You have a set of G7s?

Wider and lower? What do you mean?

The G7s are 17x9 1/2, but since they come in 3 piece, for the project car I will be using the skinny lip, and the skinny inner hub that goes on the back, for the front, and use the 2 wider sections for the back. So the fronts will be 8 1/2, and the back will be 10 1/2", so I can stuff a pretty big set of tires in the back.

404 Funny Not Found :dunno:

I want a Set of G7s bad. Although I'd rather have the new style in a 18x10.5 +12 and 17x9.5 +0

3000$ for a set of wheels owns me... that'd 4 times the cost of my car... But Id still do it if I had the money.

The S14/R34 thing is ugly as sin. The white S15 is damn nice.

I like the S14/R34, will I should say I admire the car, since I know it had to take about a million man hours to make the darn thing.

yea body work aint no joke. But i love doing it. Its just tedious. But once you get in the "mode" shit goes by so fast and you dont want to stop.

Those are some nice skylines. The post and yours. A black r32, thats the only other nissan i really really really want right now. I need to go on a summer trip or something out of this damn country so i can buy one and ship the bastard back. This guy at my work said he was in the navy a long long time ago. He had an r32 and some silvia's. He asked me if i knew what drifting was...i was like are you fucking serious. I thought he wouldnt know shit about it. He said they had huge huge huge negative camber. I was like damn thats old school style. And it had to be almost 10 years ago when he was there so i know he isnt making it up. Then his wife came over and started talking about them too cuz she saw my shirt lol. I was like you bastard ass. He doesnt really know about silvia's though lol. Like he wasnt hardcore into the terminology and shit. He saw my 240 and said he had one of those in japan, but the front was different. I was like, wow i think i found someone worth talking too here. So i filled him in a bit on wtf happend to the USDM style 240's lol. Basically he said wow we got shafted those little cars can run over there. I was like yea i know man, we suck. He automatically thought my car was turbo. Im like no the usa sucks. He's like so whats it got a v6 or something. i was like nope, a sucky slow NA 2.4 liter 4 banger. He's like well then i guess you have to turbo it yourself. I was like yep thats the plan. I think he went down memory lane after that lol. It was cool stories none the less.

I just spent the last 2 day wet sanding, and now I am on the course cut. So, I know what you mean by not wanting to stop.

Thanks, I'll post some pics of the car with the molded side skits and fresh paint job. I hope I can finish it tomorrow.

Then I have to go swap another RB26, in my other GTR. Takin those engines out are a bitch, compared to pullin a V8 out of the old muscle cars.

damn if its not to much of a hassle, throw up some more pics of the black 32 if you got any. That is my dream car lol. Call me weird, but i dont need no ferrari. Someday i will get one, some day. I think there relatively cheap to get one over here, compared to a r34 or what not. Just cuz there so old already.

I thought you couldent get the skylines in japan. Because of the dot stuff. Here is a quote from motorex. IS MOTOREX ABLE TO IMPORT SKYLINES TO CANADA?NO, CANADA HAS DIFFERENT STANDARDS. SORRY BUT NO PLANS IN THE FUTURE FOR MOTOREX TO MEET CANADA'S STANDARDS

From what I gather Motorex went backrupt when a couple guys got their cars crushed after finding out it wasnt legalized properly then Sued.

Whatever. Motorex Sucks... there are many other people to get skylines from... Its also in the works for skylines to be legal without modifacation.

I've seen that Z before, OMFG I LOVE IT!!!!!! Oh and in Canada you can import any car that's 15 years or older, but even if it goes through Canada, it's still not legal in the States.

If there weather breaks today, I'll take some pics of her.

As for Motorex, the owner was a cokehead, so needless to say it did not help the buiness. Plus they were doing stuff that Sean did not like, that is why he left.

Sean is trying to get RB in the game, but he has to work so more issues because the gov't change some of their regulations from what I understand.

As for the Ferrari coment, that was the biggest reason my wife beacme a lawyer, so she could afford one. I was in the States like you guys ready to drop a few grand for a S13, and install the S15 headlights, Well I got orders to come over here to England, so for like a year I was researching all that I could on GTRs. My wife keeped tellin me, it still not a Ferrari, and given me crap since it was a Nissan. Like I said, this went on for well over a year and she said that they looked ungly as well.

To make a long story short, I wanted a R33, but the price was way too high, so I found the black R32 in Wales. I drove my S-Trimed Stang with my wife to pick it up. My wife hates the "trailer park trash" Stang, so she said that she would drive the GTR home. Well on that 1 hour trip home, she fell in love with my dream car, and took it from me. I get home and the first thing she tells me when she gets out of the car. " This car drives better than any Ferrari I have ever been in. You need to find another one for you, because she is mine." So, I lost my dream.

We are only the 3rd ownwers, with a documented 45k on the car. The 2nd owner paid $45k for the car in 1998, I paid $12k for in 2002. There is not a squeek or a rattle in the car anywhere.

I bought that Silver one about a year later. That car was a peice of crap. I took the parts I wanted off of it, and turned around and sold it.

They had like 40 cars waiting. I never heard of any getting crushed. I think the feds were looking at letting the owners ship them out, to recoupe some of their money, but I never heard anything on the subject after that.

UHH... when your ballin that hard you dont need Ride Quality.

Also Ride Quality is entirely personal taste I'll be running

8/6kg Springs with 10mm Preload.
Corbeau Revolution Seat
Heim Jointed Everything
Solid Aluminum Subframe Bushings
Welded Differential


Ive ridden in cars with all of that (replace welded with 2way) and it doesnt bother me at all.

When you get old like me, you need a little suspension give :D

As always suspension is a give and take when trying to set it up.
