no, official weights coming, will post when available. will be more i'm afraid.

i think the stock GTR wheels are 25.6 lbs F and 26.9 lbs R

a dedicated track set up is coming though so won't effect performance where it counts.

Looks great, Mark. Nice choice in wheels.

I think a little height adjustment will really set it off.

If only my driveway would let me! have to guide the thing in and out every day as is. only solution is to buy a new house and garage.

Just thought i'd post up here as well since its relevant,

for those looking for aftermarket wheels for their GTR. the Enkei GTC01 is now available special fitment made for the new GTR in 20".

more info and pictures in my other post in the trader section : http://www.skylinesaustralia.com/forums/R3...-G-t280086.html

We also have the OEM Bridgestone in stock, and have the dunlop on order for unbeatable prices as other GTR owners have found out when shopping around(and cheaper than importing from tirerack etc...)

PM for more info or details.

Can you PM me with the details on price of the Bridgestones and the Dunlops as we are about to put an order together. I can't PM you as I don't have enough posts yet being green to all this forum stuff

Thanks

Sounds great, any indication on the Dunlop prices? and out of interest has anyone tried the dunlops at the track, relative to the bridgestones? really would like some hard data on how much quicker they are from those who have tried them

I have the Dunlops on order with Taleb Tyres, they are going on in the next couple of weeks, a track day booked for late August, so I will let you know.

I will back up their pricing, I shopped everywhere and these guys did the best price for me....I would 100% recommend them.

Cheers,

Gibbo.

Seen a few after market rims for R35, some nice, some not so nice, all I will say on the topic is that the Original factory rims look best and IMO are the best looking stock std factory rim on ANY production car at the moment. I can understand people want something different, but gee I reckon Nissan REALLY nailed the formula with the look of standard alloy.

We run the Dunlops, they are quicker everywhere ;)

yeah, going with the stock wheels and the dunlops for track use for now. Especially since people are starting to provide reasonable pricing for them.

BTW Martin, the Midpipe arrived today, its in the boot for now...

yep, I have tried both the dunlops and the bridgestones. not sure how "hard" my data is, but the dunlops are definitely better on track. :P better than some semi's i tried too on 19s.

I reckon getting a set of dunlops on your stock rims for track and keeping your HREs with the bridgestones for street is a good idea handbrake. :D

but the bridgestones are definitely better on track. :P better than some semi's i tried too on 19s.

Dunlops I hope, about to pull the trigger on them anyway!

    • GTSBoy on your suggestion on another thread I had a look at those injectors and ended up getting them because of the quality.  Got the expensive ones.  
    • 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!
