What sort Scott? I'm kind of half considering changing my wheels already. Happy with the size and fitment, just bored. :rofl2: Anyone know what OEM wheels come in 19's? I'd consider spacers..

I'm in the same boat. Thinking of going something with a flatter face I stead of dish. Problem is I still love the rims on it.

There is an oem V35 19 inch rim by Rays I think, thats what the previous owner of my new rims upgraded to. I assume they are staggered though. 2 sets of front R35 gtr rims would be horn but I will be happy to just get the larger rolling diameter.

Im currently on 17 x 8 inch V35 rims, +30 and +33, with 235 45 17's (looking to sell soon)

The new rims are 18 x 8 inch V35 rims, +30 all around and I plan to get around 235 45 18's.

Sorry I dont have any pics yet, they are a dark chrome 7 spoke, got them for $550 with staggered tyres. :cheers:

Discovered the foot long gouge; down to the undercoat, in the rear quarter of my Stag.rant.gif

Obviously done when I left it in a carpark yesterday. Far too deep to be an accident.

Worked so hard to get it looking the way it does.

Fair dinkum sick to my stomach that someone would do that. I can't even look at it.

Nothing else to say.

Keyed? Bastards... I don't understand why you'd do that to a complete stranger...

If it's down to the undercoat do you have to get the whole side resprayed?

Got my car buffed, roof and bonnet lightly sanded, and removed badges......photos dont show how good the paint really looks......

Looks good, now get rid of the Infiniti badges! :nyaanyaa:

Go no badges at all for that clean look and for people's looks when they are trying to work out what car it is

I think my front radar grill would look funny with no badge at all, the infiniti badge still makes people say wtf is that

Had nismo N1 turbos, xforce dump pipes, 700cc denso Injecors, nismo fuel pressure reg, jjr adjustable cam gears, greddy clear timing gear cover, walbro in tank fuel pump, greddy profec b II fitted 2 weeks ago. Have faulty air flow meter/meters so have nismo ones on the way and getting re tune next Thu. Made 252.3kw at all 4 first time but with 20" wheels and a 34 degree day which wouldn't have helped the results. Here's a couple of pics. Will post results from next Thursday and dyno printout.

P.S. got my 20" wheels and tyres (+/- 90% tread)for sale or swap for R34 gtr wheels.

Looks great; you must be very pleasedthumbsup.gif

Yeah, looks more like a coin to me.

I'm not too sure at this stage; I'll probably go and see my painter on Saturday, but it looks like it'll be the full drivers side rear quarter, and cant rail from the "A" pillar through to the "C" pillar.

Depending on cost, I may take the opportunity to have the whole car flow coated. I can use a diamond hard HOK clear, which will solve the soft clear issue these cars have; but I don't know if I'm just inviting more of this negative attention.confused.gif

Sorry to hear about your car Daleo...some people are C*#NTS just for the sake of it

car is looking good Mouth :thumbsup:

Thanks mate, been a while since I have had a car vandalised; needed a bit of an outlet; the guys on here know what it's like. thanks.gif

My missus didn't know what to say when I told her; sent me a message when she got to work, telling me to do whatever I need to make it right. She's cool like that, no "It's just a car" from her.

Mate that straight up sucks. Anything else wrong with the body at all? Worth scratching it some more and making an insurance claim?

      Cleaning my wheels 😍

      Yeah, my moulds and seals are 32 years old now. I think I will continue to not use a pressure washer on it.

      I hear the old "I'd never use a pressure washer on my motorbike" BS in the dirtbike community too.  The only people that have had a problem from using a pressure washer on anything are the people that aren't using them properly.  If you hold the wand any more than 45 cms away from pretty much anything (radiators, wiring connectors, paint, etc) you aren't going to cause any damage.  We've had detailers wreck moulds and seals on cars at work before and the only reason why is they held the pressure washer too close and on the one spot for too long.  If you have 5% more brain power than a detailer then you know not to not do that and you'll never have a problem.

      I'm pretty much healed up post surgery so I spent another almost full day out in the shed re-arranging everything to make room for all of the shit that I've taken off the car.  I need to get everything off the floor and away from the car for when I start making a massive mess stripping off the remaining body deadener and then for the the painting process.  Almost got the shed to a point now where I feel I can actually start working on the car again (clean shed clean mind or something!).  Almost 11 years of accumulated car parts, building supplies, tools, junk, etc have taken a long time to get in some sort of order again!  Most stuff is now boxed up and in the back shed if it's not car related.  Most people would still be horrified walking into my shed but it's significantly better than it was before!   For those that saw my separate post the other day, yeah I ordered one.... This version- I convinced myself to stop being a clown, wake up to yourself and realise it will take you 5 weeks to make one by which stage you're over working on the car again...  Maybe I am getting on top of my "mental ailments" and making smarter choices.... $1450 delivered which will take my miserable half-dutch arse a few days to get over having spent that much!  If I don't have a use for it straight away after my car is off it I might even see if there is a "rental market" for them.  See if anyone wants to hire it for a period of time.  $25 a week or something like that.  I'll worry about that when my car is actually ready to come off it though as that might be a while away!! There's now no excuses now for not ending up with an underside you could eat off! Away for kids sport the next few weekends so hopefully can get the rotisserie assembled ready to go for the car to go straight on it the next available weekend.

      I always use my Karcher, but it's only a little one that I picked up from Supercheap  The only issue I ever had with a pressure washer was when I was a kid cleaning coaches, they had a hi-po industrial sized petrol jobbie that would strip paint if you got to close I saying this, we have a fairly high power washer at work with a diesel powered heater that sprays water at about 60°c, it works great for removing old wax and road grime on the underbody after some foam cannon action, albeit from a "stand off" distance of a few feet

      Mistakes were made, my R34 Story

      By Kinkstaah · Posted

      Sorry no - The sandtrap adventure ended the day, happened at the end of the last session. At that time I wasn't hearing any weird noises nor were the brakes shuddering anymore. It was only when watching the videos that I remembered I had these sounds early on!
