I *can't believe* no ones mentioned Bee-R B5 Sports Wheels:

Nice. They look like a cross between the Nismo LM GT4's and TE37's.

2GU, I love the AME's. Have done so every since they came onto the market. And especially after I saw a burgundy R32 GTR years ago with a set on it that was lowered (almost as much as yours :wassup:) with SYNRGY plates on it. He later sold them and put R34 GTR wheels on it. They are nice, especially on a Gunmetal R32, but I can't seem to justify the $3K+ price tag for a set of used stock wheels.

I don't like replica wheels, they just don't seem to look as good as the real thing. Much like gts-t's with GTR body kits and badges :):D:D :cheers:

yea i know the car ive seen it before its gorgeous :rofl:

they are a genuine three peice japanese wheel thats why they are so expensive, when they were available the price was pretty much the same as most jap wheels going around now.

i agree 100% thats the copies look like shit

they are nothing compared to the originals

I was listening to the radio the other morning and heard about a Nissan Skyline that has a pulsar motor and the number plates Next Time?

I'm a total whore for anything race style 5-spoke, and most sweet six-spokes. I'm buying these, coz they're under $1000 in Japan (where I'm getting them from):

A-Tech "FinalSpeed cast" - Not a bad ripoff of the Gramlights methinks.

I Also considered the Wedsports SA-90, and the Voltec Racing RGR

    • Thanks to @V35_Paul there is an oem stereo available on gumtree, but the fascia is slightly different. It has a flip up screen as opposed to my pop up screen. Am I able to disconnect the radio/cd player from the fascia to use it on mine?    
    • Had to google what a quart is lol.. so rough as guts a litre. That's a bit excessive, also what oil weight are you running? The whole steam cleaning idea isn't too far fetched either. Maybe as you suggested, turn off the WMI (assuming your Kebabtech pulls timing, boost, etc.) and run it for a bit and see if there are any noticeable changes in spark plug colouring.
    • Pretty simple question. I was about to put the transmission back in and thought I pretty much had it lined up when I noticed it seems like the pressure plate isn't flat. I was pretty careful when undoing the bolts both during initial disassembly for cleaning and when torquing them up for installation so this is pretty discouraging. I'm not sure if I accidentally bumped the pressure plate with the input shaft and bent it somehow or if it just showed up this way. Is it possible that there's just something obvious I'm not doing correctly? I'm pretty sure I was extremely careful to make sure the friction discs were seated correctly in the hub, everything lined up, flywheel torqued according to sequence, the little springs all sitting correctly in their seats, etc.  What's the play here? Do I jump straight to a new pressure plate?
    • OK. I can see that being the case. But if you live in the land of "only switching between 4.08, 4.11, 4.36" like most Skyliners, then you never encounter it. Now I perhaps understand why the crownwheel is thicker on some of the smaller numerical ratio diffs. The two stubs being the same (unequal) lengths and just swapped side to side between the different cases is a new one to me. I'm hating Nissan R200s more than ever now.
    • Reason I say this is I have seen broken ones, in drift, drag and even behind a stock Z. I do appreciate most of the time its the synchro's that go.   Trouble with quoting HP is it doesn't really say how strong the box is.  I've not seen many CD00X box's make it past a mid 9(150mph) I have seen about a stock R33 RB25 box's run a 9 too, they all go boom at some point though.   Another clue is they make gearsets for CD00X box's too, wouldn't be a market if they didn't break or have a limit people are going past.   I totally agree it is a strong box, just have to weigh up the true total cost of the conversion vs rebuilding with a good gearset.
