Finally got myself some new shoes, previously had r32 gtr rims, which fitted terribly.. have small spacers fitted in the pics below and they were still sunken and looked crap. Also have a new front bumper since i last posted pics... Before: Uploaded with ImageShack.us Uploaded with ImageShack.us After (phone pics, camera is stoofed): Uploaded with ImageShack.us Uploaded with ImageShack.us Uploaded with ImageShack.us Uploaded with ImageShack.us Uploaded with ImageShack.us Had the bumper on for a while, but got the wheels last week.. Specs are 18 x 9.5 +20 all round, have 235/40's fitted atm, eventually will put some 255s on the rear though. They are Rota Grids, i originally wanted TE37's although i am pretty happy with these, and i doubt my car will ever see the track so they should be fine. Need to roll my rear guards (anyone know of someone who does a good job in perth? preferably SOR but not that big of an issue) and might lower it a bit more. But yes, pretty happy with it atm though! :br:
Anti - Hopefully i'l get around to lowering it tomorrow! Got coils so its just a matter of jacking it up and adjusting them.. Haha yeah Rom, when i seen you at Rising Sunday the first thing you mentioned was that i had the same front bar as you
Cheers! Haha yeah i read that thread on how excited he was about getting his Should have polished it up so it was more noticable!
ohh man, I really fkn hate rotas. looks good none the less dude, red and black do the job everytime !
same here. at that height i reckon you could run a fatter tyre than a 235 and it wouldn't rub since there's plenty of space between the guard and the tyre. 235 on a 9.5" wheel is too stretched IMO and traction could be improved especally putting some 255s at the very least on the back.
come home already mike haha, i miss the tech days of you all dressed up in shirts lmao. agreed, dump the shit out of it, or add some bigger tyres and make use of 4x4 spec !
The Rotas look good dude. Nice colour for a red car too. I'm fairly certain your old wheels aren't GT-R rims though? At that offset they just look like regular GTS-T wheels to me.
Yeah probly will get rid of the old rims, pretty sure they are gtr rims... well that what i was told when i got the car anyway, just google'd them and they both look pretty similar anyway, well whatever they were i didn't like them Ahhh new i would cop it a bit for getting rota's, doesn't really bother me though, still looks good! Going to eventually Black out the fogs/indicators, and wrap the two strips on the roof in some black vinyl.. Black Mesh for the front bar and probly even a "Ztoy roof spoiler" (or whatever they're called). At uni atm so even the simplist of jobs will take me ages because im lazy. Well looks like i'm dumping it then, hopefully i can get down my driveway when i get back to Perth What happened to your bar Rom? hit something or just fell apart? Before i got mine fitted i thickened up the fibreglass a bit... its only a matter of time before it get destroyed though, doesn't take much.
i scrape it the smallest bit or nudge it on a driveway/speedbump and it cracks bad. I have spent almost triple the original cost on it fixing it, im starting to get very pissed off with it. Hope i can find a urethane mould somewhere.
New Wheels! -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Finally got myself some new shoes, previously had r32 gtr rims, which fitted terribly.. have small spacers fitted in the pics below and they were still sunken and looked crap. Also have a new front bumper since i last posted pics... Before: The Reason why your old wheels diden't fit properly is because they were R32 GTS-t wheels, not GTR ones witch sit nicly on a 300zx.
Had to raise it ;( once i move like midyear il dump it again.... have underground parking and the driveway is far to steep... couldnt get out once i did it haha... still need to roll my rears... to much scrub... might give it a go myself, how'd you find it? not too bad orr...
