One step closer to widebody R32 :D

[funkymonkey]

Well my wallet's a whole lot emptier now, after I just bought these rims to go onto the R32...

For those interested, its a 18" x 9" with a +3 offset in front and a 18" x 10" with a -9 offset at the back, which should hopefully allow me to fit them onto the R32 hubs without any rubbing etc, and with a couple of 10mm spacers should see em sit flush with the wider guards.

Now I need to find someone who can fix up the rims (restore the clear coat and give it the polish of its life). Anyone able to reccomend companies?

nice woks!

diiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiish

There appears to be an acceptable level of dish.

Carry on.

PS did anyone ever see the Gemballa at Duttons? We went last year and checked it out - the DISH on the rears was supreme...

An acceptable GTR namesake, methinks

[funkymonkey]

dish seems to be the new age rice... ah well... its the only shit that fits my car and fills out widebody guards.

Now if only I can get all the f**ktards that advertise yahoo auction rims on NS and SAU to quit bidding against me, I'd have gotten it for half the price I paid.

[inark]

LMAO good luck.

should look good when its all put together.

[INASNT]

Is this going onto your R32 with the rb25???

Man u have been building this thing for agesssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssss

[ABuSD]

Who makes wide guards for 32? Or is it Bumble B spec?

[always_me]

id love to find someone who has a wide body kit for r32 gtr

[funkymonkey]

BN Sports now make the same kit to fit R32 GTR guards as well. I've got the widebody kit for the GTS shape.

GTR:

mine:

Denham, yeah project's been stagnant due to financial commitments in other areas of my life after allt he R32's a daily driver. Plus I got the AE86 now which is being built for track use so I'm not gonna go over the top with the R32, just a kit and a moderately powered engine (which is why I'm selling the TD06-25G turbo kit as I don't want 500kw at 6000 RPM).

Why not?!?

PS I like the way BN sports decided to black out the background but not what was showing through the side and back windows haha

[funkymonkey]

too much lag/power for a streetable daily driver. I'll go for a GT2540 or soemthing on the RB25, should make enough power to keep me happy.

[predator]

yeah, its an interesting tint on the windows isn't it

thats seems like the way things are going. .sounds like in vic you have to have a dedicated track car, and a shitbox/death/pollution machine for street these days.

[funkymonkey]

QLD's not that far behind anymore if the monkey's on the coast keep it up, they're introducing confiscation rules for hoons now aren't they?

[daler32]

confiscation has been around for bout 2 years now i think dont quote me on that but one of my mates in mackay was first to have his car done in qld for it about 2 yrs ago lol

[SLYSX]

Now if only I can get all the f**ktards that advertise yahoo auction rims on NS and SAU to quit bidding against me, I'd have gotten it for half the price I paid.

Bad yahoo prices for things have gone through the roof now every 2nd monkey has started a business selling yahoo parts, KUNTS

[funkymonkey]

yeah shits me when I see a set of rims for 70,000 Yen buy it now (Just under $1000, shipping etc should come to $500 max) and then I come on SAU and I see someone advertise them for $2600 landed. And worse still they don't even include the other 2 photos of it showing dents and scratches.

ah well, if you're dumb enough to buy off em you ought to get ripped off.

[ABuSD]

Thats tuff! Shoulda known BN, i think it looks alot better with a GTS-t bonnet, if u had a gtr and did this u would be able to put a gts bonnet on it wouldnt u?

All the best! Make sure u post up progress pix!

[fReak32]

hey monkey, ive been told you r getting the kit for the 32 copied, im looking for a wide body kit and cant find one anywhere for a 32 gts-t if u get it copied send me a message bro. cheers

I AGREE 100% Shan, it seems alot of sellers in the import parts business via yahoo auctions are quoting alot higher margins on the landed prices... so much that it really put me off. I'd rather just buy new stuff for a few hundred more. pffft

[R31Nismoid]

yeah, and notice the bad pics dont get shown, those wheels would cost $3000 by the time they are on your car

hardly worth it
