Hey all,

I am putting up for sale the rare Apex'i rims that come on my R33 GTR. As the topic states they are a genuine APEX'i rim, which i didnt even know they made rims. These are a VERY light weight rim so perfect for track work. They are a 3 piece rim and of very good quality. they have minor wear marks on them but for a fee on top of sale price i can have them reco's to be as new, including new paint and polished dish's.

They are 5x114.3 PCD so all skylines pcd. They are about 9.85" so dunno if that classifies them as a 9.5" or a 10" rim???? They come fitted with federal 595 tyres which are suitable to drive on but have camber wear as most skylines do.

Not sure of the offset but they are on my GTR so if they are a 9.5" i would amagine the offset is somewhere around +20? i have included photos of them on my car so you can see fitment.

Wheels located in SE suburbs of Victoria but can organise freight anywhere for the right buyer as i have a frequently used freight company with my work.

Given the extremely rare availability of these rims i am selling for $1500 firm. They are true JDM wheels to set of any skyline.

Thats not how you measure rim width.

Its actually measured from the bead itself.

Its generally 1inch less than the outside width, which you have measured.

Yeah mate, still on my GT-R, They were on the car when I bought it, Don't know too much about them, not alot of info on the web that I've seen, They are pretty darn light I want to get the tyres off so i can weigh them properly, Do yours come with a little sticker on the inside of the wheel in jap ?

On another note,

People looking at these wheels the awesome offset they come with, they can naturally fill out a GT-R guard without requiring spacers !!!

      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?

      Intro/R33 owner

      By f00stx · Posted

      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).

      Second time Skyline owner (R33 GTS-T and now a V36 370GT)

      By f00stx · Posted

      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).

      Jacks that fit under GTR lips that can reach the subframe?

      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.
