What's Going On With Everyones Cars?

Buy the rota p45 from Rota aus on facebook, $1099 including delivery for 18's

[toffy]

Nah just saw it on there. Was considering putting a bid on it but decided I probably have too many cars as it is. Looked like a pretty easy repair

Yep , i wasn't going to bid on it either , but i was on there watching something else , if the damage is worse than it looks in the pics i'll probably just wreck it

cheers for the heads up, just checked them out wanted to go 18x9.5 +12 & 18x12 +20

but i dont want to hack my front guards or go wide rear, so thinking i may have to go 9.5 +32 & 10 + 35

as im thinking +12 all round would still need guard work even though mine are allready rolled

[tweetywoof]

Nope! I'm running 18x9.5 +22 front I think, or lower offset, and 18x10 +15 or +10 rears on stock guards, nice amount of poke aswell.. On 225 40 all round..

[Autumn33]

interesting, mines quite abit lower then yours though.

i failed before the fronts would be +25 not +32

they have.

18x9.5 +12, +25

18x10 +12, +35

18x12 +0 +20

so thinking ill need 9.5 +25 fronts & 10 +35 rears

this 33 has 9.5+12 all round and looks mint! but no specs on camber ect

so after working it out on the offset calulator & then getting the trusty ruler out, im thinking i should be able to just get away with the +12's with some more rolling/lipping & stretch

[jangles]

here is + 12 on the rear, +22 on front with 4mm spacers (+18)

bare in mind, the sizes you are looking at are GTR sizes also.

cheers for the link, thinking i may have fudged the calculations, think ill stick to say 9.5+22 and possibly run spacers

Not too much to update. Last monday I put a new water pump, idler bearing/new Bolt and tensioner bearing on the old girl along with a new gates timing belt.

Yesterday arvo I made up my rear wing/boot bracing. very light and holds my weight very easily. I have made up a ally plate that fits nice in the passengers side of the boot to mount the surge tank and pumps/pump mounts to so it goes in and out as one piece. will plaster the rising sun over the tank and plate to mtach the engine =)

I'm at a bit of a cross roads with weight atm. I've sorta came a bit of the way and not quite sure where to draw the line. The head unit and 2 door speakers are in question, door intrusion bars along with door glass, might trade it for lexan... I would love to gut the doors and power windows and just have lexan in bare doors but I also want to keep from the B pillars forward in tact. I really want a carbon boot lid and then mount it on pins/latches and do away with the big factory hinges but that will have to wait as the money needs to go on more important stuff ATM

Got a ally rear diffuser/air guide planned for the rear. will get that underway in the next few weeks. more to aid airflow than provide any sort of extra dwonforce as ATM air can get trapped in the rear bar/boot floor area.

cheers

OMG, so much porn in those pics. Heaps jelly of your aero. If I had it though I'd just go backwards over a curb with it

Swapping Glass for Lexan I think is time to draw the line, skyline glass isn't that heavy anyway! You're better off spending the $$ on petrol and Tyres

[Mr. Untouchable]

its hard Nowelly. I need a new rear screen anyways. And I have spoken to Burgz about getting 2 orders shipped together. should be able to get a rear screen and door screens (and quaters but prob wont use them) in lexan here for 600ish. I was quoted over 300 for an aftermarket rear glass screen.... the door glass is actually kinda heavy. I know the rear isnt.

A nice light motorsport battery is def on the cards later in the year after the important stuff is out of the way.

[zoidbergmerc]

$600!!!

I thought there would have been an extra zero on that, ffffffffff**k me, do it now.

[Mr. Untouchable]

haha yeah really its not huge coin. not when your already up for a rear screen anyway. its usually about 700 but if we can get two kits at the same time should save a bit on postage, shipping 2 kits compared to one shouldnt make shit all difference so should come in around the 600- maybe 650 tops. I prob wouldnt of bothered if I didnt need any but since I need the rear, kinda a 'may aswell while i'm there' thing lol

[zoidbergmerc]

Do it, right now, go go go go go go.

[woolls]

looking good Jack
