Wheels look hideous.

Sorry, but just because something has a crazy offset and is wide, doesn't instantly make it a awesome looking rim. If the spoke design is hideous (like those) it is still a shit looking rim, no matter what the offset.

Shit:

Not shit:

I'd prefer a wheel with no dish with a great looking spoke design/colour than something that simply has dish but looks shit.

i think they look hot, but not made for skylines, you can only have certain rims on jap imports that suits them, same goes for euros.

volk for japs and bbs for euros. thats always going to be like that. euros have the styling and japs have something more toy like.

but those rims would look crazy on a merc or porsche. that style imo is more for the luxurious, not for the sports car

Oh I quite understand that these are not a "Skyline" design wheel, that is not my point. They look shit regardless if they were on a Stagea or an Aristo. As said above, there are plenty of nice deep dish wheels suited for the whole VIP look, those are not one of them and I don't understand why you all like them other than the fact they have "Hektik dish bro!".

cus they so hektik bro.... no, not really, i just like the look of them and i guess so do others. every person likes different looks in rims, i do prefer the "tuner" rims for a car personally, but if you want to go VIP, on a nice phat s600 then this is one of the best choices, they just look nice and beautiful.

id love to put BBS on a skyline, but i wont becaus from my view they look shit on a skyline.

i found a really nice set of bbs a while ago which actually looked really wicked and maybe a bit extreme, but they were a 1 off make for bmw, they were 15X15 rears and 15x11 front. you could have fit another rim just in the dish if you wanted to ;)

that rim/style of rim suits heaps of cars i run DH eurolines on my car which look identical gotta have knackers to pull it off, but eh each to there own cant all rock the same shit ay

Those rims are pretty bad looking.. but i love them! Not just cos of the size.. there's just something about them. Would rock them on a Cedric or something VIP

that 350z also looks gangster

    • As you're looking at using a Link ECU, then large injectors are not a problem. But there's not really any need to go 1000s on an RB20 unless you're planning >>600HP on E85, which would seem unlikely. There are other options for injectors. The Xspurt ones are available from a number of places and you can get them in the mid 600s and 725cc, which is probably a sensible place to be. These are all EV14 based. If you are not using the stock AFM (at all, which would be the case with a Link) then a large turbo intake pipe to suit the ATR turbos is not an obstacle, so you should use one instead of a highflow. Results will be better.
    • Hey guys,  I'm after some advice and this here is the best place to get it imo. I was a member a looong time ago under another account, with a lost email address. Its nice to jump back on and see some of the same names still giving good advice.  I mothballed my car when i moved to perth in 2013, and after getting towed across the nullabor a few times it has officially done more km's on a trailer than under its own power. Now that i have started the process of tidying up and modifying it, i see the fruit available (and the fruiterers selling the produce) is different than back in the day. hence my questions, as i used to 'know' what to get and now, i'm not so sure. Engine wise the car (92 gtst) has a walbro 255, k+n, fmic, cam gears and and turbo back 3"exhaust. Wish list is a Hypergear high flow or ATR43G1, Link G4x and some newer injectors before a tune up. My goals are modest, only low 200's power wise. i know i could achieve this with less, but i've been swapping out old for new where i can. Every cooling hose has been replaced, along with mani gaskets, WP, thermostat and radiator, fuel pump and timing belt, tensioner and idler, and i rebuilt the steering rack. Regarding the injectors, the fruiterers all seem to sell what used to be considered quite large injectors. There are a lot of options for bosch 1000cc EV14's, and i would like to know if that is a suitable choice for my build. Is modern injector design good enough to run these at the low duty cycles that i likely would be? is there a downside to running a too large injector these days? or, would there be an upside to running a smaller injector at higher duty cycle? I can see that there are smaller injectors still available, but the ones i have seen specifically marketed for RB's are pretty large (see: https://golebysparts.au/collections/fuel-rail-injector-kits/products/nissan-rb20-fuel-rail-bosch-980cc-1150cc-injectors-turbosmart-fpr800-regulator-kit), and i dont know enough about them to say one not marketed for RB's would fit or not. I have searched the forums, and amongst all the posts on older tech, I did see gtsboy recommend EV14's, but no size was mentioned... again, i'm not clear on if the smaller size bosch injectors are also EV14's as they do look similar.  also, if someone can recommend a tuner familiar with RB's in the Geelong or West Melbourne area i'd appreciate it. Thanks in advance guys. Cheers, Rowdy  
    • FWIW the depth of the groove in the rubber pad is not super essential, the blocks are rubber and squish a bit. If you are worried an angle grinder will make a deeper groove quick smart
    • I mean, if you were to move the jacking points away from the original location, that is, away from the wheels and closer to the centreline of the car, then it will be more likely to overbalance and tip off the supports. Same as we talked about before. I was talking about moving for-aft. If the sill is bent outward or inward, then the car would obviously look unstraight from the outside. Hopefully that hasn't happened either. Again, you can do comparative measurements from the chassis rails to see if there is much deflection.
    • Can you elaborate what you mean with your first sentence? I meant move as in the bulge kinda seemed like it got pulled "outward" meaning it got pulled down and to the side with the jacking rail itself, so the load bearing bulge now sits lower than usual and is not level with the sill on the other side of the jack point. Either that or the jacking rail just got pushed in a good bit.
