I have for sale a "set" of work meisters s1 1 piece.

the good

they are very recently refurbished with a new lick of paint (gunmetal metallic) and new stickers. They are 17x8 +35 offset all round 5x114.3 exceptional condition with not a single scratch on them come with kumho tyres which are close to brand new.

the bad

one wheel has a hairline crack on them. I tried but cannot take a photo of it as its that small. doesnt hold air, well it does for a couple of days. fixable definitely and i would but I own a datsun 260z and thats the car i bought the wheels for. fitted them last night to the rolling shell and even with 25mm spacers, they are utterly weak. these are a car that came with 0+ offset wheels from factory.

The solution

I have also a 17x8 +35 wheel but the catch is that its a 2piece item and is gold with a polished dish. the fourth wheel can also be repaired

the maths

the tyres cost close to 600 bucks, the wheels themselves plus 6-700 for the new paint

close to 2400 has been spent on these wheels minus the spare meister.

I am willing to meet you guys halfway on what was spent at 1200

* photos show the wheels in a bad light. they are incledible in real. also fitted to datsun rear. you know what i mean by weak??

---------------------------------------------------

Also for all you 4 stud warriors who want these, i have a set of 4-5 stud conversion spacers i also bought at great expense to fit these onto my 4 stud datsun. They are 25 mm wide. These are youre for $150 on top of wheel price.

so yeh call me and negotiate as im on the lookout for new wheels for the datto. alternatively, if you have some stronger offset wheels, please dont hesitate to offer swaps.

---------------------------------------------------

couple of other random things for sale

s15 complete doors 2xpairs one grey and one blue. come with everything including mirrors windows interior trim etc. s15 bootlid with the standard spoiler in grey

Kind regards,

Bardan

    • Hi, SteveL Thank you very much for your reply, you seem to be the only person on the net who has come up with a definitive answer for which I am grateful. The "Leak" was more by way of wet bubbles when the pedal was depressed hard by a buddy while trying to gey a decent pedal when bleeding the system having fitted the rebuilt BM50 back in the car, which now makes perfect sense. A bit of a shame having just rebuilt my BM50, I did not touch the proportioning valve side of things, the BM50 was leaking from the primary piston seal and fluid was running down the the Brake booster hence the need to rebuild, I had never noticed any fluid leaking from that hole previously it only started when I refitted it to the car. The brake lines in the photo are "Kunifer" which is a Copper/Nickel alloy brake pipe, but are only the ones I use to bench bleed Master cylinders, they are perfectly legal to use on vehicles here in the UK, however the lines on the car are PVF coated steel. Thanks again for clearing this up for me, a purchase of a new BMC appears to be on the cards, I have been looking at various options in case my BM50 was not repairable and have looked at the HFM BM57 which I understand is manufactured in Australia.  
    • Well the install is officially done. Filled with fluid and bled it today, but didn't get a chance to take it on a test drive. I'll throw some final pics of the lines and whatnot but you can definitely install a DMAX rack in an R33 with pretty minor mods. I think the only other thing I had to do that isn't documented here is grind a bit of the larger banjo fitting to get it to clear since the banjos are grouped much tighter on the DMAX rack. Also the dust boots from a R33 do not fit either fyi, so if you end up doing this install for whatever reason you'll need to grab those too. One caveat with buying the S15 dust boots however is that the clamps are too small to fit on the R33 inner tie rod since they're much thicker so keep the old clamps around. The boots also twist a bit when adjusting toe but it's not a big deal. No issues or leaks so far, steering feels good and it looks like there's a bit more lock now than I had before. Getting an alignment on Saturday so I'll see how it feels then but seems like it'll be good to go       
    • I don't get in here much anymore but I can help you with this.   The hole is a vent (air relief) for the brake proportioning valve, which is built into the master cylinder.    The bad news is that if brake fluid is leaking from that hole then it's getting past the proportioning valve seals.   The really bad news is that no spare parts are available for the proportioning valve either from Nissan or after market.     It's a bit of a PITA getting the proportioning valve out of the master cylinder body anyway but, fortunately, leaks from that area are rare in my experience. BTW, if those are copper (as such) brake lines you should get rid of them.    Bundy (steel) tube is a far better choice (and legal  in Australia - if that's where you are).
