Speweing I didn't order some TE37s a couple of months ago. They're now $600 more expensive a set.....

So, I need a set of high quality forged 18 x 9 or 9.5 rims for my R32 GTR. I already have some R34 GTR, so I guess you now know my taste

Who has got something for me? Surely someone has fallen on hard times and needs to offload some hot rims....? :P

Need to have good brake clearance too.

Andrew, my offer still stands.

check the parts section, there is a set of brand new 18x10+20 GT-C's for sale, don't clear r33/34 gtr brembos but might just clear r32gtr :blink:

Yeah, thanks for that. I've got big brakes going on so don't want any dish. Offset needs to suit brake clearances.

heh, I ordered my TE's just before the price hike..

I've got 4x BBS lm (sp?) rims, the ones with the gold in the middle, polished on the outside... Pretty sure 18x10 no idea about the offset. Got 275 tyres too with ~60-70% tread.

EDIT: identical to these:

-Happy with offset between +25 to +15

No worries. Contra is on. +15 on 9.5 won't work for me so I'm not sure how it will for you.

According to this going from std R32 GTR rims to 9.5 +22 you push the rim out 27mm.....+15 makes this 34mm which is too much without guard rolling and camber etc. Hence RPMs rims are not suitable. They are basically an R33 GTR offset. Let me know if you think different.

I've got Pesos burning holes in my pockets. C'mon. We're all going to be queuing up at soup kitchens soon. Sell me your rims. Keep food on the table!

    • The final part arrived today to un-clampify and simplify the intake Who would have though a 1/2" hose stainless bulkhead fitting designed for below waterline bilge pumps would be what I needed Test fit on a 3" offcut I had laying around to see if it would work, and it worked a treat All going well the intake will be on its "final version" tomorrow

    • Must have been an absolute nightmare to drive when the power steer was out, the rack ratio/wheel size/caster is all set up for power assistance
    • Welcome to SAU, what are you looking at buying?
    • I checked the injectors again (1 and 2, since they’re easiest to access) to make sure they weren’t clogged. Even though the entire fuel system had been cleaned, I wanted to be certain. Everything looked clean, so I reinstalled and connected everything. When I started the car to confirm everything was okay, it immediately revved up high, so I shut it off straight away. I checked to see if I’d missed a vacuum hose or something, but everything was connected. On the second attempt, the car ran without the high idle, but I noticed a distinct “compressed air” sound coming from the engine bay. Tracing the sound, I pushed injector #6 forward slightly and the noise stopped — it turned out it wasn’t seated properly, despite the fuel rail being bolted down. While holding it in place, the car idled steadily without stalling and ran for over 5 minutes. At this point, I pulled all six injectors out just in case I hadn’t seated them correctly or dirt had gotten onto the O-rings. Unfortunately, I discovered that I had damaged 3 out of 6 injectors (the OEM 270cc ones) during installation. So yes, this was my fault. Since only the pintle caps were damaged, I’ve ordered a Fuel Injector Service Kit from NZEFI to refurbish them. In the meantime, I reinstalled my new injectors – the car now idles fine for over 15 minutes without stalling. I have not attempted to drive it so far. It’s not perfect yet, as it hesitates when the throttle is pressed, but it’s a big improvement. Unplugging the IACV with the new injectors idles at around 800rpm, even with the IACV screw tightened fully. But this is probably due to tune.
