ok...so here's the deal. I'm planning on getting a set of Tenzo R Dc-5's in staggered fitment

19 X 8.5 +22

19 X 10 + 19

only trouble is, the only place that I could find in Australia that has stock of these wheels are tempetyres. I called them up, but they are not willing to sell them in staggered sizes

so I will need to get a full set of 19 x 8.5 (4 pieces ) and 19 X 10 (also 4 ..apparently these were specific for the GTR).

I'm not sure of the colours available, but I'm just putting it out there if anyone is interested in buying these with me and we can then swap 2 fronts and 2 rears to make 2 sets of staggered wheels.

Leaning towards maybe a timeattack white....but I'm open to any preference coz I can always get them powdercoated.

Also, another thing is .....most pictures of these wheels on the internet shows that the rims are straight faced and not concaved. The guys at wheelworx told me that with low offset, the wheels are actually a nice concave....so I was thinking get the 19 X 8.5 +22 first....and if its not to satisfaction....then sell them off and split the loss.

PM me if your interested.

nah....dude at tempe said he wouldn't sell them separately is coz its low volume stock and he doesn't want to end up with odd width rims that no ones else buys.

Pretty sure that there's plenty of forum members running staggered wheels and I've never heard of these being illegal, but you may be right.

maybe the reason they wont sell staggered size is because staggered widths are illegal unless thats how your car came from factory

Good thing he has a V35 then! 225/45R18 fronts, 245/45R18's rear!

      just an update to this, poor man pays twice  Tried sanding down the pulleys but it didnt do the trick. Chucked another second hand alternator in the na car which I got for free off my mate and its fixed the squelling. Must have been unlucky with the bearings.    As for my turbo car, I managed to pick up a cwc rb alternator conversion bracket + LS alternator for 250 off marketplace, looked to be in really good nick. Installed it , started the car and its not charging the battery.... ( Im not good with auto elec stuff so im not sure if this was all I needed to do but I verified such by using a multimeter on the battery when the engine was running and I was only getting 12.2v )   I had to modify the earth strap for the new LS alternator , factory earth strap was a 10mm bolt which did not fit the bolt on the LS alternator which was double the size so I cut it off , went to repco bought some ring terminals that fit, crimped it onto the old earth strap and bolted it up to the alternator , started the car and same issue. Ran like shit and was reading 12.2 at the battery.  For a "plug and play" advertised kit thats not very plug and play but alas.  My question is , am I missing something ? Ive been reading that some people recommend upgrading the stock 80 amp alternator fuse to a 140 amp but I dont see how that would stop the alternator charging especially at idle not under load.  Regardless ive pulled it out and am going to get it bench tested by an auto elec tomorrow but it would be handy to know if ive missed something silly or have done something wrong.

      My wild guess is that you have popped off an intake pipe....check all of the hoses between the turbo and the throttle for splits or loose clamps.

      To provide more specific help, more information is needed. What Android screen? What is its wiring diagram? Does the car's wiring have power at any required BAT and ACC wires, and is the loom's earth good?
