i need to find one single second hand wheel of the volk challenge wheels (as seen previously on leewahs car) but instead of the blue its got red, i have the oppertuntity to buy a set of 18" volks for $700! only thing is one wheel is buckled (front) but otherwise the rest are damn fine.

i wanna buy second hand as new would be to much for me

they came off a gtst so they fit already, i think i need tyres but doesnt matter, the wheels are cheap!

well its a front one, and apparently the rears are verrry wide, yet it was off an r33 gtst, so he's bringing one front and one rear to work tomorrow, see if it fits, and even if i have to buy a brand spanka from takakaira or something i will still have leet wheels, but if i can find one second hand one then yippee

they are silver with red, instead of blue like daves

I bought a set of second hand wheels for my R30 - 2 had been damage, like run flat, badly pitted around the tyre seal.

The guy I got them from managed to get them fixed - said he didn't believe they were the same wheels when he picked them up.

I don't know where they were done (somewhere in Heidelberg) - see the guys at Beaurepaires in Bayswater and ask them about the RS Impul wheels.

yep they advertise per wheel

i tried the rear wheel on my car

GOD DAMN IT LOOKS AWESOME!

its silver with red instead of blue like leewah's

i love them

rear's have 275's PZero's

fronts i forgot

only thing is the front buckled wheel

he's gonna bring it to work tomorrow, gonna take it to tyrepower (who helped me out a lot today, wheel nuts were threaded, he took them off for me, sold me new ones for cheap, and also a set of locknuts for $10 :) :)) get them to see how buckled it is, if its fixable then i'll take it this guy in heidelberg he recomended (maybe same guy u were talking about blind-elk?)

if it cant be fixed then i will be sad but wont be to upset

the $700 price tag was per wheel, i didnt hear properly, but he said $1500 for me :):P with tyres

i hope this can be fixed, they look awesome, i think the rears are 18x9 or 9.5!

its crazy!

front might be 18x7 or 8 hehe

    • 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 🍻   
    • Nice car! I’m glad folks in the US have gotten past the FnF and are buying real cool cars like the 260RS I was with a bunch of mates in Portland about a year ago and spotted a green Stagea (just a regular 2.5T AWD) parked about 2 blocks away and they were like “a what?” So I made a bet with them for a round of beers and said “ok one of you run down there and tell me if the steering wheel is on the correct side” 5 mins later the American comes trudging back up the hill and goes “he’s right guys. Ok what beer do you want?”
    • Should replace OR drop the tank, give it's good clean. Might be worth replacing that entire fuel level/pump/cradle thing with this: https://frenchysperformancegarage.com/products/fpg-s13-180sx-r32gtst-single-pump-hanger-kit-billet-hat-6-v3-fpg-089?gQT=2
