and LMGT4s with rubber costs more than buying the koya's brand new with brand new rubber

that might have something to do with the koyas being cheap chinese cast copies and LMGT4's being a high end forged lightweight racing wheel. you get what u pay for, i just couldnt imagine paying $2000 or what ever it is for a set of cheap wheels with cheap tyres, when there are decent brand name lightweight wheels over in Japan selling for less than $1000 brand new.

More pics of Drift Tek or Race Tek's please :geek:

Koya isn't as bad a brand as you people seem to think.. they're not csa or speedy ^^

I've been trying to find a gtr or even a gts-t in silver/gunmetal with either the drift teks or race teks on it for quite a while so i can decide

I get them hella cheap because of the company i work with... has anyone got a side-on pic of a GTR with an 18" rim on it? I want 18's because then it won't ride as hard and i won't have to be so worried about curbing them but am worried they'll be to small (that and i already have 4 255/35r18 gsd-3's waiting to go on something)

my advice would be to buy URAS NS-01's, ive had a set and tbh they are nothing special either (sorry URAS) but at least they are Jap, so you know they have passed JWL etc standards. Just Jap sell them for about what drift teks are anyway, at least then u dont have to call ur wheels drift teks lol

much difference between BeeR B5 and Uras Ns-01?

yes, spoke design is more aggressive and the angle of the spokes responds to changes in offset/width unlike the URAS's i believe. overall a more agressive wheel with a better range of sizes/offsets etc. not 100% about the quality of them as ive never seen the weight of the the B5's, but id imagine they would be better quality as well.

Yeah I notice that the beeR have a much more sunken design. Whereas my uras are quite pitiful. I bought them in +15 offset thinking they'd be crazy sunken, but instead they're all the same, just the depth of the barrel between the face and the plate that meets the rotor changes.... Wasn't too thrilled about that... but oh well... Better than Driftieks... And only picked em up for $650 delivered

i dnt want either lol

besides iv just ordered a set of Bee r rims straight from Japan. :)

shud be here in a week and a half

Love to know where you're getting them from..... They've been discontinued for 6 months or so now......

Ive looked everywhere for them.... unl;ess you're getting 2nd hand or leftover stock someone had stashed away somewhere.

    • Hi, i’m making a rb25det coil loom for Vag short coil. Can anybody tell me which Ecu signal wire belong to coil number 1 and 2,3,4,5,6? The connecting switch in above pic is 8 wire i think white is for +12v and black for earth.
    • Was there ever a model of the Stagea m35 that didnt have a badge on the grill? I thought I saw that somewhere, some aero edition or something? I cant find it again? davemoto
    • Its a 2002 vr-x four VQ25DET, silver. Coil overs, lowered, polished alloys and sport exhaust. Bit of a project, was sitting in a shed for a while but runs and drives great.
    • I wasn’t able to replicate the sound anymore. It was a one time sound so maybe it was just coincidence but it was like small pebbles being dropped in a coke can.   should I try cleaning the MAF? It could be it’s functioning but dirty? I don’t know.
    • Update 4: Hi all. The car drives again! Haven't driven for long, only to store it in the garage again, but the test drive was successful. The coolant and oil leaks seem to be fixed for now. Temps on the engine were also very good, while moving I never even saw 80C water during the approx. 30 minute drive. Ate up all the coolant in the reservoir though so will have to fill that even more when I go to the car next time. One thing that pisses me off is that the RPM gauge is still f**ked, I even resoldered the board twice and used copper paste on the silly screws that are used as connections. Next time I take it out I'll take apart the board and fit new components, I'll see if I can get a replacement IC for it.  I have an appointment set for 22nd of September for the engine tune to 370hp. Alignment also still needs to be done. My hope is that I can get all the legal stuff over with by the end of this season. Anyone of you have advice regarding intercoolers? Currently there is an APEXI core fitted, one of those weird hybrid ones, 600x270x76. I don't think it's bad but it's not new and now I still have the chance to change it now to legally include it in the paperwork. Only issue is that the only options that would arrive in time are a HKS Type R intercooler or generic Ebay spec intercoolers comparable to a JustJap one. Ideally I'd order a Plazmaman but it takes over a month to receive which would mean making the car legal has to wait until next season. Would love to hear some input on this. Same story for my injectors, the previous owner was a nunce and put ID 1050x on the engine. They work but are obviously not ideal at "normal" power levels. But I don't see a reason to change them unless the tuner says it's necessary. I read online before buying a different exhaust that the top secret style rear diffusers won't fit due to the size of the rear resonators. My buddy and I made it work by slightly "adjusting the shape" of the mounting bracket and making some spacers out of 3d print for the mounting bolts. Fits like a charm. Just putting this here in case someone has this problem. Even the hefty HKS Silent Hi Power rear can fits without hitting anything.
