I am in the market for some new rims for the Stagea and was wondering you all have sourced yours from?

Is it better or cheaper to import yourself from Japan (or elsewhere) if buying Jap brand ones, source locally made ones using BA Falcon fitments, auctions or wherever else?

Was looking at either Enkei BXM2 or RPF1 or 5Zigen Sports Engine SC300 or Pro Racer GN+ but have no idea where to source them from. Looking at 18" rims at this stage.

Last set of rims I ever bought was 17 years ago for an imported Mazda 626 coupe so have no clue how things work these days.

Cheers, Al

5ZIGEN FN01R-C's are the bomb

I just got R34 GTT wheels, too hard to choose some wheels I found.

Nice wheels you suggested Alex

Still the question though, where do you actually buy these things?

I like the mesh style or 6-spoke like TE-37s (without the price tag)

As for budget can go to around $2,000 for rims only although up to $2,500 if pushed but would prefer not to.

Are local wheels suitable for the Stagea?

Try the Business Classifieds here, JDM Concept and JDMimports usually sell new and used wheels here to forum members, and seem to be pretty knowledgable about the Stagea's size and offset details...

Most R32 and R33 GT-R wheel offsets should suit it fine, so it's just a matter of finding the style you want and fitting it in your budget...

Hi Alex

there were a few different R34 GTT wheels - for example my factory standard AVS ones on my R34 WILL NOT go on my S2 RS4S stagea (even though they both came with 17inch wheels) - the R34 ones are 8 inch rims and have a different offset - they run into the stagea suspension (I have tried putting them on, which is how I found out).... The ones on the Rs4s are 7.5 inch rims...

So anyone else, be careful..

Ian

Depends on what you want and how much you want to spend, I found a nice set of Koya's when I had to look for a set, but personally I love the look of 34 GTR rims on a stagea, but that is just me :laugh:

no its not just you...r34 gtr rims looks sex on the stagea

Was at Bob Jane T-Marts today (having a look around) and they had RJR wheels, one of which was the ones in their latest catalogue, the RJR Graphic. These look pretty good for a standard mesh style wheel.

Does anyone know much about these wheels, are they okay (I know they are cheaper than the Jap brands and may not be as good) but they do seem okay for the price.

Any thoughts would be appreciated.

Thinking of the 18x8's but with better tyres than the package has.

They also confirmed that fitment is the same as the BA Falcon

Cheers, Al

      Boost cut after swap(RB25DET NEO) R34

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      Don't even try to run it on the stock ECU if you're going to have the boost controller bring boost above ~10 psi. I've already told you that. If you use the Nistune ECU, you will need to CAREFULLY read the available documentation for Neo tuning, and read some threads on the Nistune forums, to discover the various things you have to do to prevent the ECU from going bananas when the boost is too high. The is a table associated with th boost sensor that must be modified to prevent it from shitting the bed. This is just one of the things that you will need to do to the tune in Nistune, because the Neo turbo ECU will be expecting to see a number of things (such as the TCS) that are not there, and you have to block the DTCs on those. It is totally not surprising to me that you are having the problems that you are, but the solutions to these problems have been known for >15 years. So just get it done.

      Boost cut after swap(RB25DET NEO) R34

      By Kapr · Posted

      Hi. Sry iam not a mechanic and iam not at the car atm so i dont know 100% but they told they measure those and even try to change those. AFM they have two. Coils are new a they have my old one too. Plugs too. ECU...we have 25 NEO stock and Nistune 25 NEO.   But i dont know if any one those could be the problem and why/if/what can cause this, Only thing they did not check is fuel...but that walbro 255 is new(like 1,5 years)... That fuel pressure gauge idk...but i let them know Any suggestions?   EDIT: how can they know if it is like you say he ECU pull power when it reaches a specific boost level that is too high? Tha car has boost controler

      By Duncan · Posted

      Can you clarify what you mean by boost cut, do you mean it misfires both when under load (driving) and when stationary and out of gear? Or does the ECU pull power when it reaches a specific boost level that is too high (boost control issue)? Does it occur at idle with no throttle? When you say "the ECU is OK", what ECU is it and why do you think it is OK? Have you used the NEO ECU, and if so do you have a MAP sensor attached? Same for the AFM, why do you think it is OK? Do you have any way to put a fuel pressure gauge on it (even just a mechanical one between the fuel filter and fuel rail)?

      Hi.. Just another problem. So maybe you can help. I(my mechanic) done swap from my RB20DE NEO to RB25DET NEO. Everything is OK but we have a boost cut. Coils/Plugs are ok...AFM is ok. ECU is ok. I have Walbro 255 but it "changed" sound few months ago(you can hear it ouside) you did not hear that when it was new(maybe faulty?) Sooo...what now? What can cause this boost cut? It is even when you standing still...
