Item: 4 x TE37 18x9.5 +12 wheels with Falken FK452 225/40/18 tyres. PCD is 5x114.3.

Condition: Very good, no kerbing/guttering, a few knicks from use and tyre fitting/wheel balancing. Have been powdercoated black over the bronze anodizing by previous owner. Tyres have done 2000km of normal driving. (No skidding and no track time)

Location: Sunshine Coast, QLD.

Price: $2750 pickup or buyer pays transport costs.

Due to countless previous timewasters please read the following before contacting me.

While I would like to free up some extra cash, I've just applied the genuine decals and quite happy with how they look on my car now so if I can't get what I consider to be a fair price for the wheels I'll keep them.

Please don't contact me saying you bought your last set for $2200 so you'll give me that much, it really doesn't interest me.

If you want another colour, buy another colour, there are other sets for sale.

If there's a set that some guy on another forum has for $500 cheaper, buy his then, I don't really need to hear about it.

I'll entertain offers close to asking price for pickup only.

This is what the wheels owe me for those that are interested.

$2500 for bare rims w/o valves/decals or tyres.

$1000 for tyres fitted and balanced. (Review here http://www.1010tires...s/Falken/FK-452)

$100 for Project Kics black valves.

$100 for Genuine Volk decals.

Contact via PM or reply in thread. I'll give phone number to serious buyers as I'm a bit sick of $2000 cash sms's.

Thanks

Jamie

wait it makes no sense, y would you buy wheels just to sell them after spending money on them?

if you dont entertain offers then just keep them, no one cares what you paid for them if you want your wheels sold then your gonna have to drop the attitude and entertain offers

if your sick of 2000 dollar cash sms's stop advertising them, it comes with the territory of selling used items

Hi Jim,

I would like to sell them for the advertised price, as I wrote in the ad I'm not giving them away. A seller has the right to ask whatever price they like. I know what they are worth. I am not desperate to sell.

As clearly explained if they sell then good, if not I'd rather keep them then drop the price to what some people have been offering.

The attitude is there to hopefully separate the serious buyers from the bargain hunting lowballers.

take it from me there is no way to separate them and you just have to put up with them with a fake smile, but from experience if a bad attitude comes into it you will miss out on genuine buyers

the price is just fine for the wheels, but no one buys from a grump :nyaanyaa:

I actually quite enjoyed your ad Jamie and I feel your pain.

my two cents - I dont see the harm in trying to weed out the lowballers before they start throwing offers way under what you are asking. People who appreciate the value in what Jamie is asking I dont think will be put out by his indifference to what someone paid last year, for a totally different set, with half knacker rubber (for example).

I actually bought a set of brakes off this forum from a member that advertised in a similar manner - I was not put out at all by his frankness, paid his fair asking price and now we are both happy.

Good luck with the sale Jamie :) - its a fair price, especially given the rubber.

    • HFM BM57 has a "bad" knee point, IIRC. It's not the same thing as the later R chassis MC.
    • The ATTESSA is functionally identical to R34; there were a bunch of JDM models that continued ATTESSA including Fuga/Q70, Skyline/Q50, Cima etc as an option. All with Auto only and I think mostly for snow regions. AFAIK there were no AWD VR30DDTT sold in Australia - it is on my to do list to check regs for racing a LHD car in Targa/ATR/AASA/CAMS events because if I can get the auto to work it would be interesting to run a 4wd car The Ecuteck TCM tuning is the same model as their ECU tuning, they already have it for R35 and Dose's favourite, BMW. You buy "points" to allow your computer to be tuned, buy either a bluetooth (phone app) or bluetooth+USB+Key (phone and PC) dongle, and pay for a tune that will be locked to your tuner ( ). You can also access the tuning software yourself but 1. it is mega expensive and 2. these computers have a billion parameters that intersect, so how could you ever spend enough time on it to get a decent result.
    • Or, is it a case of what it is like owning an R series Skyline? NFI what the previous owner has done or fiddled with... Ha ha ha After reading through this thread, I went on a bit of a research about the Q50/Q60. Now I'm quite intrigued by them! Is the AWD in them more like a WRX where it's always AWD, or is it more like the ATTESSA in the GTRs? By the sound of this TCU tuning, this sounds like a case of someone has made some real software for it, and you just need the right piece of hardware, and then you license that specific vehicle/TCU. Or is this a case of the software will be really expensive so only a few tuners have it, and you still have to pay a license per vehicle?
    • By popular demand.. it was a coil. Got my hands on 1 new OEM coil, replaced with the one that made the less noise difference when I unplugged it while the car was running and started the car up. No stutter and the engine light was gone. I guess I’ll buy the other 5 they have lol
    • No, code 21 is very straightforward. It can only be the things described in that diagnostic flow. In fact it has no way of knowing that the spark plug resistance is out of spec.
