I don't like them. Would suit a Hummer or the like, but not a Skyline. Soon as I come off my P's I'm grabbing a Silver R33 turbo, whacking a nice kit on it, with a GTR wing and some nice 18" (maybe 19") Enkei rims. Nice and simple, gives the whole car a better look in my opinion, and doesn't just draw your eyes to the wheels.

:P :):yes:

:)

Wheels make or break a car.

And...

Dont buy wheels to fit your car. Make the car fit the wheels.

Did some more work on my guards today. Almost finished, then to be painted. And to decide on a colour LOL

Wow, another 2 pages since I last saw this thread. haha.

Since this is an opinion thread, I reckon R31 drift pig has got the best fitment/wheels posted.

haha definately, ill throw this up but im at a disadvantage as i dont have flares like an R31.

I dont have flares either. They're standard, all metal guards, bashed with a 20 pound hammer and a guard roller. A lot of work went into them. 4 dor sedans cant use the bolt on flares off of coupes.

Guards like mine are possible on your car too.

You also have a huge adavntage having 5 stud, so better access to good wheels, and rear camber adjustment. I have 4 stud and live rear end, so my offsets/widths/guards had to be worked out to the mm.

haha yeh, stock flares.

yeh in that image i was at the limit, running a 225 tyre there, i chucked on a 235 and it started scraping. need to chuck some minor flares on and straighten up the camber.

Id put a 235 tyre on, wind in the camber to 1 - 1.5 deg,a nd roll/flare the rear to suit. A nice rounded flare like you see on S13's etc would look tuff as, especially if you keep running no kit, and just dump it on the deck. Just like this one...

And dont be a homo, keep your 33 gtr wheels silver. Look great against gunmetal paint, but keep the popo off your back because they look factory.

nah, i chose suspension integrity lol

dropping ur car to the floor is so try hard, biggest rice mod i can think of.

oh and the GTR rims im getting a free powdercoat, not gonna pass up the op for a free powdercoat.

Ok the reason I said about the poser drug dealers... Please explain to me how a 21 year old (as a lot of the people that enter their cars into autoghey are) can afford to mod their cars to THAT level?

Rich parents? sure I'll be willing to bet money a lot of them use their parents money. But in all honesty you can't tell me there isn't a flood of drug money financing those cars...

And I'm not talking about a stocko civic with dinnerplate chromies I'm talking about full leather interior, chromed/polished everything, huge turbo kits, airbrushed everything...

Also it might be your car or his car w/e... but you asked and also, some guys like to have sex with other guys... some people like the band Jet... some people think that dressing like tupac is cool. Is it? No, it's not. It might be your car but if you're doing it wrong, don't have a cry when someone tells you.

No offence man, but you seem very norrow minded. Heard of loans? Some people take these out to finance their cars.

You have 13 posts up and a few of these posts are wasted on flaming people. Relax man, find something positive to say about something within your first 20 posts.

Just saying... :laugh:

Can't see too many banks giving your average 21 year old a 50 thousand dollar loan to paint a car and stick a big stereo in it... but that's just me. Obviously not everyone with a hugely modded car is a druggie but as I've said, you can't tell me that there's not a large amount of suspect money financing a lot of autosalon/etc cars.

    • I haven’t taken them out of the cases yet    inside the box is this packaging which is pretty much like a massive blister pack 
    • Purchased a NC MX5 a while ago Basic suspension mods done, BC coils and Whiteline sway bars  New DBA calipers, discs and pads Added some 17 x 8 Konig Decagrams with 215/45 17 PS5's Added some typical NA bolt on's, i.e. full exhaust and intake  Added 0.5ltrs with a MZR2.5 swap, nice bump in torques  Found a detachable hard top which is locked in for a colour match with my local paint shop in Feb 25, this also includes some PDR as it has received a few love taps from parking in the local shops when in the hands of my Minister for War and Finances, me, I park nowhere near other cars and typically park on the street The little thing is awesome, I drive it everywhere, it handles like a dream whether I'm up it or just cruising  But now,  because I'm a idiot, I keep looking at turbo kits....... did I mention I'm a idiot Why is dose so appealing  All of the NA 2.5 glory, well.......until sometime in 2025 anyway....🤪  
    • I would not be surprised if you are the only person on earth that has the interest/desire to do that lol.  The Haltech base map is a really good starting point, the car will fire easily and drive very well, even on mild boost levels. To me, following your advice sounds like some sort of ancient Chinese water torcher lol (this is not an insult Josh, never change <3)
    • Those car show concepts from the 2000's and 2010's like the Floria and IDx were brilliant and should've gone ahead, at least one of them. But neither Honda nor Nissan are thinking about affordable performance any more, which is truly sad.  Even if Toyota's liquid hydrogen ICE development reaches the point where it's commercially viable and the infrastructure to support it, Honda/Nissan would have to wait until Toyota allow fee access to their patents to offer it with any smaller performance models they released to take advantage of it.  
    • A sporty manual RWD coupe with a IL4 Honda engine would only be a good thing I assume we won't see anything released for a few years though, unless informal talks and designs have been going on for a few years,  and due to the current, and future, emmisions and safety requirements, I assume anything "sporty" they would do would be at least some hybrid thingie And hopefully anything they are thinking of has nice lines, without lots of plastic and fake bits hanging off it like that horrendous FK8 that looked like it was designed by a 13 year old The other issue of course in the current market is cost, currently the type R is around $70k, a twin is around $50k Meh, I'm old and grumpy and would rather buy a older model car and waste my coin on that than buying anything currently available new
