Sorry if this drags on!!

Up for sale today was my key to the very unique look i was aiming for with my beloved Matte White Supra

A set of custom Chartreuse Yellow Work Meisters S1, all wrapped up in Kuhmo KU36 semi slicks

They were originally bought in average condition, but once i decided on the look i was after, they were sent off to Import Monster to get the royal treatment done.

It took about 5 months total to get the finished product, as new outers (painted dish) were sourced and machined to bold up to the centers and the inner section of the wheels

Dimensions of the rims are as follows:

Fronts

18"x10.5", offset is unknown

KU36's have roughly 70% tread left

Rears

18"x12", offset is also unknown

KU36's have roughly 10% left (only put these on to get from a to b, but the wheels did not fit)

One of the front wheels has a small section of paint chipped off due to my careless brother shifting them about :@

Ill stress it now, if you plan on fitting these to a stock bodied supra, i highly suggest you get yourself either a slight wide body or over fenders of some sort for the rear

When i test fitted them to my supra (stock guards) the fronts seemed fine, but the rears were my problem

In my opinion these are as awesome as f**k. (pardon the french)

I also highly advise test fitting before purchase, which can be arranged with me :)

Any interstate buyers, unless you are prepared to make your car fit the wheels, there is not much i can do in terms of test fitments :P

These wheels cost me a total of 5.7k in the end (purchasing, refurbishment, paint, assembly and tyres)

They have not been used since being assembled apart from two wheels being test fitted to my supra

I am looking for $5,000 as they are

It may seem like a lot to most people, but consider this

as far as i know, you can only purchase new Meisters with a maximum of around 10.5-11"? (correct me if i am wrong! :P)

and again as far as i know, they will cost a fraction over $4,000 for a set without tyres

These are very different and again have freshly been refurbished and never used

Words nor pictures cannot even begin to explain how damn sweet they look in the sun light.. you really have to see them in the flesh!

ill let the pictures do the talking

Reason for sale, my Supra will be sold soon to make room for a Stagea, and these are way too clean to use on my z20 drifter, so they must go!

I can be contacted on 0423 985 five seven one, and am located in VIC (Caroline Springs)

any questions, ill so my best to answer! these will be advertised on few forums so it will be first in, best dressed!

Cheers

Ken

cheers chris :)

ill find out both tyre sizes when i get back home later this arvo relyt

I think you will have better luck selling the wheels if you measure the offset with a ruler even if it is approximate it will only be like 1-2mm error

there are guides on how to do it all over the internet

also what are the disk spec on the faces, big brake clearance or pretty low disk?

iirc Meisters are available up to 18"x15" size from the Work site

just did a quick google search about diy offset measurement, ill have a crack at it tonight

What would you be referring to when you say 'disc spec on the faces'? i wouldn't have a clue :P

In regards to BBC, i am not entirely sure,

when i originally purchased the Meisters in their original form, they came off an RZ supra with big brakes, considering the facing is still the same id say it should still clear supra big brakes,

But this of course is SAU, so that's pretty much useless :P

Id be more than happy to test fit to any skylines, s15's and etc with big brakes! It would be helpful to know if they would clear for you guys or not :)

Cheers

Ken

also ill remove the section about the new work wheels, as i have been mistake :P

Cheers Roman!

these are mental! make ur car fit them, they will look awsome! tried getting my wheels painted in same vibrance but orange and the shop couldnt do it :/

that was the plan! but a m35 stagea is such a better option for me :P so the supras going!

Its very very tricky with colours as vibrant as these to do it, ill be doing the same theme hopefully to my z20 and my stagea when it eventually arrives!! :P

For some reason, i am un able to edit the first post, so ill put the offsets and tyre sizes here

If a mod is reading this, could you please edit the topic for me?

anyway they are as follows

FRONTS, -27 offset

TYRES, 235/40ZR18 95W

REARS, 0 offset

TYRES, 265/35ZR18 97W

Thanks guys!

Cheers

Ken

ah whoops! yes +27, pressed the wrong button

Callan, the wheels have been re-furbished and widened, so offsets have changed

Price Drop

4,800

If they have been widened and all that jazz, whoevers done the work should know what the offsets are. It would help with your sale.

Just offering my Personal experience here. Those fronts look to be something like 9.5 +24, and if it clear Supra big brakes, it will clear GTR/S15/[insert datsun] big brakes, and 6 Piston Alcon/Grex calipers, as Supra brakes are actually wider than them.

