Not that I know the car, but wouldnt 15" be much tougher and better fit?

That 240Z that everyone knows (the rusty one) runs 15x10 and 15x11..... the article is on speed hunters:

I would say they will fit fine. I had 17x7+38 on the C210 coupe years ago, the offset on those rims MAY make it close to or touch the outer lip of the guard but a minor roll would fix that if it was an issue. not saying it will be, but that would be where they would hit if at all. But as always, a trial fit is always the best way to go.

I dont think 10 and 11 inch wide wheels are an option with out flares. Guards have all been rolled before the paint went on.

That 240 is ridiculous and awesome but must have next to no suspension travel what so ever, I live in the country and have to drive on roads, real roads that have bumps and stuff. I just think that the 17's will suit the ride hight better then a set of SSR MKIII in 15 x 8 -11 that I've been eying off and have much love forworship.gif

All depends on these $$$ at the end of the day to what I'll end up running with.

This is the car I was talking about, similar wheels to what I'm looking at but with gold centers

Those tyre fitments WILL NOT under any circumstances pass registration authorities in ANY STATE in Australia. Outside of that simple fact Dan lives in NSW where we have to pass a roadworth inspection every year & we have gestapo style highway patrol police that just lurv anything that looks just a tad boy racer, so I would think he would not bother with the hassles. Further, did you ever look past the pictures, 225/25 tyres on a 15 x 11 wheel & 205 on a 15 x 10??? How absurd is that when he could fit easily 16 x 8 & 9 under his body, without flares and carry 245/45 tyres, or maybe for economics, 225/50 all round.

JMHO

Id be keen on the details if you decide to pass them up.

There on ebay brother, try your luck. volks vx ss. I prolly cant afford them but will watch and see what happens.

Will keep it for know, not enough intrest to persist with selling, not going to give it away.

    • HELP   Hey all, Is there an accelerator cable from another Nissan that can be used on the R33 GTST RB25DET with a Greddy forward facing plenum?  Thanks in advance  Rob 
    • Or do we think it was installed to give 1 bar of boost max, all day, everyday?
    • So could it be assumed it has been installed intentionally with potentially a power FC boost controller kit? 
    • Had my rig on Matt's dyno at PITS the other day. After a few years between tunes I added a few sensors and swapped intercoolers. Result. 553hp at 26psi. Not bad for an FJ20 that was built in 2007. The problem.. It filled the overflow bottle on hard runs which leads me to believe the head gasket isn't sealing. I have a coolant pressure sensor which was reading cap pressure at 22psi and occasionally overrunning to 23/24 psi on deceleration after a pull. It was not spiking. It has arp2000 head studs and a cometic gasket. As its been 18 years in service, I pulled the engine out and head off. Everything looks good but we obviously have an issue. Where I'm at.. Years ago I had the same issue, I checked the stud tension and they were all over the place. Some at 60 to 70 and some up near 90. I nipped them all to 100ft lbs and this stopped the water push until now. I believe this compromised the gasket back then. What do I do? 2 options are..  1) I bought arp 625+s, which I could put in with a new gasket. Thinking Kameari this time, reassemble and try again. 2) strip the block, get fire rings machined in with copper gasket and try that. I do not want to push it more than 28 to 30psi. I think the turbo will be out by then anyway. (G30-770). My other concern is the long term ability of a copper head gasket. Are they streetable for years? I feel like a new gasket with the new studs will probably suffice, but I don't know. Any thoughts welcome and advice on copper gaskets and fire rings. Thanks!
    • I'm a fan of the JZX110, and the Aristo. Big cruiser cars, and with the factory cars, super comfortable and feel like you're driving an armchair! And the JZ motors are a pretty nice engine too, especially with some basic mods.   The import process, and the need to be able to trust people, and the fact there's so many scammers around is what ever puts me off wanting to go through that ordeal!
