Okay, so in this last set of pics, you are using a 25mm rear spacer and a 15mm front spacer? Looks very nice. That's a perfect amount of offset.

Was there anything special to do to install those spacers? Or do they just slide onto the factory lugs? Since you basically just dropped 25mm of useable length off the factory lugs, do you have to install longer lugs? I've never used spacers, so I don't really know what's involved.

yes.... in this last set, the car was with 15mm at the front and 25mm at the rear....

There is nothing special that you need to do to install the spacers, simply bolt onto the hub and secure them on! that's all!

I don't need to use any longer nuts as the spacer run independant lugs... you can be able to see that in the pic... The spacer is just bolted on to the original lugs and you just bolt the wheel on the spacer's lugs... as simple as that!

hope that helps!

cheers,

richie

Thumbs up Full Body Kit

Your ride is super sweet! I've installed the NISMO Rear Wing and hope to be able to complete the full kit early next year.

Love the car!

I also have the full - Nismo body kit.

I am very interested in the piece you call the Rubber Lower Lip.
I do not have this nor have I seen it advertised. Sounds similar to the rubber piece I had on the OEM bumper that helped prevent running up over curbs and such.
Can you give more details?

By the way, I just won the NISMO Award at the Z Car Club Association International Convention. The President of NISMO -Japan and the President of NISMO - US awarded it.

I got the rubber lip from Japan personally, I saw this part in Nismo online catalog.... so I don't know where about can you be able to order it outside japan.... you can try all the online shopping stores first, such as japanparts.com, guess they will love to help you up!

cheers,
