Item: AVS Model 6 - A Real Japanese performance rim 17x8

Age: Came with car

Condition: Good, slight gutter rash

Price: $800

To Fit: (What car) I had them on my r33 gtst +30 offset

Location: Central Coast, pick up preferred

Contact: 0418 332 551 or PM me

Comments: I can organise to have the slight gutter rash professionally repaired, that means they would have a freshly machine lip to them, would look sweet, great wheel repairer I have used him before, $200 for machined lip, reason for selling I have just finished refurbishing some other rims. Same wheel repairer used to do my new set.

I was running these rims on my 33 with 235 on the front and 255 on the rear, good offset and good clearance never a problem, and they are really light, true performance rims. All centre caps perfect. The photo was taken just after I hosed off the dust from them sitting in the garage.

Yep I totally agree, I'm kinda bummed that my new rims arn't quite as light but I like the style of them.

White rims are definitely hard to keep clean with brake dust and all...

The low price is definitely not an indication of their quality, I'm just being nice.

damit why aren't u in melbourne!!!! i've been waiting for a set to come up in ages!!! no one has them down here anymore!

i'm so angry!!! lol

Took me forever to sell my set of 18's....no one wanted em. even though they weigh fark all (comparable to TE's)

I think its about $100 to courier them to melbourne from memory... get a shipping quote, you may be surprised...

Yep, doesnt cost much at all. I sent mine to QLD I think

Bump it up... What no one wants true lightweight japanese rims at a low price anymore...

I suppose all of the youngins are saying "but they don't have dish",

no your right no dish, their for performance, not posing...

    • Yeah I've had too many issues with knock off's on the BMW's. I don't want to do a job twice or more because the parts are shit.
    • I read this and thought "ah! I will do this scissor jack on the tow point thing!" I just use my floor/low profile/costco jack and lift the car up by the tow hook itself, then slide jack stands under. Never thought about using scissor into floor jack combo :p
    • Well, my new WMI system took much longer to finalize. I actually missed my dyno appointment last Friday and lost my 150$ deposit. I'll be going back in the next week or two.  To sum it up. I only kept the AEM tank from my old setup. I replaced the AEM pump with a higher flow/pressure ProMeth 30GPH pump. I also swapped over to a 6AN low pressure feed line to the pump from the tank. There's also a pressure switch you cannot see on the pump high pressure line.    This is feeding 6x 200CC direct port nozzles and 1x 500CC Pre Throttle body nozzle. All fittings are Swagelok, because well why not. I also have a 300PSI pressure sensor up front.    I now have my Haltech ECU controlling everything. I start my pump with a basic relay at 5PSI and deadhead it. I then PWM a 3000CC methanol Injector to control flow starting around 10psi. The pressure switch in the trunk, along with my tank level are safeties before I ever get to 10PSI, and then I use my pressure sensor upfront as a secondary safety to cut the WMI and corrections in case the injector blocks or a line ruptures.  Wish me luck on the dyno!    
    • So, I'm back with bad news. There's no jack long enough on this planet that will reach the front subframe. If by some chance there is, it would weigh 200lb's.  I purchased a long reach jack... The damn thing weighted 120lb's and was massive. Didn't even come close, was still short at least a foot. It was a pain, but I brought it back. Next I decided HA! No problem, I'll get an Extra long reach jack. Well, I couldn't lift the box... It must have weighed 160LB's and luckily there was an open box in store. I took measurement and was still nowhere close.  Sadly I've lost hope and have accepted defeat. 
    • Thanks for that tip, niZmO_Man. I think the battery is OK. It's quite a new one, but I'll check. Last time I needed a new battery, everything electronic was fine, except that there wasn't enough current to turn over the starter. I decided to order one of the partial AV system translation CDs from Car Audio Workshop in NZ. That might have some effect, or help me diagnose the date problem. 🤞
