hey man, how close do you seriously think they'd go to sneaking under the guards of a 33 GTR? i love em, i want em, but i don't really want to start hacking away on the body of my car, it's in mint condition and i wanna leave it that way if i can help it

I think the fronts will fit ok, I think the rears might be stretching the friendship....altho having said that, here's an R33 GTR with 18x11s and it looks fine - obviously offset would be a little more conservative;

passing this ad onto a friend, awesome wheels and even better price.

>> shipping will probably be $50+ per wheel. i got quoted 40 bux per wheel for 15x7" with no tyres from sydney so i imagine these will be more to brisbane and a bigger wheel.

Wheels are still here.

...to those who have PM'd me wanting freight prices I apologise, work has been nuts. I will get prices asap.

Hi Chris,

Let me know when you have a price(s) for shipping to Brisbane ;)

I am still very keen on these rims ;)

Also, a side note for those S13 people out there with 5 stud conversions.. you'll need approx 5" wider rear guards and 3" wider front guards to fit these :P

Regards,

Sherwin

I beg to differ young Sherwin...I test fitted them under the back of my old R32 4 door and I needed to pull the guards out 70mm to clear the rears. Bearing in mind 1 inch = 25.4mm, 70mm = 2.75 inches. In addition, an S13 has bigger rear guards & tubs than an R32 4 door and is also more dish 'friendly' - as it's a coupe and has the full quarter to play with (i.e. no rear doors).

You'll definitely need wide body or flares, but 5 inches is a bit extreme IMHO. Too bad I don't have my S13 anymore to test fit them.

Up ya get!

If they are still there in about a week or so then i'll pick them up.

If anything i'll need spacers to cover up my wheel arches i think i went a bit overboard with my widebody

I used an offset calculator to got those dimensions.. but I was doing it with 3 different rims at the time so I may have them mixed up??

Either way, when you have a price for shipping to Brisbane, Pm me with the payment details :thumbsup:

    • I'll get one of these also just for giggles
    • I bought 6 new spark plugs to compare readings. They will be here tomorrow and ill see if meter is far off if it all. I know one is at least reading 0 so its best replace all anyway if one is bad, from experience. I still have to test the harness just to be sure its not a double issue and I waste my time haha-the old plugs are iridium I always thought those lasted more than 50,000 km.
    • If you take the top half of the intake off you can unbolt the flap off the shaft and leave the shaft in there blocking the hole. Then you can remove the little vacuum canister off from under the manifold and get a spare vacuum line to run to the ECU. I can take some photos of it later. Probably best to get the vacuum source to the ECU sorted first though. Mine all worked mint with the base map from the GTT an I've pretty much let the closed loop sort the fueling and took 1 degree out of the whole timing map.
    • This IS something you also have to configure in Haltech (or at least I did in the past when going from onboard-to-ECU map sensor and an external MAP sensor in haltech land).
    • I'm hoping it's something as simple as the ECU is looking for an external MAP sensor, but he is trying to use the onboard MAP sensor.
