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

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.

      Even more fun, leave all the ADAS stuff plugged in, but in different locations, hopefully avoid any codes!   And honestly, all these new cars with their weird electronics. Pull all the electronics out Duncan, and just shove an aftermarket ECU and if needed a trans controller in, along with a PDM. Make it run basic but race car styled!

      To follow up a question from earlier too since I had the front bar off again (fking!) This is what is between the bumper and the drivers side wheel And this is the navigator side, only one thing but its a biggy! So basically....no putting coolers in the wheel arches without a lot of moving other stuff. Assuming I move to properly race prepping this car I'll take that job on and see how the computers respond to removing a whole bunch of ADAS modules

      So I prepped the car for another track day on Wednesday (will be interesting to see coolant temps post flushing out and the larger reservoir, with a forecast of 3-14 being 20o cooler than last time I took it out). Couple of things to mention; since I am just driving the car and not taking a support vehicle, I took the rear seats out and just loaded the back up Team Trackday style. Look at all that space! To cover off removing the rear seat....it is weird (note the hybrid is probably different because it wouldn't have folding rear seats) Basically, you remove the lower seat base, very similar to a r series but it is a clip that pulls forward to release the base rather than it being bolted down. Easy Then, you need to remove the side section of the rear seat on each side. There is a 14mm head nut at the bottom of the side piece, the it slides upwards off a hook at the top to release; you also need to unhook the seatbelt from the loop at the top. Then the centre piece is weird. You need to release/fold the seats forward with the tab in the boot on each side From there, there are 2,x12mm headed bolts holding the rear of each seat to the folding bracket, under the trim between the rear seat and the boot (4x christmas tree clips there, they suck). The seat is out but you can see where the bolts attach to the bracket

      As discussed in the previous post, the bushes in the 110 needed replacing. I took this opportunity to replace the castor bushes, the front lower control arm, lower the car and get the alignment dialled in with new tyres. I took it down to Alignment Motorsports on the GC to get this work done and also get more out of the Shockworks as I felt like I wasn't getting the full use out of them.  To cut a very long story short, it ended up being the case the passenger side castor arm wouldn't accept the brand new bush as the sleeve had worn badly enough to the point you could push the new bush in by hand and completely through. Trying a pair of TRD bushes didn't fix the issue either (I had originally gone with Hardrace bushes). We needed to urgently source another castor arm, and thankfully this was sourced and the guys at the shop worked on my car until 7pm on a Saturday to get everything done. The car rides a lot nicer now with the suspension dialled in properly. Lowered the car a little as well to suit the lower profile front tyres, and just bring the car down generally. Eternally thankful for the guys down at the shop to get the car sorted, we both pulled big favours from our contacts to get it done on the Saturday.  Also plugged in the new Stedi foglights into the S15, and even from a quick test in the garage I'm keen to see how they look out on the road. I had some concerns about the length of the LED body and whether it'd fit in the foglight housing but it's fine.  I've got a small window coming up next month where I'll likely get a little paint work done on the 110 to remove the rear wing, add a boot wing and roof wing, get the side skirt fixed up and colour match the little panel on the tail lights so that I can install some badges that I've kept in storage. I'm also tempted to put in a new pair of headlights on the 110.  Until then, here's some more pictures from Easter this year.

      I would put a fuel pressure gauge between the filter and the fuel rail, see if it's maintaining good fuel pressure at idle going up to the point when it stalls. Do you see any strange behavior in commanded fuel leading up to the point when it stalls? You might have to start going through the service manual and doing a long list of sensor tests if it's not the fuel system for whatever reason.
