These Kakimoto's

designed for the R32, they just look right.

I have a set with rubber for sale in gunmetal that matches your paint & offset.

they look better with the centre plate removed, the big alloy nut srewed back on minus the kakimoto logo - very street cred.

I'll post up a pic. Let me know if you want to trial fit.

i liked the Work rims to start with, but after having them on my car for a while now, im starting to dislike them. the design is good and the colour (gold with polished rim) its just that the spokes are really wide and dont go right to the edge of the rim. they are 18x9 and 18x10 and have mad dish, u just cant see much disc behind them and they look smaller than 18s. im going to get some Gram Lights 57 Pro's, they are made by Rays Engineering.

if anyone out there is looking for some 18" Work rims, the same as the gold ones above, off R33 gtst, gimme a pm.

cheers

oh and the 'trafficstar' 19" on FLYBYE (hpi issue 44) tickled my fancy.  but apparently there rare.  anyone know anything about them?  is the person who owns flybye on sau?

Also, FLYBYE is now known as TUFGTR and was at the Summernats making 659.8rwhp in HP heroes.

There are also another set of these wheels that look exactly the same but are called Axis - Deep dish at Ozzy Tyres:

I already have VOLK CV PRO's on mine, but will be changing them soon when I revamp the car's paint later this year. Would love some stockers for that "sleeper" look if anyone wants to trade. :P

Hey I have good set r32gtr rims. Look on Unique Autosports site. Under second hand rims. May trade.

I think R34 GT-R rims would look extremely alluring. R33 ones look cool on a 32 too.

Personally, I don't think there are many rims or bodykits that look better on a GT-R than what Nissan intended - the styling is so "right" from the factory.

My favourite wheels are magnesium RS-watanabe RS8's, in either gold or charcoal, the one piece super light ones - but not really the look for a GT-R.... Followed by Work Meister's and R34 GT-R wheels.

    • Unfortunately,  it feels like it's been on the decline for nearly a decade. Especially as wallet racing became popular with them(biggest wallet can pay off a car that wins). It seems like a different mindset kf ownership these days. But, hopefully people like yourself keep some of the skyline scene alive.
    • A bit of data is always good, beats the Facebook experts with their opinions Although the kWs aren't anywhere near what you are after, it should give you a good indication. I have Bosch 1480cc injectors, often called 1650cc (only when run at 4bar). I run mine at 3bar base so I don't thrash the fuel system. Up top, making 437kW with boost dropping, injector duty is at 69% on E80 (might have had some residual 98RON in there)  
    • I have some downtime due to winter, and just wrapped up converting the car over to flex fuel. We don't get E85 at the pump over here in Canada, but I will be running Ignite E90 Race gas. I'll be mixing it with 99-100 RON pump gas and shoot for 50% ethanol content, up to possibly 85% content if there's any noticeable gains. Here's the question. Most I'll ever want to hit is ~600rwkW. I've currently running 1200cc injectors and want to keep them under 90% duty cycle. As per some online injector calculators, I should be good with 1200's well past 600rwkw on E85. As per other calculators, I'll need 1600-2000cc's. The variety is rather amusing.  With you Australians having E85 at the pump, what realistic duty cycles are you seeing in those kW ranges on E50 & E85 on your injectors? Thanks, 
    • No issues here with my PRP gears in an OEM pump housing. I did confirm all housing clearances were to spec prior though. Cheers. 
    • Thread is a bit old but figured id give my input anyway just incase. Have had lots of water problems in my R32 and was getting sick of wet tools in the boot and water filling up half my taillights. I ended up finding that whenever my car had been repainted they didn't reseal the taillights to the body of the car so water was just flowing straight into the boot, this is amplified by all the water around the bootlid being directed down to the taillights so would get pretty wet whenever I washed the car or it rained. You could probably use silicone to seal them to the body but I think from factory they use a roll of automotive grade butyl rubber. Hopefully this helps you if that ends up being how the water is getting in on your car!
