I have seen lots of wheels similar to this but they arn't called Dritek the ones i've seen.

some similar ones @ http://www.musecret.com.au

http://www.lensowheels.com

I did a google search too for that name and it only came up with vaige international sites but no real results.

Hopefully someone can find u the legit ones but the ones i posted have copies which are very close.

With that first site, they are all brand name wheels. I looked at the prices, I assume they are per wheel, so for the ones i liked that over $4k for a set without tyres. That is insane, I could never justify that kind of money.

The second webiste I found a couple of wheels i liked, but they were either only available in 17" or 19".... 17's are too small and 19's are illegal. I can't believe how hard it is to find wheels. I found out the wheels i liked are koya driftek's http://www.koya.com.au/ and appear to be only available in 17". I am speechless that they dont make 18's...

Maybe try http://www.ozzytyres.com.au & http://www.tempetyres.com.au - tempe have cheaper prices cause theirs arn't all brand names.. yeha i am in the market for either 18's or 19's cause i got 17's standard and finding nice non chrome 19's @ a decent price is very hard.

Yeah, I did just find these ones:

mag_140_209_bg.jpg

They come in:

19 x 7.0 inches

19 x 8.0 inches

18 x 7.5 inches

17 x 7.0 inches

Such a wierd selection of sizes... 19 x 7.. wtf ? :wave:

but yeah at least 18 x 7.5 would do the job.

ozzy doesn't let u direct link their images better off posting link to page.

Oh nice, yeah that sounds good for 18"s thats about what I was looking at. Maybe spend a little more to get some decent rubber.

Do you know what offset they are and if they will suit an R32 Gts-t? Because a set of rims i recently ordered didnt clear my brakes... :wave: The 4 pots that came with my car are quite big... good to have, but annoying to fit rims to.

Not too sure about the offset as i didn't ask i just said to the guy will it fir a r34 gtt sedan and he said yep cause the breaks a huge, so guessing that they should clear yours.

Hey dude, I have the exact wheels in that photo, I bought them from Dapto Tyrepower (Dapto is near wollongong)

They are the only place in Sydney that sells Koya I believe.

They cost $1800 with decent tyres (bargain)

From memory I searched for ages with google with keywords koya and tyres LOL until I stumbled on this place.

By the way the rims are 17inch, they don't make them in 18s so sorry about that. They still look awesome in 17s :wave:

Here's a contact number for dapto tyrepower: (02) 4261 9977

Hope this helps :pirate:

Yeah I feared that was the case with those Driftek's. Its a shame cause they are a really nice design, but I currently have 17's on my car and its not worth changing to just get a nicer design I want the biggest rims I can fit legally!

Thanks for the reply though!

Excellent!! Finally some good news. I emailed them from their website to get specific info, but im sure if they will fit your car they will fit mine. I assume your cars front calipers are 4 pot also?

Ventilated: 4 pot front, 2 pot rear

Yeah sweet. Well if clearance isnt an issue there then it shouldn't be for me. I'll have to make a few calls 2moro then to try get a set to test fit and return the others that I had a deposit on. I'll keep you posted. Thanks for your help mate, much appreciated!!!

      Duncan's V37.......race car?

      Ahhh, I need the whole head unit. I definitely needed to roll back through and review your setup, ha ha! Neat setup they have going on. I just need a full double din head unit. But I want good and responsive. I might have to review what the likes of pioneer have out these days.

      34 de+t conversion using s2 stagea automatic transmission, engine harness and ecu

      By albyz34gt · Posted

      Ok so after much research and talking with knowledgeable people I've got my turbo conversion done and it's all running great other than 1 small issue.  Car has remained auto with the na auto and tcm, I've used a stagea ecu with. NIstune board and everything is great other than my gear selection on the dash. It illuminates park, reverse, neutral, 3rd and 2nd. But nothing drive or what gear your in when you pop it into tiptronic.  I'm sure there is may e 1 wire in the ecu plug I need to move to rectify this. Dose anyone here have any ideas?   Cheers guys

      R32 GTS (RB20DE) Injectors Replacement

      By Duncan · Posted

      Sorry I haven't been following all the detail, so you may have tried this. Does it idle with the tiniest bit of throttle you can add? You've mentioned the IACV, does it have an AAC valve and have you adjusted it at all (ie, screw the idle adjust screw all the way in, then back it out a couple of turns until idle is stable)?

      R32 GTS (RB20DE) Injectors Replacement

      By GabsReDeal · Posted

      My bad, I unplugged the one underlined in red instead of yellow before. With the car started, after unplugging the IACV (the one underlined in yellow), it idled at around 400/500 for 3 seconds before stalling. Attempting to start the car without the IACV will not start the car.   It does stutter and sputter for around 5 seconds before dying. However, immediately after starting it, you can already hear some slight sputters from the exhaust.   It won't start with the AFM unplugged. If it is when the car has already started, it stalls in a few seconds.   Yesterday, I did take some logs using Nistune of 3 scenarios. Car idling till it stalls Car idling and unplugging the IACV Car idling and removing the AFM I also have some previous logs of when the Car is idling till it stalls and when driving and it cuts. I am not really knowledgeable enough to understand what to look for. After every test, car idles rougher and rougher, until I have to stop. It will be fine the day after.

      Wheel Sizes & Offsets For Skylines

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      There is no difference between a 17x8 and an 18x8. The total diameter of the tyre needs to remain +/- the same (so you don't mess up the gearing, speedo reading, and clearance when turning front wheels..... so you just need to use a lower profile tyre on th 18 than you do on the 17. /rocket surgery.
