Hey all,

I wanted to offer my rims to the ACT guys first before putting them up for sale elsewhere.

I have sold the R33 to a mate without the rims/tyres as they are worth too much.

My Volk GT-C Face 2 rims in 18 * 8 fronts and 18 * 9 rears with near new Federal RS-R tyres (235s on front, 265s on rear) are one of the best looking rims I've seen. They fit the R33 GTS-T superbly and were legally engineered for use on my R33. They went through Dickson twice without trouble.

I will get the offsets for you all tomorrow but for now I have just photos:

I'm chasing $3500 for all 4 with the RS-R tyres (which are $1700 on their own). This will include the hubcentric rings, carbon volk center caps and volk nuts with volk lock nuts.

Cheers

Sam

I've wanted these wheels ever since i 1st saw them on the car, years ago. they are easily one of the best rims i've ever seen on an R33! the photos dont them justice. you gotta see these in the flesh...

Good luck with the sale....

They're 17x9" I believe. Currently got a set of 235/17/45 (I think that's the measurements) Maxxis tyres. Mostly legal (bar some lame camber wear on the rears)...plenty of tread depth.

haha I don't even know if I should be considering it, I already owe him $180 rofl

let me know. Couldnt really care about the tyres, as my current set are 235/45's and I'd just swap them over. Would be interested to know what their offset is, so I can figure out if they won't look as fail as my front rims do at the moment.

Damned if I know, I could name a figure but it's probably wrong. What size are they anyway, not sure on my 33 rims sizes, I do know though they look halfway decent on a 32 though.

Looks more than halfway decent :D

    • 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
