  1. beast mode! 1mil credits for your efforts sir. BTW I still have a G29/290 or whatever the updated version of the wheel is sitting in the corner, too lazy to set it up. BUT, the wheel does give you way more precise control, and after a couple of hours on it, your lap times will drop.
  2. I've always been partial towards the multispoke (10? 11? spokes) white wheels on the Gibson HR31s. I reckon the boxy R31 design and the 17" multispoke (BRAID?) work well... Also influenced by 90's BTCC era big (19") wheels. Also hard to beat TE37 or Enkei RPF01 6 spoke wheels. P.S. I was never a fan of "3-piece" wheels with the bolts, I preferred the monoblock designs... until I got my LMGT1s haha.
  3. Maxspeedingrods, yikes, please be careful and get them removed from your car ASAP.
  4. Replace calipers, or replace wheels. You can try to figure it out, or just upgrade the calipers to slimline ones if you're dead set on relatively weak BNR32 wheel (spec wise, 16x8 ain't that flashy).
  5. Honestly not that great, you have to mod the shit out of them. They (R34 GT-Rs) were good value when they were selling for 45-65k AUD but now there's no point, better off spending half on a modern performance car (which will chop the GT-R in every metric except maybe internet points).
  6. No one has a vernier caliper to measure the diameters of that pipe and where it should sit in?
  7. nice one, sometimes it's the simple things (plumb back is better anyway)
  8. C'mon Prank, first proper lap out I did 1:53 on cataluyna, with PS4 controller hehe
  9. Look around for your local car interior trimmer?
  10. Definitely shop around to get a custom exhaust made up. Those prices seem ridiculous. If you're dead set on a JDM item, might be worth asking Jesse Streeter (or similar) to bring in a Japanese cat back.
  11. I would take the cluster apart and re-flow the solder joints, it's like 20+ years old now, so might as well refresh it.
  12. IMO the "straight pipe" approach sounds crap. I'd (and have) go down the "two fat mufflers with mandrel bent custom exhaust" route. Not only would it give a nice note, it should be below 92dB or whatever the legal limit is.
  13. I've never looked into it, but I bet you 1 cc of 98RON petrol that the spray nozzles are the same as 90's era Nissans, e.g. Maxima, X-trail etc. Why would Nissan use specially made nozzles when they can use the one part across multiple cars. If you can, I would measure the R33 nozzles, then go to the nearest wreckers and look for/size up similar nozzles.
  14. The people living across the road from me (roughly 30m away) have various cars with loud exhausts. It's never fun whenever one of those cars fires up, especially at 6am. 2 fat mufflers all the way!
  15. Hertz are a good (euro?) brand, they specify high impedance and frequency response for factory setups. Downside is higher cost. If you can't run an amp and have to rely on factory amp, chances are Herts are a good but expensive buy. But like I said above, having done 2 R32 steroes, it's much easier to run your own cables + amp + speakers, your head unit should only require the battery +12V and ignition +12V. You can run earths/grounds and all the other wires yourself.
  16. probably make your own
  17. It happens. The post dates aren't as obvious, but doesn't hurt to bump an old thread if it's relevant to your issue.
  18. A dude from Texas brought his car here to Australia? Amazing.
  19. I would find the +12V (battery) and +12V (Ignition), the rest you should run yourself. new head unit + 4ch amp + speakers = way easier than trying to use the shitty factory wiring.
  20. You need to provide more information, like what ECU, injectors, fuel pump etc. you have. those make a difference when you're converting from N/A to turbo
  21. Weird thing I found on my GT-R, unplug the smaller plug on the HICAS computer, you retain the "variable steering" (below 70 km/h you get lighter steering/more assist), but it stops the stupid computer from killing you (a.k.a. the HICAS kick).
  22. Do you have any pictures? Love to see chunky tyres on our cars. Guards were made for 300mm slicks so let's see them chonky bois!
