for the ultimate jap racing bling check out the KEY!S wheels. http://www.cardome.com/keys/op03.shtml

I'm rocking one in the 33 GTR atm. it sure is 'out there' but feels great and I am a massive wanker anyway so the little stars stitched into the rim don't bother me...

yeah baby.

Which boss kit did you use and where did you buy from?

they are the same bolt pattern as nardi wheels. there are only basically 2 types in the world of aftermarket road car wheels nardi type or momo type. all other wheels fall into one of those. most boss kits these days will fit both. they are both 6 bolt and just have a slightly different pcd and different pattern. the only other types are basically open wheeler or go kart wheels.

the easy way to tell. if it has a bolt on the centre line above and below the horn button it's momo type. if it has no bolt on the centre line (like the key!s wheel) but instead has 2 bolts above and below the horn button then it's nardi type.

i bought the KEY!S wheel in japan.

It certainly is brov, it is the new version of that exact wheel, except it is all black and the grip itself is fully leather

here is the link to where I bought mine.

I bought this little puppy,,,. I'm going to buy a really cheap rubbish one to interchange so I never put my dirty grubby hands on it.

Cheers

I know how you feel Lol.

I put my Nismo on and I wanted to leave the little shower cap type plastic surround it came in on !

Did you put that bad boy in your 33 or the Radical ?

I'm sure you know this but with velour/felt type wheels if you don't use gloves the acid in your skin will deteriorate the surround super fast.

That Nismo one is pretty damn cool mate !!!. e-bay has some really cheap rubbish ones on there so I'm thinking I'll buy another quick release and use it to move the car around.

Definately going on the Skyline,,,the Radical has a very sweet little number (260mm) with a real race car release. I have some pics I think,,,yes here you go

The 2nd pic shows the spacer I had to make so I could get the wheel closer to me. I was getting wrist soreness very badly and after speaking to Malcolm Oastler at bathurst he suggested I do it. Fixed my problem straight away.

I never drive with out gloves,,but it's good reminding for anyone that doesn't.

Cheers

Neil.

      Certainly. It is probably broken under the wire style clamp. At least that one is easier to get at than the front one.   Sounds like it isn't a major leak, I'd start with backing off the the water feed and return banjos into the turbos half a turn then tightening properly. Hardlines can still crack over time, either in the tube (particularly when turbos are changed if the banjo is siezed in the the tube) or at the brazed joins between the lines and the banjo fittings. A coolant system pressure test will reveal all. BTW you'd be able to get a sump without exchange, it will just cost more as they will have to source another stock one for the next customer. If you want to address the sump a much better option is something like this https://www.hioctanedirect.com/hi-octane-racing-sump-extension-nissan-rb26 that you weld in locally (and add the oil return fittings at the same time)

      Pretty sure you are thinking of the throwout bearing there (which you should change when you change your clutch), when they are worn they will get quieter if you put your foot on the clutch. An input shaft bearing is turning/noisy at all times.

      Comfortable replacement seats for R32 GTR

      I’ll have more of a look into Recaros over the weekend. It’s taken me 2 days to figure out which Bride seats suit my application haha.

      I am aware of their presence, but the product page looked like that conversion will eliminate the AWD capability. Fact remains it's kind of a hassle to send my oil sump halfway around the world and buying an extra one is expensive and unnecessary. Before I go hat route I'd explore more local options.    Would you recommend I just pull the engine and renew as many things as possible since I'm already having problems with some leaks? Would have to get an engine crane first though.

      Are there any indicators that the vehicle is in limp mode?  Any dash light, or something.  Or is it just lack of acceleration?
