what do ya reckon? Reckon the D-specs would come out the same silver as the GT4's in the right light?

Justin you able to confirm whether the silver is the same as the Nismo?

i dunno about getting them in 17", they're are the kinda wheel which look smaller than they actually are, as opposed to something spokey like the R34 GTR rim.

you got any good pics of the side of your car adz? see what 18's look like?

cheers.

D-Spec wheels (if you've seen them in real life) have a very special spoke design that, even though they have moderate offset (+30), they look like the spokes are dished right into the center of the wheel, almost like they have +0 offset (a la Volk TE37s for AE86).

 

The LM GT4s only look "+0 offset deep spoke" style when they are for GT-R offsets/widths. Usually for GTS-ts and GTS25-ts the GT4s look fairly ordinary. Don't bag me for that comment, I see GT4s ALOT and I don't fancy them so much anymore.

yeah, can see that from the pics on the first page. I like that tho, i like how they sit in a bit.

and looking at the pics in your gallery Adz, they don't have a much 'dish' as the d-spec do they? Still look hot, just don't sit in as much.

The link you put up Justin, are they the company that makes them or is that just a site that sells them? they only have 17" listed, do they come in 18"?? The pics of the chromes on the first page of this thread look like they are 18", but just wondering whether they look like 18" just cos they are on a R32??

i really like the dish look, now to see if they'll fit a R34.... :P

cheers.

Rezz: i take it that what they are trying to achive is the look that the spokes are angled outwards rather than straight up vertical....would this look be achieve even with cars that dont require alot of offset?

How much are they anyway for 18s?

i got a set of GT4's from these guys in the states 18/8.5 front & 18/9.5 rears including shipping to the uk was £1285

dude, that's like $3100 AUD for a set of 18" GT4's, that's a bargain!! And i only want 17" so i'll definitely get in contact with these guys, if i'm lucky might be able to get it under $3000 AUD. That's crazy for GT4's. Thanks so much for that!

:P

i managed to get +25 on the front and +30 on the rear

had to fit a ride height suspensinon pack and roll the arches as they rubbed like a b1tch , still stuck out some though :) just got it in for some JUN skirts and 400r arches

      Mistakes were made, my R34 Story

      The oil pressure sensor for logging, does it happen to be the one that was slowly breaking out of the oil block? If it is,I would be ignoring your logs. You had a leak at the sensor which would mean it can't read accurately. It's a small hole at the sensor, and you had a small hole just before it, meaning you could have lost significant pressure reading.   As for brakes, if it's just fluid getting old, you won't necessarily end up with air sitting in the line. Bleed a shit tonne of fluid through so you effectively replace it and go again. Oh and, pay close attention to the pressure gauge while on track!

      I don't know it is due to that. It could just be due to load on track being more than a dyno. But it would be nice to rule it out. We're talking a fraction of a second of pulling ~1 degree of timing. So it's not a lot, but I'd rather it be 0... Thicker oil isn't really a "bandaid" if it's oil that is going to run at 125C, is it? It will be thicker at 100 and thus at 125, where the 40 weight may not be as thick as one may like for that use. I already have a big pump that has been ported. They (They in this instance being the guy that built my heads) port them so they flow more at lower RPM but have a bypass spring that I believe is ~70psi. I have seen 70psi of oil pressure up top in the past, before I knew I had this leak. I have a 25 row oil cooler that takes up all the space in the driver side guard. It is interesting that GM themselves recommend 0-30 oil for their Vette applications. Unless you take it to the track where the official word is to put 20-50w oil in there, then take that back out after your track day is done and return to 0-30.

      Nice, looks great. Nice work getting the factory parts also. Never know when you'll need them.

      I take it that the knock retard is from bearings tapping a little tune? Thicker oil is a fragile bandaid. You need a much bigger oil cooler and probably the bigger pump being discussed.
