yep they are superlites and can be bought from any bob jane outlet

sizes are 15x7 15x8 15x10 16x7 16x8 can choose offsets from +4 to -4 on the x7's and 8's and -27 or something on the 10's

Thanks Guys , there is a wealth of knowledge on this site and im glad to be a part of it , it will really help in the future as i am planning to build this car in a bosozoku / shakotan japanese style i will start a build thread as soon as i have sourced all the parts

thanks again

:huh:

yea as soon as i discovered the shakotan /bosozoku style i had to do it minus the 8ft exhaust of course

my plan is as follows:

10inch rims 4 inches out the gaurds

overfenders

vented bonnet

huge twin pipes

large oil cooler (with pipes through the grill)

chin spoiler

and of course the hang ring on back bumper

iam budgeting around 4000 to do it properly

any input would be great....

ok so after a trip to bob jane t mart

i have discovered they do sell the rims i want

15x10 -26 (which if my calculation are correct, puts them just over 3inches out the stock gaurds ?)

with

215 60 r15 tyres (i was informed i should be putting inner tubes in with this much stretch any thoughts?)

so the damage all up will be

$1560

for me...its a Watanabe RS Type 8 spoke.....

http://www.rs-watanabe.co.jp/index2.htm....you can custom order from the manufacturer on the site....

i used to owned it to my KE70 Corolla..but here is the sample

215s on a 10" rim wouldn't be THAT much stretch I don't think mate? I run 225s on a 17x9.5 rim atm and it's pissweak in regards to the amount of stretch it could potentially handle. course i'm not factoring in the amount of sidewall you're playing with.

I reckon keep up your tyre pressures and you should be alright. tyre shops would know that type of shit though.

good for you anyway, zoku-cefiro is an AWESOME idea. I was the same when I first saw my taste of bosozoku stuff, more along the lines of the VIP style like that crown (i think it is). I've been trying to find a decent price on 15x10 steel bands so I can have just stock steely centres welded in. trouble is I'm not sure if i should put them on my ceffy or if i should put them on my 910 bluebird. decisions decisions...

either way. keep us up on the progress bro, it sounds like it's going to be a sweet looking sedan! here's a personal question though....

Are you considering *giggling* sharknosing it?

    • It would be different if the sealant hadn't started to peel up with gaps in the glue about ~6cm and bigger in some areas. I would much prefer not having to do the work take them off the car . However, the filler the owner put in the roof rack mount cavities has shrunk and begun to crack on the rail delete panels. I cant trust that to hold off moisture ingress especially where I live. Not only that but I have faded paint on as well as on either side of these panels, so they would need to come off to give the roofline a proper respray. My goal is to get in there and put a healthy amount of epoxy instead of panel filler/bog and potentially skin with carbon fiber. I have 2 spare rolls from an old motorcycle fairing project from a few years back and I think it'd be a nice touch on a black stag.  I've seen some threads where people replace their roof rack delete with a welded in sheet metal part. But has anyone re-worked the roof rails themselves? It seems like there is a lot of volume there to add in some threads and maybe a keyway for a quick(er) release roof rack system. Not afraid to mill something out if I have to. It would be cool to have a cross bar only setup. That way I can keep the sleek roofline that would accept a couple bolts to gain back that extra utility  3D print some snazzy covers to hide the threaded section to be thorough and keep things covered when not using the rack. 
    • Probably not. A workshop grade scantool is my go to for proper Consult interrogation. Any workshop grade tool should do it. Just go to a workshop.
    • In my head it does make sense to be a fuel problem since that is what I touched when cleaning the system. When I was testing with the fuel pressure gauge, the pressure was constantly 2.5 bar with the FPR vacuum removed. When stalling, the pressure was going up to 3.0 bar (which is how it should be on ignition).
    • ECUtalk pages don't mention they support the ABS computer (consult port has more than one CAN), so you might just need a different scan tool. But, I would expect ABS is a different light to the brake warning/handbrake light, do you see an ABS light come on for a few seconds when you turn the key from ACC to IGN? But since you said: I'd have a look at the ABS sensors in the rear hubs to make sure they are not damaged, disconnected etc.
    • OK, if it idles at 1000+ with the AAC, its not an idle airflow problem. The cold start valve just gives extra air when the engine is cold, but you have enough air without it to idle at 1000. I think you are back to a fuel problem, sorry. Can you see the fuel pressure staying constant or does it drop as the revs drop to a stall?
