    Ah I was gonna say something about those wheels too! I love the look on the GTR, nice fitment. Will you be buying another set for the 265s?

    As for Flywheel torquing its 142-152 N-m or 105-112ft-lbs. Make sure you coat the threads in oil.

    Nice choice on the OS Giken. I have a twin plate OS clutch and its great. Its as stiff as a brake pedal and your left leg will hurt a bit but you get use to it

    Take some pics of the install!

    Would you need a roll with 265? If not maybe I should look into finding some bolt-on spacers.

    edit: Btw, I was trying to get a look that turns out you have spot on, that's why I'm comparing my setup to yours

    Damn thought so I bought some x9 +27 recently as they had discontinued the +17s version. Hopefully the 255 tire will fill the gap a bit. I'll just have to wait and see how it's gonna look this summer.

    -Perfect stance
    -Perfect offset
    -Love the yellow lows

    Good luck with the build, love your GTR's looks. What's your rim width and offset?

    Ok so I have everything now I'm just waiting for my flywheel bolts and the clutch will be going in. Anyboy know the torque spec on the flywheel bolts?

    Also ordering Nistune and will be getting it dyno tuned shortly after. TunedbyBill is who i'm going with. He was recommended to me by supra owners including an owner of a 1000whp mkIII supra...I would really like to get John Reed to tune it at PSI in Oregan but getting ahold of the guy is nearly impossible.

    Stay tuned for the clutch install plus the new dyno sheets! I'm so excited I dont wana wait any longer!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    Stay tuned for lots of pictures of clutch install....hopefully be doing it at the end of march. Perfect time for the weather to start comin around..fingers crossed!

    Also going to start planning a road trip very soon for the gtr and the supra that was in the video. Any input on a destonation would be awesome. Looking to go either down to the states or maybe even cross canada! We'll see how much the fuel goes up and how much the bank has in it at that point LOL.

    It sounds a lot different with a good tune....it was untuned at that point and he had just got it all together and just wanted to break it in a little before getting the tune done.

    And thank you

    Car is back together now.....had one mild issue with stainless braided fuel line that was connected to my fuel filter it was broken and splashed fuel all over in the garage .....other than that the car is running abosultely normal...throttle response feels better than normal... I cleaned the crap out of the throttle bodies and hoped for not having a high idle because of it and it is running good....Dont know if i have any leaks from the plenum or throttle bodies yet but I will be checking that out tomorrow.

    For the debate of taking off the ridge inside the throttle bodies for causing a high idle....this didnt affect my car one bit so I wouldnt be too worried about that being an issue to other cars but who knows...

    Currently trying to find a good set of air filters for my car....still have the 2 maf sensors on right now and dont know what kind of filters I have on but they are destroyed and need some new ones...ordered up a set of K&N filters but have to modify the mafs and cut the end off so they will work ( end that has the 4 bolt mount for filters ) Hopefully it goes good and dont crack them.

    Clutch should be here soon waiting for it to get here from Forcefed.....went with the Exedy Twin Carbon...heard good things about it so I decided to try it out.. Havnt seen any people using it on the forum yet so I will let you guys know how it is! Hopefully get it and install it in the next 2 weeks

    Yup all the way to 2000...but I wanted to be a little bit different so I did go with more of a brushed look....I didnt polish it at all so just wanted to do a little different than everybody else that has gone with the polished look....I already applied 3 layers of clear coat on top of this and im pretty happy with the outcome!
