Was just wondering if SA had any cheaper but I found one for the $600 mark and its here in Oz :(

Thanks Maz

From what i know the black ones are...just black...and exactly the same a silver ones. So unless you REALLY want a black 1, ur better off (cheaper) getting the silver one. And if you come to SA, hide it in the glove box :(

some really loud whirring noise in the engine, im bit clueless when it comes to engines but im beginning to think its one of the belts. Really loud when i start the engine and when it on idle.

Hopefully off to mechanics tommorow if i get time and hopin it wont cost me too much! Belts arent normally too much to replace i dont think?

Could be the bearings in the pulleys that your belts sit on...they can make a whirring noise and do ware out ;)

well, ive had a f**king awesome day so far.

didnt finish work til 7, went from there to the gym where i spent an hour being bored and tired on the treadmill before my appointment with my trainer, spent the next hour and a half getting my programme sorted, went to maccas to get a coffee afterwards, who'da thought itd take 4 attempts to get a flat white right? and then, my car wouldnt start.

awesome.

so i spent the next hour and a half waiting for the friggin raa, now i gotta go out and get some last minute birthday shopping done, might be able to squeeze in an hours sleep before i have to be back in town at 6 for a friends 20th bday dinner and then to work for an 11pm start. *sigh*

busiest night of the week and im going to be knackered...

fun stuff.

oh well, spose i better stop wasting time on here.

Why is it the more you know, the more you don't really know??Igonrance and stupidity are bliss. Or maybe they are not... :) Maybe life is way too complex. Or am I over looking something?

Simply I have no idea of what goes on anymore anywhere!?! Stop. thinking. NOW.

    • Define "Nissan big brakes". You just mean standard R34 4 pots? And...it's not even the offset you need to worry about. It's really a detail of how much clearance there is between the caliper and the back of the spoke/face, which is affected more by the design of the spoke than it is by the offset. If you think about it....take any wheel, say a 19x8 that does fit and clears the caliper. Then add or subtract an inch of wheel on the outside, without changing anything else. You have changed the offset by half an inch, but not changed the clearance situation at all. Same for if you add or subtract an inch from the inside edge. The way for you to work this out is to take a wheel off the car, grab a straight edge and a ruler or two, and start to measure the distances from the wheel mounting face on the hub to the outer face of the caliper, and the outer diameter (that faces the barrel of the wheel) of the caliper. Armed with these dimensions and any other measurement that grabs your fancy while you are there, you can then go to the seller of the wheels and do the reverse measurements from the wheel's mounting face and see if there will be clearance to the caliper. There really should be. I have 17x8 RPF1s +35 clearing the caliper face by a finger tip. Those wheels do have pretty thin spokes with some curvature.... but then so do most wheels to suit Jap cars.
    • So I’ve got a r34 sedan that I managed to get green stickered, meaning I need to go through government approved wof station for my car to be allowed back on the road for some reason my car is certed for 19x8 rims.. I need these wheels  does anyone know what offset will be fine to clear Nissan big brakes? I saw 35et for sale near me, I can’t drive the car to test fit or risk being fined ..   I searched heaps online couldn’t find anywhere..
