FOR SALE

Bronze Rays TE37's with MIchelin Pilot Sport Cups - great track wheel/tyre setup

Wheels

Size: 18x10 +18

Colour: Bronze

Condition: reasonable, a couple of the rims have slight rashing

Original: Yes

Year of manufacture: 2005

Tyres

Size: 265/35 R18

Condition: One Marulan track day (maybe about 4-5 sessions), including return trip there

Photos attached showing wheels, Rays sticker, tread depth and all that stuff....also pics of same size wheels fitted to an R34 GTR.

Wheels are located in the inner west of Sydney, and would prefer a local pick-up.

Looking for $3,800, which I think is fair given the cost of the tyres and the limited track time they've seen.

PM or SMS me on 0407778421

Cheers.

I believe Rays has increased their rims price by over 50%. Not sure if the price escalation has been passed through to suppliers but the same set of rims now would have cost more than 3.5k imported. I remembered paying around 51k Yen each for the rim in 2011 and they're now 82k Yen each on Ray's website. The dollar has gone up significantly by 20-25% which is good for offseting the price escalation, but still be not enough to cover 50%!

18x9.5 +22's are $3.3k delivered. Michelin pilot sport cups are about $2.5-3.0k. Combined is $5.8-6.3k.

So it's about 40% off at $3.5k. Plus the MyChron timer. Value!

Interesting!

I noticed yesterday Nick that there's a very nice Pearl Black R34 GTR being complied at JLM (JapLink Motors).

If you asked Todd to leave a Memo for the owner that your wheel/tyre combo is on offer, I think this deal would be tempting when you consider Bronze TE37s on a Pearl Black body!!!

Hi Terry

That lucky owner of the black R34 happens to be me! :rolleyes::yes::no: I'm crossing my fingers that compliance is all sorted before the June long weekend so i can take her on a nice romatic journey.

Nick, I got your message from JLM, unfortunately I can't commit to the wheels right at this moment as my first priority is a proper alarm system. If the wheels are still here in a month or two then I'll be all over it!

Cheers

Dave

No worries Dave. Let me know when you're in a position to think about it.

I got an autowatch alarm from Security in Motion. Leon was great and the system works well. Built in turbo timer too.

Ok Dave & Nick: I remember when I was on really tight budgets.

Congratulations Dave on a very lovely GTR!

I'm happy too that at least there's friendly dialogue :)

Thanks Terry, I have Iron Chef to thank for finding me a fantastic example :-)

Great info Nick, I've heard some great things about Sec In Motion, so will be calling Leon asap!

This is what SAU should be about, great dialogue, networking and community :no:

Just a reminder, these are original TE's and the tyres are Michelin Pilot Sport Cups!

Will swap for R34 GTR Haltech Platinum Pro, Flex Fuel Sensor and Injectors., or $3,300

      The final part arrived today to un-clampify and simplify the intake Who would have though a 1/2" hose stainless bulkhead fitting designed for below waterline bilge pumps would be what I needed Test fit on a 3" offcut I had laying around to see if it would work, and it worked a treat All going well the intake will be on its "final version" tomorrow

      R32 GTS (RB20DE) Injectors Replacement

      By GabsReDeal · Posted

      I checked the injectors again (1 and 2, since they’re easiest to access) to make sure they weren’t clogged. Even though the entire fuel system had been cleaned, I wanted to be certain. Everything looked clean, so I reinstalled and connected everything. When I started the car to confirm everything was okay, it immediately revved up high, so I shut it off straight away. I checked to see if I’d missed a vacuum hose or something, but everything was connected. On the second attempt, the car ran without the high idle, but I noticed a distinct “compressed air” sound coming from the engine bay. Tracing the sound, I pushed injector #6 forward slightly and the noise stopped — it turned out it wasn’t seated properly, despite the fuel rail being bolted down. While holding it in place, the car idled steadily without stalling and ran for over 5 minutes. At this point, I pulled all six injectors out just in case I hadn’t seated them correctly or dirt had gotten onto the O-rings. Unfortunately, I discovered that I had damaged 3 out of 6 injectors (the OEM 270cc ones) during installation. So yes, this was my fault. Since only the pintle caps were damaged, I’ve ordered a Fuel Injector Service Kit from NZEFI to refurbish them. In the meantime, I reinstalled my new injectors – the car now idles fine for over 15 minutes without stalling. I have not attempted to drive it so far. It’s not perfect yet, as it hesitates when the throttle is pressed, but it’s a big improvement. Unplugging the IACV with the new injectors idles at around 800rpm, even with the IACV screw tightened fully. But this is probably due to tune.
