Prefer the stock rims, and the unpainted carbon.

I agree, nissan spent a lot of time on this car and in my opinion, every aftermarket change whether it be body styling, rims or exhaust has looked worse than standard.

It makes me appreciate the new gt-r even more when i see all these aftermarket company's trying to modify the looks and all they end up acheiving is a worse product.

I say stop trying to make the thing look prettier and start taping away at all that untouched potential under the hood. Half a bar of boost... come on.. some one stick a boost controller on one already.

The parts aren't carbon to begin with.

a $!50K+ car shouldn't have all those tacky unpainted black plastic bits all over it in the first place. Definitely looks better with a bit of paint splashed over them, but its still not pretty.

Have you seen an Audi R8, sexy car, but it looks like audi forgot to paint a whole panel on each side.

    • Hi all. So I have my GTR on the lift and have been working on it a few days and today I unpacked the frontpipe that was wrapped with heat wrap stuff, because part of it was breaking down and soaked in oil. Noticed that the pipe itself does not actually look like a Mines, despite it supposedly being a Mines. But I could not find any fronpipe online that looks exacly like his, and I don't think it is a custom one. My amateur measurement also showed the two pipes are about equal length, so maybe this is just an old version of the Mines pipe? Would appreciate insight on this by the enlightened folks. greetings from Germany
    • Yeah. If I plug the connector in and connect the vacuum lines, I assume worse case scenario is that it simply doesn't work? Yep PFC.
    • I would think that rather than attempting to perform an engine swap, with all the difficulties associated with doing so in a country where the raw materials required are harder to get hold of, I would just build the CA20 for boost, find an EFI manifold for it and either add a turbo or a supercharger. Or both. You replace one set of difficulties with a different set, but I know which would be more fun.
    • Well, a proper aftermarket ECU** SHOULD be set up to run the purge solenoid, same as the factory ECU would, so that the tank breather system continues to operate the way it is supposed to. I have no knowledge of whether the PFC (which is what I assume you mean when you say Apexi) has an output (and internal logic) to run the purge solenoid. If it does not, then given the product design intent for the PFC, which is to be a plug in replacement for the stock ECU, I would consider that a massive failing on Apexi's behalf and would be another reason to think that they were a half-arsed solution to the problem if programmable management on RBs. I would suggest that since Nistune came to market (which is a LOOOOONG time ago now) there has been no valid argument for choosing a PFC, especially if the PFC can't do things like this.   **ie, Haltach, Link, Motec, etc
    • Thanks for asking the question we were all thinking!
