R34 GTR Wheels on R33 GTS-t

[borry]

Im in the market of purchasing some wheels for my R33 GTS-T. I particularly like the looks of the R34 GTR wheels. I played around with Adobe Photoshop and cut+pasted the wheels onto my car and it looked awesome, especially loved howl the titanium/gold suites my black duco.

Does anyone know if these wheels will fit on my car?

Ive got a 96 GTS-T SerII.

Thanks!

hrmmmm i think they are 6 ~ 7K

happy hunting...

Yup found the recent thread and it seems that i have to lip the rear gards out... not too much of a problem. The cost of the wheels?? FARK!!!

[T0nyGTSt]

More like $3,500 - 4,500...

$6-7K yeah maybe if you are intending on buying new, check out Nengun, he has 3 or so sets atm for between $2 and $3k without rubber

I don't think the R34 GTR wheels are suitable for the R33 GTST.

They are too wide in the front for a RWD.

Anyway, I have a set of rims that may 17x8 F & 17x9 R Volks/Rays rims that may interest you.

Don't believe anything on nengun's site. Everytime I have emailed to get a confirmation of a price/product the reply has basically been "no sorry we dont stock that anymore" or "the price is now...."

For instance the R34 GTR Used wheels he has on the site are only au$2400 now not $2700. (Aussie dolar gone up)

Same here, everytime I ask for a price on a part the price varies so much its like he's just making up the prices on the way he feels and the web site prices are usually no where near what he quotes you.

Be wary of nengun

although back on topic.....

I believe the guards need to be flared to get R34 GTR Wheels to fit.

Damn they are sexy, I think the only Wheels I like on Skylines.

I guess the only way i can find out is if i can find someone who is willing enough to fit one on the front and one on the back and see how she sits?

Yr right in saying they are damn sexy benm...

Still, 2700 for some genuine GTR wheels is pretty good i reckon?

Has anyone purchased anything from Nengun?

[SS8_Gohan]

shit, didn't realise that they were that cheap!! i don't think i'd really care if i bought some that were scratched a bit, still would look awesome.

reckon they'd fit on a R34 GT-T ok? (sorry bout the digression!)

With used parts, for example R34 wheels vary in price. The reason for this is some have more scratches then others and the same goes for other used parts. If the Aus dollar drops against the yen then of course you can expect to pay more for your parts. ( "prices vary so much" ) Anyway you slice it if the dollar is low you won`t be too much out of pocket . If the Aus becomes too weak against the yen then I buy my new parts in bulk quanties, Hence I receive parts cheaper and so to does the customer. Anothor point is that these currency converters don`t exchange your funds, the banks do and they will always give you 2 to 3 cents less per $ than the currency exchange rate. Credit card companies make up their own rate + 3% on the total order. I don`t make up prices as I go along I just work of the bank exchange rate. If at times I have made a mistake on pricing, then by all means challange me on it.

How did you come up with the math of $300 difference. The AUS Dollar is getting stronger but it isn`t that strong. On my site the wheels are now 189,000 Yen which is $2700 AUS at the exchange rate of 70. Now if the Aus $ rises up to 85 Then you will only pay $2223 AUS for those wheels. On the other hand if it drops to 64 then you can expect to pay $2953 AUS. The only reason the Aus $ is on the site is because some people don`t understand how to convert from yen to the Aus $. If you want the current price all you have to do is ---189,000 Yen divide 70 AUS = $2700. From now on I will delete any AUS or US pricing and I will only advertise in yen.

i think they make quite a lot of $$ of selling GTR wheel, i have seen them selling for a$1050 for 4 rim in a import parts shop of HK. The shop make profit after the a$1050 selling price, so u can guess how much the GTR wheel really worth.

[nengun]

To Buy just 1 new R34 GTR Rim from Nismo is 120,000 yen divide 70 AUS = $1714 AUS X 4 rims $6857 AUS I sold a set that only had one small scratch on one rim. I classified them as near new I sold them for $2700 AUS My profit was 15% So you can really see I made a killing of profit.

[T0nyGTSt]

Nengun is tops for me.

You buy from a local shop and prices can vary. You complain if prices vary with so many ext. factors?

Bottom line is 'do you save money'?

Well do you?

I just telling people what i saw in oversea.

i do think Nengun is selling in the BEST PRICE compare to ANY other shop i have seen in aus.
