What size and offset are your rims on the gtst mate?

They were 18x9 +20 front and 18x10 +5 on the rear. Front and rear guards were standard all I did for the rears was roll the lip flat with the guard (not pumped at all) just to allow a tiny bit of suspension travel and that was it. Fronts actually had a 5mm spacer from memory

Off the boat from Japan. Just a peek.   TE37 Magnesium put aside for LMGT1   Not detailed for a while yet. After compliance, it should happen.   Titaniu

A few quick pics of my 33. Also a video of my new varex exhaust for anyone interested.

Its almost complete in my eyes. It is stock height, stock wheels but I like it. I feel a lot more safe from police in this form.

As soon as my mate gets back from a week away, my new cat is being put in and some gauges wired up. All it needs now I think is a bit of a tune up. Only problem I have with the car really is the return to idle, it sometimes lopes as seen in the video but fortunately doesnt stall. Strangely it is a tiny bit laggier since installing the varex. A smaller air filter was installed at the same time. Will have to see which one is causing the problem.

so gave the car a clean and had a play with the camera. the one thing i struggle with is framing a shot, so i drove around until i found a reasonably good place for photos. here are a couple of shots i took:

      Shifting questions

      By DRoc81 · Posted

      This was a huge help.  We followed the steps,  although shifting into 2nd was actually into 3rd for us,  and 1st was into 2nd ( steps 9 and 11) .  The long flash was the 4th flash.  So shift solenoid A is possibly the culprit.  Is this inside the transmission itself? Or is it accessible by just front the pan? Or is it bolted to the outside of the transmission?  Thanos for your help everyone

      Can you enlighten me on your best practice regarding these hoses? I don't wanna make the same mistake if you already got a better solution.

      I have some silicon hoses already, for example engine to watercooler. But yeah, I get the sentiment. The lower intercooler silicon hose is drippy too, despite not being very old. Does anyone except Nismo make these same lines out of rubber? Long term I think they'd be the better replacement, especially since the car won't live as hard a life anymore as in the past nor be driven as often.

      I know most issues are just age related. But for example the turbo oil drains, there is dash adapters for these and you can just make a braided teflon line for them and (probably) never have them leak again. Also not terribly expensive. Can you even get the factory hardlines from new? Or are they repairable if they break?

      I know it'd be much much easier with the tool. I hope I can find one that won't take 3 weeks to get to me an isn't a "Asian models kit" that has tons of (to me) useless adapters for a load of cash.   It's a summer project/fun car. I do wanna enjoy it, without endless downtime over and over. So yeah I would even go and buy an engine crane + stand to save myself the trouble of hard to reach or unreachable places going bad later on. Would also be a good opportunity to put on a Fluidamper, renew the mains seals and stuff like that. I have some money on the side that I can use for that, what I wouldn't want to or be able to do is let everything be done by a shop or have my engine completely rebuild right now. I intend to do most of the "doable" jobs myself. Pulling an engine can't be that hard, can it?
