yeah i used to know them too - was going to get them to do it while they were at new town one day but i no longer work there so thats no much good!

been like that for 6 months now - so no it aint getting any worse :mad:

yeah. that'd be good.

Car is in a million pieces, but it looks shithot. combination of factory silver paint, muffler-dragging suspension and buddyclub P1s make for a surprisingly sexy combination.

May need to address a few minor panel issues and the front fac-option spoiler too. will be a good excuse though.

hopefully by then the full stereo transplant will be complete too.

paul,

I am a **** for cheesy rice culture.

First and foremost I think mine is probably a cruiser. it will be made to go fast in time, but will incur the wrath of my penchance for extremely loud music.

In the immediate future its more likely to be a fast ricer tho - if you had to put a label on it.

engine work (once everything goes back in)

turbs back exhaust, HKS pod, HKS AFR, cold air box to come in the VERY near future (maybe as soon as next weekend, depending on my saturday night).

other: tein coilovers on each corner (with associated minor damage to the front quarter panels from rubbing associated with going from 215/35s to 245/45s!), and my nice rims.

coming: bov, boost guage and bleeder of some descritption likely to follow soon.

skyzerr33, have you checked out the boots jay95 is selling? Don't know how they compare to pauls ($15 for Pauls may be better value), but the leather Jay uses is good stuff. Hell of a lot better than the factory vinyl stuff. Lets compare boots at the next cruise :mad:

Oh yeah, my peeling dash pissed me right off, so I sat down and painted it over the holidays. Its not rice, I swear!

    • That is a lovely Volvo, just saying. Yes I should have got an 260RS when they were cheap. I do regret now.
    • ^ lots of good points made above. The thing is, "aggressive" or "flush" fitment is relative depending on how much you have been influenced by social media. My starting point is always "look at the Nismo RWD specs". That is where you should start, then start measuring as GTSBoy as sort of mentioned, because every car will be slightly different. My 8.5"+35/9.5+38 will not be "flush" enough for you because you want more "pumped" look, which is why you measure. Tyre sizes and brand/models also make a difference. Some tyres are more chunky/square, some are more rounded. That means you could get away with more aggressive offsets without rubbing. But then it also depends on your ride height. Also depends on how much your car copped damage before being shipped from Japan. So it goes back to measuring your car yourself and determining what can work. Those Nismo specs are used bacause it's a safe spec for standard car (suspension. body) with chunky tyres. But then I put 265/35 wide tyres on R34 GT-R wheels, and currently run 285/30 tyres on 18x10 wheels.
    • Sounds pretty awesome. I recommend creating a new build thread and posting all your goodness in there.
    • +1 for Jesse Streeter. Over the years I have got a bunch of stuff from him (usually wheels, but other parts like aftermarket braces and coolers). He was very good with shipping things to Australia. He may be able to send to other countries.
