Hey guys, recently purchased a pair of cheap 16's from user: "Drift Engage House". (Great seller i might add)

The wheels are great.. but as i said, their only a pair :).

They came silver, but after spraying them black i've really wanted to find a second pair!

Would greatly appreciate it if someone knew what rims they are or maybe what they came off stock.

are there any markings/stickers on them from when they were cast/produced?

theres just 16x7.5 and that usual logo on every rim, kinda like a j and and m of what i can recall. i think there were stickers on the back of the rim but its been half ripped off and no way of seeing what was on it.

that JWL is the symbol to signify it conforms to the relavant standards (Japan Light alloy Wheel) or something or other

as far as ttracking down a matching pair, i've been trying to find a match for my 16x8 linear sports for a while now with no luck. hopefully someone recognises them for you! good luck

hhrm maybe someone working at a tyre/wheel place could help a little

if you can find someone who really knows their stuff - they could possibly tell from some markings?

just an idea >,< :D

prepare to love mr eps.

they're OEM cefiro wheels.

they were also used on a few R31's..

i used to have a set of 4 haha

here - excuse the centrecaps

i dont think they are the same.

op's rims only have 10 spokes, where as the cefiro rims have 12.

update on why you should NEVER Love mr eps.

the forum is correct. eps failed hard

another dead give away is that the OP states they're 16x7.5

cefiro rims are 15.

if anybody needs me i'll be over here, being unpopular.

Haha, Mr Eps you got me excited, appreciate the interest though lol.

Still need to find out what these wheels are so i dont resort to spraying 2 of my stock wheels black!!

    • After using a protractor for an actually accurate assessment of what is required,  and by NOT using my uncalibrated eyeball I worked out I need a 25° silicone bend from the TB ro the MAF, but, my choice was either a 30° or a 23° (23° is a weird spec), so I grabbed the 23° one from Raceworks I also grabbed 1mtr of 3" straight from Just Jap, I needed 350mm, but they only had 300mm, or 1mtr lengths....meh Also ordered a 1/2" hose bulkhead fitting from fleabay, this has a smoothish mushroom looking head (they are designed for below the water line of boats) that will fit inside the bend, the hose bit and threaded bit looks to long, but nothing that a hacksaw cannot fix if required, the hose will then just get jamed on the threaded bit up to the retaining nut Fingers crossed and the unsightly amount of hose clamps will be reduced down to 4 once all the parts arrive 
    • Oil change does not trigger code 21. Code 21 is for coilpacks primary side connection. You can try to clear the code with a battery disconnect, hold down the brake pedal to drain capacitors through the brake lights with the ignition on for 10-15 seconds before you reconnect the battery. I have seen R35 coil conversion permanently cause this code with no ill effects so it might be the resistance it wants to see isn't quite right on one or more coilpacks. Could be inside the ECU, could be the harness, could be a coil. You can test it all if you want or just ignore until the car actually starts misfiring.
    • I forgot you have a Nistune ECU. Use Nistune to do all the tests I mentioned instead of faffing with 30+ year old electrical connectors. You can read MAF volts off that too, there are reference values in the service manual to tell you roughly what it should be in different conditions.
    • No. I think it might be the AFM. Hence the use of the terms "swaptronics", which implies the use of swapping out electronics for the purpose of diagnosis. It's about the only way to prove that a small/niggling/whatever problem with an AFM or a CAS or similar is actually caused by that AFM/CAS/whatever. A known good item swapped in that still gives the same problem is likely to be caused somewhere else. They're all the same. Spraying AFMs with cleaner is an each way bet between cleaning it and f**king it.
    • Oh wow! This might actually work amazingly. Do you know the ratio of the diff? I was told the only thing you need to make sure of is if the front & rear diff ratios are the same. Ours is a 4.083 Thanks!
