Oh Nummy. :P

I want me some 33 GTR rims.

Yeah they are just as hard to find! I wasn't going to get a set of track rims just yet as i didn't exactly have the cash to spend BUT these came up at the right price so i had to break the bank :laugh:

How heavy are they per rim?

Compared to the cast XT7's i would say they would be light... The 4 parcels coming have a combined weight of 36kg including the packing materials...

Sure you don't want some SE37's?

Nope, have always wanted a set of black 34GTR rims so now all i gotta do is work out how to clean them up and paint them :D

Tow Car Updates...

The poor cruiser was getting a bit neglected so now it has had full service, big exhaust put back on and some new suspension bushes.... We also decided to replace the floor in the back so we could run Carmens new toy (Weaco 40L fridge)... We are generally useless when it comes to renovating or building anything but we worked OK on this one lol

80L of E85 works wonders -

We plugged all the holes from the old seat brackets etc -

We still need to do some finishing touches and get the fridge bolted down properly etc BUT for all the upcoming track days we will now be sorted! Everytime we go to a day out we find something we can do to make our day better ;)

But...by putting a fridge in there there is less room for tyres!! :P

Cruiser has a big ass roof cage, trailer has about 4ft of spare room... I think we got it covered ;)

Oh and YES in the pictures i was using the 34GTR rims as a work bench for cutting the floor :whistling:

Atleast we know that they are strong haha!

Are you gonna paint them black, Mat? They seem to be in excellent condition as it is...

You going with 275/35's?

Lol yep!

I love the black look and WANT to paint them but i am not sure as yet... That photo makes them look pretty mint but the far one does actually have some rash... Im not sure yet but would hate to break the black/white theme! I see black ones and do like the look of them, would love to change the GTR badge to something else too but not sure if that is possible without too much hassle...

And no, either 255/35 or 265/35 (Leaning towards 265 at this stage)...

The 275 is too tall and puts the speedo out etc....

Ah I see haha. I have a feeling they'll be black soon..

As for the GTR badging, Im in the same situation. I found a ebay seller who has circle Nismo badges in any diameter you want. But they dont even look genuine. Was going to surgery them onto the centre caps if possible. Or just get another set of centre caps and hack the gtr badge off...

Plastidip?

I honestly think this is the best option for now! That way it is cheap but also reversible if needed! I haven't attempted it before but i think Carmen is keen to have a crack at it!

Hmmm these centre caps are too clean to mess with! I know places like StreetFX will make stickers and stuff that would cover the spot nicely but i dont want to ruin the caps! I think i might give Matts idea a crack and see how they look...

    • I'm not up to date on the latest, but for basic modifications like pod filter, lower springs etc you can get a modification permit at the time of inspection.  For more serious modifications you will need engineering.  Intercoolers used to fall into the mod permit rule but its been a long while since i looked it up.   Either way you will be able to get it registered, just a case of $300 vs $3k . 
    • Hi everyone! I’m the new owner of a 1996 R33 GTS-T, I’ve purchased this car over from Queensland and brought it to Western Australia and I’ve found that there is a hole cut out in the engine bay for the FMIC that enters into the wheel well (fender liners are in the boot). For anyone that has had to get their car over the PITS here, will this be a major issue?   
    • Yeah I've spotted this one too, whenever it's lotto superdraw week and I'm browsing car sales dot com for my new ride They must be dreaming, maybe it's worth 150k for the link to Brock?
    • 100% accurate!  We are a pack of know it alls....  But, I bet people go to you when they have a problem! I've been on a bit of a clean up rampage too over the past month!  I've thrown more shit in the bin over the past 2 weeks than I have in the past 3 years combined! Anyway, it's all good fun being different! My wife sometimes does not agree!  
    • ADHD in all form isn't about "can focus, or can't focus" or is hyper active or isn't etc.   It's all a dysregulation. Either time feels to be stationary, or time just vanishes in a split second. We are either under focussed on the task at hand (as we're over focussed on our surroundings) or we have no idea an atomic bomb went off beside us as we're so hyper focussed and locked in on things.   Not to mention the rapid fire thought process. What it takes a "normal" process to think up a solution to a problem, ADHD will be able to give you 5 different ways to solve the problem, and the pros and cons of each. While we can be highly impulsive and lack the ability to "control ourselves" we can also become paralysed with the inability to make a decision for ourselves. While most of us have an OCD like requirement for perfection, we lack the ability often to remain focussed to get things to a perfect state. Those with undiagnosed ADHD as adults, can often find the last part actually stops them ever attempting to do things that they have the ability to do, as the reasoning is often "if I can't do it perfectly, it's not worth doing"   As for projects... Ha ha ha, I still need to take the other half of my wall trim down in the Fiance's office so I can paint it. Need to finish digging and running the back yard drains, my R33, getting the Ninja bike registered (now being sold), the moped project, fixing either of the lawn mowers so they're reliable, along with a myriad of other things.   It's why I've been going through lately and just being brutal and clearing projects off that I won't actually ever complete. IE, moped will go to the tip, or be given away, bike is being sold, Subaru project being sold, some parts for other projects given away. Or I've been making myself focus on one thing at a time, by ticking off the smallest quickest ones first.   There's also a reason by our mid twenties we seem to be "know it alls", as we've all been down some of the weirdest and oddest rabbit holes when you follow the dopamine trail. It's often also why we're more a jack of all trades, but not a master of one.   However, pretty much all of my hobby projects, in one way or another, all come back around to automotive. That's my zen area.
