Hey fellas,

I bought a R32 GTR about a year ago and the wheels that were on the vehicle had no indication to me what offset they were , or brand.. They look similar to a starcorp but have a curvy arch instead.

they are running 245/45/17 Rubber - 5 x 114.3.

The Rubber itself is completely illegal they are bald as ever, 2 of the rims have pretty bad gutter bash and 2 of them only show minor gutter bash. I drove around this car for abit and all 4 wheels and NONE of the wheels are buckled !

Please take a look at these photos and maybe you can make out what rims these are and how much id be able to get for them because i want them gone . I'm aware id sell them cheap due to the condition i dont expect to much, On the other hand though i did take 30 mins and gave a hit to one of the wheels and it come up well , all the marks on the dish come off very easily with a light scrub of wet and dry and if you had to refurbish these wheels i reckon they would look pretty good!.

They are Stern's.

Don't know what model, either they don't put stickers on them or they fall off easily.

I have a set on my silvia in 17x9 +25ish (based on tape measure as no stickers)

Yours look to have been painted recently, they are generally silver painted centres.

      This is how I last did this when I had a master cylinder fail and introduce air. Bleed before first stage, go oh shit through first stage, bleed at end of first stage, go oh shit through second stage, bleed at end of second stage, go oh shit through third stage, bleed at end of third stage, go oh shit through fourth stage, bleed at lunch, go oh shit through fifth stage, bleed at end of fifth stage, go oh shit through sixth stage....you get the idea. It did come good in the end. My Topdon scan tool can bleed the HY51 and V37, but it doesn't have a consult connector and I don't have an R34 to check that on. I think finding a tool in an Australian workshop other than Nissan that can bleed an R34 will be like rocking horse poo. No way will a generic ODB tool do it.

      Hmm. Perhaps not the same engineers. The OE Nissan engineers did not forsee a future with spacers pushing the tie rod force application further away from the steering arm and creating that torque. The failures are happening since the advent of those things, and some 30 years after they designed the uprights. So latent casting deficiencies, 30+ yrs of wear and tear, + unexpected usage could quite easily = unforeseen failure. Meanwhile, the engineers who are designing the billet CNC or fabricated uprights are also designing, for the same parts makers, the correction tie rod ends. And they are designing and building these with motorsport (or, at the very least, the meth addled antics of drifters) in mind. So I would hope (in fact, I would expect) that their design work included the offset of that steering force. Doesn't mean that it is not totally valid to ask the question of them, before committing $$.

      The downside of this is when you try to track the car, as soon as you hit ABS you get introduced to a unbled system. I want to avoid this. I do not want to bleed/flush/jack up the car twice just to bleed the f**kin car.

      But again, the engineers said your cast aluminium would be fine based on the load that would be stretching that section. Same load stretching the bolts in a flex (not the twist), with a much smaller cross sectional area than the original part you've broken. It's why you'd need to be using higher strength bolts, but that's just making up for the strength you lose with less area...
