Hey all! I just bought these.....I thought they would look ok but now that they are on the car, i F*kn love them, especially going from the stockies. Pics dont do them too much justice...will get better ones as soon as the next sunny day rocks up here in tassie....could be a wile :(

[Edit]: Btw they are 17x8s on the front and 17x9s on the rear. Thinking about painting my calipers. What colour should i go??? The norm red or should i go white or something??

Very nice!!

I love em.

I reckon go red/blue on calipers if you want em to stand out but I would go black with 'nissan' white.

The black will just make them look clean where as I don't reckon stock brakes are big enough to be bright.

I love black rims, almost all of my cars have had black rims.... and they look great...

a good early morning or late afternoon photography session will really bring them up lookin good... try a shot from down low, really makes the rims the focus of the shot... with the sun behind you...

I'm not a fan of the blue or red nuts though, all black I'd even be tempted to paint the centre cap...

then some black racing graphics......... yeah I know...

Thanks for the replies!!! Hmm, yeah, i wouldnt go gold calipers simply coz itd look like i was trying to look like brembos. Red mayb, but yeah, black with white nissan would prob look sexy!!! Ill get some pics up tonight of sunset and see how we go!! WET-25T, i was thinking about it, but originally, i was just gunna get these rims as "In between" wheels (i got them for $600 second hand off a mate), but i dont know now, i think ill keep them on there for good. Also, i was contemplating pilishing the outer edge of these ones, but thought that it'd prob look gay and make the rims look smaller, as they are only 17"s. Any other suggestions on calipers??? Leaning towards black with white nissan atm....

    • See my post here If you put the Haltech in, you won't have to worry about any of that. And, in case you're worrying about my lack of credentials in doing your exact swap, I put a Neo in an R32. There has never been a stock boost solenoid near my car and the Neo's ECU has never cared. Nor should it, because it is electronically impossible for it to care.
    • That's 100% wrong. Did you wire in the boost sensor? If you did not, then that is 101% your answer. Neo ECUs do suck a bit.
    • Hello, I'm trying to make this thread basically the thread with all the answers to common questions regarding specifically the RB20 DE NEO + T engine, that comes in the R34. Answers will and only should be provided by those who have done this conversion or actually have some relevant real life experience please. Please feel free to ask questions in the comments if you have any so other members can answer. I feel like this thread is really needed, especially with more Americans buying (unknowingly going to regret it too) rb20 neo r34s. My first question being - What do you guys use for tuning? I have purchased a haltech elite 2500 Plug and play kit for the rb25det NEO because the ecu plug is the same, but I am unsure if any of the pins would need to be repined to match. Second question that I see asked very often - After this conversion, did you install the boost solenoid/ actuator? I see many people doing a + T setup on their rb20 NEOs while running stock RB25DET NEO ECUs with no tune. I am wondering how they are going about doing that and consistently abusing the car because many of these people have had these untuned setups running for a very long time. That was my original plan, but my engine cuts out at 5 psi of boost using the stock ecu with no tune and no boost solenoid/actuator.
    • interesting. ive read and heard otherwise over the past year. ive been doing this +t conversion on a rb20 neo using all oem rb25det neo parts including the ECU, and im having engine cut out issues when I hit around 5 psi of boost. Everywhere/everyone ive asked has told me its because I never wired in a boost solenoid/actuator to the ecu, so the ecu isn't getting the right signal once it hits 5 psi of boost, causing the engine to get shut off.
