im trying to find rims for my black r32 gtst

and im not sure what ones i want

ive got the black theme going on at the moment, black car, dark tints, black head lights.. so i need black rims

so im heading towards satin black

i want 18 inch and hoping for a fatter rim in the rear

i was looking at the bsa replica TE37's (satin black with red lip) but apparently they dont have a fatter rear rim

im looking at spending around 2500k - 3k

any help would be awesome, as this is the right place to ask

so can you guys post up some rims of what you reckon would look good

Thanks Ash

for 2.5-3k mate i'd be looking into some quality second hand japanese rims - as apposed to brand new copy rims

keep an eye on the forums, or if that fails there are a few brokers who will be able to help you with yahoo jap :laugh:

I dont think the GTC will suit 32 at all. Reason being GTC looks too fat for any sleek cars. Prefer multi spokes (more than 5) with dish for sleek cars. Look at Colin's 32GTR with XD9. :laugh:

I'll pimp this one for ya Tristan.

Oh yea. For that price. Dont bother with copies. Just get 2nd hand stuff and be on the look out on the for sale section. I got my LMGT4 for 3.4k with tyres.

Quoted for truth!

Here is an example from Yahoo Japan

600x450-2009031900010.jpg

18" x 8" +40 Front

18" x 9" +35 Rear

Estimated total price delivered to my work in Warriewood via sea (assuming it doesn't go any higher than minimum bid...) is $2,633.68

Stronger, lighter and hold their value longer than anything from Tempe ;)

EDIT

I probably should add that I found these via Import Monster, I am not a import broker :laugh:

party time! :laugh:

thats the idea!

however i'd argue those widths/offests aren't baller enough ;)

gtc's on r32 = epic fail

work meisters on r32 = epic fail.

black te37s on r32 = major win!!!

volk ce28's look phat too.

for the amount of coin you are looking at spending, i think you could easily get some second hand if not new jap rims.

and on a 32 17's look big if you have low profile 40 series tyres.. saving you some money over 18's.

Like I've recommended to anyone thats on a slightly lower budget. Get the Gramlight 57d. Price isnt bad for a Ray. But if I'm you, I'll keep a look out for import monster's website/post or just the forsale section.

For $3K why not get used TE37s of any colour, and then powdercoat them in black? Hopefully you can then find some in a proper offset and width, rather than the weaksauce ones that replica wheels inevitably come in to fit FWD econoboxes.

I've seen quite a few on the Yahoo! Japan auctions.

For $3k you can buy genuine & new - import them but be prepared to wait a while to receive them.

Rays CE28N in bronze or titanium silver.

OR

Rays RE30 in any of the three colours available - bronze, chrome silver or (for another 5000Yen - ouch) formula silver with a diamont-cut rim.

i agree bro... to many skylines with shit wheels to many with pimp wheels and fail offset / width and a very little selection with fitment.

for a gtst

go a 9.5-10 on the rear. 9.5 with a 225 or a 10 with 235 say like -1 camber with some guard work = hellaflush

9-9.5 up front with a nice offset like +15-17 with say a 215 to 225 will look good to.

for your 2-3k you can easily do that

    • So, version 4 intake is on its way I was looking at these a while ago but at around $200 or more it was a little pricey for something that might not work, but, I had it in my watch list, but, I got a message saying it was on special, and I had a code thingie to use, it eventually came in at $120 delivered, so BAM, BUY NOW.....LOL I'll need to have a look when it arrives but I feel it will "look" better than what I currently have, as it comes with a PCV fitting, so I will be able to get rid of the alloy pipe that goes to the throttle body with the PCV fitting  Well, that's what the voices in my head are telling me  Oh, and this happened today Yeap, it was a Trojan, and it was cheap, so I headed back to the hardware store and actually spent a little bit more on a heavy duty,  one that was actually recommended by a plumber mate, a Cyclone one with a fibreglass handle that is actually rated for clay The broken shovel will eventually be "modified" into a short handle shovel
    • When you pulled it off, there is no signs of blown head gasket? Is it possible you have some other issues going on? Possible cracked blocked? Or do you think it's straight up lifting the head? Did you check what the head was torqued to before pulling it down (To see if possibly they're stretching, or starting to break threads out etc)?
    • Seems like a decent result for a modded JZX110. They are bulky in comparison to the 100 and 90 models (which I'd prefer myself) but they are getting very few and far between here in JP these days. Thanks for the detailed review and the import process into the UK. I also have a car which I'm hoping to export from Japan at some stage so it's good to know if someone from the UK was interested in it. By the way the corrosion underneath is par for the course for cars which were located in/near the mountains or along the Japan sea coastline. They get huge amounts of snow every winter and the sodium chloride is used on the roads. Many cars have some kind of rubber like treatment underneath but they tend to limit it to the wheel arches underbody and fuel tank. Suspension arms and sub-frames will have similar corrosion to your JZX110 which is a common sight. See it all the time and car dealers here generally don't even mention it unless asked.
    • If the sound goes away when you clutch in, the 1.5/2 way diffs are just shit, and you are a normal person. The diff is likely "fine" but driving at anything under 30kmh is a violent horrible experience. It would be exaggerated with solid diff bushings and subframe bushings if you have those.
