  1. Nice price, might chase him once i start lookin Not sure might see. Could slap on some semi's on them once the tyres wear out and use them as a track rim.
  2. http://www.jdmconcept.com.au/index.php?option=com_jdm&p=detail&cid=21 XD9 D18908100 MHG PCD 5-114.3 [MHG] [F] 18x9.0 +30 [R] 18x10.0 +38 In stock now [sydney] $2,120.00 Needs more White
  3. 18x9 +30 (as photo) for fronts 18x10 +38 for rears (as previous photos) Looks like best match for a manageable front with minimal scrubbing and flushness on the rears
  4. 18x9 +30 18x10 +38 would give extra 5mm poke on the rear 17x9.5 +17 would give extra 19mm poke on the front
  5. haha sorry meant $1000 for a pair of the 18x10's. He selling a set for $2000 hence the stuff up
  6. 10inch has epic dish and the +38 makes it sit flush. 9+17 would be mexican without serious guard work
  7. 18x10 +38 http://nissansilvia.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=483129&st=0&p=6145147&hl=work%20xd9&fromsearch=1entry6145147 17x9.5 +17 http://nissansilvia.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=484801&st=0&p=6158109&hl=work%20xd9&fromsearch=1entry6158109
  8. nah spacers not required. Thats how it sits with 10inch +38. Ive seen a pair of 17x9.5 +17 for $1300 and a pair of 18x10 +38 for $1000 $2300 all up from two sellers. Have seen a set go recently for $2000. Prob cheaper to import from Japland too edit: just saw thats a set for $1300. Bronze though
  9. 17x9.5 +17 18x10 +38 Work XD9's yes/no? Keep an eye out for any for sale plox
  10. Thanks for the comments guys. Was planning on getting some second-hand semis to go on the tyres. Nothing hardcore, just something to start on. Im afraid the 17x9 +30's will probably scrub quite bad on the fronts with the sydneykid suspension setup. Its quite soft to the point I had scrubbing issues on 17x8's +30 w/ 235/45 road tyres. Would need to raise the car quite high if the recommendation is 235 semi's on the 17x9's Also fair to say that 235/45's are a common second hand semi size? Probably easier to find second hand sets over the r32 gtr sizes... Cheers
  11. 70kw atw for a rb20det? wtf is wrong with it. They make at least 130kw atw bog stock. An exhaust and intercooler gets you to about 160kw O_o The dyno sheet says r32 GTS (minus the -t for turbo) and the graphs dont appear to look correct for a turbo car?
  12. Have 9 tyres/rims stacked ontop of each other, decided to pull down the wall of rims. Pulled off 5 rims and was confronted by a massive possum sleeping in between the rims. No idea how he managed to squeeze through each spoke of the rims to get down so far in the column of rims haha Ive jabbed him with a stick but he aint waking up. Will wait for him to crawl out before i dismantle his house
  13. Hey, Interested in doing more track work with my r32 GTST. (200kw atw~) Would like to hear what is the best wheel/tyre setup for track work. Options I can think of for rims: - r32 GTST rims - 16x6.5 - r32 GTR rims - 16x8 - r33 GTR rims - 17x9 - Second hand aftermarket jap brand rims under $800~ Which rims would be best choice for light trackwork (in terms of cost)? Also, what would be best size semi-slicks for the best choice? Thanks for the help
  14. haha wtf. What is that photoshop meant to be?
  15. I herd you leik SLS AMG parked on Toorak road in No standing zone. Parking Fine and Red P-Plates O_o Are you positively annoyed friend?

    very nice! Reminds me of those oldschool DECA videos
  17. I have 3rd party insurance. Person reversed into my guard. Person had full comp RACV Got quote from Micolour. Person called saying their insurance wants to know if price to repair is less than insurance claim excess. I said no, proceed with claim. Dropped car off at Micolour. He did all the calling, assessement etc Got cheque in mail from RACV, cashed it and handed in to Micolour + extra for front end spray If yours is a write off, no panel beater is going to do the chasing for you, so you would have to do that yourself My friends car was written off. He kept the wreck, paid a valuator to come and value his car (cost him $300). Sent a letter to the person at fault demanding valuation amount + cost of valuators time. He would then pass that onto his insurance i believe.
  18. gg today for me. Was on left lane behind a car. All of a sudden a van on the right lane zoned out to what was in front of him. Traffic stopped in the right lane and when he realised he swerved onto the left lane. The car on the left lane next him quickly swerved to his left onto the side of the road. This all happened when it was pouring in rain. I was behind the left car when all this happened. Scary bit is that I was planning on overtaking the car in front of me at the previous lights. May have ended up with a van in the side of me O_o
  19. cheers but it dont fit
  20. interesting, although you can feel the thud through the body of the car and its always at a constant rate. Will suss it out. haha yeah i went off backwards on turn 1 at Sandown over the ripple strip Will swap wheels over and then drive it on a hoist Cheers
  21. haha nice one Mohsen. Some troll hoarding all the sideskirts cheers for the info. Unfortunately I did have a pair of slightly damaged ones and it wasnt worth the repair
  22. both rear tyres have been replaced and sound still there. Unless i flat spotted the fronts, however dont get any steering wheel shake/wobble... Will swap to stockies and see what happens! cheers
  23. Hello all, During a trackday training day i went backwards over a ripple strip and heard a massive bang underneath the car. Assumed I smashed the dump pipe on the ripple strip. Turned back around and kept on driving as normal. Everything seemed to be fine till the end of the day. When driving back i noticed a constant thud noise coming from the car when Im over 80km/h. It sounds like a flat spot or buckled rim; *thud* *thud* *thud*. From 80kmh+ the sound is quite noticeable. Clutch in; Sound still there Clutch in, neutral, clutch out, rolling at speeds above 80km/h sound still present. This would mean its related to suspension, diff, tyres, rims, tailshaft? Wheels have been balanced and aligned. Rims have been checked for any buckling and seem fine. The kicker is that the thud sound comes and goes! If i drive up to the city, the thud noise is quite loud. However, after a couple of hours and driving back the sound is completely gone! Its hard to replicate it to any mechanic as it seems to come and go and Im not sure why Any help would be greatly appreciated. Might chuck on a set of stockies for a week and see if i can still hear/feel it. That would eliminate tyres/rims as being the problem. Thanks all...
  24. why is it so fkn hard to find r32 type-m sideskirts?? There must be some massive pile of them somewhere as none are ever up for sale.
