I have decided to sell my BBS LM 18 x 10 ET20 rims.

They are fitted with Kumho V700 ecsta road race 265/35/18 tyres that still have tread - a couple are over the wear indicators but being a road race tyre they certainly have a 2 - 3 more track days left in them. These rims suit the GTR's very well

**NO GUTTER RASH** the only marks are from the wheel alignment machine - doh (see pics)

Gold paint and general condition good - each individual wheel is pictured and also the tread left pictured.

Price - $2800

Location - Brisbane

Terms - buyer can pickup if local or arrange freight at their expense

Contact - Jono 0408 600 008 or via Pm

If you had put these up for sale 4 months ago I would have bought them in a heartbeat!

These wheels are worth $2040 each brand new and have a 3 month wait to get them. I know this because I ordered a pair last year and am expecting them in March.

damn mate you got ripped hard? there was another set that just got sold 18x9 for $1800. dunno where your buying from mate. they are good wheels but don't htink they are that good for 2000 each.

Only the new 20's for the R35 are that expesnsive and you paid 2K a corner for 18's :) What are they made of ...unobtainium?

Their full model name is BBS LM ACQ for Air Craft Quality. Not quite unobtainium but bloody expensive. Here are the prices from BBS Japan where they are made: http://www.bbs-japan.co.jp/pro/pro_i.html Do the currency conversion, add shipping & customs + mark up and you'll find the 20" for the R35 GTRs are much dearer.

1st - I own a R32 GTR and all 4 wheels need to be the same size. I damaged 2 so only needed to replace a pair of 18x10 +20. My tyres are too wide for 18x9.

2nd - I didn't get ripped off. I'm insured. The insurance company is paying for them. This is the website for the Australian BBS distributor - check out the prices for the LMs. http://www.amgaustralia.com/AMG/

The point of my original post was to help jonnyo and potential buyers in pointing out how much a set of these would cost brand new and the waiting time for delivery. His are in good nick so his price is very reasonable. I'm still waiting for my pair to arrive from Japan.

Good luck with the sale.

Yes I read the post that Sewid left regarding the wheels too, horray for you...I'm not gunna argue. Free bump for nice wheels and last post for me in this thread.

Thanks for the backup on the great build and massive cost to buy these wheels Writeoff! They are awesome wheels and yes they are in great condition.

These will suit 33 GTR's as asked above perfectly and really fill the gaurds.

    • Hi, SteveL Thank you very much for your reply, you seem to be the only person on the net who has come up with a definitive answer for which I am grateful. The "Leak" was more by way of wet bubbles when the pedal was depressed hard by a buddy while trying to gey a decent pedal when bleeding the system having fitted the rebuilt BM50 back in the car, which now makes perfect sense. A bit of a shame having just rebuilt my BM50, I did not touch the proportioning valve side of things, the BM50 was leaking from the primary piston seal and fluid was running down the the Brake booster hence the need to rebuild, I had never noticed any fluid leaking from that hole previously it only started when I refitted it to the car. The brake lines in the photo are "Kunifer" which is a Copper/Nickel alloy brake pipe, but are only the ones I use to bench bleed Master cylinders, they are perfectly legal to use on vehicles here in the UK, however the lines on the car are PVF coated steel. Thanks again for clearing this up for me, a purchase of a new BMC appears to be on the cards, I have been looking at various options in case my BM50 was not repairable and have looked at the HFM BM57 which I understand is manufactured in Australia.  
    • Well the install is officially done. Filled with fluid and bled it today, but didn't get a chance to take it on a test drive. I'll throw some final pics of the lines and whatnot but you can definitely install a DMAX rack in an R33 with pretty minor mods. I think the only other thing I had to do that isn't documented here is grind a bit of the larger banjo fitting to get it to clear since the banjos are grouped much tighter on the DMAX rack. Also the dust boots from a R33 do not fit either fyi, so if you end up doing this install for whatever reason you'll need to grab those too. One caveat with buying the S15 dust boots however is that the clamps are too small to fit on the R33 inner tie rod since they're much thicker so keep the old clamps around. The boots also twist a bit when adjusting toe but it's not a big deal. No issues or leaks so far, steering feels good and it looks like there's a bit more lock now than I had before. Getting an alignment on Saturday so I'll see how it feels then but seems like it'll be good to go       
    • I don't get in here much anymore but I can help you with this.   The hole is a vent (air relief) for the brake proportioning valve, which is built into the master cylinder.    The bad news is that if brake fluid is leaking from that hole then it's getting past the proportioning valve seals.   The really bad news is that no spare parts are available for the proportioning valve either from Nissan or after market.     It's a bit of a PITA getting the proportioning valve out of the master cylinder body anyway but, fortunately, leaks from that area are rare in my experience. BTW, if those are copper (as such) brake lines you should get rid of them.    Bundy (steel) tube is a far better choice (and legal  in Australia - if that's where you are).
