Yep, thats what I meant. Not that you can go off what the R35 has....

So basically all GTS-T owners would go off GTR specs as they're going to allow you to run the largest wheels

As for fords, EF-EL would go off EF-EL XR's, AU off AU (series 1, 2 and 3) XR's and so on

If you are an R32 owner you'd go off the V-Spec not the GTR as the wheels are the largest in the 32 series

It is a road worthy requirement to have a tyre placard on your car and they will go off whats on the tyre placard, that said though, i got defected on friday night and he had a good look at my tyres and then was going through a book for a while so i would'nt mind betting that they have a manual full of cars and what size wheels they came with from factory and what they are allowed to have.

your quite right worped but youll realize most of these so called "books" only explain what the car came with from factory, regardless of what the car can legally have....its quite sad really.......

Apparently you can buy replacement tyre placards of the internet, ar just get one made by a vinyl shop and have the sizes changed to your preference :thumbsup:

I have thought about that my self, its just a basic white sticker with black writing, maybe they have already thought of that though (especially the ones that dont have one at all) and thats why they have the book with all the sizes in it.

That document is a good read though, answers my question about adjustable coil overs, does not seem to be anything in there that would suggest that they are illegal.

      Questions on potential new purchase

      By latino_R35 · Posted

      Hey all, not sure how active SAU is anymore but will ask away anyways. Just wanted to get some experience on the 2008 model GTR CBA model.  I've hit that age in my life (43) where I'm like fk it time to get my dream (midlife crisis) car. Looking at importing one in and seeing if these can be reliable if the main flaws are fixed up. Plan is to keep money aside to do the following straight off the bat to future proof it: * install a stage 1 rebuilt trans with all new bits and pieces.  * install a new Bellhousing from the later model GTRs. Or potentially an upgraded stronger version like MAD or ATR. Besides the above two things and typical maintenance items anything else you'd recommend doing.   Been speaking to a few people and the engine on these are very reliable apparently. But keen on the view of the community here. Hoping to find a nice grade 4.5 with low mileage in Grey. I'd go black but swirls too easy. Look forward to your responses and feedback. Cheers

      Do Alan and Keith work on Skylines now? I remember buying stuff from them when I owned my Ralliart Lancer a few moons ago. Definitely genuine guys and be excellent if they dealt with the skyline platform as well.

      Hey all, I'm Gaston from Sydney's West.  I was a member on here when I was a younger lad and owned a mint R33 GTS-T. Ended up selling it and getting married having kids (yadda yadda) we all know how the story goes. Now I'm back with the intention to get my midlife crisis (dream) car ... a R35 GTR.  You'll see me about asking questions and searching the forums. Good to be back and can't wait to get back an Import again.

      I have to put something here in order to post the photos. From what I could gather there's more enthusiasm for modified cars now than there has been for years. There were probably more younger people there than older (me included lol) which was a good sign.  It did seem like the record least amount of representation of the 90's era hero cars on display though. Like maybe one or two examples of S-chassis Nissans, and maybe 3 or 4 R-chassis. By comparison there were a lot of Civics from that era but in all there were about 10 - 12 EG/EK Civic Type R.  Euro exotics are always there in large numbers, led by Liberty Walk...... say what you will about kids using markers to scribble on a Ferrari F40, it did seem like a stunt to infuriate Ferrari enthusiasts, or Ferrari itself. I wonder if there's something more to it. Either way LBWK have done some heinous things to a Lamborghini Miura this time. They should stop now.
