What type rims are the spare rear wheels? by Tube nuts, they prob mean Mag nuts, and to get them you'll have to go somewhere like Keith for Wheels for a skyline or ask another company to order them in for a skyline.

Went through that with another set of rims. I doubt anybody is too keen to give them away as they aren't the cheapest items as they require a key etc...

Thanx Bunta! yeah i meant wheel nuts, my duralmin lug nuts cant fit thru the hole of the spare mags cuz the hole is too narrow, i think it needs nuts with less than 20mm diameter or something, and the wheel nuts need to be long enough to come out far enough so that i can tighten them, cuz the 19mm or 21mm socket definitely cant fit into the hole. The holes for the wheel nuts have a rough inner diameter of 21.5mm.

I just had to pay $5 a nut for ones to fit my Sparcos. And i could only get 17. The guy couldn't get any more of these kind from overseas anymore either, as they dont make the wheels that they suit any more. Also had to spend another $20 on the stupid hex thing (was Kingcrome though)

    • I know people cry at the price of the Getrag 12-14k for a conversion now, but it really is a nice mid point. Not going to get change from 10k on a gearset installed.  $30k++ for sequential.   I know you run the risk of a damaged used one and parts are hard to get but as a street car gearbox its really hard to beat. If you enjoy a more traditional manual, its the choice no question.
