Ey peepz, recently there has been a few people around asking for 4 stud wheels for their NA machines.

And it came into my head that it would be a good idea if a group buy could be organized on 4 stud wheels, to save time for the rest of the people searching for some and maybe save a bit of dosh as well.

There isn't much variety when it comes to 4 stud, i have found a few rims from an ebay seller, they come in packages. If we get a lot of people interested then maybe we can deal with that guy. So at the moment if there is enough interest and some1 has spare time to organise a group buy or find another company/seller to deal with then it would be good. Final confirmation on sizes, offsets and all the wheels available could be organised when the group buy is started.

I thought it would be better to post it in the NA section than the group buy as more people might look at it here.

Thanks

Here is a link on his ebay page: Ebay Website

Edit: Sorry cant edit the size of the pictures, it defaults to original sizes

Cheap option is sportmax. They come in 4 stud and some niiiice offsets and various styles.

I just got some for my s13 for $650 (all four).

Only got the rears fitted so far, guards need to be rolled a tiny bit, because the wheels are 16x8+0.

Here's a teaser pic till I get some more shots tomorrow of everything fitted and my guards rolled.

17x9 (what offsets can u get) ?

Woh woh I'm not the distributor lol.. I just got lucky and didn't have to order them myself. Someone was selling them via the forums.

Plenty of American sites advertise them and claim to ship. Someone should look into that.

Also got them fitted today with my dodgy ass fender rolling with a metal pole.. I pushed too hard on the front on one fender and one of the bolts came loose haha..

Bleh anyway.. New shot, needed to straighten the fronts though.. What was i thinking with my little wheel turn pose..

its probably good to avoid importing wheels at this stage, as the aussi dollar is shit house,

anyway is anyone interested in the wheels in the first post or any other wheels the ebay seller is selling, or anyother suggestions

if not then might as well close this topic.

yeah the current state of the dollar makes it a bad time to be buying right now.

however to the OP, i suggest rather than asking someone to start one maybe you could do a bit of the background work and put forward a deal to the rest of the guys.

      I don't know if you can disassemble the thing and put it backwards for different ramp rates. They're both "2 ways" or both "1.5 ways" because well, 2 ways and 1.5 ways are the same 'thing' I do not know for sure, but I believe the 38420-RSS15-B5 is the 1 way, and 38420-RSS20-B5 is the two way. In other words, I predict Nissan considers this: to be a 1.5 way. No idea what actually happens when it arrives/you disassemble it. It would be an excellent question to ask Nismo directly! I somehow doubt you will get an answer though, I feel you would be the first person to document what you encounter when you open the box and the internet would be grateful.

      I'm going to slap an old nismo logo sticker on my spare one and sell it to the land of the free for a thousand bucks

      Well - they have arrived.  And they are easy on the eye to put it mildly... These only have three bolts - but for a start there is a key that fits with vacuum like precision..  And as you can see by my ruler, the interface is large..   I listened to a podcast on HP Academy about Dan (KiwiCNC) and I'm more than comfortable he knows what he is doing. R35 Bearing assembly should arrive later today so can mock that up for a look. Can't wait to get these on and get some brake pressure logging too. IMG_3860.MP4

      I would be very confident that they are the same parts (the 2 different SKUs). It seems very clear that you can drop the cam in the 2-way opening, or in the other opening. If you arrange it in the other opening in the same way that you see any other 1-way diff, ie, with the flat of the cam up against the 1° side of the opening, then it would work as a 1-way. It can only spread the ramps when driving forwards - cannot spread the ramps on overrun. It would then appear obvious that if you put the cam into the opening "backwards", that you would get the angled flats of the cam working onto the "points" of the 1° side of the opening, which would give you ramp spread in both loading directions. I do wonder if the forward direction of the 1.5-way config is equivalent to the forward direction of the 2-way, seeing as the cams are flipped and the angled surfaces on those would need to be the same on each side - AND - clearly when installed in either the 2-way or 1-1ay configuration they are not intended to work exactly the same (the ramp angles on the 2-way are 10° different between forward and backward, and the ramp doesn't exist in the 1-way config). 'twere me, I think I would rather actually have a set of rings that offered the 2-way with two different sets of ramp angles, say the 55/45 of the existing design and maybe a 45/37.5 combo for a less aggressive effect), AND another set of rings with a dedicated 1.5-way opening and a dedicated 1-way opening. The 1.5-way opening would actually have the steeper angle on the overdrive side that causes it to be less pushy than the forward drive angle, like you see in many other diffs. But really - if this Nismo thing is thought out properly and all those surfaces work on each other the way that they need to, who am I to argue?
