If they are indeed fake, I prefer to just get a refund as I don't want to pass them onto someone else. Here are some pictures that I took. http://www.flickr.com/photos/67594052@N08/6147016082/ Have a look through the photos. The first one shows the centre of the lug nuts and if you look down the centre, it is not uniformly red.. it seems to fade out as if they did a poor job of spraying them. The second picture is of the attachment for the lock nuts. There is nothing engraved on the attachment and also the inside of the attachment seems to be not sprayed properly. The rest of the images are little dents/scratches/imperfections that I noticed EACH being on a DIFFERENT nut. Judging by the overall quality, I find it hard to believe that these are genuine.

If you do a search on Ebay, there are plenty of RAYS wheel nuts going for around $60 plus postage...and there are ones that cost $250 all australian sellers too. so you have been warned...the fakes are out there. Hieumungus..the one you posted is definitely not genuine.

go lodge a claim with Paypal and get your money back,

i would fell sorry if the seller honestly thought they were genuine as he would be stuck with quite a few sets of lug nuts now lol

So someone proved they were fake? I missed that bit??

Nate, the pictures on my flickr show the poor quality nuts that I received. I'm not sure if yours are the same but I ordered two sets and both of them were of crap quality and I had a few mates who ordered some too and got pretty much the same.

Just a question to those that decided to use these lug nuts on their cars. Any issues with them? I've been trying to get a refund for mine but since Ty is refusing to give me a refund until my mate withdraws his paypal dispute, I might not ever get a refund and might have to consider using them.

    • Power steering is probably because someone has nuked the HICAS CU and you no longer have the variable power asist doing what it is supposed to. How much boost are you running? You are aware that any more than 10 psi on the stock ECU is just asking for it to go to full R&R (that's Rich & Retard, which is effectively Retarded and Retarded!) which kills all the power. Depending on the exact conditions, it can just be runnign on the fat and stupid end of the maps, then the conditions change, you make a little more boost and the ECU goes into panic.
    • @BuiltNotBought Just as GTSboy said.   If you want driveabilty and more low down torque..keep the stock runners. They are VERY good from a factory. I have them too on my RB25DET NEO and as a GTSboy i have fmic but with stock piping route(i have Blitz intercooler) Iam making around 320 BHP and the car pulls "hard" from like 2,5k all the way to 7k. I have it dyno tuned to mimic N/A power curve and making little less max torque due to the smallbox tranny. But driveability is very great. I had 350Nm below 3k so car feels very quick.
    • Looking to sort out a couple of issues on my skyline  It recently was rebuilt, however rebuilder long story short did not give two flying effs about the work he did. So moving forward it's running but I have two persistent issues 1) it has a misfire / lag type of issue (was at higher RPMs but I had a dead piggy back ecu removed which improved it) now it's not as bad but still does it at random, I thought it may have been a boost issue I'm running an older turbosmart dual stage controller, turbosmart told me to try running off gate pressure however it still has a lag at random times. It has New MAF, maf plug, coil packs, sparks, CP harness.. injectors tested and cleaned. Factory ECU. 2) Power steering issue. It is tight as anything. Flushed power steering, rebuilt my pump because the bearing was shot. Flushed again still tight (mainly when parking and going slow into my driveway etc)  No kinks in hard lines, replaced the lines I could see had cracks. Still tough to steer.  I was told to shim a coin and place into the solenoid plug? Is there anything else. My steering angle sensor also has a issue. It's a used one I replaced, does it need to be calibrated? I feel like I've tried everything and this car is my voodoo doll.   
    • Holy shit... wow!!! I totally missed this
    • One main filter. Each tank has a prefilter to keep rocks and small children out, then the big main filter that also does water separation. Clogged the first one so bad it was like a rev limiter at 3200rpm. Literally just like dropping the throttle off and maintaining rpm!
