I hate those Advan wheels you posted. There's a few nice Advan wheels but these three-spoke ones look ugly as!!

Yeah it is isn't it...but with this ridiculous camber one must wonder how can you go fast?

Don't use any of the stuff from Bunnings. Look weird!

It's pretty crazy actually. It's quite common in Japan. Do it hear and get defected, right?

Hi fellas, In Japan, some people love the Oni-Kyan look aka Demon Camber. This is where the camber of the wheels stick out and fold semi-flat almost looking as if it ran over a huge rock and the camber arms have broken, but the Japanese love this look. I was wondering if anyone in Aus is into this stuff and whether the damn car is still driving?? http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=H11E0zwI7QA

Hi mate, I personally think you should not do it because the rear of the R35 is somewhat more rounder and fatter (more so like a R33 if you will) whereas the rear of a R34 is more boxer and squarer so if you put the R35 wing on the R35 it will look odd. Also the wing it itself is kind of rounder and thicker. The R34's almost GT look is there to be balance out it's squarer rear. Just my 5c but it's your car so give it a shot if you can afford to get the holes in your R34 fixed up and the boot repainted if it does not suit. Bugger it, instead going R34 rear with R35 front!!

I clean example of a R33 GTS-T. R33's done have to all be GTR's...GTS-T's are very nice too...it's what you do to it. Keep it simple and clean like this one. Good job mate.

Hi fellas, I know a few threads have touched about this topic but never discussed in length so hence this thread... Now the question is, how do you tell if a Rays Engineering rim is genuine or not? I mean, with the obvious copies such as the Varrstoen, Rota and other replicas aside, how can you tell if a rim is a copy or genuine? I'll give you an example, I recently bought a set of second-hand TE37SL's from a seller. They are said to have been stripped, prepared and then repainted and look great. They also have the "Rays Co" engraved on the back of the hub holes and the Rays sticker behind the wheels can still be sign partially intact on many of the wheels, but the usual "Rays Engineer" and "Made in Japan" engraving on the front lip are not visible. So does this make my wheels still genuine? The interesting thing is a few of my mates have TE37's and SL's and some have the above engravings on the wheel lips whereas many others do not. These people are reputable Jap car enthusiasts so I don't they would buy copies (not to say there's anything wrong with replicas) but the point I am trying to make is, how the heck can you tell if they are originals or not? I did some research and found that apparently original Rays wheels have the hub holes slightly out of line to the spokes which is what my wheel has. So how else to know? My wheels even come with genuine Rays wheel stems/caps and the lip TE37SL sticker and all of the above genuine signs so does this make them 100% genuine? I am told when repairing wheels, they need to be re-tooled, stripped and painted over? What does all this have to do with destroying the two engravings discussed above? I know a lot of people want to know the difference to please shed some light on this topic fellas. My wheels look like these without the usual engravings but has the original SL stickers, wheel valve stem/caps etc (pics courtesy of Nismoid Ash, ChrisGTR_25 Chris & Google): .

Both the TE37 and the LMGT4 are great Japanese wheels. However, I personally think the TE37 looks better on most Skylines.

HA ha ha ha....you make a very good point...like we spend so much effort and money making our cars look hot...when we hardly never see it from the inside...I agree the inside is boring...but I find it very tough...I like the simple yet tough look....

I agree 350Z wheels look like plastic chopsticks...really ugly!!!! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9Z00HHCB630&feature=endscreen&NR=1

6K is best in my opinion.

Thanks mate. Never knew this...never doubted Ash's but thought I'll raise the question. Cheers mate

Ash, I know the TE37's were recently stripped and resprayed but how come the inner slip does not have "made in Japan" and "Rays Engineering" on them? I ask this as a few of my mates got their rims repaired and resprayed too and these items were gone - why is that? Can't the repairer maintain the wording?

BUMP.

Anyone interested. I'm open to all offers.

Bump. Price dropped to $1,400.

Yeah fair enough mate. Cheers

Why don't you have another look up on Ebay before you open you mouth mate (taken off as sold to me). Look at my sales feedback before you accuse me bullshitting my fellow SAU members.

I will be picking them up this week. Was going to put them on my GTR but have opted not to so they deserve a better home.

Hi fellas, I am selling a pair of R33 GTR Xenon Headlights in good condition but is slightly yellowed and will require a good clean but otherwise no cracks or chips and is in full operational condition. I am after $2,000 ONO for a quick sale. Prefer pick up but can post at buyer's expense. Please SMS me on 0401 966 954 or PM.

Each to their own, but Clarke Rubber and Autobarn mesh are no-on's !!

If you bought of a guy on Ebay that sells them for around $500 delivered, they are like you honestly stated, reconditioned flowed ones...which to be fair, still is 550cc flowed, but is not brand new and is not a Nismo genuine product. Very good performance otherwise and you're asking price is fair. Good luck with the sale mate.

Is this brand spanking never-opened new??

LOL. Gotta love the Jap Whalers
