Hey all,

Got a set of Volk GT-N's (2 piece rims) but I want to add more dish and widen them to fit bigger tyres. Does anyone know where to go to get this done??

Any ideas would be appreicated.

Cheers,

Johno

same thing i wanna do.

http://www.raceengineering.com.au/mods.htm <-- unsure of state

i no so one or 2 in vic and qld but dat wudnt help u.

just google "rim widening nsw"

but shudnt this be in fabrication section?

sum dude up in qld is getting his srr widened for more dish $230 each wheel, they cut the face off and weld a section from a donor rim :down:

.....

altho much cheaper if u can find alloy(most are steel) rim barrels

the rim barrel's or the cut nd shut?

i'd say that they shud be strong enuff as ppl get their rims widened for racing, sprint car, tarmac etc, same shud apply to the barrels.

falling apart and you would have a big reason to crack the shits, get ur money back and sue them, as thats pretty dangerous

unsure of warranty, see other examples that the company ur choosing has made, customer cars etc, and their reputation

Hmm f**k doing that option to a Volk Rim. I was thinking more of the lines of undoing the two piece rim, and moving the centre piece back to give it more dish and more of a negative offset. This even possible or am i dreaming? Because if something like that was only a few hundred bucks id be up for it.

    • Resizing injectors in Nistune can be done a couple of ways, and there are a couple of ways that you can make a mess of it. The tuner needs to be really aware of the effects of whichever approach he uses (either K, or TIM). They are both easy enough to "get the injector size right" to run the engine. But little details like old start enrichment and hot start are affected differently, depending on which boxes you check.
    • Pretty safe to say almost everyone that has tuned their own car has experienced this issue. The difference being that we have our laptop in the car and when it happens, it's literally 10 seconds of tuning to sort it.  Would you be happy to plug in your laptop and sort this yourself? It is a very simple process and there is no risk of harming your engine (if you are worried about that). 
    • Yeah thats the next step now, either they wil or i will take out for a drive to work and go straight their after work and see is we get the same issues 🤞  thought i try my luck here too, never know someone else might have had the same issue but thanks for the reply 
    • Basically your tuner needs to drive it for the 30 min (or whatever) to create the same conditions then check the ECU settings and sensors at that time. They may not be excited to because that takes them 30 min rather than just opening the bonnet and seeing the problem straight away.... Hot start is generally not as tricky as cold start, but there would be a table for fuel enrichment vs coolant temp as a starting point
    • Yeah, they all cant say anything for sure as everything is working fine . Said unable to find an issue untill it stops again. Could mist likely be CAS wiring or IAS valve issue but again not 100%
