18x9 +20 and 18x10+18. I seen the car your getting yesterday with some CE28s but in a smaller size.. Looked okay but no where near as much dish as XD9's. There is nearly 100mm of dish on the rear!

how much for said rims?

dang, that's right .... there is no way they would fit .... the rears are 65mm wider than stock - they would hang about 3cm out of the guards :) .... 33mm wider than stock is the perfect number I am after, so 10" rims would need to be offset of +50

Yeah the CE28Ns I have priced and chosen don't have anywhere near as much dish as I would like, but they will have about 35mm dish which is the best I can hope for with this type of car.

EDIT!! Damo beat me too it

wheels on the Stag are already porn, 19" Racing harts FTW!! I was thinking for the 32, over the 34 rims now.

ATTESSA will chuck a hissy fit if you run staggered widths because no matter how hard you try you won't be able to achieve the same rolling diameter.

Don't believe me have a play;

because of the different stretch you will actually be running different rolling diameters so you will be slowly killing your clutches, the good thing is because the 32's don't run any preload you won't be wearing them as quickly as you would be with a 33 or 34 that run a proload.

anyone know of a plastic welder in sa?

yeh i do mate

BUMPER TO BUMPER CRASH REPAIRS off tapleys hill road at Royal park

he did a great job on my series 1 m-spec bumper cutting out the middle section out and instead of leaving the cut out bit on the sides open he plastic welded a section in and it now looks flush

he is located in the western suburbs

how much for said rims?

Not cheap. So if your looking for <$2,500 no chance.

That's half the fun, making them fit. Camber might help tuck them in aswell.

    • You just need to remove the compressor housing, not the entire turbo. I would not be drilling and tapping anything with the housing still on anyways. 
    • So, I put my boat on a boat. First of all, I'm going to come out and say it. Why is Tasmania not considered a holy goal, an apex that all road-legal modified cars go to, to experience? This place is an absolute wonderland of titanic proportions. If people are already getting club runs for once in a lifetime 30 person cruises to Tassy then I've never seemed to see it. It is like someone replaced the entire place with an idyllic wonderland for cars, and all of the people living there with paid actors who are kind, humble, and friendly. Dear god. After doing a lap of almost all of the place I've found that it's a great way to find out all of the little things that the car isn't doing quite right and a great way to figure it all out. All in all, I drove for 4 hours a day for a week and nothing broke. I didn't even need to open the engine bay. This is by all means a great success, but it has left me with a list of things to potentially address. I also now have a 3D printed wheel fitment tool which annoyingly hasn't got any threads in it to actually assemble it. I might be able to tape it together to check the sizing I actually want to use, but it'll likely involving pulling the shocks out to properly measure travel at least at the front, and probably raise the car while I'm at it, at least in the rear. I scraped on quite a few things and I'm not sure how else to go about it. I was taking anything with a bump at what felt like 89 degree angles. And address those 10 other tasks. And wash the car. God damn it is dirty. And somehow, the weather was perfect the entire time - And because I was on the top of Mt Wellington it turns out it was very much about to freeze up there. I did something I typically never do and took some photos up there in what must have been -10 and the foggy felt like suspended ice, rather than mere fog. If you own a car in Australia, you owe it to yourself to do it.
    • Damn that was hilarious, and a bit embarrassing for skylines in general 😂 vintage car life ey. That R33 really stomped. Pretty entertaining stuff
    • Hi, I have a r32 gtr transmission. Does any of you guys have an idea how much power it will hold with the billet center plate and stock gearset? At what power level and use did yours brake with or without billet plate? Thanks, Oystein Lovik
    • Saw this replica police car based on a Mitsubishi Starion XX parked next to a 'police box' (it's literally a box) in Hirohata, Himeji City in Hyogo prefecture the other day. It's owned by Morii-san who is a local Mitsubishi Starion enthusiast. According to a local radio station blog post, he always wanted to make a police car himself based on ones he saw in his favourite Manga comics.  As it's illegal to modify a car to look like a police car and drive on the road, Morii-san tried many times to get permission from Aboshi police station headquarters nearby. They refused initially by after they got tired of that they granted him permission. However, the car can only be displayed on private property and obviously can't be registered as long as the police livery is present. The car was completed at a cost of 1.5 million yen (US$ 10,000) in addition to the car cost. A location was chosen outside Hirohata Police box where the car can easily been seen from the street. Morii-san has two other Starion road cars, both widebody GSR-VRs.
