Hey guys, I'm looking for some 4 stud rims that will fit my car. Anyone know some good sites to find them? Everywhere I look has 5 studs.

Also, just out of curiosity, how much would a 5 stud conversion cost? Including all labor, as little sister is probably more mechanically able than I am.

Thanks.

well u can try you local workshops for starters for the conversion costs but bein a mech myself i wouldnt pay more than ( depending on price of parts ) $550

and as for the 4 stud wheels there the same as a silvia so theres plenty out there so if u want cheap try tempy tyres

there are plenty around, you just need to search harder.

sites don't work - speak with drifters, drift suppliers, yahoo japan, etc.

Yahooauctions Japan if you can handle the wait. I bought a set about 3 weeks ago and I'm getting sick of the wait. hahaha.

yeah but to buy it straight of yahoo auctions japan yourself you need to have a contact in japan that can purchase it and ship it for you

they wont ship to overseas buyers

thats why import monster is so good as they have their own group of people that do the purchasing and shipping on behalf of you

and they only take a small commission for the service...

Yep, I had someone bid on the wheels for me and also pack and send them to me. Only downside I saw to it was that when bidding was nearing an end, the emails of how much to bid would take too long to arrive and when they do arrive, the auction's ended. Whereas with import monster, you can do your own bidding.

What is your location? Tokage Racing Imports in Brisbane does good looking wheels in 4 stud with good offset/width and good prices.

drifteks or rotagrids are good for the money.

you can find crazy wheels for 4 stud, you just have to look and be looking in the right places at the right time....

www.upgarage.com < no bidding, just buy

www.upgarage.com.au / www.otomoto.com.au < Already in Aus :D

www.japimports.com.au

R31 forums have a few 4x114.3's getting around, but nothin special, I dunno what offsets and stuff are suitable for later model Skylines, but the aus 31's can go fairly low without guard rubbage (8" wide around the +20 mark), lip the guard and you can get another 10-15 mm out of it depending on your tyre choice.

NS.com and Boostcruising usually have some decent 4 stud gear if you can stand trauling thru their forums :P

Ahh thanks heaps, that helps alot.

Narrows down my choices so much. It's either black drift-teks or the black Rota Grid's

I seem to have a thing for the black on black.. Although white might look better.. What do you guys think?

    • Haha, i kow right? Could have bought so many cars for the same amount of money (or less) but driving Unicorn gives you at least +1mln to style 😅. Like wise man said "life's to short to drink cheap wine and drive boring cars" 😉
    • Newbie here, proud owner of an Autech 260RS. I'm on the hunt for wiring diagrams specific to the 260RS, particularly S1. I've ran my eyes through R33, R34 Diagrams, there are some similarities, however continue to find incorrect wire colours and pins on connectors in the 33,34 diagrams.   I was hoping someone could point me in the right direction? I'd be happy to pay for the originals in Japanese. I can translate them, at least they would be accurate.   Any help please would be greatly appreciated, never heard an RB26DETT before let alone driven one, and I've got a spaghetti monster of goodness to sort out.   Cheers Benny  
    • Hey all  im wondering if you can help me please I have put a rb20 box in my r34 gtt as my auto packed up and a friend had a spare box I know it’s not ideal but it will get me up and running for now. we have done the conversation and everything is working great but my Speedo we got a s13 speed sensor but my Speedo reads double now and I bought a speed converter but still not having any luck.  so I thought I’ll reach out and pick your brains  any help would be appreciated please as I wanna drive my car again 
    • Drain it. I got official Matic D but you can get whatever is listed as Matic D compatible.
    • Thanks guys,  Yeah I should at least have them dynoed, at least then I know what I've got as a starting point.  The springs on these are hard as rocks. I vaguely remember Russman saying he was going to sell the shocks to me with the rocks fitted, as he was keeping the softer springs for his new setup.  I didn't click at the time but of course that was to let me know the shock/spring wouldn't be matched.  I also remember pricing up new springs around 2014-15, but, house, money etc. it never happened. So that was another reason to have them rebuilt. I have rebuilt the forks on many motorcycles so I think I could handle the seals on these easily enough, but getting the valving right would be a rabbit hole I cbf exploring.  Duncan, interesting to hear RP was tuning these back then. I might give them a call.  In the mean time I have been busy fitting sway bars. The Whiteline rear sway bar I purchased 15 years ago finally got fitted, along with the Whiteline front bar that showed up last week. Just waiting on new links for the front sway bar to finish that off.  And my spare set of advan AVS VS5's should be back from the powder coaters in a Pearl White finish sometime this week, with a set of Hankook RS4's lined up for fitting.  And then I just have all the suspension bushes to do. A comprehensive kit is on the way... Lots to do before the Ararat hill climb. Cheers guys 🍻
