Hey Rusty the car looks good man. I did not realize how big the back tires were. What is the biggest you can get on stack nismo wheel,19x10.5.

If I may the widest is 305. But its a stretch.. 295 is better.

Rusty has a 12” diameter wheels. I just dont know about his bonner! Lol

I was thinking 295 will be safe with out robin. 305 will be nice.

You can go as wide as a 315 or 325 on a 10.5" rim without any issues.

But that would be out of recommend specs Bob but who cares! Lol

LOL, they fit as there is a whole thread on running 325 rear and 285 fronts on Nismo wheels.

Yeah. That's the widest you can go on those width rims.

19x12 on the rear.

That's another story. :eek:

:iagree:

What SPL parts did you use for the rear? I am only lacking the Traction Arms and the solid bushings. Did you replace all the bushings on the rear spindle?

I replaced almost everything. The only thing I didn't replace is the mid links. I will replace them once I decide on which coilovers I go with. Because of the width of the 345's. I don't have too much clearance at the top of the inner tire and shock. Depends if I can run a true coilover or not.

I did replace the all bushings on the rear knuckle.

Here's my thread on the install.

I searched for that thread and couldn't find it. Thanks for the link. Go figure.

How does it ride? Is it noisey? I am looking at finishing off my SPL catalog.

The noise is about the same. The suspension moves easier. The ride feels more complainant, and tighter. No longer feel movement in a corner. Make sure you get everything tight, or you will have a squeak.

I have it all now that I went with true type cool overs. It squeaks less without the spring buckets. It is going to squeak some because metal on metal and....because racecar!

I have some rattle with the SPL Midlinks. The Aragosta shocks are too long. I am 1/4in. away of getting 1/2in. of preload in the rear. So on a bumpy road I have some spring rattle at slow speeds. Oops, kinda like squeeky brakes. I don't give a rip. LOL

Added another track decal to the rear window. This time, it's Deals Gap, Tail of the Dragon. :tup:

Tracks that I've done a trackday at with the Z. :driving:

A collection. I need to add a few to mine. IN due time.

I want to add a few more. :driving:

Where can I get backing plate material for 3" ducts? Looks like I will need to make some.

Here's a couple of links to check out.

Spooler. I would wait until you have the TT kit installed before installing the brake cooling kit. Because of the placement of the brake ducts and hose routing with the intercooler and piping. You will have a lot more stuff in the way now. Since MA Motorsports is doing the build. Let them do the 3" hose routing.

LOL, I already thought about that and them making my backing plates too. Those would be some expensive backing plates though. I could reduce it to 2" and use the Stillen kit also.

Got my canards from FE Designs. They look really good. :tup: It willbe about 2 weeks before I can install them :(

:tup:

Installed the canards. :tup: The Nismo looks like it has chubby cheeks. :rofl2:

And................here's my ooooops. :mad: This is what I get for being tired, and in a hurry. :shakes head: Installed the top canard on the bottom and the bottom canard on top. :mad:

OUCH!!!:eek:

Yeah. :facepalm:

Just tell folks is all about cooling and those holes a strategically placed to provide air directly to the oil cooler.

They're cooling holes for my windshield washer bottle. :icon14:

Look at the bright side, at least you didn't drill into that. :stirthepot:

Didn't about it until I went to put the nuts on the bolts. :eek:

Ugg, Did you just do it on one side or both? Do you have them on correctly now?

Just screwed u the right side. Everything is good now. :tup:

:happydance:

Thanks Russ

:iagree:

How do you like them?
