Bel my ex was salesrep and we worked together .... so half ur theory is proven .... but still i can understand the bullshit they go thru after all the tyrekicking dreamers i had look at my ZX .... after a while u get sooo sick of it. Besides they arent there to be nice - they are there to make money like the rest of us.

Oi Liz wanna go drifting in Marks drift pig :) ...... invitations there gurl haha :)

haha they are so expensive for a piece of rubber ..... mine werent tightened enough and they squeeled for ages - u could here my car starting from a block away!!

hehe i did a bit of a drift round a corner today .... well the back end was sliding out slightly ..... think the guy in the car beside me was a bit shocked - specially when my front end starts to face his side door haha ..... that was fun :)

yeah true - but i dont know anyone that can be happy to see people 24/7 ......

hehe it was actually me that used to go angry at the salesreps .... they were constantly feeling my wrath ...... they are such idiots sometimes! they try to bend the rules for a sale and therefore made my life very difficult!

My car has a better power to weight cos I dropped an rb25det into an r32 which weighs much less (and its been slightly weight reduced-weighs about 1240kg now). Also your diff gear ratios are different, r32's have 4.3:1, =Quicker acceleration. Theres heaps you can do (without increaasing power) to make your car heaps quicker.

yeah i have lost it quite a few times in the ZX .... im more careful in the Skyline ..... cos i bent something in the ZX .... castor rods or something like that from losing it into a ditch ..... and it doesnt handle as well because of it.

haha Liz sounds like when i just had my R33 and talking to Gavin at work and he goes lift the bonnet cos i could do some cheapo things to make it faster for ya ..... then he discovered the bleed valve ..... didnt even know i had one when i bought it :)

    • 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.
