hi all

firstly great forum lots of great reads im just a little confused about power outputs

everywhere i look i.e car yards and websites they all claim 206kw factory

question is is this a reading from the flywheel or at the wheels?

just confused as so many guys are doing mods to achieve the 200kw mark

cheers

Jarrod

cheers jetwreck

still better than a camry wagon or volvo for that matter

was looking at 7 seater cruisers and patrols till i seen the luxury, performance and style of the m35 at a fraction of the price

i think a stagea will finally allow me to feel something happen when i press the loud pedal

too many years i have been smoking people with the loud pedal ( from diesel chaf ) not speed

going to get all teary here and say i think ive fallen in love :wub:

If your not wanting to modify it go look at the PNM35's with the VQ35DE. Best bang for your buck in the station wagon market imo...and most of the parts can be locally sourced as it basically a V35 or Z33.

having driven an r33 gts-t a few years ago on the west coast of tassie i loved the power delivery of a turbo

and ummm the sound bouncing back off the rocky walls on side of road

getting excited thinking about it sorry :unsure: is that feeling common lol

    • It still combines inches with mm, especially when you have .5 inches involved, and mm and inches that can go in either direction. This would give a clear idea on both sides of the rim, right away, with no arithmetic. Even better if somebody gives you the dimensions of the arch of multiple cars. i.e GTR may be 125mm, a A80 Supra may be 117mm, or something along those lines. Yes, you can 'know' that going from a 10in rim to a 10.5in rim with the same offset moves both sides about 6mm, but you still have to 'know' that and do the math. Often it's combined. People are going from 9.5 +27 to 10.5 +15. You may do the math to know it, but if it was going from (I had to go look it up to be sure) 241mm/2 - 27 - 93.5mm from the center line to (more math) 266/2 - 15 (118mm) from the center line. Versus 93mm vs 118mm. It's right there. If you know you have a GTT with 100mm guards you can see right away that one is close to flush and the other absolutely won't work. And when someone says "Oh the GTR is 120mm" suddenly you see that the 10.5 +15 is about perfect. (or you go and buy rims with approximately 118mm outward guard space) I think it's safe to say that given one of the most common questions in all modified cars is "How do offsets work" and "How do I know if wheels will fit on my car" that this would be much simpler... Of course, nothing will really change and nobody is going to remanufacture wheels and ditch inches and offset based on this conversation :p We'll all go "18x9+30 will line up pretty close to the guards for a R34 GTT (84mm)" but 'pretty close' is still not really defined (it is now!) and if you really care you still have go measure. Yes it depends on camber and height and dynamic movement, but so do all wheels no matter what you measure it for.
    • But offsets are simple numbers. 8" wheel? Call it 200mm, near enough. +35 offset? OK, so that means the hub face is that far out from the wheel centreline. Which is 2s of mental arithmetic to get to 65mm to outer edge and 135mm to inner. It's hardly any more effort for any other wheel width or offset. As I said, I just close my eyes and can see a picture of the wheel when given the width and offset. That wouldn't help me trust that a marginal fitment would actually go in and clear everything, any more than the supposedly simple numbers you're talking about. I dunno. Maybe I just automatically do numbers.
    • Sure! But you at least have simple numbers instead of 8.5 inches +/mm, relative to your current rims you do maths with as well, and/or compare with OEM diameter, which you also need to know/research/confirm..
