xt7s look good on the right car.. as evidenced.

please note:

Californian 240SX

slammed on URAS/Origin kit

rim touching fender

none of the knobjockeys in australia will have coconuts to emulate this on a day to day basis. Keep in perspective that this rim has to look good while sitting at least 5 inches away from any semblance of a fender and about 3 inches inside the wheel well.

they wouldnt be my first choice of rims but they are ok depends on price?

ummm cheaper then what he advertised them for...

and sif 5inchs high. my car is low...kinda. thats my car in my avatar. sits a little lower now.

True.

This what you are talking about Shan.

:blush:

ashneel, you need to go about 2" lower to pull off an XT7. edge to edge spoke plus rim skimming fender = baller. edge to edge spoke + entire profile of tyre visible then fender = meh. I'm sure it'll get the muzza's moist tho.

For reference:

At stock height...

See the difference? Same set of rims.

lol yeah ok, the first and last pics aren't the same diameter/width/offset. :blush:

look into JIC J-Force 07. They look similar and usually go for cheaper...

chrome on white might not be a good idea, so maybe you're right with bronze.

    • The nissan manual says to change coolant every 2 years. Is this still necessary if you're using coolant like Penrite or nulon which has improved over the years? It says it lasts 500,000km which seems hard to believe lol.
    • According to the Muse website, totally different material. The originals were that horrible solid foam rubber that was used for a lot of rear spoiler/flap things, like on Mitsu Galan GSRs. Heavy, and with enough compressibility/flex that any paint on them would crack fairly quickly. The Muse ones are just ABS, which is obviously similar to GTR lower front lip, etc etc. ABS is a good choice if you have the ability to tool up for it. The only thing better might be TPU-RIM or something equivalent. The TPUs were good. Plenty of flexibility (in twisting, bending, etc) but not really in compression.
    • Update 24/01/2025:    Bought a GReddy/Trust Intercooler (crossflow spec-LS) that was meant for a R33 GTST $871 AUD shipped, and a GReddy Profec boost controller $483 AUD, both brand new from Japan. Being honest, I would've thought the intercooler kit was discontinued but I guess not yet. Decided due to funds + time, I'll stick with a nistune on this stock-ish setup ( stock turbo set to probably 10-12psi ) and have it run cleaner ( suspect the 3" turbo back etc has sh*tted on my economy ) for my trip down south soon for the WSBK. Hopefully I can get it all installed and tuned by then. As for who I am getting it tuned with, I will be going with Toshi, (not hearing back from DVS so scratch that). There is also Birrong Auto but not sure if they do nistune installations and if they even tune it... Otherwise, anyone know where I can get my hands on an aluminium intake/suction pipe for an RB25DET NEO?
    • The german cars I've worked on seem to have that issue(in more than just headlights). Mostly where hot, but also just the insulation hardening and cracking in various places. Not abnormal from what ive seen.
    • According to the Muse website, similar material, but not the same. Meant to help with stopping the paint cracking. In saying that, I had genuine ones on my last grt, and never had that problem.   Could you post pics when you get them? Very much thinking of buying the Muse ones over fibreglass.
