Can you take a side on shot?

I dont have 19's on but also interested.

My 18's have very minor scrub on the inner gaurd plastic on full lock going slow.

PS. What's your paint code ??

ACT plates ?? not seen that GTR on the roads down here.

Hey richard,

The previous owner lives in the act...I originally bought it back in 2002 then sold it in 06, I then bought it back early 2011.

I don't have any side pics on my phone. As to the paint code its the standard jet silver metallic which is 'KL0'

God_speed's car taken last weekend. This Nur has massive brakes.

I do think under certain circumstances (wrt body colour/wheel colour), the R32 GT-R can look quite outstanding with 19s.

2002 wow - so long ago and it's boomeranged back to you. Must have been maintained well.

There was one, I think this one, in a Suburb called Jerrabomberra between Qbyn & ACT.

I though it was KL0 but the light in the pic made it looked different. Mine was KL0 but looked like this in 2004 on 17's.

Keen on seeing 32's with 19"'s

Looks tough Marko!

How wide are they and what's your offset?

I think offset is +20...yeah I couldn't let it go, my intention was to buy it back which took me 5yrs haha and the very reason I stayed in touch with him on a regular basis. How cheeky am I :)

I bought it off a very close mate and in fact this gtr has been in the family since 96 :)

Back to more pics of 19s!

richard - your gtr has undergone some serious transformation from what it was in 04 - good job :)

      Ticking Sound On Idle - Rb25

      By GTSBoy 路 Posted

      Well, hydraulic lifters will get noisy if they are dirty/fouled in some way, and exactly how that manifests will depend on exactly what schmutz is where. There is a procedure on here somewhere for dismantling and soaking/cleaning them. Replacing them with new is about 50% of the work and about 5% of the money!

      Ticking Sound On Idle - Rb25

      By myrbgivesmeheadaches 路 Posted

      Thanks for the reply @GTSBoy this is is a hydraulic lifter engine. Yea right i did not realise the lifters were supposed to be compressible while installed. I could push them down but i had to lean almost my while body weight on them.  I have never heard of a lifter/ lifters ticking only at hot idle and getting worse the hotter it gets. I have owned a few jdm cars with noisy lifters. This noise is slightly more subtle, it is more of a sharp gentle metalic tic than the solid and more loud tapping I've heard on lifters. I have used a metal rod, alloy tube, hose and stethoscope and could not find the source of the tick. But it appears to be loudest on the actual engine block behind the exhaust cam gear and next to the oil filter. I had mate (40 year old mechanic) go over it with me and he couldn't find it either..  Could it be a cam seal issue of some sort?  Cheers

      This seems problematic and unlikely at the same time. Vanilla RB2Xs have hydraulic lifters. They do have "zero" clearance, but only when running with oil pressure inside them. When not running, you should be able to compress them and obtain heaps of clearance. RB26s and Neos have solid lifters. They should have ~0.3mm and ~0.5mm on the inlet and exhaust respectively. If they have zero clearance then bad things are happening. With nothing else being wrong, it would mean that the valves would be held slightly (ever so slightly) open when they are supposed to be closed and it should have all sorts of problems when running, caused by leakage in/out through the valves. Or, zero clearance can indicate severe valve seat recession. None of it is good. Have you used a piece of hose as a stethoscope to try to localise the noise?

      Sorry for reviving an old post, but I'm having the same hot idle tick issue. Did anyone ever find out what it was?  I have checked/ replaced Injectors Coils checked Lifter clerance (is at zero) Checked Cam lobes Replaced exhaust gasket and studs Would appreciate any advice this is driving me nuts
