Cheers for the positive comments guys :)

Rob, I was actually expecting them to look a lot more "goofy" with the stock suspo but they seemed to have filled the guards a bit more which is good. I had the car next to a mates yesterday, who has aftermarket suspo, and the distance between his guard and rear tyre is almost identical. The only difference was the distance between the ground and the kit being almost 2 inches higher!

Those rims are Awful!!

Awful sexy!!!

Shan does work for J-spec in a sense, he spends his spare time tinkering under the office desks under the guise of computer maintenance, whereas we all know he is really looking up their skirts and getting his jollies!! :)

haha more like I inspire Craig to program. And if the boys start wearing skirts I'm not gonna go there ever again....

As for calipers Paint em the same colour as your car? its the best way to do it. Or shine em up bling bling style

There's a set of 4 and 2 sets of pairs goin for around 10000Y per set which is about $125 to buy. Add the freight costs and you've got a set for about $500 or so (guesstimate). They all come with tyres as well.

grey? silver? light blue? bayside blue wouldn't hurt next to your paintjob.

there's 3 ways you can go with it. Find the colour that's opposite to your car on the spectrum, or find a colur that's the same hue but of a different saturation, or go with the same colour.

slightly off topic shan, but would u know when the Kiwi ships are leaving for OZ? I'd be interested to see cos then i can work out, well i've got such and such a time to get a car if i want it on this ship. Then if i miss one, i've got such and such a time for the next one.

I'm having trouble finding a silver, manual R34, i might have to go black but if i've got time to wait for a Silver, i will.

cheers.

They're called Enkei RS-Evolutions. mind you I can organise for someone to go to second hand tyre shops up there too (if you've ever looked thru an Option mag you'll know that there's a fair few of em with LOTS of stuff)... but that costs a lil more (have to pay the dude to go n get the rims etc but you save on shipping since you don't have to pay for shipping from the yahoo seller to tokyo).

If you need more details PM me or hop on msn n add me ([email protected])

      braided lines for the turbos

      By sunsetR33 · Posted

      Thanks for the reply @GTSBoy Haven't really thought of that yet, but you are right. If the hose was damaged it should be absolutely pissing by now. I'll put some heat sleeve around it for good measure since I'm already removing the line anyway.  Maybe I'll put on some of the stock hardlines if I ever fully remove the turbos again. Maybe when T51R modding the compressor housings? Might be a fun mod on GT28s for that "fake single turbo" effect.

      Unpeeling the Orange

      By sunsetR33 · Posted

      Update 1: I did some work on the car already before finalizing this post and my "issues" list. I dropped the Tomei exhaust in favor of the HKS Hi Power Silent. Sounds nice and I can actually hear myself think now. Also gives me a realistic chance to legally drive without silencer inserts. A bit of cheating was necessary to still be able to mount the Top Secret style diffuser. Some malusage of washers and a bit of "convincing" toward the brackets and exhaust hanger seemed to do the trick. The shaky steering wheel has been resolved as various suspension components were worn, like sway bar bushings and link bars. Most notably the two steering tie rod ends. Had some trouble finding bushings because my sway bars are not OEM thickness, 23.x up front and 27 rear. But non adjustable, so no aftermarket I suppose. Maybe they are nismo units? Turbo oil drain hoses were definitely still the originals and are new now. Wasn't the cause of the turbo oil leak sadly. Currently removing the rear turbo because of it, I suspect the braided oil feed line is the culprit. This issue needs to be dealt with so I can work towards actually getting the turbo setup legal and inspected. Two new issues to add to the list as well. Rear Main seal is probably leaking. Time will show how bad it is, I don't really want to drop the gearbox right now just for the stupid seal. Could fix a few other things in one go once I do that. Front right driveshaft grease is going past the cv boot, so at some point I'll fix that too.

      RB20DE NEO smallbox clutch.

      By Kapr · Posted

      Ok so no 4cyl clutch... Yeah it is a factory manual. So if iam correct i need clutch and flywheel too? I can use something that suits something like R32 GTST?   EDIT: https://www.ebay.com/itm/224291042776 Is this ok?   EDIT2: i maybe forget to mention this(dk how important it is) but the trans will be behind RB25DET NEO(iam doing swap) It will be there for a little while. Iam planing to do bigbox or BMW tranny..

      You're probably right about that one. Thanks for your suggestions, I hope I don't need a new 3rd brake light. Although wiring issues might arguably be worse. Right now I'm in the midst of a turbo removal because of my oil leak, other problems are going to have to wait for now.

      Hell, I know that much. So far I just put it off as "part of the deal".
