I have available 20" Chrome Spinners which I believe will fit Skyline, any one who has fitted 20 Wheels to Skyline might be able to advise the rim Width and Offset they run. My company imports these from the USA, we fit them mainly on SUV, however I am sure they would look mad on Skyline, have a look at the picture's attached and if any one wants to try out will do a special deal for the first one who gets me information in correct skyline PCD and ET in 20"

PCD = 5x114.3 (for 5 stud skylines, ie all turbo models)

Offset is different for GTR's, Gtsts and R32,33 and 34....

chaos - if they are something like that you'd want to make sure they had really good bearings and shafts mounting the outter assembly that spins.. Wouldn't want to be doing a good speed with these things on.

But if the outside isn't mounted separately then They're pretty cool. :cheers:

are these the wheels that when the car stops moving part of the mag still spins?

nah this aint them. I seen them on a 4x4 BMW down the coast was pretty mad stuff, thought this would be an american thing. You seen these before??

Yes they are! In fact these are commonly known as "Choppers". I was going to get em for the Benz, some 6months ago, but changed my mind. Well it good to see someones sellings these in AU. I really think they'll be a hit. Pretty pricy, in comparison but they look awesome when the car is stopped & the chopper is still spinning.

PS: If I remember correctly, I also think you can buy just the chopper which gets attached to your stock rim :D

I like them.. but you gotta have the car to match.

Theo fitted them to his X5 on the Coast and yeah they look the goods.. but I think he also came away with a defect for them.. (oh well)

would take a pretty special (different) skyline to make them really work. I tossed up fitting them to the Rx7 as it will also have a dedicated set of race rims..

and may still do so..

rim wise you are really going to get a set and see what you can do, what you are prepared to cut etc.. cos I don't see them fitting on and the car sitting nicely without significant mods..

and the car has to sit right over these.. or it will look terrible.

    • I'm back from the dyno - again! I went looking for someone who knew LS's and had a roller dyno, to see how it shaped up compared to everything else and confirm the powerband really is peaking where Mr Mamo says it should. TLDR: The dyno result I got this time definitely had the shape of how it feels on the road and finally 'makes sense'. Also we had a bit more time to play with timing on the dyno, it turns out the common practice in LS is to lower the timing around peak torque and restore it to max after. So given a car was on the dyno and mostly dialled in already, it was time for tweaking. Luis at APS is definitely knowledgable when it came to this and had overlays ready to go and was happy to share. If you map out your cylinder airmass you start seeing graphs that look a LOT like the engine's torque curve. The good thing also is if you map out your timing curve when you're avoiding knock... this curve very much looks like the inverse of the airmass curve. The result? Well it's another 10.7kw/14hp kw from where I drove it in at. Pretty much everywhere, too. As to how much this car actually makes in Hub Dyno numbers, American Dyno numbers, or Mainline dyno numbers, I say I don't know and it's gone up ~25kw since I started tinkering lol. It IS interesting how the shorter ratio gears I have aren't scaled right on this dyno - 6840RPM is 199KMH, not 175KMH. I have also seen other printouts here with cars with less mods at much higher "kmh" for their RPM due Commodores having 3.45's or longer (!) rear diff ratios maxing out 4th gear which is the 1:1 gear on the T56. Does this matter? No, not really. The real answer is go to the strip and see what it traps, but: I guess I should have gone last Sunday...
    • 310mm rotors will be avilable from Australia, Japan, and probably a few other places. Nothing for the front can be put on the back.
    • The filter only filters down to a specific size. Add to that, the filter is AFTER the pump. So it means everything starts breaking your pump even if its being filtered out.
    • Just like in being 14mm too small (296mm) makes it not fit, being 14mm too big (324mm) it also won't fit. You want to find the correct rotor.
    • @GTSBoy Ok so that was the shops problem...they showed R33 rotors on R34 page and i did not know 296 do not fit(and are for R33) Yes i bought "kit" with rotors and pads. Pads are ok(i have GTT calipers front and rear). They have some 324mm but no 310mm. So i dont know if they would fit. I have 17inch LMGT4s So another question. Can i fit those in the rear or they are just "too" big for that?
