these are actually 20".. but yes I def need larger tyres! I'm not too happy about the offset on these either... need some new 19" forgies yummmmmmmm.

my original aim with these wheels was to complement the car so they didnt stand out too much.. i guess it worked! lol

what is the rim size and offset .................20X8.5" +30????

I'll be joing the wheels club tomorrow. Picking up 4 big packages that have made their way from Japan! Won't have time to fit them up, so it'll have to wait a few weeks >_<black_lrg.jpg

19's SSR type F

HAWT!

what is the rim size and offset .................20X8.5" +30????

to be honest I'm not really sure what the offset of these rims is, or the actual rim width either. I do know that the tyre is 225 though lol.

it was basically a off the shelf purchase, didnt put much thought into it as I just wanted a nice set of rims rather than the gutter bashed stockies. in hindsight I should have researched ideal offset, width, dia with a decent tyre and talked to import monster for a nice set, but instead I got talked into something that probably wasn't selling so well with a set of tyres that were the cheapest of the lot. I didnt think this car would grow on me so much..

Hi guy's,

After doing a recent motor change we found an inherent problem with the M35's front lower control arm bush on both sides....seems they start to fall apart at about 100,000km's.

Now I thought to myself after talking to someone else that it may not be every car so I decided to check mine as I had noticed it's starting to track worse and worse....and I also have that f#$king vibration when powering to the left that nobody has been able to find. Sure enough and although hard to see that had fallen apart....I had to remove the arm to check it properly as it didn't appear to be broken when it was up there.

Anyway enough drivel......I have sourced polythene ones which I will put on in the next week or so and I'll check to see if it turns the drive of the car too firm. Once I have done that I have spoken to the suspension place I am getting to do it about setting up an exchange set and doing the install if needed. For those of you in Vic I will be talking to Scott about doing the install and exchange set's and dealing direct with the suspension place.

Please note that you will need a wheel alignment after doing this.

Anyway I am hoping to set up the exchange set to be about $250-$300.......you will have to go through Scott or myself to do this unless you want to put down a returnable deposit to insure we get our arms back.

I am not sure about the price of the install but I would be thinking it would be around $500 at the most including the wheel alignment at my suspension place.

any thoughts guys.

its a great idea, and after seeing those bushes stay in the car when the arms were in my hand, its a little scary.

im guessing the same thing has happened to my car.

i actually wouldnt mind going ALL poly bushes, front and rear.

    • A few small updates since the previous post and lessons. I decided to do a little interior light upgrade on the 110. I quite like the iilumo items, even if they're a bit of a premium over other brands. You'll also note the Stedi Fogs, that will go into the S15 fog lights as I needed to match the bulbs since I got the new ones earlier. I hope they fit as the body is quite a bit longer than your normal bulb.  Annoyingly, I managed to trip the fuse, which normally wouldn't be an issue until I located the fuse. I can't say I've ever come across this. I had lucked out that someone nearby had a spare, but oddly enough Toyota dealerships seem to keep this in stock. I ordered some to keep in my stash and as luck would have it, someone else nearby tripped the same fuse so I passed on the favour.  I also did a little service on the 110 ahead of some additional work coming up. It's been annoying that Goleby's stopped carrying this particular HKS filter for the 110, so now I need to keep them on order from Japan. I also took the opportunity to install a bash plate and number plate riser. The plate riser is such a cheap but nice fix to help really tidy up the car. I'm tempted to now also replace my headlights, on this car. Both items were from Project Aero.    I also needed to replace the rear tyres on the 110, and after trying to get it aligned learnt that I need to replace some bushes in the front end, so that's next.  Closing out this update with a nicer picture as always! 
    • Yeah mate, never miss it.
    • Any going to watch World Time Attack at SMSP this year?
    • Appreciate the correction on the "ground", that will make a huge difference to looking at this. That makes complete sense about AF70/AF71 which is what I had come down to being the issue, one of these. I'll have another look in the ignition wiring when I get a chance next week. I'll also make up a jumper wire for running that AF73 test.  ECU is fine, relay itself is fine, pump harness is fine and the pump itself is fine. I am going to upgrade the Walbro 255 anyway with a DW300 I have since I need to replace the fuel sender and I'm going to upgrade the FPR with my chasebays kit ready for new plenum/injectors/dbw, but I'll get this working first. That's why this is so frustrating.
