Hey Guys/Girls, I've seen this type of thread on a few forums now and thought if we could have one here.

If you have any Rims that you consider RARE, please post a Picture of it (Name/Spec would also help).

Rare Rims should be Rims that are "Hard To Find For Sale", not Hard to find in your area :P !

Please avoid posting common rims :thumbsup: .

If you see any Rare Rims Posted that you feel is Not Rare, then please Post a Valid/current link to the RIM.

Finally, if you have Rare Rims that are for sale, then please Post Them with link to the 'For Sale' Thread.

Hope This Turns Out well :(

I'll start it off with what I consider to be "Rare", here is a set called 'Sparco Racing/Crimson.Inc', 17" Rims, rears are a bit more dish. I might put these for sale soon!

ADVAN RG-1

Gold colour on black R34 GT-R with +12 offset. 18" rim is a fairly light weight about 8.5Kg I think.

Not sure about rarity - I guess I just don't see many around.

What is rare though?

Rims you don't see anymore?

Rims that are discontinued?

Rims that were manufactured decades ago?

All of the above 3 :D , good way to describe it. I should've included that in the first post :D

Enkei NT03s, 18x9.5 +15. They have "R34 GTR Nur" stamped into them around the mounting holes. Discontinued years ago..

still waiting to mount these.

wow... i just wet myself.... they are some nice rims.

i love my Panasport G7's.. circa early 90's, not made anymore... difficult to find in decent sizes and offsets, they went through a stage a few months ago where you could barely give them away... all of a sudden they are old school and worth a bit... i found 2 sets to mix and match and am always on the lookout for more.

Advan TCII. Great rim, very light weight, plenty of brake clearance, good looking and come in nice widths.

Because I currently have them on my car. Funny thing is I had no idea what they were when I bought my car (neither did the seller), turns out they're worth nearly half as much as the car itself!

X 2 For the ADVAN TC2's

I've got a set of 18x10.5's in gold and very light and extremely hard to get even in Japan.

You guys would cry if you knew how little I paid for them in Japan...very, very cheap and brand new from Yokohama.

I'll try post up some pics when the car arrives from Japan, hopefully soon.

Also have a set of Enkei RPO5's (Silver/Chrome) which are for daily driving.

Bit heavy but actually look pretty good on a white GTR33..

    • The spray cans were in the "Kiln" room whilst I was preping the parts,  so probably around 2 hours to get them warmed up, the kiln room has 3 small ovens running at 100°c, 3 medium sized ovens running 100°c, and the large one I used running at 80°c, the room itself was about 28°c, I also spent a bit of time taping up the parts in the room as well, and by the time I was done I would assume that the parts were around that 28°c As for power, I expect a couple of Killerwasps up high would be achievable with the current mods, I'm still running the MZR 2.0 intake and throttle body, and there is a slight mismatch with the 2.0 intake (smaller) and 2.5 intake ports (larger) on the head, this intake is matched and specifically designed to fix this issue with the ports mismatch, the throttle body is also a couple of mm larger, OEM is 65mm, the Bosch is 68mm In the end it will look "prettier" than the molded plastic thing that is the OEM MZR 2.0 intake As for the LSD, it's the OEM Torsen which works fine for what I use the car for, plus, basically no maintenance apart from the occasional oil change
    • I was at Tunehouse in Marrickville (great team over there really know their VR's) , and I spotted this Very clean R35.  
    • Mate , I have the same issue right now with the exhaust noise , if you can tell me what your local guy did , I'll talk to my guys and see if they can do the same. Power is good but it just too loud when put it down. 
    • The other trick I've found with wrinkle black is to put the can in hot water for a bit to warm the paint up, and to pre-heat whatever you're painting. It'll be interesting to see if you pick up any power with the intake, following with interest. Got a proper lsd for this?
