Was going to pick up some R34 GTR wheels for my car this weekend (one of many upgrades coming in the next few months) but it turns out the guy sold them the other day without telling me, even though we had already agreed on pricing and everything. So annoying.

Budget of $2k to spend for wheels and tyres, wondering what I should get now those are gone...

Tried hittin up import monster?

Nah the R34 GTR wheels in bronze look way better than the D1R's, every bogan falcodore seems to have D1R wheels.

So hard to find something that suits the aesthetics of the R34 properly, most wheels look so out of place and tacky.

The ONLY reason people like 34R wheels is because they come from a 34R. They look shithouse IMHO.

Professors/miesters look good on Anything... 32, 33, 34, laurel, chaser, smashed through Leeroy's tasteless skull, cima etc.

Also I might have been out of the hire car game for a few years

But $4000 standard excess? Or pay the fkin rort of $40 a day to have no excess? Really?

I hired a car for 1 night - from airport to hotel to airport. Only drove it 20km if that.

Didn't do the excess waiver.

Dropped off car early next day when no hire-car person available to inspect.

Two weeks later, received letter saying they've found damage on the car & will be starting claim.

Googled the company, turns out they are known for pulling this trick, got out of the claim in the end.

Make sure you take photos of the car before/after.

Meisters look amazing on 34.

Nah don't need to, I paid their rort money so the most I can get ripped off is the $40 a day

Rather not spend the weekend worrying about a fkin Micra when I park it or drive

    • I know right. It baffled me. There's no way when the engine is off, key is in ignition, (coils are dissconnected aswell), also my sound system was dissconnected (I don't run any audio capacitors), battery reads 12.2v and with the 10amp fuse blown I was measuring 24 to 30v. The reading would move a bit from 30v to 24v which was weird. I took a pic of the multi meter reading 🤣: (This is a brand new single channel digital oscilloscope that also has a multi meter mode).   Before when the fuse was blown, I had one lead on the 12v supply (green/white wires) of that brown relay and the other lead on the negative battery terminal. When I turned the key on ignition (engine off), it would read 30v. Then when I removed that relay from it's plug and tried putting ignition on again, it would read 12v, but I think it's because it can't turn on the ecu now that I removed it. I asked Chatgpt and this is what it had to say:   Not sure if those theories would be possible but, any auto sparkies here? welcome to confirm. 🤷‍♂️  No idea, but if it happens again, atleast I know what type of issue it is, unlike last few months where I didn't know what was causing all my issues and I was just taking stabs in the dark to figure out what type of problem it was. If it does happen again I'm going to investigate futher and trace back the source even more and inspect more circuits. I drove it to work this morning and the car drove and boosted fine. Yeah I was thinking the same, so I've imported my back up saved map (which is the map that I saved when it got done tuning) back onto my haltech with the base fuel pressure set to 43.5psi.
    • Yeh nice, if your in melbourne could you recommend any exhaust shops in the east that do a good job?
    • Sorry yes, this is what im after Also, that jpjdm site appears to be offline
    • @Duncan Random side note, did the cops give you the driver/owners details of the taxi and then did Shannons give you a refund of the excess once you supplied those details?
    • Yeah to be clear I'm not naive, I'm sure all insurance companies are a bunch of arseholes who pay people bonusses based on the value of genuine claims they avoid....I just don't want to go back to one that has personally f**ked me multiple times in the past
