hey going back a few months now i bought a set of these 18's off a guy in a car yard that was selling the car they were on.. after having them on the car for about 12hours i skipped the car sideways into a corner of a gutter hitting it straight on with the front left(also took out the back left).... so now i dont know what they're called or where to find 2 new rims. im in no big rush as iv got new rims.. but i wouldnt mind finding another 2 rims so i can make a complete set again

here's a pic of 1 of the gutter bashed rims

They look like Altstadt copies.

Why don't you tell us the brand printed on that centre cap to reduce the amount of guessing?

i was hoping that some1 new what they were without the centre cap as some1 told me that they dont belong to these rims but heres a pic of the cap

going about 30-40k's an hour.. was in a dodge back street roundabout.. was really bumpy and it skipped my car side ways into the corner.. wasnt the best thing iv done but iv got new rims now.. iv still got 2 perfect rims in the shed out the back tho that are only like 12hours old.. its such a waste would be good to find another 2 to make a set

    • I mean it's a bit late to say "This won't have any tangible effect and it is not worth spending more than about three seconds on it, please just enjoy the car" But I said it anyway. Does the pod actually get any airflow in that position behind a bumper like that?
    • Hey guys - apologies for digging this up. Has this website been shutdown or is the outage temporary?
    • So, went shopping at Just Jap for things that might work for the intake  After some trial fitting there I ended up with a 3" x 45° silicone bend, a 3" x 300mm alloy straight, and a humped joiner, some minor trimming will be required to shorten some of the stuff, but nothing that is beyond my "ham fisted" skills The guy at Just Jap was most helpful as we had all sorts of joiners,  bends and stuff out trial fitting  Laying it out above the stuff in there it seems everything will fit nicely, and looking at it, it is probably the way I should have been looking at doing it from the beginning, probably..... In the end it is a front bar off job anyway to remove the original stuff behind the front bar that is taking up the required realestate needed, so maybe a Thursday or Friday job And because I'm a hopeless consumer, I grabbed some new steel wheel nuts, the current ones are a spline drive type with a "security" socket, that somehow someone keeps misplacing, the new ones are a basic black steel 17mm hex socket In other news: I just did my "final" tax return, I am now officially a old retired veteran pensioner, and I'm milking the system for all it's worth,  life is good
    • I hadn't thought about the variable power steering assist. Presumably, it will always be the same level of assist as you get in an S14. The R32/3/4 are either helliishly heavy (at low speeds) if the solenoid is not powered at all, or hellishly too light (at high speed) if it is powered all the time. I presume that it is PWM controlled on those cars. I hadn't thought about the S cars not having variable assist. ugh. What crappy plebby cars they must be!  
    • Hmm yeah that is a good point. It looks like it'll just bolt in with no real issue besides maybe the bushings being different. My other concern was that 2 pin plug that I assume is used in some way to control the rack solenoid depending on the speed signal from the ecu. The DMAX rack doesn't even have that plug though so, don't think it'll matter. Might just order the rack and see how it goes. Will update this when I figure something out
