for the ultimate jap racing bling check out the KEY!S wheels. http://www.cardome.com/keys/op03.shtml

I'm rocking one in the 33 GTR atm. it sure is 'out there' but feels great and I am a massive wanker anyway so the little stars stitched into the rim don't bother me...

yeah baby.

Which boss kit did you use and where did you buy from?

they are the same bolt pattern as nardi wheels. there are only basically 2 types in the world of aftermarket road car wheels nardi type or momo type. all other wheels fall into one of those. most boss kits these days will fit both. they are both 6 bolt and just have a slightly different pcd and different pattern. the only other types are basically open wheeler or go kart wheels.

the easy way to tell. if it has a bolt on the centre line above and below the horn button it's momo type. if it has no bolt on the centre line (like the key!s wheel) but instead has 2 bolts above and below the horn button then it's nardi type.

i bought the KEY!S wheel in japan.

It certainly is brov, it is the new version of that exact wheel, except it is all black and the grip itself is fully leather

here is the link to where I bought mine.

let me know if you want a pic of it in car.

I bought this little puppy,,,. I'm going to buy a really cheap rubbish one to interchange so I never put my dirty grubby hands on it.

I know how you feel Lol.

I put my Nismo on and I wanted to leave the little shower cap type plastic surround it came in on !

Did you put that bad boy in your 33 or the Radical ?

I'm sure you know this but with velour/felt type wheels if you don't use gloves the acid in your skin will deteriorate the surround super fast.

That Nismo one is pretty damn cool mate !!!. e-bay has some really cheap rubbish ones on there so I'm thinking I'll buy another quick release and use it to move the car around.

Definately going on the Skyline,,,the Radical has a very sweet little number (260mm) with a real race car release. I have some pics I think,,,yes here you go

The 2nd pic shows the spacer I had to make so I could get the wheel closer to me. I was getting wrist soreness very badly and after speaking to Malcolm Oastler at bathurst he suggested I do it. Fixed my problem straight away.

I never drive with out gloves,,but it's good reminding for anyone that doesn't.

Cheers

    • They are under bucket shims. Tomei provides a test shim kit and then any measurement of shim required. 
    • I always wondered how you were supposed to buy a set of 24 buckets and somehow magically have every single one of them yield exactly the desired clearance. I would have thought you'd need to assemble a cam with either 12 "sample" or "example" buckets of known top thickness (or a single such sample/example 12 times over!!) measure clearances at every valve, and then do the usual math to work out what the actual "shimness" of each bucket needed to be, before buying the required buckets to make up he thicknesses that you didn't have on hand.
    • I now seem to be limited in power due to my rev limit/hydraulic lifters in my built RB25. I'm looking into converting over to Tomei solid lifters. Question for anyone that has done the conversion. I was always under the impression that when using the Tomei solid lifter conversion, you would also require new valves (Longer or shorter stems, I can't remember which).  I don't know where I got this idea, as so far I see no mention of this in any of the Tomei documentation. It just states I need the Tomei solid buckets, solid lifter cams and upgraded springs. As my head is already built, all I would need is another set of 1000$ Kelford cams, 500$ buckets and about 4H hours of my time installing and I'm off to the races!?!? There's no way it's that simple, I must be missing something? 
    • I couldn't agree more. I should have started from the get-go with a NEO or solid bucket conversion. I started looking into converting over to solid lifters yesterday. Now for some reason I was always under the impression that when using the Tomei solid lifter conversion, you would also require new valves (Longer or shorter stems, I can't remember which).  But I see no mention of this on any of the Tomei documentation.
