Hi Folks :rolleyes:

I'm looking into getting some Wedsport TC105N's shipped down to Melbourne, but don't seem to know any one who could get me these wheels here.

If you know an company/business or individuals who specialise in this field and most imporantantly, are reasonable people who don't take much commission, please let me know.

Cheers

These are the wheels I'm after.

Are you searching for the wheels online?

OR

Have you already found them and need someone to transport them to Melbourne from another state or another country?

If you're reffering to yahoo auctions, no i haven't found them online.

I need some one who could purchase these wheels from Japan (from the factory or wheel shops) and get them shipped here.

By the way folks, if there are any others that know those who are in this business, please do let me know.

I don't want to be limited on one person, i would be going for the person who takes the least commission.. Thanks.

After weeks of trying to find some rims that would suite the color and the lines of my car, i decided to settle for 18" Gravity Gullflame in Gold colour, 9.5" wide.

It's really essential for me to get the widest tyres available for a R33 GTST, so i was thinking 275's at the back and 245's at the front.

The 9.5" width rims come in these offsets: +15, +25 and +35

.. and the 8.5" width rims come in these: +25 and +35

Should I go both front and rear the same width rims? or Should i perhaps go 8.5" for fronts?

What is the ideal offset for front and rear wheels?

Do you think i could get same offset rims for front and rear on a gtst?

I want these wheels to exact like the ones you see in the top pic.

Help me plzzz..

+1 for Aaron giving the best rimjobs in town.

He's a giant among oompa-loompas. Landed my Advan RS rims before any other chump had them in Aus, and at a good price.

Or - for stuff that's bigger than wheels, speak to Deb at Aust-Orient Motorsports Logistics.

She helps us and our customers ship cars and bikes world-wide.

Pics?

Well i think you will probably have trouble fitting 9.5" rims on the front.

My 32 has 17x8 +25 on the front and 17x9 +35 on the back, and they really only just fit.

R33's have a bit more room apparently though.

Thanks James, much appreciated. :thumbsup:

I can't really make up my mind between those pictured TC105N's above or these different sets i found later on.

If i have to go for TC105N's (as pictured above) i would need to get them both front and rear 9.5" with a +10 offset. If i go for 8.5" with a 32" offset, they have a different face called FACE:R and it doesn't look like the one above.

I really need to know if 9.5" would fit in 33's, don't mind if it rubs innder guards on full lock as I'll try to avoide sharp u-turns most of the times.

    • just an update to this, poor man pays twice  Tried sanding down the pulleys but it didnt do the trick. Chucked another second hand alternator in the na car which I got for free off my mate and its fixed the squelling. Must have been unlucky with the bearings.    As for my turbo car, I managed to pick up a cwc rb alternator conversion bracket + LS alternator for 250 off marketplace, looked to be in really good nick. Installed it , started the car and its not charging the battery.... ( Im not good with auto elec stuff so im not sure if this was all I needed to do but I verified such by using a multimeter on the battery when the engine was running and I was only getting 12.2v )   I had to modify the earth strap for the new LS alternator , factory earth strap was a 10mm bolt which did not fit the bolt on the LS alternator which was double the size so I cut it off , went to repco bought some ring terminals that fit, crimped it onto the old earth strap and bolted it up to the alternator , started the car and same issue. Ran like shit and was reading 12.2 at the battery.  For a "plug and play" advertised kit thats not very plug and play but alas.  My question is , am I missing something ? Ive been reading that some people recommend upgrading the stock 80 amp alternator fuse to a 140 amp but I dont see how that would stop the alternator charging especially at idle not under load.  Regardless ive pulled it out and am going to get it bench tested by an auto elec tomorrow but it would be handy to know if ive missed something silly or have done something wrong.   
    • My wild guess is that you have popped off an intake pipe....check all of the hoses between the turbo and the throttle for splits or loose clamps.
    • Awesome, thanks for sharing!
    • To provide more specific help, more information is needed. What Android screen? What is its wiring diagram? Does the car's wiring have power at any required BAT and ACC wires, and is the loom's earth good?
    • So, now all you need to do is connect the 2 or 3x 12v feeds into the unit to permanent 12v, ACC 12V and IGN 12V that you can find in the spot behind the stereo, and the earth, and then it will switch on with the car.
