My (soon to be) new wheels! *Pictures on page 2*

[Taurine]

Wow, long time no post..

Got your wheels on yet Dorifto?

Have you seen the price? What gave you that idea - we got them on there very easily. Wasn't quite a bolt-up, but no major dramas. Old guards off, new guards on - 2hrs...

In all my Skyline research and years of browsing Skyline forums I've always read that it would never work..

Do you go on D1NZ or SDU?

Like I said - bolt off bolt on job. I think the indicator brackets had to be "modded" a bit, but other than that no probs. People been givin' you the bum steer there mate...

I'm registered on both but don't post all that often... I've never asked personally, just from what other people have asked..

Do you go to any D1NZ events? - spectate or compete.

Gram Lights suckas. Gram Lights.










Oh and new paint as well! 👍

 

[ferrari_chris]

Very nice dude, very nice.

That paint looks good, and those wheels look great in gold.

Did you get any center caps with them?

 

[Dorifto]

No, but I may buy some in the future.

I HATE YOU! that's like my s13 dream car EXACTLY. black without the spoiler and the gold gram lights (and without popups, but whatever). So it's one of the variations, anyway.

I wonder how black or silver or anthracite would look. BBS LM2's, too. But aside from that, you got the right lip width and everything. very very nice.

You, sir, have extraordinarily good taste. 👍

 

[Dorifto]

Thanks very much sir.

 

[Omnis]

lol. Yeah, i got kind of riled up there.

By the way, that skyline is insaaaane.

 

[a6m5]

Yes. I envy you also(just a little). 👍

Gorgeous wheels....Even more gorgeous Silvia.

WHY!? Why can't we get the beatiful Silvia?!
The S14 is great, but the S13 we have just isn't the same.

I think it's an 240SX with a trunk. I'm sure I saw the popup headlights.

 

[Dorifto]

I'm from California, I'm just a huge poser! Actually no the trunk emblems were on when I bought the car so what the hell. The Silvia logo looks damn clean in black.

 

[a6m5]

First time I saw something like that done was back in early 90's. I saw 240SX with an Silvia nameplate. I got so excited, I started chasing it on I-5 bridge between Oregon and Washington. After finding out that it was a 240SX, I felt like I was ripped off.

 

[Taurine]

Are those dents in the bonnet?

Something makes me think that the rear need to be a bit lower, but it's a welcome change from your previous wheels for sure 👍

 

[Jay]

Yep great improvement 👍, would be even better if they had just alittle more dish, but doesnt matter.

 

[Dorifto]

This is just the second day everythings been put on. The paint still needs to be wet sanded and buffed, but we can't do anything for two weeks, there are still a few dents in the car (but I really couldn't care less), and I'm probabaly going to drop it about an inch all the way around.

 

[ferrari_chris]

... and I'm probabaly going to drop it about an inch all the way around.

👍 👍 👍

That will make it look really good - nice choice. Are you getting new suspension for that? What type?

Also, are you planning on drifting it at all, or are you going to be a good boy and drive with saftey and courtesy...

 

[Omnis]

by the way, I thought it was stripped of all badges until I saw the closeups. I don't care if it's a silvia or a 240sx. they're the same chasis and you either have the front clip or you don't. I much prefer the static lights over the pop ups though.

 

[Dorifto]

Well as you all know, it already has the SR20DET, so it's kinda close to being one....kinda. Whatever I really don't care.

Also, Ferrari_Chris, I have Tein Flex coilovers with the EDFC, I just have it riding a little high so I don't scrape everything.

Very cool...

 

[Dorifto]

It's flexolicious.
