As title states.

Need some ASAP (within a week!). Would prefer 33 GTR rims, but am pretty open at the moment as i have no rims to drift on next weekend.

PM or call me on 0408782632.

Cheers.

Sitting in JDS right? :stupid:

For that kinda cash id want half decent offsets for my car. Throwing 1750 for a set of rims that i dont want isnt my cup of tea. I wouldnt want the tyres also, would just want rims only as id be using 235/40/18s. Thanks for the quick response though :).

If i am correct and they are your wheels then i may have found a seller for you anyway :P.

Looking for around 9" and below +35 offset. Would ideally prefer 18x9.5 +12 or 17x9 +0 but thats just getting picky.....

i can lend u a set for the weekend but im in burnie. 235x17"

33 GTR rims? I dont mind a road trip in the KE70 haha! Hopefully the exhaust doesnt fall off this time!

I wont need the tyres, will find my own once i know what rims i have for next weekend (if any lol!).

Worst case scenario i will contact you early next week to organise :P. Fingers crossed i can buy someWork Equips short term, but wont know til the weekend about those.

I really appreciate the offer, will be in touch either way :stupid:.

Hey Ben,

Im getting my tyres replaced today, and the fronts would be fine for drifting if you want them?

235/45R17 Bridgestone's

$50, but one would need a plug as it has a screw in it at the moment...

Gday Gerard,

thanks for the offer mate, but if you're swapping them over they musnt have that much tread. Unlike most think you actually need a lot of grip for drifting and i try to drift on pretty much new tyres so they probably wouldnt be much good to me. I will be in touch if i get stuck for tyres though mate, appreciate the offer :)

David Ayres had 2 sets of 33 GTR rims for sale, good price too.

Stu may have his number?

Thanks mate, have asked Stu for his number.

Really appreciate the responses guys, is nice to get sensible answers to a question on a forum these days :).

Not a problem Ben, just know they are there.

Your right they aren't new tyres or anything, but the main reason for get a new set was due to the rears.

Thought would be best to run a full new set than just new rears, as I want the car as balanced as possible.

Also on a side note, when getting your tyres changed and you have lock nuts, make sure you have the socket with you :)

How about some 18x10.5" +12 is that enough offset for you? :bunny:

http://www.skylinesaustralia.com/forums/in...howtopic=178038

For thrash rims 2.5k is a little too much haha!

10.5 +12 is just about spot on for the rear of my car too :D. Not running 10.5 +12s in the front of a 180 used on the track a fair bit, would rather the clearance and feel of 17s up front like i run now. Tuff rims if i could afford to drift on 4 spare rims worth 2.5k id take em.

Just to let others know i have got my hands on some 33 GTR rims ;). Big thanks to Stu for coming up with the goods.

    • Hi, is the HKS  Tower Bar still available ? negotiable ? 🤔
    • From there, it is really just test and assemble. Plug the adapter cables from the unit into the back of the screen, then the other side to the car harness. Don't forget all the other plugs too! Run the cables behind the unit and screw it back into place (4 screws) and you should now have 3 cables to run from the top screen to the android unit. I ran them along the DS of the other AV units in the gap between their backets and the console, and used some corrugated tubing on the sharp edges of the bracket so the wires were safe. Plug the centre console and lower screen in temporarily and turn the car to ACC, the AV should fire up as normal. Hold the back button for 3 sec and Android should appear on the top screen. You need to set the input to Aux for audio (more on that later). I put the unit under the AC duct in the centre console, with the wifi antenna on top of the AC duct near the shifter, the bluetooth antenna on the AC duct under the centre console The GPS unit on top of the DS to AC duct; they all seem to work OK there are are out of the way. Neat cable routing is a pain. For the drive recorder I mounted it near the rear view mirror and run the cable in the headlining, across the a pillar and then down the inside of the a pillar seal to the DS lower dash. From there it goes across and to one USB input for the unit. The second USB input is attached to the ECUtec OBD dongle and the 3rd goes to the USB bulkhead connected I added in the centre console. This is how the centre console looks "tidied" up Note I didn't install the provided speaker, didn't use the 2.5mm IPod in line or the piggyback loom for the Ipod or change any DIP switches; they seem to only be required if you need to use the Ipod input rather than the AUX input. That's it, install done, I'll follow up with a separate post on how the unit works, but in summary it retains all factory functions and inputs (so I still use my phone to the car for calls), reverse still works like factory etc.
    • Place the new daughterboard in the case and mount it using the 3 small black rivets provided, and reconnect the 3 factory ribbon cables to the new board Then, use the 3 piggyback cables from the daughterboard into the factory board on top (there are stand offs in the case to keep them apart. and remember to reconnect the antenna and rear cover fan wires. 1 screw to hold the motherboard in place. Before closing the case, make a hole in the sticker covering a hole in the case and run the cable for the android unit into the plug there. The video forgot this step, so did I, so will you probably. Then redo the 4 screws on back, 2 each top and bottom, 3 each side and put the 2 brackets back on.....all ready to go and not that tricky really.      
    • Onto the android unit. You need to remove the top screen because there is a daughterboard to put inside the case. Each side vent pops out from clips; start at the bottom and carefully remove upwards (use a trim remover tool to avoid breaking anything). Then the lower screen and controls come out, 4 screws, a couple of clips (including 3 flimsy ones at the top) and 3 plugs on the rear. Then the upper screen, 4 screws and a bunch of plugs and she is out. From there, remove the mounting brackets (2 screws each), 4 screws on the rear, 2 screws top and bottom and 3 screws holding in the small plates on each side. When you remove the back cover (tight fit), watch out for the power cable for the fan, I removed it so I could put the back aside. The mainboard is held in by 1 screw in the middle, 1 aerial at the top and 3 ribbon cables. If you've ever done any laptop stuff the ribbon cables are OK to work with, just pop up the retainer and they slide out. If you are not familiar just grab a 12 year old from an iphone factory, they will know how it works The case should now look like this:
    • Switching the console was tricky. First there were 6 screws to remove, and also the little adapter loom and its screws had to come out. Also don't forget to remove the 2 screws holding the central locking receiver. Then there are 4 clips on either side....these were very tight in this case and needed careful persuading with a long flat screw driver....some force required but not enough to break them...this was probably the fiddliest part of the whole job. In my case I needed both the wiring loom and the central locking receiver module to swap across to the new one. That was it for the console, so "assembly is the reverse of disassembly"
