How much extra, and the longer you wait the better the result. Then once you do finally complete it you will say to yourself, I am so glad I waited.

It's coming along awesomely and I can't wait until finish!

this ^ so very much this ^

Funny you should say that. I have just spent the last month looking for a nice clean set of LMGT1's. Almost bought a set off fatz before I ran out of money and had to opt out. Funny thing is that the original rims aren't actually LMGT1's.

From what I understand, they are an IMPUL RS magneisum centre lock rim, one-offs made only for this car. Closest I found to it are these:

Hard to find, especially in 18x10 which is the original rim size.

You should PM Wedge34 as he has a set of impul centre locks on his car that he was thinking of selling

Only problem is he is in Perth now

Try a wheel business JaxFit, the wheel dealers would import them from the makers of the wheels and I'm sure they would't mind ordering some in some for you, or giving you a contact to get them done.

Please update his thread, I'm getting bored because no pictures and I'm in-love with the car.

Minor update: sideskirts are installed. Dualies out the side looks tough I love it.

also got a quote for the graphics. If anyone can find some nice, clean logos for the signage guy to copy that would be awesome. Gonna start hunting myself but if anyone can help that would be amazing :)

Car is currently at Pro Fabrication getting a surge tank installed and some other bits and pieces, and then off to Insight Motorsport for a tune.

In the mean time, i have my old exhaust laying around doing nothing. The front pipes are Veilside, and the exhaust is an RS*R. Any ideas on what they're worth?

    • Well it does have a motor with the same DNA as an Accord V6 motor. The J30A is a successor to the Tiger rice cooker C32A motor found in those cars.
    • FD RX7 I would probably marry if legal R32 GTR is toughest NSX looks like it's made from leftover Prelude and Accord bits  
    • When going to a suspension shop should I send them the default nissan settings or just let them do their own thing? I ask this because I have aftermarket rear camber arms and my car is lowered a bit (front end is basically stock after I change to those nismo bushes)
    • Ok sounds good, thanks for your help. Hopefully if I end up changing it to the nismo bushes I don't get that veering issue. I don't think there's a point in lubing up these bushes again. Weird that it it makes just as much noise with all the grease inside it versus without grease prior to removal. Bizarre.
    • Yeah, you don't need camber bushes on stock arms to make a car drive straight unless it's got another problem. F'rigsample, slide the thing into a kerb, bend the front subframe mounts a little....subframe is now twisted, shifted or otherwise in the wrong spot...and you need to do funky stuff with the wheel alignment to get it to drive straight. Maybe a little more caster on one side, or a little more camber. FWIW, I can have my camber off side to side by a half a degree or more, and either way, so more one side, or more on the other, and the car doesn't really want to pull to one side. It will definitely ride road camber differently, and want to track uphill (ie, towards the centreline when on the LHS of a normal crowned piece of road, like it should) or want to roll downhill (which it really shouldn't). But on fairly flat road surfaces, like the middle of a 3 or 4 lane motorway, a half a degree either way doesn't make a lot of difference. I sometimes do quite a few miles with my wheel alignment messed up, because I don't always get a chance to set it right again after a serious dismantling, before I have to drive it to work again. Like, a whole week's worth of daily shuffle.
