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?

    • I wasn’t able to replicate the sound anymore. It was a one time sound so maybe it was just coincidence but it was like small pebbles being dropped in a coke can.   should I try cleaning the MAF? It could be it’s functioning but dirty? I don’t know.
    • Update 4: Hi all. The car drives again! Haven't driven for long, only to store it in the garage again, but the test drive was successful. The coolant and oil leaks seem to be fixed for now. Temps on the engine were also very good, while moving I never even saw 80C water during the approx. 30 minute drive. Ate up all the coolant in the reservoir though so will have to fill that even more when I go to the car next time. One thing that pisses me off is that the RPM gauge is still f**ked, I even resoldered the board twice and used copper paste on the silly screws that are used as connections. Next time I take it out I'll take apart the board and fit new components, I'll see if I can get a replacement IC for it.  I have an appointment set for 22nd of September for the engine tune to 370hp. Alignment also still needs to be done. My hope is that I can get all the legal stuff over with by the end of this season. Anyone of you have advice regarding intercoolers? Currently there is an APEXI core fitted, one of those weird hybrid ones, 600x270x76. I don't think it's bad but it's not new and now I still have the chance to change it now to legally include it in the paperwork. Only issue is that the only options that would arrive in time are a HKS Type R intercooler or generic Ebay spec intercoolers comparable to a JustJap one. Ideally I'd order a Plazmaman but it takes over a month to receive which would mean making the car legal has to wait until next season. Would love to hear some input on this. Same story for my injectors, the previous owner was a nunce and put ID 1050x on the engine. They work but are obviously not ideal at "normal" power levels. But I don't see a reason to change them unless the tuner says it's necessary. I read online before buying a different exhaust that the top secret style rear diffusers won't fit due to the size of the rear resonators. My buddy and I made it work by slightly "adjusting the shape" of the mounting bracket and making some spacers out of 3d print for the mounting bolts. Fits like a charm. Just putting this here in case someone has this problem. Even the hefty HKS Silent Hi Power rear can fits without hitting anything.
    • Well they got my money but they are not getting my gearbox ! 
    • It's needed for rolling idle up, and I think it is a decider on VCT also.
    • I mean, not really. Link ECU's can absolutely still have errors from the ECU thinking it's getting a sensor it's not expecting. I would imagine the speed at the ECU level in Nistune does absolutely nothing anyway? I assume the ECU does not do any fancy TC stuff with regards to front+rear wheel speed or anything of that like anyway. Someone who uses Nistune may be more fluent in it.
