Finally took some pictures of my car. Here's what's done so far...

-19" Ray's A34 Nismo 19x8.5 wheels w/ Nexen 3000 245/35s
-Tokico Illuminas
-Tein H-techs
-17* Timing Advance
-NWP Block Plate
-NWP Spacers
-K&N Drop in w/ GAB
-Ambered day-running lights

To come pretty soon...
-Stillen classic front lip
-Vibrant FSTB
-Possibly headers

 

Three more...

 

looks clean but i dislike the rims. i don't think they flow with the car...maybe slammed with a body kit they would look better?

 

so thats how my car would look with the nismo rims. my friend has those on his 6gen and i was wondering how it would look on my car.

 

guess you really wanted to post the same comment in two different threads huh

To the O.P, your the second person that has gotten the right tire size for those rims.

 

Looks good. Just needs lowered a weeee little bit (see SpooledVQ35's thread for examples ).

 

Looks good, curious to see how it looks with the lip. If you haven't gotten a RSB yet GET ONE. How the throttle respone and power after the engine mods?

 

clean wheels and lovely drop.

 

Clean max....i like the rims, maybe just a little bit lower and they will look better...

 

lol @ bodykit comment

looks good man

 

Not a fan of the amber lights, but otherwise the car is flawless. The wheels match very well, and your plans to add a lip kit will set it off nicely.

 

Thanks all. Yeah, I'm kind of wishing the front sat just a tad lower...there's still some wheel gap there that I'd like to take care of. I might put S-techs up front, who knows right now.

PulsarGTS, my timing was actually retarded a degree to 13* (must of been from previous owner) and so I actually bumped up 3* which was nice, that, plus the plate and spacers made I've more than regained my low-end, shifting seems so much more easier to do (car doesn't want to stall at all), and the throttle response is quicker with out a doubt. Very happy with the money spent. Can't wait to move on to big mods (headers, cams, pulleys). I'll keep you guys updated.

 

Looks very clean.

 

Thanks man. That is due to Liquid Ice. Works wonders and highly recommended.

Anyone have an idea on what it will cost to get a Stillen Classic lip painted?

 

I got quoted $260.

 

looks nice, I would tuck em

 

cant really tuck the wheels with springs
And if he did, there would be rubbing with this tire size...

 

This is correct. I MAY be able to go another inch if that. The wheels are 19x8.5 w/ 245 series tires, so I don't have much play width to work with. I know I wouldn't of been able to do S-techs all around, this is for sure.

 

I dont know if you checked out my thread but i have the same set-up as you. However i am lowered on tein ss coilovers. I am at my limit as far as ride as well unless I want for the tires to rub. Negative Camber might help with that issue but being slammed or having the tires tuck will not work.

 

looking good man. i was planning on buying a set of nismo's. But I received a great deal for my 350z rims. So i bought those instead.

 

Looks good man, i like the rims i think they're very clean. If you ever swap out the front to s-techs maybe you'll sell those front h-techs to me

 

I have to admit, the car looks very clean with the 350z's on there. Nice choice.

Thanks man. I'll make sure to keep you in front for dibs if I ever sell my front H-techs.

Do you guys think it would look weird with S-techs up front and H-techs in the rear? Will my nose sit too low?

 

Looks clean

 

wheels are nice!

 

WTF? Trying to get that post count up?

 

it should never cost more then $100 for a lip painted and installed.

 

It's pretty dependent though. Just like paintjobs, there's Maaco, and then there's paint jobs where pricing is down right rediculous...it's all a matter of how detail oriented and amount of quality you want out of it.

And thanks for the comment 25gtrbo

 

This is true, and because of the pearl on the car they want to charge a premium. I'm still gonna shop around of course. Sideskirts and lips usually cost about the same too. And this same shop only wanted $125 per sideskirt for 3p0 Red on my old car.

 

Man those wheels looks awesome!

 

looks great MIK3...cant wait to see how it looks with the Stillen front lip...

 

Thanks man, there's no beating Ray's Forged for the price I got them for.

Thanks! As am I my friend, as am I.
