Thanks guys!

No NOS for me. Lowered suspension is in the pipeworks but dont want to lose the nice ride comfort, researching my options.

Yes Powder Coated, thats why the centre caps are missing, they are plastic and would have melted. I may spray them or just leave as-is. Still haven't decided fully on whether to leave it or put them on.

Is it American? Beats me, I have liked white wheels for a very looooooong time. I like the contrast against black, but wanted to see what other people think too!

he he

Thanks Pushead - I got it done for free, would you believe?

A once off opportunity though - I dont think I can even get any others done...even at a cost...

You generally need to clean your wheels thoroughly and sand them back a bit - or have them sandblasted / paint stripped. The cleaner and more prepared the better they will turn out.

I cleaned mine with degreaser and gave them a quick sanding - they were already in pretty good nick though!

hey dale do u know if u can get them powder coated in the R34 Series 2 colour?? Cos that colour looks awesome bcos it's really similar to the R34 GTR rims... well i think for the Series II R34 rims look better....

oh yeah... piccies :P

    • Hope your all having a mean Xmas! If anyone happens to know any trick to using the insanely complex climate control system, I cannot get it to not be on dual zone no matter how many times I deselect it (will say it's not but both vents blow different temps). Also one side is always hot, one always cold 🤷
    • I'd be looking at the mentioned EFR kit, room to turn it up if decide on e85 (which we know you will) and be super responsive and fun on the street. OR https://v8roadsters.com/product-category/engine-conversions/engine-conversion-lsx/engine-conversion-lsx-nc/?srsltid=AfmBOorrJa2S76JR5ekXprxBOtU44a1UProbe64YaiVi9zTVp1Lj814w And add whooshy noise for extra fun C5 corvette prices are coming down locally here and a mate has a manual one and is a heap of fun on the street and track.
    • I have an Elite 2500, honestly most of this has been a lot of smaller tasks chasing little details and a whole lot of life getting in the way of bigger projects. I don't mind too much looking at a spectrograph vs having audio knock ears. 
    • Nah nah nah nah. Don't do it. It's not all about the full throttle power delivery. The main "street fun" and drivability gains from smaller rear (in this case) is how you will have boost available from a low rpm when yo just roll onto the throttle. Think jinking in and out of traffic, coming out of roundabouts, etc etc, where you just want to roll onto the throttle a little and have the spooly noise from ~2000rpm and a swell of torque. More of what you've already achieved by going to 2.5. And then, towards the tail end of 2025 you can pull the turbo 4 out and put in a V8 like we originally suggested. :P
