adam, you just solved my tyre dillemas... I was trying to figure out what 225/40/18's would look like on 9.5J wheels. They look mint. hehe time to chuck em on the cef.

Ended up getting 215/40/18's on the front 8.5J wheels, and 225/40/18's on the rear 9.5J wheels. just gotta roll the guards (next saturday morning) to tuck the wheels in and the cef's gonna be riding dirty.

That's my mate zac, he was just chilling and checking out my dish.

TonyL, as much as I would like it to be laying rails, you are dead right about road clearance.

I don't really care for scraping over speedbumps and up driveways, but I think it could come down just a little more.

lol some of those proton conversions are totally thinking out of the box, esp the R33 and S15 conversion kits. next time i go to malaysia i'm gonna have to go see those nutbags about some fibreglass parts.

i'm actually diggin the r34 front on the ceffy... it does even up the front with the high boot... all the other r34 front conversions use the standard ceffy height for the front, and consequently end up making it droop too low. this one keeps it up high and it looks fuckin awesome. I'd do the front conversion and leave the rest of the car ceffy style tho instead of makin it a wannabe 34. i suppose in MY you could rock it, but in AU that would get you laughed at.

Counting down the start to the race in the second pic....against a truck :D
lol that's how the ceffies roll in QLD... we drag trucks yo.

Haha, the pic was actually taken in Sydney. My mate in his turbo Patrol was revving it up at the lights, all for laughs. Lol

    • It is possibly 55 degrees for the Nismo version. I had a look through the manual and the stocker has a breakaway torque of 2.5 to 3.5kgm. Supposedly the Nismo LSD goes down to 5kgm when worn in but it is pretty grabby even with very little throttle. Worse when cold. So I guess you have three things. 1. Shims. 2 Friction plates 3. Cams Would think shims would be the easiest but Ive no clue how many tenths of a mm shim thickness change equals how many kgm torque. Also not sure if the Nismo friction plates are similar/different to stock or if they are the most of the source of the diff being angry. Think I can write off the Nismo rebuild kit for the standard diff as not being what I want.  
    • Yeah, it was a bit of confusion with me, I rang and asked if they had a boot for a soft top, and then the paint shop when they rang and were asked if it had a hard top on it, which it does, just not a PRHT....LOL Meh, whilst frustrating for all concerned it isn't a war stopper and should be a thing of the past in a week or two In other N/A related news, car is booked in at the end of the month for the cams, springs, retainers, harmonic balancer and retune  I might even pull the lazy arse card and get them to do a full service on it whilst it is there
    • Factory LSD is supposedly a 2 way with a very conservative cam. If you've already tried adding friction modifier to the diff oil and it still locks up too much for your liking you might want to adjust the ramp rate on the cam to be more like OEM instead of reducing initial torque even further. People claim the 8 kgf-m disc kit for the OEM LSD is still very streetable but I've never been able to compare everything side by side on my own.
    • Oh man, at least it sounds they've accepted they stuffed up and not put it back on you...could see some confusion if they asked if it had a hardtop or not, and you've answered truthfully but maybe not answering their real question which is what roof did it have from the factory! Glad your keeping it N/A 2.5
    • Nah, I much prefer colour matched Talking about colour matching stuff, the new/used boot lid turned up, all painted up perfectly......aaaannnndddd, it's for a power retractable hard top, not a soft top.....LOL They are now sending a boot to fit a soft top.....,  whilst frustrating, life is like that sometimes, sometimes you just need to dodge, duck, dip, dive and, ummm, dodge.
