Yeh thanks guys :laugh:

that was my cheap rim upgrade. heh

currently in the process of saving for some real wheels. a set of white or black centred Meisters or Professors with some chrome dish would be nice :laugh: so expensive though :happy:

Well given the above, i think you are an appropriate person to ask the following:

The Wheels I want no longer come in the finish i want, instead only flat silver. I was thinking of buying the flat silver ones and getting them painted or powder coated. But i really dont want it to look bad. When your are spending over $2k on something you want it to look good. Do you think painted wheels are likely to chip or deteriorate??

Umm, Well mine were sprayed with a 20 dollar spray can :happy:

I'm not sure how much it costs to get wheels powder coated. But i was under the impression it was about 50 bucks a wheel... I wasn't willing to spend 200 dollars on my stockies.. Where as if i had 2 thousand dollar wheels. theres no way i would want to wreck them with a 20 dollar spray can.. I would defiantely get them powder coated. I have a mate with white powder coated wheels and they look awesome.

But that said, mine havent chipped or anything yet. Pretty surprised at how nice the finish ended up actually.

    • Only needed to pull out the seats, center console and gear shifter surround, took a weekend and a fair few beers. You get to look forward to finding all sorts of weird shit under the seats and carpet, I pulled out a Chinese dudes passport from 2003, 220 yen and a condom wrapper 😆
    • Well, turns out not a lot happened from back then to now, between life again, and working on 3 separate other cars (only one of which was mine, and will now be departing the household soon).   So I decided with the whole "don't go outside, it's a cyclone!" Turning in to being not a whole lot, I ventured down to the garage, found a couple of water leaks in the shed (the main one I've already fixed), and then ended up "stuck" as it started pouring rain, and I didn't want to walk back inside in the pouring rain. This meant I ended up taking a look at the Skyline, and trying to work out what past Matt had been upto. I retraced a few things out from scratch, added the rest of the power feeds in that I needed for the indicators, and headlights. Double checked I'd wired a few things up correctly (and worked out how I wired a few things to begin with), updated my sparse notes. Added one of the ground points. Oh, and got really really dusty, as the car is quite dirty. Wrote up quickly what should be left for me to do with the wiring too. Adding the below photos more for my records than anything else. I need to make myself a proper book for the car that details everything, and how I've done it, but for now, this is my records... The third image is my most important one for me, and I need to draw it out into a proper schematic eventually. The last photo is my re-written list, I'd have put it on the white board, except I had to take the white board down to fix one of the water leaks.
    • Can try Maxima. Or random Infiniti models from the same era. Good luck with your hunt, let us know what you find!
