If you look for the thread called Stagea Wheel Dimensions there is heaps of info in there about wheel sizes, what guys are running, and how they fit. Also bear in mind that manual and auto stageas have a different rear track, from memory the auto is wider so the widths and offsets of what they can fit is different

hai gunther, welcome. :D

i see you have bought a RSV rear wheel drive stagea, was it keirans yellow one?

yes my first turbo. yes its yellow. but its not keirans. i bought it off a guy in seville grove.

Ha ha ha, look like nice volk copies. :thumbsup:

yes they are. as much as i want te37's so bad i cant really afford them atm. :(

www.willtheyfit.com

pull off your current wheels and go searching for the offset and width of them

then measure how much more "poke" you want

then work it out from that website

guessing you'd have the auto rear cradle so you will want the 18x9.5 +22

Mate I know what I'm talking about. I worked for a place that imports them. We had a heap of problems with quality control as paint in each batch came out different colours.

so you mean you worked with origin-lab D1 parts manufacturers, that work with 7 tune, hellaflush etc in the US??

*tips hat

so where you getting your info from? sorry for my sarcasm. i think i know what you are talkn about from ns.com. a few places imported them from US cheap as the OZ dollar increased and ppl were virtually getting them at abargainn price including delivery. the real ones are forged and jap made. i heard some taiwan copies were getting around- not sure though.

sorry dudes i was MIA. very busy atm.

i did find some work VS wheels for 1k.

staggered 17x8's & 17X9's +35 on all fours.

i know its small as, but it will work on the look i will be trying to pull. all fits well rears are flushed but front needs a bit of work.

not too fussed with it.

    • roof rail delete used to be a thing, they were made locally for a while too
    • I can get more photos of it here soon and I plan to make a thread detailing the process. I received the car this way and it sorely needs refinishing. That is probably the most appealing photo of it. Up close it is fading, cracked, and needs to be re-glued. Depending on their condition I'm on the fence between refinishing or making a new set.  Another angle hiding the pimples and razor pumps  
    • According to this thread the RS4V with build plate RC40 comes with the R200 diff @ 4.083 ratio as well (mine has said RC40 denotation). We may need to check if the axle stubs are the same pattern as well. The auto subframes have longer axles. However I think yours being a later Series 2 as well, we should have the same bolt pattern for the diff stubs. Unless your upgraded rear also has upgraded axles. Either way, I would not be opposed to pulling the covers to check so I can inspect that  fancy rear core  Also I don't have HICAS. I don't believe that should change things but I hope the people here with heaps more experience than me can correct me if I'm wrong   Let me know if you want to attempt to make this work and I can get some pictures of mine from under the car. 
    • It's not that straightforward. For example I have had this code because my ignitor/power transistor wires were unplugged. It knows something is wrong but has no idea what it means. If you want to actually diagnose this I recommend following the service manual flowchart for code 21. Ohm out the harness, coilpacks, inspect the ECU, etc. And again, it's entirely possible for there to be no problem at all but if you're running a different coilpack it'll trigger the code because it doesn't like what it sees.
    • If it (the code) wasn't still current, it should have gone away by itself by now. No, nothing it 10/10. But it is quite likely. Everything else to do with the ignition could still be responsible (which is wires and connectors). The car is an old piece of shit now, so all the wires and connectors are also old pieces of shit.
