fast off the line. If it wasn't for those things, Raptors would not seem fast. The problem we have is there is a driveability gap between a more gentle take off and a wheelspinning sideways launch. The difference between ankle flex required to achieve one and ankle flex required to achieve the other is about 0.5°.
    • Yeah I think I'm also with the opposite here. It's 'hard to keep up with traffic' because in the real world I'm accelerating with 15% throttle and they are pinning it. It feels like I'm being an overt dickhead at anything above 15% throttle, so the car sounds like I'm being an overt dickhead to keep up with/get ahead of traffic when I'm really just trying to drive with traffic. There would be no issue 'keeping up with traffic' if we used the same level of throttle input/aggression to drive around. People really do just drive around with their foot nearly pinned in econoboxes.
    • To be fair it's the other way around. 300kw is boring in a modern Golf or BMW. They are so competent / well-engineered / devoid of emotion that you have to go stupid fast to feel anything. Whereas the <300kw RB still makes all the right noises and it feels good to drive. Can pull off at the lights with the turbo whooshing and the blow-off pssshing and feel like the coolest kid on the block. Just don't look to the side where you'll see the bored housewifes in their shitbox Yaris/Corolla/Camry that kept up because you didn't go fast at all
    • 300kW is so boring in a Skyline, you'll get spanked by someone's mum's Golf with Alibaba pipes, and an email tune.
