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.

    • So, I put my boat on a boat. First of all, I'm going to come out and say it. Why is Tasmania not considered a holy goal, an apex that all road-legal modified cars go to, to experience? This place is an absolute wonderland of titanic proportions. If people are already getting club runs for once in a lifetime 30 person cruises to Tassy then I've never seemed to see it. It is like someone replaced the entire place with an idyllic wonderland for cars, and all of the people living there with paid actors who are kind, humble, and friendly. Dear god. After doing a lap of almost all of the place I've found that it's a great way to find out all of the little things that the car isn't doing quite right and a great way to figure it all out. All in all, I drove for 4 hours a day for a week and nothing broke. I didn't even need to open the engine bay. This is by all means a great success, but it has left me with a list of things to potentially address. I also now have a 3D printed wheel fitment tool which annoyingly hasn't got any threads in it to actually assemble it. I might be able to tape it together to check the sizing I actually want to use, but it'll likely involving pulling the shocks out to properly measure travel at least at the front, and probably raise the car while I'm at it, at least in the rear. I scraped on quite a few things and I'm not sure how else to go about it. I was taking anything with a bump at what felt like 89 degree angles. And address those 10 other tasks. And wash the car. God damn it is dirty. And somehow, the weather was perfect the entire time - And because I was on the top of Mt Wellington it turns out it was very much about to freeze up there. I did something I typically never do and took some photos up there in what must have been -10 and the foggy felt like suspended ice, rather than mere fog. If you own a car in Australia, you owe it to yourself to do it.
    • Damn that was hilarious, and a bit embarrassing for skylines in general 😂 vintage car life ey. That R33 really stomped. Pretty entertaining stuff
    • Hi, I have a r32 gtr transmission. Does any of you guys have an idea how much power it will hold with the billet center plate and stock gearset? At what power level and use did yours brake with or without billet plate? Thanks, Oystein Lovik
    • Saw this replica police car based on a Mitsubishi Starion XX parked next to a 'police box' (it's literally a box) in Hirohata, Himeji City in Hyogo prefecture the other day. It's owned by Morii-san who is a local Mitsubishi Starion enthusiast. According to a local radio station blog post, he always wanted to make a police car himself based on ones he saw in his favourite Manga comics.  As it's illegal to modify a car to look like a police car and drive on the road, Morii-san tried many times to get permission from Aboshi police station headquarters nearby. They refused initially by after they got tired of that they granted him permission. However, the car can only be displayed on private property and obviously can't be registered as long as the police livery is present. The car was completed at a cost of 1.5 million yen (US$ 10,000) in addition to the car cost. A location was chosen outside Hirohata Police box where the car can easily been seen from the street. Morii-san has two other Starion road cars, both widebody GSR-VRs.
