Where does one purchase his dubs?

sorry for wasted post but that phrase combined with your avatar made me crack up for some reason.

but i guess i could try and redeem this post by saying that if your looking, import monster sells discounted sets. Im not sure if they're secondhand as i havnt looked to deeply into it but..... http://www.importmonster.com.au/shop/

Import Monster FTW!

Helps you can go down there in person and see the wheels next to/on the car, or at least get a good idea of what a similar wheel will look like, offsets etc.

Added bonus of having a well priced place in Vic/Aus as opposed to guessing something over the net/yahoo and not being happy.

I'm down there a fair bit, as are other SAU-Vic members I see when I go for my little visits :ermm:

Hmmm. Might have to go down and take a squizz.

They just had 2 containers come in over the last week and a bit too... so farken HEAPS of rims to checkout :ermm:

They are SAU Traders as well, so checkout their section as i know Aaron chucked some of what he had into his section late last week.

import monster, tyre power hawthorn or OTR depending on your location out of the 3 (import monster would be the best bet as they are 2nd hand rims so a bit cheaper, quality is still up there though most look new)

last time i had to get some parts at OTR the focal point of the rims was a brand new set of 18x11 +18 te37 SL model looked awesome but $$$$$$

edit: yeah J-imports too, thanks Chad :ermm:

yeh j-imports, import monster is great i was there friday he has heaps of stuff in stock, or you can suss out local classifieds private sales good wheels there too.. jesse streeter is an option which means getting em from japan can be cheaper but takes longer.

failing on that bob jane.

Import Monster.

There is no substitute.

Import Monster & Aaron will go to the ends of the earth to find you any rim you want. Their service and price is second to none. I have used them many times and will be using them in the next few days :action-smiley-069:

Tyre Power hawthorn look after SAUvic Members

Yeah, I have seen a few "Tyre Power Hawthorn" Stickers on a few rear quarter windows.

OTR Motorsport is good and I heard Jesse Streeter decent as well.

    • Just trying to get my head around this. At 5psi of boost, you turn on your wmi pump, and then you're using a 3000cc injector, to allow flow upto the actual engine, where you have your 6x200cc injectors and a 500cc injector. If the above is correct, what advantage are you obtaining by having the 3000cc injector blocking flow, is this just incase a line breaks between that injector and the motor you can stop flow immediately? Or are the 6x200cc and 500cc less injectors and just spray nozzle?
    • Welcome! New member myself, but I had an R33 back in 2002. Best advice I could give, based on my experience: if you're running the factory turbo, be very conservative with boost. I made the mistake of just fiddling around with the boost controller and cranking the boost for fun, and the end result was my intake pipes popping off frequently from the constant deluge of oil that was being blown into the recirc by the stressed-out turbo, which itself was siphoning oil from the engine and farting it out both sides of its centre bearing (or something to that effect). If I could do it all again, I would have gotten a new turbo and had a tune dialled in professionally and then just left it alone! Funny you mention the metal shavings in the gearbox, as I had the same thing - the probe plug (magnetic drain plug, essentially) would come out caked with shavings. At least it was doing its job. Not sure if that's just sacrificial wear and part of the deal, or if my gearbox was shagged, but I wasn't abusing it. Enjoy the R33 - they're a dying breed, and if they weren't $35k+ on CarSales in Queensland, I might have picked up one of those again, instead of the 370GT I own now (though I'm loving the 370GT, that big 3.7L V6 just hits different).
    • Howdy folks. I owned an R33 back in 2002, which was thoroughly beyond my capacity (financially speaking) to maintain/insure, so we parted ways in 2004. Fast forward 21 years (to literally yesterday, in fact) and I'm now the proud owner of a 2007 V36 370GT. I'm happily surprised by how much power the VQ37VHR makes, compared to the RB25DET, considering the latter is turbocharged. I had planned to add a turbo at some point but I'm on the fence about whether I'll even need it (though I do love the sudden onset of extra torque). Any other 370GT owners around the traps, I'd love to hear about your experiences with this car (good and bad).
    • Perhaps the answer is... more jacks!* *proper jacks must be used.  
    • I NEVER think about using a scissor jack unless there is absolutely no other alternative. f**king things are dangerous, annoying and stupid.
