Selling these rims, need to free up shed space

Tyres good for drift, 2 ok for road use,

Rims are 17x8 front 17x9 rear, with all wheel nuts

Asking $500, with a pair of pretty well had it RE55S Semi Slicks chucked in as well (one needs puncture repair)

Spray 'em black, white, whatever! Would be a great set of track/drift wheels

hi do the rims have any flat spots or bad chunks missing from the edges looks like they have some gutter rash have u got a closeup of the worst damage

what is the offset please I like these sparcos my car had them in 18s but wrong offset I am keen for these if the offset is suitable and the damage is repairable.

Hi,

the two rears have a bit of scraping, mainly from using semi-slicks as they have no rim protector.

Offset is 38 I think, I will have to check.

Do you have GTR or GTSt? Don't think they would be suitable for GTR, I believe you have to keep rim sizes the same front and back other wise you stuff up the workings of the 4WD

Will post up offsets when I find out what they are.

If this gives you any indication, the rears just fit inside the rear guards, same with the fronts

Will post up them up when I find out

Hi Chris Still waiting for the offsets are the wheels still for sale?

will transfer the $$ to your account today if you are selling.

Hey mate,

I had a look on the weekend, couldn't find much on there. From memory there was a sticker saying they where 32 or 38, can't quite remember, but it looks like it has come of when they where on the car

Is there any other way I can measure the offset on them?

^^^Offset is distance from centre of rim to the surface/flange of the rim that bolts onto the hub. (sorry can't explain better)

So the higher (+'ve offset) figure will mean the rim sits more inside the guard, and for lower or -'ve offsets opposite applies.

So a rim width of 8" (200mm), halfway/centre will be 100mm, likewise centre of 9" (225mm) rim will be 112.5mm.

Measure the distance (mm) from outside edge of the wheel towards centre (width wise), ie edge of rim to the surface of the rim that will bolt onto the hub, now subtract this distance from either 100mm (for 8" rim) or from 112.5mm (for 9" rim) and this should give you your offset.

Alternatively, measuring from the "inside" edge of rim to the same surface as above where hub bolts on, then subtract either 100mm (8" rim) or 112.5mm (9" rim) from that distance and it should be the same value as the first method.

Best way I can explain it.

theres an easy way to measure the offset

get a straight edge at least 20'' long [a brickies level is perfect] lay it across the rim at the back and measure the distance to the back of the mounting flange then lay it across the front of the rim and measure the distance to the back of the mounting flange, the difference between the 2 measurements is the offset, you can get a close enough measurement even if the tyres are mounted and the straight edge lays on the tyrepost-23827-1141631231.jpg

    • http://calfinn.com.au/product/1500kg-standard-trolley-jack-cj-2t-c/1500kg-standard-trolley-jack-cj-2t-c   I have this and fits under a S3 33 GTR with no issues. Purchased in 2009 and not one issue. It was $950 back then. Not cheap but something so important isn’t worth cheaping out on.
    • Just trying to get my head around this. At 5psi of boost, you turn on your wmi pump, and then you're using a 3000cc injector, to allow flow upto the actual engine, where you have your 6x200cc injectors and a 500cc injector. If the above is correct, what advantage are you obtaining by having the 3000cc injector blocking flow, is this just incase a line breaks between that injector and the motor you can stop flow immediately? Or are the 6x200cc and 500cc less injectors and just spray nozzle?
    • Welcome! New member myself, but I had an R33 back in 2002. Best advice I could give, based on my experience: if you're running the factory turbo, be very conservative with boost. I made the mistake of just fiddling around with the boost controller and cranking the boost for fun, and the end result was my intake pipes popping off frequently from the constant deluge of oil that was being blown into the recirc by the stressed-out turbo, which itself was siphoning oil from the engine and farting it out both sides of its centre bearing (or something to that effect). If I could do it all again, I would have gotten a new turbo and had a tune dialled in professionally and then just left it alone! Funny you mention the metal shavings in the gearbox, as I had the same thing - the probe plug (magnetic drain plug, essentially) would come out caked with shavings. At least it was doing its job. Not sure if that's just sacrificial wear and part of the deal, or if my gearbox was shagged, but I wasn't abusing it. Enjoy the R33 - they're a dying breed, and if they weren't $35k+ on CarSales in Queensland, I might have picked up one of those again, instead of the 370GT I own now (though I'm loving the 370GT, that big 3.7L V6 just hits different).
    • Howdy folks. I owned an R33 back in 2002, which was thoroughly beyond my capacity (financially speaking) to maintain/insure, so we parted ways in 2004. Fast forward 21 years (to literally yesterday, in fact) and I'm now the proud owner of a 2007 V36 370GT. I'm happily surprised by how much power the VQ37VHR makes, compared to the RB25DET, considering the latter is turbocharged. I had planned to add a turbo at some point but I'm on the fence about whether I'll even need it (though I do love the sudden onset of extra torque). Any other 370GT owners around the traps, I'd love to hear about your experiences with this car (good and bad).
