You can get wheelnuts to fit at autobarn or similar. They cost about $25 for 4 tho so its expensive. You will usually need to order in enough sets for your car too as they keep limited stock of this.

Rays wheelnuts like posted above will not fit in those wheels. You'll need the inverted head type.

Ekk I hope that's not for all the volks. I bought a set of long nuts for the rims I bought out of japan, but won't find out if they're right or not for another month till it all arrives :D

If the wheel nuts have to go inside a hole then its unlikely that anything except inverted head type nuts will fit.

My wheels are the same - Rays/Nismo LMGT3's which required these weird wheel nuts.

Kinda sucks. I get the feeling that its the same for any wheel where there are 10 holes around the center cap.

on the topic of wheel nuts, anyone know of any brands/places where I can grab a set of long bolted wheel nuts?

I've had longer studs put in, and I can get to them with a deep socket but it scratches the paint off my rims.

They will alos have to be open ended too, or long enough to cover the entire stud.

      R34 GTR Speedo Drive , sensor type ?

      It's almost certainly a reluctor generating an "AC" waveform. No, ECUs don't generally read those - they're usually set up for PWM square wave 0-5v stuff.

      Working through possible solutions of converting my mechanical speedo.    Anyone know what type of speedo sensor the factory r34 gtr getrag has ? what the output is ? I assume its not a VSS and more a voltage like earlier speedo sensors ? Can an ECU read it ?

      I can get more photos of it here soon and I plan to make a thread detailing the process. I received the car this way and it sorely needs refinishing. That is probably the most appealing photo of it. Up close it is fading, cracked, and needs to be re-glued. Depending on their condition I'm on the fence between refinishing or making a new set.  Another angle hiding the pimples and razor pumps

      Can you mount the ATTESA pump in other locations?

      According to this thread the RS4V with build plate RC40 comes with the R200 diff @ 4.083 ratio as well (mine has said RC40 denotation). We may need to check if the axle stubs are the same pattern as well. The auto subframes have longer axles. However I think yours being a later Series 2 as well, we should have the same bolt pattern for the diff stubs. Unless your upgraded rear also has upgraded axles. Either way, I would not be opposed to pulling the covers to check so I can inspect that  fancy rear core  Also I don't have HICAS. I don't believe that should change things but I hope the people here with heaps more experience than me can correct me if I'm wrong   Let me know if you want to attempt to make this work and I can get some pictures of mine from under the car.
