I posted this up earlier today but for some reason its not visible anymore? Anyway as the title states I'm wanting to swap my 19's for a set of 18's or even 17's maybe with a bit of cash my way depending on the condition of the tyres. Personally I'm not fussed on the rims and the tyres can be a bit pricey so that's why I'm after something different. The rims are in excellent condition apart from very minor gutter rash on the front drivers side. Included in the swap is 4 lock nuts. The front rims are 19x8.0 and the rears are 19x9.0. The front tyres are federal super steel 595's 245/35 ZR19 with 75% tread. The rears are both a different tyre but with similar tread pattern. One is a Pirelli Pzero Rosso 275/30 ZR19 with about 30% tread and the other is a Falken FK452 275/30 ZR19 with about 50% tread. The front rims have about 15mm clearance from the brake calipers and the rears have about 5mm and I've never run into any problems with this setup. Any questions or if more pics are required feel free to call me on 0433373183. Thanks!

    • So, now all you need to do is connect the 2 or 3x 12v feeds into the unit to permanent 12v, ACC 12V and IGN 12V that you can find in the spot behind the stereo, and the earth, and then it will switch on with the car.
    • Yes then it will turn on but I want the car features to work  
    • My thought is if you were just moving it forward and the upstream geometry remained the same, then no difference at all. But because the current one has the filter direct into the AFM inlet, you effectively have the best chance of a completely symmetric air flow profile upstream, and in, the AFM, whilst the aftermarket inlet thingo has a (small, to be sure) bend between the filter and the AFM. That would bias the flow to the outside of the bend (downstream of the bend) which might well reduce the size of the signal seen by the AFM, for the same total flow rate. Having said that: If you're proposing to make your inlet look like a hybrid of your existing one and the aftermarket one, such that there is no bend where the filter is clamped on... then I say it will be just fine. If there is going to be such a bend, then, if you can align the insertion of the AFM blade such that it is at right angles to the plane of the bend, then there is a better than even chance that the centreline velocity where the blade is will remain more or less the same, and the velocity will just be a little faster to the outside of that, and just a little slower to the inside. **This is not professional investment advice and you should consult a suitably qualified ouija board, tea leaves or the intestines of a goat for more accurate prognostication.
    • Hi Tao, Thanks for your reply.  It's been a while and I managed to get the valve stem seals replaced with the head on the car.  Unfortunately this didn't solve my issue, the car still smokes a lot after idling (to be honest during idle you can see a bit of blue smoke from the exhaust), same after deceleration. I will try disconnecting the valve cover breathers, do I leave the PCV valve in? By engine oil drain pipe, do you mean the turbo oil drain?
    • What about if you just give it direct 12v and earth?
