To be clear, what I need is a set of these in 18x10:

Would they be able to work off a photo like that?

Where are Braid based? Do you have a contact?

Cheers!

Did you PM Wedge?

He has a set of those he was thinking of selling

[JimmyRickard]

I did. Apparently they're a different rim. Unless I'm talking to the wrong Wedge!

If you're after graphics for a signwriter to use, you cant go past vector based stuff, if you need a hand with some of it PM me

Shouldnt be too hard to get your hands on

We just had Braid make us some new wheels for the GIO and Winfield Car.....they where about $600 a rim delivered. Pretty sure if you have the design they will remake em in stud or centrelock.

Surely a multi-piece rim is going to have a LOT more engineering and design considerations than a s1-piece, and thus cost a lot more. Pretty cool that they can do that though.

If he is in Perth then yeah the right guy

Sorry bout that as I thought they where the same or very very similar

My bad

Just a quick update, the car has been at the tuners where the final mechanical touches have been done, including tomei cam gears, power steering cooler, id2000 injector plus fuel rail install, hooked up fuel surge tank plus twin 044s, installed haltech duel wideband.

All was looking good and we looked set to go testing this Sunday at Wakefield until the vipec decided to pack it in

It was doing all sorts of weird codes and asking to set parameters for things that don't exist on the car ie, set parameters for electronic throttle ??? You have no option but to set something, so after trying for two days to get thru to the vipec dealers ( they did not respond once) we decided to ditch the vipec and purchased a haltech platinum pro, they seem to have a good network of technical guys who will actually help you not ignore you.

Car is back on the dyno on Monday, we will post results

[JimmyRickard]

Looks like the car will be ready for Circuit Club on the 7th of October. If you're out there and see a very slow, blue Skyline that will be me

Looking forward to finally getting some time in the car and hopefully start working on those lap times.

Back on the topic of the mirrors, the GKtech's don't appear to be suitable. Should I go for genuine ganadors? Are there any other options?

Is anyone able to lift a logo off this website?

Last logo I need is just the RS Hoshino Racing logo found on the wheels and I'm set

[JimmyRickard]

Sorry should've been more clear! "Cockpit" is the logo I'm after. In some photos it's on the front spoiler. Sometimes it's not though it's weird

That's it! Perfect! Thanks mate

Quick update.

On the dyno at Race Solutions. These guys have been fantastic to deal with:

Engine Bay with new fuel reg, fuel rail, tomei cam gears and power steering cooler. Nothing too exciting but progress all the same

[Hattori Hanzo 69]

[colourclassic]

Excuse my noobness but what is that large cylinder atop the valve covers? I was gonna say oil catch can?

[fatz]

See ya on the 7th

New bearings for everyone
