Cheers Mick. I really appreciate that. I didn't want anything done with front bar just wheels and wing. Thank you very much. I was beginning to think there was no love in this section. :D I love the gold colour of the car. thats fantastic. Utes good too, though the ass would be swinging alot more in the pic if it was a ute. :)

I don't think the gold looks all that good on blue. I thought it would. Maybe not those wheels . I'll keep thinking. This is what car looks like now without wing and such. http://www.skylinesaustralia.com/forums/in...showtopic=88791

No worries man, i tell ya on my days off i just have way too much time on my hands hehe. If you do go some gold rims i think they should be completely gold, or maybe gold with a chrome lip, because gold usually doesnt look bad with blue at all. You should take a good pic of your car with good lighting, Im sure with a different set of gold rims it would look choice! the original pic you have there looks like it was taken in overcast weather so you cant see the nice colour it really is - This is my opinion but i think that you ought to get some rims with a nice lip or a dish so you fill out the fenders more - I dont like the flush rims too much, well not on your sorta car anyways

And your car looks great without the wing too, nice

Oh and get a better pic (one taken in sunshine) of your car and some other rims that you have in mind and i will stick'em to your ride so you get a better idea :)

    • Hey I get it. Definitely sounds exciting, but not for me, there is almost no V10 or 12 that I really like. I don't like big engines with high cylinder count. V8s would probably be where I draw the line of "which engine would you use". Specifically an LS7 is a favorite of mine, or the 5.2 Voodoo by Ford.
    • But V12 Skyline. Like, I'm In!   Stay Tuned in the USA are jamming a V12 into a Foxbody at the moment... Just the sound of V10 or V12 is worth that adventure!
    • To put it in perspective; there is just one tuner shop that sells a single turbo kit for the RB26, at least publicly in their shop. Maybe one or two others can offer you a setup if you inquire, but I am not sure. That turbo kit is 16k in parts alone (high quality ones, but still). By the time it's installed, tuned and legalized expect it to cost 25k+. And then you still didn't take into account for any special wishes. I can't imagine legalizing an LS swap for example to be any cheaper. And if you want to legally raise power output by more than 40% of the highest-powered OEM variant of any specific car you'd have to do stress testing on a race track for 2000km. Wildly out of perspective cost and effort wise, especially for just one vehicle. But if you got too much money, I guess you could do it.
    • Yeah, I understand that TÜV is a bitch, but.... cost is not an issue when talking about putting a massive NA (or possibly large + turbo'd) V engine into a Skyline. We do it because it is fun. If mine was a project car and not a daily, I'd be finding some massive engine to put in it. Possibly one of the Toyota V12s that they make into monsters in New Zealand. Engineering is not cheap and easy here either (although definitely easier and cheaper than in Der Vaterland). But anything is possible, and 7L is better than ~2.5L, by about 200%.
