Bought in early February and the first thing i wanted to do was change the wheels. Treads was gettin thin on the rears so i figure why bother just gettin tyres ill go the whole hog n got the wheels aswell. They're called Vertini Hennesseys from Vertini's new range. I bought them from Ozzy Tyres apparently its the first set they've sold.

There 19 x 8.5s all round. The rears could do with a bigger offset or could of staggered them but I do too many k's to not be able to rotate my tyres. I got Marongoni(sp?) tyres with them and a free set of locking wheel nuts. All up it cost me $3100

get some hub spacers for the back :)

Love the apec apaches, too... Tough looking wheels and not pricey at all!

Id run staggered fitment but need all the same dimensions due to atessa system.

When my front lip gets fitted it will make them look a little smaller. I understand what your sayin bout the size but yer i love em :) Are hub spacers legal? if they are i might look into that..

It is a gtst lol...its got all the gtr guards n wing n everything. The previous owner was a gtr freak lol its even got gtr on the keys. The lip should be here in a couple of days..

Hub spacers not legal, but neither are those rims: so it doesn't really matter :cheers:

Both front and rear rims need a bigger offset. With the GTR guards you could have gone with a deeper dish all round: 19x9.5 (all round). Those rims would sit fine on a GTST with std guards.

LOOK CLOSER!! Wider guards front and back plus smaller side indicator = GTR..

Wheels look GREAT Coxy..

Enjoy

Lol its actually a GTST but it does have all the wider guards n etc. Aestetically its a gtr but performance wise its a very stock gtst :thumbsup: The badges are stayin on for now because if it fools people who love the cars then the average onlooker won't know the difference lol.

Thanks for the comments guys much appreciated :(

    • There's restrictor pills in the stock boost control hoses. That's how they set the amount that was bled off and hence the "high" boost setting. The usual mod in the day was to remove it and send the "high" boost setting up to about 14 psi.
    • Thanks Duncan, that's the best info I've read. Furthermore after learning about the PCM programming side controlling the factory boost solenoid, the purpose of the solenoid is to "bleed" boost when pin 25 is earthed, thus allowing spring pressure in the wastegate actuator to overcome diaphragm boost pressure, thus closing or reducing the position of the wastegate flap creating more boost as the turbo is able to spin faster. It's pretty cool to see a designated Pill to do exactly this, would have liked to have seen it with a tiny filter over the end for those moments in vacuum.  The constant bleed pill has now been removed completely from the system and solenoid boost control has been restored once again.   Case closed 😂
    • The wideband reading is meaningless if it's not running. Why are you using shitty old sidefeeds on any engine, let alone a Neo? What manifold and fuel rail are you using to achieve that? Beyond that, can't help you with AEM stuff as I've never been their ECU/CAS combo.
    • Manual boost controllers (where a little of the boost was bled off) were quite common back in the day, because they were cheap and easy. Generally they had a manual adjustment screw rather than being fixed like yours. Down side is they always bleed boost, not just when you want them to so an electronic boost controller that uses a solenoid will have less lag.
    • Hello , im new here and i have A31 home build  RB25det neo stock eng / turbo  aem ems 2 blue connector  aem 3.5 map aem cas disk aem wideband connected to ecu  355 lph pump 550 nismo yellow injectors side feed aftermarket regulator  and won’t start with base aem tuner basic tune eventually flipped cas 180 degree so it triggers on correct stroke not in exhaust cycle  Now it won’t start Wideband reads 10 and 11 at lowest fuel setting  and will share calibrations soon for aem tuner i think something is wrong in aem tuner    please if you have any information, am very grateful
