After all my dramas with my Varianza T1S, i ordered another set of Work's - this time going for something a little classier / less sporty.

This time i opted for:

Work Gnosis GS-5's

Centers finished in satin matte silver

Dish is stepped and finished in machined satin (which has an interesting ripple texture).

20X9.5 +15 BIG BRAKE R-DISK FRONT

20x10.5 + 23 DEEP TIME O-DISK REAR

I would NOT recommend this offset unless you are planning on running it LOW, or have BAGS.... the wheels stick out around 3cm from the guards at standard driving ride height

These photos were taken with my iphone and are just a trial fitment, as there is a bit of guard work i need to do to actually drive on them!

...and here is how they sit at the airbag "high" setting... it's amazing the difference in camber based on rideheight!

should sit around an inch lower once i am done too.. the height in the above photos was as low as it could go without guard work, but by sunday i hope to have it sitting on the bump stops like it does with the standard wheels.

Nice wheels......

with 20's are you able to drive without having to alter suspension?

I think i have seen your car 2 weekends ago on Olsen Ave........? i dont think there are anyother v36 on the Gold Coast besides yours and mine. I have a white one 08 S manual, is your man?

Badges i got from riverside infiniti in california (just go to their ebay.com store)

20's drive fine with standard suspension, though i have changed my springs to airbags.

Mine is a Semi-Auto... didn't really want a manual for my daily..!

driving it slammed the lowest point is around 12mm from the ground so it's not really possible : i have modified the inner guard lining enough so it rolls without scrubbing, but that said you can only get about 20 degrees turning circle, and the chassis even hits the cats eyes on the road, so it's stupid really...

my drive height is around an inch higher than that, and rides like factory.

Hey Guys, I have 22s on mine not lowered, still looks sweet rides ruff though. I am wondering if you still have your original 19s? if so would you be interested in selling them. I want to go back to stock and made a huge mistake of trading them in when I got the 22s. If you wish I would even be interested in trading the 22s for you originals. I spent the cash and got Perelli P zeros tyres as well.

Hope we can come to some sort of deal.

damn...hustlin! two two twenty twooooos!

does it actually hit the inner guards when you go over speed bumps or turn?

No rubbing at all its sweet, Just want the 19s cause they ride nicer if you want im keen to sell them. I have only had them since March and I have been over seas since April. The tread is Pirelli PZero, just want those 19s dam it.

    • I haven’t taken them out of the cases yet    inside the box is this packaging which is pretty much like a massive blister pack 
    • Purchased a NC MX5 a while ago Basic suspension mods done, BC coils and Whiteline sway bars  New DBA calipers, discs and pads Added some 17 x 8 Konig Decagrams with 215/45 17 PS5's Added some typical NA bolt on's, i.e. full exhaust and intake  Added 0.5ltrs with a MZR2.5 swap, nice bump in torques  Found a detachable hard top which is locked in for a colour match with my local paint shop in Feb 25, this also includes some PDR as it has received a few love taps from parking in the local shops when in the hands of my Minister for War and Finances, me, I park nowhere near other cars and typically park on the street The little thing is awesome, I drive it everywhere, it handles like a dream whether I'm up it or just cruising  But now,  because I'm a idiot, I keep looking at turbo kits....... did I mention I'm a idiot Why is dose so appealing  All of the NA 2.5 glory, well.......until sometime in 2025 anyway....🤪  
    • I would not be surprised if you are the only person on earth that has the interest/desire to do that lol.  The Haltech base map is a really good starting point, the car will fire easily and drive very well, even on mild boost levels. To me, following your advice sounds like some sort of ancient Chinese water torcher lol (this is not an insult Josh, never change <3)
    • Those car show concepts from the 2000's and 2010's like the Floria and IDx were brilliant and should've gone ahead, at least one of them. But neither Honda nor Nissan are thinking about affordable performance any more, which is truly sad.  Even if Toyota's liquid hydrogen ICE development reaches the point where it's commercially viable and the infrastructure to support it, Honda/Nissan would have to wait until Toyota allow fee access to their patents to offer it with any smaller performance models they released to take advantage of it.  
    • A sporty manual RWD coupe with a IL4 Honda engine would only be a good thing I assume we won't see anything released for a few years though, unless informal talks and designs have been going on for a few years,  and due to the current, and future, emmisions and safety requirements, I assume anything "sporty" they would do would be at least some hybrid thingie And hopefully anything they are thinking of has nice lines, without lots of plastic and fake bits hanging off it like that horrendous FK8 that looked like it was designed by a 13 year old The other issue of course in the current market is cost, currently the type R is around $70k, a twin is around $50k Meh, I'm old and grumpy and would rather buy a older model car and waste my coin on that than buying anything currently available new
