Magic I just chased up some more info then, was at the workshop but missed Jeff and the boys were flat out with peoples cars getting ready for Auto Salon. Dont worry about the suggestion of Nungen as you need a price duties paid sitting in your garage not FOB price as to vague, we should support local so stories like J-Shop (it is in general just J-Shop are the latest) don't happen to often.

I am trying mate, no one is able to source them for me though. Imports 101 are the only people so far, so it's looking like the way to go.

Jeff just emailed me 5mins ago, he said he can't source them either. :thumbsup:

Yeah I met Mike on the weekend, we had a chat. I'll think it over I've had a few offers now. Mike, your partner def didn't end up emailing me a price though, just checked my mail then. Nengun have also got back to me with a good ETA on them, so I'm a bit indecisive atm.

Just FYI for those who were getting me quotes from their business. I've got full cash now, so today is last day for people who said they could get them for me to get me a price on them. Or else I'm going gambling with my money with Nengun tonight. :wave:

Just heard back from WEDS and in the size and offset I'm after they have 0 left in stock. The next batch will be completed as of early October!

Not sure what I'll do now. Kinda ruins my chances of gettin into Motorvation too. So devo. :D Might still put my name down for the back-order.

Perfect Run stock them and they have the quickest delivery time out of any company ive ordered from i always get parts within a week or 2

I have called them and they dont stock them man.

If no one has them in store at the moment, the next international batch gets made by early october from Weds Japan, so no matter where you go it's the same waiting list on the SA-70s.

Thanks anyway Michael, I ordered the 18 inchers with 9" width all round and +32 offset. :O

Hey Mate,

Tech9 get them, talk to Scotty, I know he can get them cos he offered them to me for my gtr and showed me the pics the supplier sent him. And im pretty sure they will be coming from over east so eta should be f all. Their number is 93143889.

Regards,

Steve

Why is everyone recommending me places AFTER I've already ordered them lol.

I know Scott. He is yet to get me a price. But your right, Tech9 resell for Weds official Australian Reseller over in NSW, Stamford. who I also spoke with directly, who are also yyet to hear back from Weds with a price and timeframe. None of these places usually stock Weds in store, they aren't very common so it's usually back order. Besides that one at jap perf parts that someone on here mentioned they had. Turns out it was sold a while ago, and it was in bronze.

I've found that getting someone in Japan to walk into Weds store personally and order it is by far more easier, which I have done. :cool:

But cheers for all the help and tips along the way guys. I'll post up pics of course when I get them in October.

    • Well, yes, every CU on the bus is available via the Consult port, but whether the scanner you are using is capable of talking to the TCU, the ABS/TCS modules, etc etc, is what is at question here. Many of them are only for engine codes. So, if you have one of those, you won't know if the ABS is having a bitch.
    • That's now. R chassis Skylines come from a time when the tolerance in the ADRs was a bit more....slack. My car, on 235/35-17, which is damn near the exact same size as the original 205/55-16, is pretty much bang on correct indicated speed across the whole legal range. That's demonstrated with constant speed run over 5km, and GPS speed. It's just the luck of the draw. My particular speedo head has to be the thing that is "calibrated" that way, because everything else (the diff ratio, the gearbox and the speedo drive**) are all same same as most other Skylines. **OK, so the speedo drive is a Navara unit to drive the R32's cable, not the electronic unit than an R33/4 would normally have with teh same gear on it. Otherwise, I applaud your OCD tendencies, and I would do the same if I needed to.
    • Not too sure, I believe the Nissan consult port does everything? Also just filled up the reservoir to full and the light is still on. The float seems to move up and down fine.
    • The speedo's can be very conservative, when my Mazda NC MX5 speedo is showing 118kph, the GPS, and a calibrated radar.... cop mate.....hits me at around 110kph +/- 1 or 2 kph, and that is on a 215/45 17, stock tyres size is 205/45 17 as well, so weirdly conservative with stock tyre size When my Commodore speedo red 116kph GPS had me at 110kph on 255/40 17, so again conservative Google says manufacturers need to set the speedo from 4 to 10% slower than actual road speed.....for safety.....and compliance  After doing some offset and clearance measurements to see what can fit the NC on 17x8 +40, without guard rolling or rubbing anything at my current ride height, I've decided that when my tyres are toast, I'm going to fit 225/45 17 and see where that gets me IRT actual speed of my speedo and GPS/radar From the online calculator I should be still be doing around 5kph under an actual 110kph when the speedo is showing 110kph My ADHD requires that when I'm doing 110kph on the speedo, that the actual road speed is actually really close to that, and not alot slower And going from 205 to 225 still keeps the car within the %/mm allowable in the NSW vehicle rules and regulations, which is nice, as long as I'm looking at the latest version that is.....LOL https://www.nsw.gov.au/sites/default/files/2021-02/RMS-13.464-Light-vehicle-modifications-Vehicle-Standards-Information-No-6-November-2013.pdf
    • Take the value it measured as, and pick the closest range available that is above the reading on the screen.   Also, no point just testing the coils. Read what has been said again. You need to test all your wiring, everything.
