Item:Buddy Club QF 18x10 +12 Gunmetal Grey Forged Racing Wheels

Age: New

Condition: New

Price: SOLD

To Fit: GTR models

Location: Adelaide

Contact: PM, [email protected], 0413 250 250

Comments: I settled on these wheels after weeks of searching for an affordable lightweight Jap rim to suit my GTR. These also appealed to me because of the offset, tough agressive stance and dish. At same diameter and 1/2in wider they are same weight as Volk's lightest wheel, the CE28N. Buddyclub Australia retail these for $3800 before shipping.

These rims took almost 6 months to order from Japan. A lot has changed for me during this 6 month wait and my car will be going up for sale shortly so these are now for sale out of the box at my cost price.

More details can be found at http://www.buddyclub.com.au/

I also have 5 sets of 4 lightweight forged Buddy Club racing nuts to suit. These are at a cost of $174 and can be added onto the above sale

Looked at wheels for the first time this weekend. These are one very impressive wheel in the flesh. It kills me not to be able to fit these to my GTR :D

Thanks,

Wegs

I assume you havent actually received yet? If not when are you expecting delivery, how long ago did you place the order?

So will you be shipping from Adelaide to the sellers location, or change the address to go direct from Japan?

thanks

Correct, I haven't received these yet. I placed the order in November and paid up front (minus shipping). Was told to expect them late January but due to Buddyclub waiting to receive more orders worldwide before producing a batch I had to wait. Was told on friday these are expected from the factory in the next week. Because i won't be keeping them and because i have to pay shipping regardless I am advertising early in case someone can benefit from shipping them somewhere other than adelaide. If they don't sell i will take delivery to Adelaide and then re advertise.

Cheers

  • 2 weeks later...

Turns out these were literally ready to ship 2 days after my post and couldn't be left waiting around in Japan. I have now taken delivery of these which also gives more buyer confidence about these being the real deal and in Oz ready for pickup/shipping.

    • Hope you aren't too sore after that one, might take a day or 2 to notice yet and I guess it is a loooooong drive home. On the bright side, tube frame front end is a thing at superlap, right?

    • The chart of front pressure to rear pressure (with one being on the x axis and the other being on the y axis) is not a straight line on a typical proportioning valve. At lower pressures there is a straight line with one slope, and at higher pressures that changes to a lower slope. That creates a bend in the line at that pressure, called the knee point. If you do not change the proportionng as the pressure gets higher, you will suffer excessive pressure (at one end of the car or the other, depending on which way you look at the proportioning action) and then get lockups at that end. The HFM BM57, from my memory of previous discussions, is based on the BM57 from a different car (to a Skyline), with a different requirement for the location of the knee point and the distribution of pressure front to rear, and so is not a good choice for an upgrade on a Skyline. Here's a couple of links to some old posts, one from here, one from elsewhere. A lot of it pertains to adjustable prop valves, but the idea is the same. There are plenty of discussions on here about this issue from al the many years of people wanting a cheap/accessible option. https://grassrootsmotorsports.com/forum/grm/learn-me-brake-proportioning-valves/236880/page1/ https://grassrootsmotorsports.com/forum/grm/learn-me-brake-proportioning-valves/236880/page1/  
    • Yeah dunno why johhny posted that here with no context, just post on FB/insta bro where he put it up?  Laine had an off at T4 during Thurs prac, he's ok, car is less than perfect, they are done for the weekend, he can fill in the rest. Bando also binned it like 100m up the road.   
    • I feel there must have been a FB/insta post and the weekend did not start well at all I hope everyone is all okay
