nah i need to sell them Krishy. they have $850 worth of awesome condish tyres on them so im only asking $450 for the rims? yeh they are in the main section, ive dropped to 1300.

Problem is, the resale of tyres is pretty much nil, unless they're semis. To sell a set of road tyres on their own, you'd be lucky to find anyone willing to pay upwards of $400 even for the best shit. Most people looking at your rims will just see driftteks for $1300, which they can get without tyres somewhere else for like $1000 or less, put cheap $100 secondhandies on and be done with it.

I'd just put $1000 on them to get rid of them if it were my wheels. Sure you get 300 less, but you gain $1000 (because the rims might actually sell then :D)

Also damo isn't one of them cracked??

If that's the case then they are worth even less.

OK

Being the resourceful young lad that I am, I have a few handy links in my bookmarks. One of these is for japanese luxury car specialist - Fabulous. Now, these blokes build some damn nice vehicles, with some hefty price tags to boot.

Take this here S Class for example. Now the S Class isn't really a cheap car. I guess the guys at Fabulous thought along the lines of 'well if they can afford that, they can afford to pay big for mods' :)

The one in that pic has front bar, side skirts, rear bar, rear bootlip spoiler, chrome taillight additions, driving lights and some rather large wheels :rofl: The cost for these additions?

$28100 :D

Chuck the 'Fabulous Luxury Floormat' set in as well for $1500, why not :rofl:

Still, if you had an F430 and wanted a front splitter, side skirts and some trimming around the exhausts you'll pay 14k for FRP. 19.5k if you want carbon :P

Throw in the Sachs racing suspension package and set of 20s with the body mods and you're 54 thousand dollars lighter :)

    • Have you flushed the initial fluid yet? It should look like a rainbow unicorn shat glitter into it. 2nd or 3rd fluid change is when you party.
    • all brand new unit from Tomei, fluid, bearings, etc. Tomei said they call it a 1.5 lsd because its 100 percent lock up under acceleration and 50 percent under deacceleration.  as I mentioned I used their fluid, install and their break-in procedure, (alot of figure 8's) but even when driving straight, or even slowly backing out of garage for first time, (at 2 mph) then driving to and from figure 8 parking lot, each tire in the rear would sporadically grab, skip, bounce, shutter and skip, shutter back a force I could feel causing clutch to slip then grab, at any speed. shaking entire car. I removed unit, since I put stock back in and all is fine, via process of elimination, its something with the lsd unit itself. I wasn't going to beat up the entire car more or change anything else for no reason as I had a feeling something in the lsd itself was wrong as everything was fine before this alone was installed and I rechecked over everything else after first time backing out I suspected an issue. I'll probably sadly already need new tires now just from trying to drive it 5 miles and performing the figure 8 break in. but if someone has any ideas I'm all ears 
    • Ok thanks..that was my second question if i can somehow bypass this even with Nistune(that is all i have right now...aparat from stock ECU. So with some aftemarket it can by "bypassed" or make it work?  I know there is Link or Haltech (mainly used). We have ECUmaster here so i will gather some info about it.
