Hi All,

Please don't flame me for throwing up a FS thread with my very first post but I just bought myself an R34 GT-R and am selling the wheels it came with.

White Nismo (Rays) LMGT4 18 inch rims wearing Bridgestone Potenza 285/30/18s with near-new 95% tread. Only selling because I have my eyes on a different set of wheels for my new baby.

Being 285s, they look mean as! The rims are in excellent condition, the only thing worth mentioning is that the 'nismo' sticker is a little faded in parts on the spokes. I know they fit my car ok, not sure what other models they fit.

I am in Brisbane, would prefer a local sale but would ship at buyer's expense.

Offers anyone?

I can email a pic to anyone interested.

Cheers

Jon

Sorry but for some reason it won't let me edit my original post??

Have attached a quick pic I took last night, will take some better ones of all 4 wheels over the weekend.

Am looking for $3500ono. Please note that they won't be available for about 2-3 weeks as this is how long my new wheels on order will take to arrive. Need to keep them on the car til then.

Thanks

Yep looks like you did buy Omar's car... Not a bad buy for $43k. You can't edit your original post after 2 hours.

Oh yeah sorry forgot to answer your query - yeah flew down and drove it back to QLD Wednesday! What a drive that was...if it wasn't in a car that I have dreamed about owning for the past decade, it would have killed me!

Got it for $41,000 so was stoked. He was great to deal with, nice guy.

Yeah I was shattered when he messaged me on Wednesday night saying someone from Qld just bought it.. I was going to put a deposit on it this week, should have acted sooner! Very clean car with some nice goodies (those top secret diffusers are worth heaps). Ah well, Enjoy!

p.s. If you're selling the HKS hard pipe kit let me know :)

Ahhh so you're the guy he was talking about then. Looks like I just made it, glad I jumped on the first slight to Vic. :)

Yeah its pretty immaculate, I'm very happy with it. I can't believe how quick these things are. Can't wait to see what a few mods do.

well im gonna go out on a limb here and say since he mentioned theyre weaing 285 rubber and the fact that theyre off an R34 GTR that they would be 9.5 all the way round...... and think of what ur usual GTR offset would be and go from there until he actually takes the wheels off and checks the offset...... just a thought ppl :D

I have today checked and the wheels are 18 x 9.5, PCD 114.3 and offset +12. This from sticker on the rears. Can't see a sticker on the front but I assume they're the same, as they have the same rubber.

Sorry for the delayed info. I thought the fact that I said they are on my R34 GT-R would mean at least some people out there would know if they fit or not pending the specific offset details.

Sorry should have specified - the tyres are Bridgestone Potenza RE050A's. As stated tread is near new.

I can assure that all wheels are in as good a nick as that pictured above. No gutter rash or scratches. Just the worn Nismo stickers.

    • Surely somebody has one in VIC. Have you asked at any shops?  Is this the yearly inspection or did you get a canary?
    • This is where I share pain with you, @Duncan. The move to change so many cooling system pieces to plastic is a killer! Plastic end tanks and a few plastic hose flanges on my car's fail after so little time.  Curious about the need for a bigger rad, is that just for long sessions in the summer or because the car generally needs more cooling?
    • So, that is it! It is a pretty expensive process with the ATF costing 50-100 per 5 litres, and a mechanic will probably charge plenty because they don't want to do it. Still, considering how dirty my fluid was at 120,000klm I think it would be worth doing more like every 80,000 to keep the trans happy, they are very expensive to replace. The job is not that hard if you have the specialist tools so you can save a bit of money and do it yourself!
    • OK, onto filling. So I don't really have any pics, but will describe the process as best I can. The USDM workshop manual also covers it from TM-285 onwards. First, make sure the drain plug (17mm) is snug. Not too tight yet because it is coming off again. Note it does have a copper washer that you could replace or anneal (heat up with a blow torch) to seal nicely. Remove the fill plug, which has an inhex (I think it was 6mm but didn't check). Then, screw in the fill fitting, making sure it has a suitable o-ring (mine came without but I think it is meant to be supplied). It is important that you only screw it in hand tight. I didn't get a good pic of it, but the fill plug leads to a tube about 70mm long inside the transmission. This sets the factory level for fluid in the trans (above the join line for the pan!) and will take about 3l to fill. You then need to connect your fluid pump to the fitting via a hose, and pump in whatever amount of fluid you removed (maybe 3 litres, in my case 7 litres). If you put in more than 3l, it will spill out when you remove the fitting, so do quickly and with a drain pan underneath. Once you have pumped in the required amount of clean ATF, you start the engine and run it for 3 minutes to let the fluid circulate. Don't run it longer and if possible check the fluid temp is under 40oC (Ecutek shows Auto Trans Fluid temp now, or you could use an infrared temp gun on the bottom of the pan). The manual stresses the bit about fluid temperature because it expands when hot an might result in an underfil. So from here, the factory manual says to do the "spill and fill" again, and I did. That is, put an oil pan under the drain plug and undo it with a 17mm spanner, then watch your expensive fluid fall back out again, you should get about 3 litres.  Then, put the drain plug back in, pump 3 litres back in through the fill plug with the fitting and pump, disconnect the fill fitting and replace the fill plug, start the car and run for another 3 minutes (making sure the temp is still under 40oC). The manual then asks for a 3rd "spill and fill" just like above. I also did that and so had put 13l in by now.  This time they want you to keep the engine running and run the transmission through R and D (I hope the wheels are still off the ground!) for a while, and allow the trans temp to get to 40oC, then engine off. Finally, back under the car and undo the fill plug to let the overfill drain out; it will stop running when fluid is at the top of the levelling tube. According to the factory, that is job done! Post that, I reconnected the fill fitting and pumped in an extra 0.5l. AMS says 1.5l overfill is safe, but I started with less to see how it goes, I will add another 1.0 litres later if I'm still not happy with the hot shifts.
    • OK, so regardless of whether you did Step 1 - Spill Step 2 - Trans pan removal Step 3 - TCM removal we are on to the clean and refill. First, have a good look at the oil pan. While you might see dirty oil and some carbony build up (I did), what you don't want to see is any metal particles on the magnets, or sparkles in the oil (thankfully not). Give it all a good clean, particularly the magnets, and put the new gasket on if you have one (or, just cross your fingers) Replacement of the Valve body (if you removed it) is the "reverse of assembly". Thread the electrical socket back up through the trans case, hold the valve body up and put in the bolts you removed, with the correct lengths in the correct locations Torque for the bolts in 8Nm only so I hope you have that torque wrench handy (it feels really loose). Plug the output speed sensor back in and clip the wiring into the 2 clips, replace the spring clip on the TCM socket and plug it back into the car loom. For the pan, the workshop manual states the following order: Again, the torque is 8Nm only.