This is with 19 x 9.5 +20

The rears, these were my 19 x 11 +18 SSR on my Supra...which look ssimilar to the fitment on your Meisters. Hope that helps man.

damn ive always been jealous of your gorilla :P

thank you though!

anyway, yeah it is a bit of a pain not having specific offsets, but i am doing what i can, the offsets i measured are a few posts up anyway.. shame i cant modify the first post

but anyway test fitment is something i definitely suggest to any potential buyers as previously mentioned

Cheers

Ken

    • Hi,  Just joined the forum so I could share my "fix" of this problem. Might be of use to someone. Had the same hunting at idle issue on my V36 with VQ35HR engine after swapping the engine because the original one got overheated.  While changing the engine I made the mistake of cleaning the throttle bodies and tried all the tricks i could find to do a throttle relearn with no luck. Gave in and took it to a shop and they couldn't sort it. Then took it to my local Nissan dealership and they couldn't get it to idle properly. They said I'd need to replace the throttle bodies and the ecu probably costing more than the car is worth. So I had the idea of replacing the carbon I cleaned out with a thin layer of super glue and it's back to normal idle now. Bit rough but saved the car from the wreckers 🤣
    • After my last update, I went ahead with cleaning and restoring the entire fuel system. This included removing the tank and cleaning it with the Beyond Balistics solution, power washing it multiple times, drying it thoroughly, rinsing with IPA, drying again with heat gun and compressed air. Also, cleaning out the lines, fuel rail, and replacing the fuel pump with an OEM-style one. During the cleaning process, I replaced several hoses - including the breather hose on the fuel tank, which turned out to be the cause of the earlier fuel leak. This is what the old fuel filter looked like: Fuel tank before cleaning: Dirty Fuel Tank.mp4   Fuel tank after cleaning (some staining remains): Clean Fuel Tank.mp4 Both the OEM 270cc and new DeatschWerks 550cc injectors were cleaned professionally by a shop. Before reassembling everything, I tested the fuel flow by running the pump output into a container at the fuel filter location - flow looked good. I then fitted the new fuel filter and reassembled the rest of the system. Fuel Flow Test.mp4 Test 1 - 550cc injectors Ran the new fuel pump with its supplied diagonal strainer (different from OEM’s flat strainer) and my 550cc injectors using the same resized-injector map I had successfully used before. At first, it idled roughly and stalled when I applied throttle. Checked the spark plugs and found that they were fouled with carbon (likely from the earlier overly rich running when the injectors were clogged). After cleaning the plugs, the car started fine. However, it would only idle for 30–60 seconds before stalling, and while driving it would feel like a “fuel cut” after a few seconds - though it wouldn’t fully stall. Test 2 – Strainer swap Suspecting the diagonal strainer might not be reaching the tank bottom, I swapped it for the original flat strainer and filled the tank with ~45L of fuel. The issue persisted exactly the same. Test 3 – OEM injectors To eliminate tuning variables, I reinstalled the OEM 270cc injectors and reverted to the original map. Cleaned the spark plugs again just in-case. The stalling and “fuel cut” still remained.   At this stage, I suspect an intermittent power or connection fault at the fuel pump hanger, caused during the cleaning process. This has led me to look into getting Frenchy’s fuel hanger and replacing the unit entirely. TL;DR: Cleaned and restored the fuel system (tank, lines, rail, pump). Tested 550cc injectors with the same resized-injector map as before, but the car stalls at idle and experiences what feels like “fuel cut” after a few seconds of driving. Swapped back to OEM injectors with original map to rule out tuning, but the issue persists. Now suspecting an intermittent power or connection fault at the fuel pump hanger, possibly cause by the cleaning process.  
    • For race cars, this is one part where I find having the roll cage bar having gone through a hole in the floor better than the build it up on a ledge inside... The Merc I help on, the main hoop ends are marked on the car, and the jack is marked... Jack goes under a few inches and lifts one whole side of the car up... Removes that fight for long slim jacks for race car duties!   My biggest issue for the daily drivers I work on, is my jacks don't go high enough. The jacks start out on a few blocks, jack it up, then start a second jack under it on more blocks, and then I can get an axle stand under it. My axle stands are presently in use, and are nearly fully extended. The car is sitting with barely more than a cm of clearance to get the wheel off the studs! Sarah's Kluger is the same, as it has an ungodly amount of droop available in the suspension and a distinct lack of good jacking points!
    • Happy? Yep, my to do list is getting shorter and shorter. Either this light approaching is the end of the tunnel, or I'm about to be hit by a train... Ha ha ha   Also, Duncan isn't that far out of town that you need to make a multi day drive out of it. 😛
