***SOLD***

Dont really want to sell them, but with a change in the domestic situation need to move the bulky gear laying around the apartment.

Selling because i only need a single set of rims, so going to keep my track rims which are the same width meaning i can rotate tyres. The LMs were to be my street rim , though i never got around to fitting them.

Wheels Sizes

Front - 17 x 8.5 +40 offset

Rear - 17 x 9.5 + 36 offset

These rims are awesome and are super light-weight.

They have been powder coated by the same person that has done my 19" rims. My powder coat has lasted 3yrs (so far), including track days where wheels get pretty hot, without fade, bubbling or cracking.

All the best Bris!

Damn, i wish i had that sort of money! Those wheels are awesome - It would be a dream if i had them fitted on my car.

I believe that same person also powdercoated my standard wheels. He done an awesome job.

All the best with the sale, too bad you have to let them go. Whoever purchased them will be mega lucky.

Cheers,

Silly me purchased another set of rims...so i now have a set on my car, a set in my bedroom and the LMs in the lounge room. So if you are serious then touch base with me...depending on my mood on the day my price could be flexible

how would those offsets go on a 33 gts-t

my mate has 18x8 +35 on the front and 18x9 +35 on the rear...his rears look mad so these rears would probably sit the same, but his fronts would look better if they sat out maybe 5mm more so would these sit in even further?

Ok, some quick thinking. The fronts are 12.7mm wider with 5mm more offset. So the result will be that these will sit in about 2mm closer to the shock and sit about 12mm further out. So sonce these will sit out about 12mm more, then thats 7mm mroe then what you are thinking.

Hope that helps.

nope...just confused me... I thought +40 sat inside more than +35..and +30 meant they'd further outwards....?

Yep, +40 sits further in. But you said your friends were 8" wide fronts. Mine are 8.5" so are half an inch wider. So they in turn will sit out more then your friends, with only a smidgen less clearance on the inside

damn 17" wheels are ultra hard to sell these days - if they were 18s they would be gone in a flash. If you get desperate to sell, fire me a PM Roy - unfortunately for you I have recently bought some gold WORK Gram Lights for my R34 - if I hadn't bought these I would buy yours in a flash. Other problem is that I have a set of ROH Blades, a set of Enkei Circlars, a set of R33 stockies, and a set of R32 stockies sitting around too - the wife might divorce me if I buy another set. However if they were the right price I wouldn't be able to resist.

ah damn..prolly sit out too far on a 33 gts-t then :thumbsup:

If they fit an R32 GTSt then they woudl be ok on an R33 which swallows most rims that struggle to fit on an R32 GTSt.

Yeh, 17" wheels arent really the flavour of the month anymore. But i dont want bigger, just more weight and expense. For me a nice light 17" wheel with nice good rubber on it, reasonably wide as they are 8.5" and 9.5" wide is the go. they no longer suit my needs as i really need to be able to rotate my track tyres front to rear which means 8.5" wheels all round :D

I have to pop up to Sydney to do a few thngs. So if anyone wants free delivery and will pay the 2k then they can deliver them for free to metro Syd on Wed afternoon. Only Wed though

Can I have them please? I have sent you a PM.

    • No, code 21 is very straightforward. It can only be the things described in that diagnostic flow. In fact it has no way of knowing that the spark plug resistance is out of spec.
    • 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
