Beautiful wheels. Are they forged and what country makes them as the name sounds german?

They're cast te37 knock offs so I'm going to say china? Bit of a downgrade from the lmgt3's imo.

Their entire range is knock offs, they're available in the trader section.

Rest of the build looks great though, love the updates.

Fairly sure they are American, but yes the whole company is just about knock offs. I mean they can't even come up with their own description:

Not sure why Enkei haven't sued them for that.

Anyway, don't want to clutter up this thread with that, it's an excellent build thread and at least they are nice looking wheels! thumbsup.gif

All informations about the wheels you can find here:

Yes, they are Te37 knock offs. But I have no problems with this fact. Also other firms have Te37 replicas like Rota or ASA wheels.

The Varrstoen have been used from Ken Block for example. I know other high performance Skylines (round about 600~800hp) which also use this Varrstoen wheels on the racetrack and they had no problems with them.

So, I`m sure, this wheels are good enaugh for me, and they cost a fraction of the the Rays =)

Yesterday I was at High Import Performance to look after my car =) To get the sky on an other position in the garage we we fitted wheels and tires from a friend.

After that I feld that the Tein Typ RA suspension is really hard^^ Too hard? We will see =)

And I tried to fit the new Mocal oil cooler =) Really big but it looks like that it fitts on the same position like before. Now I have to fix the cooling panels for the cooler.

    • 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?
