cheers midlife crisis

Thinkin' bout getting the gold mock GTC's in 18inch for my Gt-t....a cheap option compared to the real deal..anybody shipped rims to melb or anywhere else from them?

Here's the pic of 'em

:no:

Just make sure you confirm with them that they will clear R34GTT 4 pot calipers at the front as not many wheels from tempe do that due to the weak offset, width and also spoke design. And don't let them tell you that running spacers is an option because they're illegal.

My brother bought a set of wheels n tyres from them and he was in Adelaide...no dramas, smooth transaction. Just make sure they FIT, as you don't want to be sending back wheels back and forth or trying to get refunds off them when ur interstate.

Mate no praise of Tempe Tyres from me....bought a set of rims and tyres, found out there was a manufacturing problem with one of the tyres, took it back and they would help me. felt like bad wheel balance and allignment. Tyre wasnt round...

No dramas for me... they couldnt supply the rims i wanted in a reasonable time frame after i made my payment so they gave me an awesome discount on another set. rims came to perth exactly the day when they advised me they would, well packaged. i'd use them again.

i dealt with them (through tyre power in adelaide). they are USELESS. rims didn't get here on time, sent commodore offset for the front, skyline rears. pay a little more and get em from someone else. tyre power hooked me up with some locknuts and better tyres for the hassle. don't use tempe. they are SH*T.

Guys - please: If you have something "bad" to say about Tempe Tyres please do it by PM as its againt the rules to publicly say those things on SAU even if you're right

Cheers

    • Hi, SteveL Thank you very much for your reply, you seem to be the only person on the net who has come up with a definitive answer for which I am grateful. The "Leak" was more by way of wet bubbles when the pedal was depressed hard by a buddy while trying to gey a decent pedal when bleeding the system having fitted the rebuilt BM50 back in the car, which now makes perfect sense. A bit of a shame having just rebuilt my BM50, I did not touch the proportioning valve side of things, the BM50 was leaking from the primary piston seal and fluid was running down the the Brake booster hence the need to rebuild, I had never noticed any fluid leaking from that hole previously it only started when I refitted it to the car. The brake lines in the photo are "Kunifer" which is a Copper/Nickel alloy brake pipe, but are only the ones I use to bench bleed Master cylinders, they are perfectly legal to use on vehicles here in the UK, however the lines on the car are PVF coated steel. Thanks again for clearing this up for me, a purchase of a new BMC appears to be on the cards, I have been looking at various options in case my BM50 was not repairable and have looked at the HFM BM57 which I understand is manufactured in Australia.  
    • Well the install is officially done. Filled with fluid and bled it today, but didn't get a chance to take it on a test drive. I'll throw some final pics of the lines and whatnot but you can definitely install a DMAX rack in an R33 with pretty minor mods. I think the only other thing I had to do that isn't documented here is grind a bit of the larger banjo fitting to get it to clear since the banjos are grouped much tighter on the DMAX rack. Also the dust boots from a R33 do not fit either fyi, so if you end up doing this install for whatever reason you'll need to grab those too. One caveat with buying the S15 dust boots however is that the clamps are too small to fit on the R33 inner tie rod since they're much thicker so keep the old clamps around. The boots also twist a bit when adjusting toe but it's not a big deal. No issues or leaks so far, steering feels good and it looks like there's a bit more lock now than I had before. Getting an alignment on Saturday so I'll see how it feels then but seems like it'll be good to go       
    • I don't get in here much anymore but I can help you with this.   The hole is a vent (air relief) for the brake proportioning valve, which is built into the master cylinder.    The bad news is that if brake fluid is leaking from that hole then it's getting past the proportioning valve seals.   The really bad news is that no spare parts are available for the proportioning valve either from Nissan or after market.     It's a bit of a PITA getting the proportioning valve out of the master cylinder body anyway but, fortunately, leaks from that area are rare in my experience. BTW, if those are copper (as such) brake lines you should get rid of them.    Bundy (steel) tube is a far better choice (and legal  in Australia - if that's where you are).
