Don't listen to Hamish mate he's angry at the world and the popularity of D1Rs. They are a great looking wheel, but like all cheap wheels, will have your wheel balance issues above 100km/he unless you get frequent wheel balancing.

I get cheap wheel balancing and alignment so not a major issue on that front. Just can't decide on which one to go for. Dish or concave? In terms fo fitment they'll both be pretty similar going by pics.

Do like. but dont like the outter bolts. paint that shit black.

as for gloss or matte... matte will probs go out of fashion soon

True that mate, good point. Might consider getting the studs black too, didn't think of that.

If the wheels are brand new in matte black, is it as simple as getting a place to clear coat them to make them gloss? Or do they ahve to strip the matte off and re-colour in gloss black?

Ahhhh I was thinking the exact same Varrstoens as what you've got but the only offsets they offer are +20 which, believe it or not, are too aggressive for the fat VE guards. A bloke had 19" Varrstoens like yours on his VE and he eneded a lot of guard work apprently. Tough look though.

you can get custom offsets made just email them thats what i did got custom up front

Really?!?! f**k yeah! Do I contact the aussie distributor or Varrstoen directly?

And do they do them in 20s? 19s Are too small for the big VE body :(

Pulsar is up and running, hopefully pick it up tomorrow. Will put up a vid of first start tonight. nothing sounds better than lumpy cams and an incorrect base idle. aw yeah.

Engine will make track debut at Sandown Christmas

Dat silent exhaust tho

needs straight pipes :woot:

haha it's loudish up in the revs under load but I like the silent killer spec atm :D

straight pipes is just stupid loud some people on forums have done it lol

    • Yeh I think i'll message an old contact i had for ages that manages his own tyre shop now.. n tell him what i want n work with him before ordering..  Got this 17x9 +30 Driftteks on 245/45/17 PSR Drag Radials on the rear.. They fit well - for your reference in future - Rear guards  have been lipped in & minimal to non flaring of the rear Gaurds.    
    • If only it were that easy! I also needed to remove seats, shocks, brake calipers, send my car through a fence, and use measuring and ended up guessing because I didn't remove seats, shocks and brake calipers. It can be hard sometimes Can be a little more complex than 'just measure' if you want to truly measure the entire wheel through all of it's suspension travel. But if you aren't going for every last mm then yeah, you can check the space you currently have and guesstimate.
    • If you own a car, and it has wheels on it, and you know the offset of those wheels, and you have a measuring device, you have everything you need to work out if other wheels will fit.
    • Will this fit? but they are staggered set - RAYS 57DR SEMI GLOSS BLACK 18x8.5 +37 | 18x9.5 +38 5-114.3 STAGGERED SET   or If no go could just get a set 4's wheels of 18x8.5 +37 5-114.3 - would i run 8.5's 235s up front n 245's at the back if I do?   Thanks.        
    • Put a clamp on your return line. I have a feeling it's sucking air, and introducing bubbles to your fuel. With a lot of fuel, less problematic. I'd honestly be redoing all the lines in the tank and clamps on everything.   Also, you've given two different answers to the same question: Asked if being followed by the police you could get down to use the whole tank, you said yes you could, so long as you keep off boost. However, you then followed this up that free revving, it would also cause the issues. I'm doubting free revving is enough to make any noticeable boost on what is likely a decent sized turbo.   So now I have to ask, can you actually drive it lightly and use all the fuel, or does it break up even free revving? Also, have you put a fuel pressure gauge on it? Can you hear the pump change noise at all when you're having this issue?
