Some already know,and for those that don't,my R32 GT-R is undergoing a restoration of sorts. More a serious upgrade,I s'pose. As such,the little beastie wont be turning a wheel in anger for a while yet,so I thought I'd off my trackday rims and tyres in the interim. They're Sparco Pythons,purchased from one of our good Canberra members who'll no doubt have all the spec's if I ask(as I've clean forgotten yesterday,let alone specifications like offset...). What I do know is:17" x 9",with the offset to fit the BNR32 with no clearance issues(my car is lower than standard,but sits just above legal road height...). Tyres are Falken RX-04V II's in 245/45/ZR17,which are a sticky trackday compatable rubber;not DOT approved,so you'd run the risk(and the wear issues)if you used them on public roads,especially if it rains! However,once heated up on the track,I dropped over 2 seconds off my Wakefield lap times,and there'd be more if I didn't drive like a nancy boy...So;cheap trackday rims that are a bit scratched and biffed up-nothing that appears structural,or I wouldn't have used them-no centre caps,with tread at 90%,including wheel nuts,for $1000 firm. Buyer organises pickup/transport/freight;PayPal,direct deposit or the traditional folding stuff only. PM me if needs be,and we'll go from there! Jayce.

Are these rims 4/5x114.3? or 5x100/5x114.3?

Cheers Phillb

Ermmm...whatever the standard R32 GT-R takes? I actually have zero idea what measurement you're refering to:what do I need to measure to answer you properly?

looks like they are multi-fit rims

so they have both 114.3 x 5 stud pattern

and 114.3 x 4 stud pattern

so will fit 5 stud jap cars (except subarus) and fords

and 4 stud jap cars (most RWD's)

cheers

Ah,right! I know now what phillb was refering to. True,they are multifit's:nobody has redrilled 'em:they came that way from the factory!

they are multifit, i used to have a set and still have the centrecaps

jase id b interested in them for sure without the tyres if ur willing to seperate

Sorry mate;I paid more for just the rims,so the price is intended to give me more room in the shed when the buyer takes everything! I don't need the tyres sitting around,as they too wont get used for many a month otherwise! Plus,I'd have to drop more dollars off for "just the rims",taking into account your long haul from the Riverina(see? I'm always thinkin' of you! LOL!)...So,sorry;they're a "job lot"!

I would like to look at them and take them off your hands today if you are around. I have PM'd you with my number, give me a call.

    • HFM BM57 has a "bad" knee point, IIRC. It's not the same thing as the later R chassis MC.
    • The ATTESSA is functionally identical to R34; there were a bunch of JDM models that continued ATTESSA including Fuga/Q70, Skyline/Q50, Cima etc as an option. All with Auto only and I think mostly for snow regions. AFAIK there were no AWD VR30DDTT sold in Australia - it is on my to do list to check regs for racing a LHD car in Targa/ATR/AASA/CAMS events because if I can get the auto to work it would be interesting to run a 4wd car The Ecuteck TCM tuning is the same model as their ECU tuning, they already have it for R35 and Dose's favourite, BMW. You buy "points" to allow your computer to be tuned, buy either a bluetooth (phone app) or bluetooth+USB+Key (phone and PC) dongle, and pay for a tune that will be locked to your tuner ( ). You can also access the tuning software yourself but 1. it is mega expensive and 2. these computers have a billion parameters that intersect, so how could you ever spend enough time on it to get a decent result.
    • Or, is it a case of what it is like owning an R series Skyline? NFI what the previous owner has done or fiddled with... Ha ha ha After reading through this thread, I went on a bit of a research about the Q50/Q60. Now I'm quite intrigued by them! Is the AWD in them more like a WRX where it's always AWD, or is it more like the ATTESSA in the GTRs? By the sound of this TCU tuning, this sounds like a case of someone has made some real software for it, and you just need the right piece of hardware, and then you license that specific vehicle/TCU. Or is this a case of the software will be really expensive so only a few tuners have it, and you still have to pay a license per vehicle?
    • By popular demand.. it was a coil. Got my hands on 1 new OEM coil, replaced with the one that made the less noise difference when I unplugged it while the car was running and started the car up. No stutter and the engine light was gone. I guess I’ll buy the other 5 they have lol
    • No, code 21 is very straightforward. It can only be the things described in that diagnostic flow. In fact it has no way of knowing that the spark plug resistance is out of spec.
