Hey all,

Looking to buy a set of rims, but they have to suit a 4 stud N/a r33 GTS4... bit of a challenge... someone surely must have something...(and not stock rims!)

I can have as wide rims as you throw at me.. been told can easily fit 9" wide so width is not an issue!

Pretty sure 9" wide 4 stud rims dont exist though...

Any offers appreciated.

Thanks, Adam :laughing-smiley-014:

9" 4 stud rims do exist.

Edited by spio

Really? I didnt think they did... who makes? or where do u find 9" wide 4 studs? without changing a three piece wheel?

oh btw, R33-GTS the rims are not too bad bad yeh distance.. and not exactly my taste, thanks anyway though.

Hey guys, thanks for the help, BTW Bentleigh is a suburb In melb's SE suburbs, not Brissie:P sorry mate

I am mainly looking at 18" just depends on price and the quality of the 17". I would prob only go 17" if they were p wide, but othernwise would still be aiming at 18".

Also, PAV34, I do like enkei's, just don't know how well the goldy will go with a white car.

Ive been to a few of the bob janes' etc.. and theres a set there that is not too bad... Advanti's.. Vienna.. shadow chrome...theres a pic on nissan silvia.com ---> http://www.nissansilvia.com/forums/uploads...96994_thumb.jpg even though they are selling them for $3000 with tyres... I can get them from bob jane with PH1's on them for $2000 :P tell me what you think... the biggest these go for 4 stud are 18" by 7.5" ... not as wide as what I wanted, but they are deep dish and nice looking.

also.. for other ppl looking.. been on www.tempetyres.com.. they are in NSW.. but theres a wizard.. just put in ur car and they give you what will fit and the prices...

Thanks, Adam :(

P.S still interested in what other ppl still have to offer.

dont go to bob jane for wheels. i work for a bob jane casually..... and i dont recommend them

dont go to tempe either.

get some good wheels not this 7inch wide +40 or higher offset shit.

get some proper wheels.

send a message to some of the traders on NS.com and they should be able to set you up with a nice set of 18x8.5 or 9 inch wide rims with an offset that will fill the guards.

last weekend we had a guy come in with a r33 gtst and he put on some ugly 18inch crhome wheels with a +40 offset.... they fit, but they hid so far inside the guards, if he got the right offset to begin with, it would have looked much better

    • These coils draw 10amps that what i read online
    • I appreciate the detailed explanation, think I understand now. I spent the better part of last night reading what I could about shuffle and potential solutions. I had replaced the OEM twin turbo pipe with an alternate Y pipe that is separated further away from the turbo. The current one is from HKS and I had a previous pipe that was separated even further away, both have shuffle. I had heard that a divider can be welded in to the OEM pipe to remove turbulence, and figure that aftermarket pipes that are more separated would achieve the same thing. From what I read, most people with -10 turbos get shuffle due to their size, though it's a bit less common with -5s on a standard RB26. I think Nismoid mentioned somewhere it's because OEM recirculation piping is common in Australia with -5 cars. It seems that the recommendation tends to vary between a few options, which I've ordered in what I think is most feasible for me:  1. Retune the MAP or boost controller to try to eliminate shuffle 2. Install OEM recirculation piping 3. Something called a 'balance pipe' welded onto the exhaust manifolds. I don't know if kits for this are available, seems like pure fabrication work 4. simply go single turbo My current layout is as follows: Garrett 2860 -5s HKS Racing Suction intake MAF delete pipes HKS racing chamber intake piping hard intercooler piping,  ARC intercooler HKS SSQV BOV and pipe Haltech 2500 elite ECU and boost solenoid/controller HPI dump pipes OEM exhaust manifolds HKS VCAM step 1 and supporting head modifications Built 2.6 bottom end All OEM recirculation piping was removed, relevant areas sealed off I'll keep an eye out for any alternative solutions but can get started with this.  Only other question is, does shuffle harm the turbo (or anything else)? It seems like some people say your turbo shafts will explode because of the opposing forces after a while and others say they just live with it and adjust their pedal foot accordingly. 
    • That worked out PERFECTLY! Thank you big time to JJ. He was able to swap me his stock diff. He drove all the way to me as well. Killer! Removal & install was pretty straightforward. The diff itself is HEAVY. So that’s a 2 man job.  Man does the car drive nice now! Couldn’t have worked out any better 👌
    • I'm interested,do you still have it?
