Calling On All Sau Members. I Need To Scab A Set Of Rims For Engineering/rwc Of My 32gtr


Recommended Posts

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.

Have a set of 17's with RE55's, legal depth.

fronts: 235 (8" wide rims)

Rears: 255 (9" wide rims)

Your welcome to borrow them if you need to.

(Will clear R33 GTR Brembo's)

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.

    • Do a degree in mechanical engineering specializing in combustion systems and materials. Learn how to actually wrench on things that don't require 70k+ USD buy-in while you're at it. You also want to learn to weld and machine. If you still want to do this then you'll nominally have the knowledge to actually do what you're thinking of doing. Whether you still want to do any of that once you've actually gone through that process is anybody's guess. Personally I cannot imagine anything more frustrating than trying to package a supercharger under the hood of any of these cars when the turbos are already fighting for every last inch.
    • That's a function of the fuel pressure reg, not the pump. The pump can do more, needs to be able to do more. The reg keeps the pressure in the rail constant above whatever the manifold pressure is.
    • You need enough post count to have PMs enabled. It will come. They are not the same. The NA box is the skinny little box and the turbo box is the big heavy one, and the yokes are not interchangeable.
    • So, you're not talking about rebuilding the dampers, just putting new tops on them? You just need new tops and a spanner.
    • Hi All, Does anyone know how or who (shop) could rebuild my original R32 GTR Nismo struts? These are the OG logo ones that were a factory option back in the day. I've replaced them with aftermarket coilovers which are good, but the OG Nizmo struts tha i bought the car with i feel are amazing, just the rubber tops are worn and would need replacing... Plus it would make it 100 time easier for me to get the GTR fully engineered without adjustable coilovers... I was considering selling the OG suspension, but if i can get them rebuild / refurbished, I would seariously put them back on. Cheers, Tom   p.s. I'm in Sydney by the way and don't mind travelling if need be to get these puppies rebuilt.
