But your post still prompted me to think,...

it must be a bit difficult to find what rims would suit Silica Breath...

I'm guessing that gold, titanium, chrome, white or even black rims might not suit that coloured car?

Perhaps just matt silver - hmmm, maybe bronze? Thoughts?

i'd just go silver wheels. anything else would look weird.

i know it's off topic but here's a Silica Breath C10 to illustrate the perfectness of silver wheels on silica breathe

again, sorry for non-34 post

Well silica would be derived from sand, so I can see that connection; the breath is probably just Japlish? Better than "Colour giving the super happy special deluxe feeling"?

:rofl:

From memory, it's also know as Champagne Gold.

Haha... I like it though, if I had an M-spec I'd definitely like it in that colour.

Reminds me a bit of the Diablo 6.0 VT colour "Oro Elios" which was a special "final edition" colour, kind of like the M-spec is to the R34.

Weirdly, the colour also kind of reminds me of the old Nokia 8850 Gold, which used to be the phone-to-have, back in the day...

Does anyone know why KSR removed the vented bonnet?

For a second there I thought you thought that this car is KSR... Whoops

If this is yours Drew, I've always liked the look of your car; so clean and tasteful mate. :thumbsup:

hey matt, yep its mine. Thank you, thats the same thing everyone who comments on the car says, its clean.

He painted the carbon bits white, its still there lol, just not visible from the photo

Ah ok, I liked it with the carbon bits unpainted.. almost made me want to replace my bonnet with that style just to be able to do it - leave the vents unpainted lol

Either way its still an amazing looking car.

Nothing compared to some of the beasts posted earlier but heres my baby :)

R34 GTR's look tough as stock. I would just lower it slightly and chuck some spacers on, say, 20mm and you got a tough looking guy already.

    • Haha thanks everyone, I'll take everyone's suggestions into consideration. If I do eventually choose a car ill post it here update on the mods I do.
    • I found the ingredients at larger amounts from a Coffee Shop. 1kg Citric Acid for €8.50 500g Baking Soda for €2.50 I tried it out tonight distilled water (I got from my ACs) and dish soap. It does get bubbly with dish soap. In just two hours the hanger has improved significantly and rubbing against any remaining rust seems to flake it off. I'm going to leave it a little bit longer and see how it goes. I have read that someone even used this solution in an ultrasonic cleaner to clean a seized water pump which brought it back to life.
    • If you like more modern stuff than the R series, you should check out a V37 400R, they are pretty mod friendly
    • Haha luckily we don't have emissions, inspections, or any laws against power adders here. They only thing they somewhat keep an eye out for are ridiculously loud exhausts. 
    • Just wanted to pop in an update on my setup. The CD swap has been great, I love the mazworks housing for the overall simplicity. I ended up sealing my trans tunnel with a thin sheet of aluminum reused some of the holes on the trans tunnel, and laid some window sealing EPS foam around the edges. Works great, really quieted things down and sealed up the car.  As for the power comment. Right now I am also running about 650whp. with the way the bell housing is attached to the face of the transmission I have zero doubts it would be fine, mainly because the input shaft and main shaft bearings are seated into the bell housing adapter. This means the load is NOT on the bolts to maintain the power, rather into he casing of the bell housing; Yes the bolts are doing some work there, but with both shafts locked in zero worries.  End of the day, the Mazworks solution is the easiest and safest. no need to take your trans to a shop to get milled perfectly, it fits with minimal clearancing, and you can use all your existing clutch and flywheel.  Driving wise the CD has been great compared to the big box, I'll probably swap my final drive at some point. The serial 9 shifter is gooooood, my only qualm is how tight it is, it takes a fair bit to get use to, 5th and 6th are a bit eh/hard to find at times, but maybe I need re-adjusting, and I think my clutch master is very tired and needs a rebuild.
