Looks sweet!

tangomatt's R34 GTR is a stunner as well!

I remember seeing the LMGT4's wheels at a Show N' Shine and they are in MINT condition.

Nismo LMGT4's are my all time fav wheels, but I have settled (atm) for TE37's as they came with my car :laugh:

Thanks everyone for all your kind words! I'm looking forward to put more updates on here.

Thank you again Matt for such an easy transaction with the wheels. I had to look at them everytime I walked into the garage for 3 whole weeks until I got my car :woot:

I'm a huge sucker for all things Nismo ! :D

When I first saw them for sale I just had to jump on them straight away. I would love to own a set of TE37's. I was considering them as well as CE28N's before I got the LMGT4's.

Nah, TE37 > LMGT4 (even if they have a fancy center cap!) :( Haha!

Just installed some Nismo LED Tailights yesterday. They are super bright, especially when you brake, you can pretty much everything light up behind you in red. And yes Terry, I bought the girlfriend some nice fragrances as well just to keep the balance in order :)

I guess they are both great wheels.

I still prefer the stock tail lights, but that adds a slight update to the car.

Hehe...

Most girls appreciate it when you get them something on birthdays, valentines, anniversaries or Christmas.

The fact that you buy her something special on a day that is none of the above means, you are her soul-mate. :happy:

Now let's see how many years it takes for her to catch on that straight after you've bought her something, you buy yourself something! My guess? 'Er 5 years lol :(

I'm looking to get a Nismo 320km/h instrument cluster but I haven't decided on whether I should get the black face or white face. I've seen that the white face is a more popular choice for the GTR, but on my GT-T before, I had the black face Nismo 300km/h cluster and I just loved it when it was illuminated at night.

Thing is, I'm not too sure about is whether or not they both illuminate the same colour or if they are different. If anyone could post up a picture of the white face cluster when it's illuminated that would be much appreciated.

cheers,

Garland

Very Very nice car mate, kudos to you on changing the tail lights, its the one thing about the r34's i dislike - standard tail lights.

I currently have a r34 GT (for sale) and have the nismo tail lights too, love them.

I know others have said it, but you own my dream car too, bayside blue (or would be equally happy with midnight purple 3) :P

I'll try and get a pic of mine lit up as I have the white faced one. If you like it, I've got a brand spanking new cluster for sale as well too.

Thanks for that Eugene! PM sent :down:

Thanks Chris. All the best and good luck for your sale. Hope to see you post up your R34 GTR next then :P

Here is a pic of the new Nismo 320km/h White Face Cluster I've just installed. Thank you to Eugene again for your help with the part and for a very smooth transaction. I have also took apart the standard cluster's fascia and swapped it with the Nismo one. I think that it gives it more of an "edgy-er", smoother look and it also matches up the fascia around the head unit and the gear shift surround. Plus when I had my GT-T before I use to always want the metallic fascias of the R34 GTR's :ermm:

I'd thought of selling my original dash and buying the Nismo one that JDM Performance sells. Eugene is so honest in his dealings too.

But my reason was not based on looks. I wished mine looked as nice as yours.

I just knew that whenever I go over 180, I'd really not want to know how fast I was actually doing.

You know the saying, "Ignorance Is Bliss" hehe...

Besides, what else can I say if Mr Plod pulls me over and asks, "Do you realise how fast you were going back there?"

I always tell the truth! Well nearly... :D

Thanks all for your kind words!

Terry: Thanks Terry! hahaha But I guess in that situation ignorance is bliss. :)

LOL I guess a "I'm not too sure" answer would be much better than "oh about 221km/h" :(

But yeah, Eugene is very honest with he's dealings. Great person to deal with. I had the Nismo cluster as well in my old GT-T and driving with the standard issue one, just doesn't feel the same lol But the white face one definitely stands out more.

I also saw Garry & Jack last weekend. The performance figures on your car are very impressive!

Pity you didn't own your car for the 10th Anniv of the R34 GT-R Event that our team put on last year.

You'd have to contact and buy "MOTIVE DVD #3" (back issue) to see it. We caught the autumn colours of Mt Wilson + Japanese Sword Display + lady in Kimono dress. All caught on Performance Imports Magazine #113 "Best Of The Best" (That would have to be a back issue too).

Wow that sounded awesome! Yeah I saw lots of pictures from that day and Eugene had also mentioned it to me as well. Damn! If only there were another one :) Looked like such an awesome day out!

But back then Garry and Jack had a different GTR to this one. Looks wise it's almost the same. I think I've stumbled upon that car on the For Sale threads not too long ago.

      You're making my point for me. 95 is not "premium". It is a "slightly higher octane" version of the basic 91 product. The premium product that they want people to buy (for all the venal corporate reasons of making more profit, and all the possibly specious reasons of it being a "better" fuel with nicer additive packages) is the 98 octane stuff. 95 is the classic middle child. No-one wants it. No-one cares about it. It is just there, occupying a space in the product hierarchy.

      98 and 95 have to meet the same national fuel standards beside the actual RON.  91 has lower standards (which are quite poor really), so 95 is certainly not 91 with some octane booster. It would be an easier argument to claim 98 is just 95 with some octane boosters. Also RON doesn't specify 'quality' in any sense, only the octane number.  Anything different retailers decide or not decide to add to their 95 or 98 is arbitrary and not defined by the RON figure.

      95 is just a scam outright. 98 is the real "premium" with all the best detergents and other additive packages, and at least historically, used to be more dense also. 95 is just 91 bargain basement shit with a little extra octane rating. Of course, there's 91 and there's 91 also. I always (back in the 90s early 2000s) refused to put fuel in from supermarket related fuel chains on the basis that it was nasty half arsed shit imported from Indonesia. Nowadays, I suspect that there is little difference between the nasty half-arsed shit brought in by the "bargain" chains and the nasty half-arsed shit brought in by the big brands, given that most of it is coming from the same SEAsian refineries. Anyway - if there's still anything to that logic, then it would apply to 95 also. 98 is only made in decent refineries and, as I said, is usually the "premium" fuel, both in terms of octane rating and "use this because it's good for your engine because it's got the unicorn jizz in it!".
