thanks.

or

>>Yahoo Auctions<<

USS auctions on this link has login and how to use not very difficult but USS requires you to know a broker so you can give him link of car and he find price for you there are no prices only pictures grades and accessory list

i liked your other rims, better fitment, not so VIP and you wont have the power to spin those tyres or at least itll make it a dick load harder! you gonna run those rims on the track?

i think his plan is to use those wheels as street and show, with *probably* driftteks as track wheels.

should look f**kin tough when its ready.

booked my car in at auto perfection for 20% all round, damn good price.

nah, wont be using them on track.... 265/40 R18's are f**king expensive, And I have a feeling 12 inch wide rears will hurt clutches/gearboxes and wheel studs.

Either going to hunt yahoo for some 17's, or horribly spaced doriteks LOL. Even considering some 15/16 x 10 -26 superlights......

As for fitment..... I picked up by bolt on guards today, (like the silver R31 house car I posted on the previous page) Fitment in spades.

EDIT: did a rough test fit..... and geez they fit well. Rears are PERFECT. Need to runa 265 tyre, just to give me a tad more lip/tyre clearence. Fronts with the right camber settings are great.

Im VERY happy wth it.

And power? 250kw's should be enough. :D

And as for my other wheels? I liked them, finally had them delivered (long story), then I hated them. :cool: Didnt suit the car at all IMO.

And my new wheels..... I love them :D

Who has AWD dyno's in Adelaide? Reason is when the legnum arrives an SAFC-II will be purchased and wondering who/where it can be tuned. Those I know of:

Graham West

Turbo Tune

S&J Automotive

but surely there are others?

I heard Sahun talking to a guy we used to race with who raced a evo, and apparently he is looking at buying a 4wd dyno, so i think Shaun might be able to use it when he needs, this other guy knows his evos too btw!! Shaun has had a few evo/gsr's come in of past so maybe talk to him about it before you go and choose someone else to tune your car!!

I was going to speak to Shaun to see about getting him to tune it, but it made me think of where the 4WD dyno's are in adelaide... doesnt seem to be that many and I was curious :D

Haha! :D

I just scored 5 cartons of the Belguim beer Mae!

It pays to have family in the booze industry.

I'm gunna get plastered this weekend. Got a wedding to attend Sunday (as well as Saturday), and the ex wife will be there :)

    • Hey guys been looking everywhere to try and find the correct gtr hood latch support part number but only found the first half and when I search with that number it sends me to an r34. The first part I found was 62515. If anyone could help me with the rest then I’d really appreciate it. Or if there’s some alternative hood latch support that would work even better cause I can’t find any for sale. (Searched on upgarage, partsouq,buyee,rhdjapan) 
    • If you've only done the upper control arms on the rear, AND you have changed their length (by more than about 1mm) to set the camber you want, then you will definitely need/want to install traction arms also. Adjusting the camber arms on their own WILL introduce bump steer and make the car unpleasant to drive. Most owners have no idea that their car could behave infinitely better than what they put up with. I'm not entirely sure what the Stageas need, but I am thinking that unless you have massive front spring rates and pretty soft rear springs, you have waaaay too much rear bar. Oversteer city, in my estimation. Combined with possible excessive bump steer from maladjusted arms, that could be a recipe for nastiness. ATR43SS2 is not a highflow. It is an outright replacement turbo. It's a little bit bigger than the largest highflow profile that Tao does. Probably a solid 300rwkW turbo where the bigger highflows will be about 30-40rwkW less. Nevertheless, we're only talking about ~300 rwkW, which is well within the abilities of the stock ECu to run with a Nistune on board. I would do so without hesitation - and I will be doing so when I get my finger out and actually get the injectors and AFM installed. But, if you would prefer to drop a whole lot more money on the ECU side, then I suspect you're looking at Haltech. The Haltech fanbois here will all spout on about all the available engine protection you can have, that you can't have with the Nistune option. And they're right. But it doesn't really come for free either. You will spend more money on extra sensors and the like, plus the work to install them. If the engine was built and therefore represented a big investment to protect, then I'd say definitely do it. If you view the current (and forever into the future) shortage of replacement engines as something to prompt similar protection, then also, do it. If you see a destroyed RB25 as an opportunity to put in a Mercedes or other V12 (like I kinda do)... then your perception of the risk/reward might differ. These are good injectors. You can also get a "better" set of the same with more flow matching, for more $$. 1000cc is where you will want to be. You will need an R35 AFM and adapter tube if you want to stay with Nistuned stock ECU. Otherwise, if going Haltech, you can ignore. As for intercooler. Just about anything will do. You're only talking about ~300rwkW. Just put a big core in there. Be aware that return flows do add significant pressure drop and will cost power and will make the turbo work harder to achieve the same goals. If you can manage a proper crossflow, do it. I'm keeping my very good return flow because I'm only expecting to be in the ~250rwkW range, and will live with whatever outcome I get.
    • I have a heap that i have collected if you want some authentic ones still. Pm me if your interested!
