Running CC-X ceramics on stock GTR32 (non brembo) rotors and calipers. Destroyed them at Sandown on a 35 degree day. Bitey though...

Coupe this - that's not how profiles work Jive - that's the width... I don't get what either of you are talking about. profile is a percentage of the tyre witdh: eg. 225/50/16 will give a sidewall height of 50% of 225 = 112.5mm and if (for arguments sake) a tyre size is: 385/35/18, the sidewall height is 35% of 385 = 135.75mm Therefore, "low profile" does not always equal skinny side walls. Example: stock skyline R33 gtst tyre size is 205/50/16 (by memory) therefore total rolling diameter is: 16" ----> 406.4mm add sidewalls (two sidewalls) = 2 x 205 x 50% = 205mm equals 611.4mm. if then you go to an 18" wheel, you will have to drop the profile to match the rolling diameter, working backwards say we want to fit a 235 width tyre: 18" ----> 457.2mm therefore the sidewalls must be 611.4 - 457.2 = 154.2 therefore each sidewall is 77.1mm as 77.1mm is a percentage of the width, the profile is 77.1/(tyre width) profile = 77.1/235 = 32.81% However, as tyre profiles are in 5% increments, you must use a 35 profile. As a 235 doesn't come widely in a 35, the fitment is a 40 profile.

Nice love it

I'm still confused as he's talking about an R33 computer? R33 and R34 PFCs are not interchangable AFAIK

dude sounds like snail too small, cooler too big. what is it - 600x300x76? Consider that a factory GTR runs a similar size cooler to this and it is happy up to 300rwkW

Yep Lucien, like that, but more.... well, less ugly

Love the tags, but you've spelt "CONTRIBUTOR" incorrectly - it reads "CONTRIBUTER"

You've got some SHS "Super Happy Sliders" plates too

you can slap one in my 32 then!

someonestolecc - the bulbs are xenon specific designation; they're D2S globes. Mark - I'm going to need pics mine's still a fair way off gives me more time to play with other stuff though. I'll give a final run down of time / cost when I'm done. They're going to be expensive though - partial summary HID projectors - $250 headlights (if you get another pair) - $250 Ballasts / globes - $300 various bits for wiring harness - $80 various bits from bunnings (paint, dremel stuff, silicone etc) - $120 Is it worth it? probably not. Is it trick? I think so. kezza... oh no! I've done a step by step for opening them below: 1. preheat oven (mine's fan force) to 180C. NB - leave the tray that you're going to bake the headlight on OUT OF THE OVEN. Bakey goodness: 2. SWITCH THE OVEN OFF! Place headlight and tray into oven for ~10mins... will vary at bit between 8 and 12 mins. 3. Pull the headlight out of the oven (wear gloves if you're a sissy like me). Get a screwdriver (not a good one because goop will stick and is a bitch to get off) and pry off one corner between the glass and the housing. If it's sufficiently hot it, once you get one edge apart it will be simply a matter of grabbing the two halves and pulling! voila! open headlight So there it is complete with girlies on the newspaper will probably not get time to work on this for a few weeks, but will keep updating this thread Are we bored yet?

Andrew - Talk to Trevor at Brighton Nissan. Tell him Marcus sent you. The front lip is $400 retail I think - he should be able to do a bit better. Cheers PS and for that matter they actually carry alot of import stuff... I get all my bits for the 32R from him (if buying new that is)

All power FC units are full replacement computers. Just unplug std computer... plug in PFC. geddit?

I like chicken. just wanted to see my little tag

I thought YLWGTR2's motor is on the workshop floor....?
