If you have some could please let know if they have a spare set of rims with roadworthy tyres laying around. I would only have to drive for 100km max and have them for a few days and they will be putted around on. There will be a payment of beer or spirits provided also.

I may get pulled up by the engineer as it has s15 rims on it at the moment with 2 dead tyres so even if they pass engineering they will fail rwc. Unfortunantly I'm not able to use my 18x10's because there to big. Bummer!

The car goes in on Saturday to the engineer so I will know then if thier ok for that. I should have it back on Monday or Tuesday and reg'd by Friday providing the mechanic isn't to fussy.

If you know of a good mechanic for RWC :mellow: in the south could you please pm me their details and not post them up. I need it reg'd do the NSW excursion next fortnight and still have a fair few other bits and pieces to do to the car by then so your help will be really appriciated.

Mine have semis on them (32GTR wheels) and I'm pretty sure they are legal but they may add further concerns if the engineer is a bit dense.

Thanks guys but I might take up Geoff's offer. The stock rims will make the car look stockish for the engineer and mechanic as long as the tyres are at the legal tread depth and rated to australian standards. I can also return the rims to where ever you want them.

I have 2 - 32 GTR wheels with 100% decent rubber.

But im not sure about the other two tyres as they are on the rear.

So best case i have 4 with great rubber.

Or worst case i have 2 with great rubber, and 2 with useless rubber.

Lemme know if ya need em Gareth

I have a set of 17x7.5s with 50% B/S GIIIs on them. But they are a +40 offset, so they'll sit too far in. Up to you. No payment required.

I have a pair of R32 GTR rims on the front of my car you can borrow as long as you replace em with something else in the meantime so I can still drive the car :laugh: I just passed roadworthy/rego about a week and a bit ago with em on.

Thanks for all the offers. I'm have some trouble getting the ride hieght up at the moment to pass engineers cert. I'll contact on of you soon as the RWC guy knocked me back on tyres but all the other parts he picked were just globes and wipers really.

      R32 GTST - 600KW+ RB28/CD009 Build

      Was the failed sensor by any chance this one? Did it just fail or start pissing on itself? I ordered one too, for fuel pressure monitoring, and now I am hesitant to put it in, hehe. Where did you find a brand one?

      You'd be insane, when a brand new 8HP is ~$4k, and all the work to put a 6 in would cost the same as an 8 and the 8 is a completely established swap. If you think that getting a cheap Falcon box is going to make it a cost effective exercise, then you're not accounting for the extra $10-15k that the task will consume.

      Baron's R34 GT-R build thread - car in Japan for 5 years -_-

      They're all horrible. X-Trails have had a nasty sounding 4cyl since forever, no matter what engine family it came from. The CVTs only made that worse. Then the whole Renault thing only made every Nissan that was contaminated by them even worse again. The only fun I've had in a X-Trail was having it blown sideways across a frozen Minnesota highway at 90 mph trying to make it to the airport to get out of the frozen hellhole of Hoth. Nearly died. Was great fun.

      Alrighty, I'll have to grab a couple pics and type out something soon in another post. I haven't driven a modern X no, this would be the first one really. Yeah the rental boxes are always cheap as chips right? So I'd doubt that anyone was handing out GTs to go and abuse. But I s'pose I could be wrong for sure. New cars these days though? Pretty unimpressed with what I see now; 20 years and all that, like you said. It just kind of worked out to have these two cars now. I'm pretty pleased with that, don't need much else. I'm sure you lads are right about the temps and for sure, you wouldn't have much time to drive 'em down there if you all were like me. I do hate sweating all over the seats though😆
