Hi folks,

I'm wanting a set of wheels that look better than stock R33 GTR wheels which I currently have.

Budget is up to $1.5k give or take, would pay bit extra should it come with tyres - I know it isn't much but I'm up for a challenge in finding something unique and 'left field' rather than going the usual Volk TE37/Work Meisters & Emotions, etc route.

I'm wanting at least 18x10 +20 or thereabouts, (If you do happen to have Rays Volk TE37 Fortessr in 19s which I once had a set that you're keen on selling, I may be keen - only sort of TE37 I would consider) however if you do have very tough 17s or 19s I might give it a shot.

However, it MUST clear factory Brembos without spacers. Prefer for the wheels NOT to be black or dark coloured that may blend in Midnight Purple GTR.

I'm located at Melbourne.

Hope you've got what I may be looking for.

Thanks in advance.

Grant

p.s. I don't want to hear you saying 'why not get Rota/Lenso/Vaarosten's?' basically, if I wanted these 'wheels' I could of have bought them already without writing this thread.

maybe also hitup importmonster and see if they have something coming in within ur budget

Planned to see Aaron today but ran out of time and will ask him and see what we can do.

Mosullivan, you're asking how much for the Advans?

I have a set of wheels, 18x10 +18 im after 1k. They are currently apart to have the centers powercoated but I have since moved on and sold the car. I will PM you some pictures later on. Price is for wheels not powercoated and with no tyres.

    • Bit of a pity we don't have good images of the back/front of the PCB ~ that said, I found a YT vid of a teardown to replace dicky clock switches, and got enough of a glimpse to realize this PCB is the front-end to a connected to what I'll call PCBA, and as such this is all digital on this PCB..ergo, battery voltage probably doesn't make an appearance here ; that is, I'd expect them to do something on PCBA wrt power conditioning for the adjustment/display/switch PCB.... ....given what's transpired..ie; some permutation of 12vdc on a 5vdc with or without correct polarity...would explain why the zener said "no" and exploded. The transistor Q5 (M33) is likely to be a digital switching transistor...that is, package has builtin bias resistors to ensure it saturates as soon as base threshold voltage is reached (minimal rise/fall time)....and wrt the question 'what else could've fried?' ....well, I know there's an MCU on this board (display, I/O at a guess), and you hope they isolated it from this scenario...I got my crayons out, it looks a bit like this...   ...not a lot to see, or rather, everything you'd like to see disappears down a via to the other side...base drive for the transistor comes from somewhere else, what this transistor is switching is somewhere else...but the zener circuit is exclusive to all this ~ it's providing a set voltage (current limited by the 1K3 resistor R19)...and disappears somewhere else down the via I marked V out ; if the errant voltage 'jumped' the diode in the millisecond before it exploded, whatever that V out via feeds may have seen a spike... ....I'll just imagine that Q5 was switched off at the time, thus no damage should've been done....but whatever that zener feeds has to be checked... HTH
    • I think Fitmit had some, have a look on there (theyre Australian as well)
    • Hah, fair enough! But if you learn with this one you can drive any other OEM manual. No modern luxury features like auto rev-matching or hillstart assist to give you a false sense of confidence. And a heavy car with not that much torque so it stalls easily. 
    • Actually, I'd say all three are the automatic option. Just the different trim levels. The manual would be RSFS, no?
