Of course its their choice, they do it because they want their car to look 'ful sik'.

But maybe if they realised when they drive past in their 'ful sik' r33 with half of a gtr body kit hanging off their car it looks retarded and cheap. And I honestly cringe every time one drives past, and so does my girlfriend and all of my other friends who know about jap cars.

I have a lot more respect for guys who do up their gtst's and have the balls and creativity to give it its own look.

agreed. but in the end, it's their choice, because it's their car. I am with you though :D

ps. if I get a R34 GT-T I'd love to get the R34 GTR wheels, but I probably wont, because that's just trying to make it something it's not. I'd prefer to get some decent Rays or Work wheels, and make it look .. well ... unique! :headspin:

Great Company in Japan makes rims which look like r34 gtr rims called Grenade GX01 . I read somewhere that they are an exact copy, but not so sure about that. They are cheaper new than a set of 2nd hand gtr rims, have 3 colour choices and heaps of offset choices... so a heaps better idea than getting gtr originals.

I think the reason why these wheels are so cheap is because they are not forged like the original GTR wheels.

    • Yes, but 2 things of the top of my head, 1. Legalities of nitrous on a street car. 2. No chop chop. I fully understand that there's much cheaper ways to make power, and whilst a wet 50 shot is fairly cheap to install, bottle fills are expensive, and bottles always need to be refilled, and nitrous also has its own inherent issues with reliability, and tuning, from my experience of others using nitrous, it doesn't take alot to lunch a engine real quick if something goes slightly wrong when spraying, if I wanted a big chunk of additional powers, a spooly boy would make alot more sense, disregarding the additional engineering, supporting mods and other logistical issues of sticking a spooly boy on a car that came naturally aspirated from factory  In the end I'm not racing for sheep stations, and I don't really care if people make more power, or are faster than me, or spend less, or more than me, the only thing the car needs to do is drive around and make me smile, which it is doing now Really, I just want a shiny new intake to look at when I'm cleaning the engine bay, and of course, some more induction doorts, and maybe even that 5kw for that elusive 200hp cherry on top that I might get If the FAB9 intake plenum, TB and air filter box thing doesn't eventuate for whatever reason, Plasmaman do one, not as fancy looking, and a fair chunk of more cash is required when including the TB and other bits and pieces that are required to install it, but, it is another option that is available to me if FAB9 one does fall down (but I really, really.....really, want the FAB9 one though) TL;DR. You want what you want
    • Been so long since I have been here,seeing SDU is dead. I had that problem on my gtr in 2006 but luckily there was no engine damage,it was inspected by Hytech Engines,race bearings and extended crank collar put in and that was about it. Hopefully yours is sorted now.
    • Would it not be cheaper to just spray nitrous?
    • I've got cash, it's the NA LOLS I'm after now Plus, I've had a few boosted cars, and it is soooo easy to turn a reliable car into a unreliable drivetrain eating money pit monster by just paging up and chasing more My power goal for the NC is to try for a reliable naturally aspirated 150kw or 200hp atw (I'm old, and the old naturally aspirated cherry of 100hp per litre is a goal that I would like to hit), no more is really needed for what I use the car for,  so a additional 5kw is what I'm chasing now,  that 5kw is about $3k away, I think....
