Always loved the GT-R. Only problem now is that I have kids and splurging on such a big purchase is not very wise at least for now

 

What are those wheel specs tbk. Looks EPIC.

Rears on the Grey look great too, not sure about the fronts though. What are the rear wheel specs benben01?

 

Mine are 19x8.5 +48 (with 15mm space to clear bbk, +33) and 19x10.5 +35. My tires are 245/35 and 275/30. Didn't want to go too wide up front since I wanted to be hella functional over hella flush

 

Wheels are 18x10.5 +21 all around. I was running 8mm slip on spacers at the time too, so +13 effectively. 245/40 all around.

 

Damn.

 

Let's do a 2 year bump... Hahaha.

How did I miss this thread?!?!

Bought mine back in Sept 2013

 

I haven't posted a pic since I put springs on, so here's the update:

 

Hey Officer Farva. I recognize that car. It has parked beside mine! I have the red counterpart.

 

 

How many inches did you drop your car carrnutt? It looks great

 

Thanks, man.

I believe it's about 1.5 inches in the front, and 1.7 in the back.

 

Real Carbon Fiber GT Style 69" JDM Racing Rear Back Trunk Spoiler Wing Brackets | eBay

SOOOOO HAPPY I found a pic of an 8 with this wing !!!!!! thank you !!! Solidified my purchase idea!! Any flexing of the trunk ?

I have read that wings with bases mounted not to the extreme sides of the trunk tend to flex the trunk....

My trunk is CBF...

 

first picture of my R3

More pictures to come

 

Does it count if I bought mine as a parts/donor car? lol Picked up last month for $1,700 with a fully intact drivetrain and all wiring and suspension parts. Still hard to believe she went out with only 18,885 original miles (16,800 something confirmed through a local mazda dealer), but everything looks to be in good shape overall as far as the drivetrain goes. I'll be gutting my S1 completely dry and swapping the drivetrain from the R3 along with all wiring to my 04' S1.

*I'm also selling all the suspension parts from the R3 though, i'm going with a complete mazdaspeed suspension and chassis bracing setup instead

 

Bought June 2015 with 60000km (that's like 40000 miles I think...). Shame it did not have the OEM rims but I got used to the enkei and now wouldn't have her any other way!

 

So I bought these, I know they're not R3 seats, but they're close enough I think. Sadly they're not in great shape, but i've talked to a few upholstery shops that said they should be able to get them looking good again and retain the original material

 

Mine is 2010 Aus delivered "GT" similar to "R3" minus the keyless entry

 

I had my badly road-rashed rims resurfaced and powdercoated a dark bronze:

 

Here is my new toy. 2010 R3 with 38000km.

 

Welcome, fellow winterpeger!

Check out the "Winnipeg" thread and post in there! Can't say it's too active these days...

And I see your plates. Who are you with, if you don't mind me asking?

 

I'm honestly not with anyone just showing my support for our Troops and their families.
$30 from each plate goes to the Military Members and families education fund. Seems like a good cause for people who give so much for their Country.
