Trying to find some rims for my car. Specifically a 17x9 +15 (or 22) in a BBS or Rays. There isn't much showing up on Yahoo in Japan and the local importer style sites all are months/years old with apparently no turnover in anything good.

Can anyone suggest somewhere who may have something?

How much are you wanting to spend?

What about a brand new set of ENEKI RPF1s in what ever desired size/offset you like? Would probably come in cheaper then used jap rims too.

Also not sure if there still available but import monster has on their site refurbished 17x9 + 22 gold BBS rims for $2600 they look great.

There were some new Enkei's RPF1? for $1300 ish plus shipping which I would be ok with. First preference is to match what I have 17" titanium CE28's but they dont come up that often. Last time out I bought a pair with tyres in good nick for $750 which in retrospect may have been a bargain.

Problem is because of the fitment thing everyone has 18's and hella flush offsets. 9.5" is the default width now it appears.

If your prepared to go the new Enkei option I'd suggest suggest go to Tire Rack in the USA www.tirerack.com Their the cheapest I've found and they provide good service, either by chat or phone.

For a set of 4 Enkei RPF1, you are looking at about $1,300-$1,400 AUD, including delivery to Australia. Or if you choose a different Enkei wheel you may even get them for a couple of hundred dollars less.

      @Haggerty this is your red flag. In MAP based ECU's the Manifold pressure X RPM calculation is how the engine knows it is actually...running/going through ANY load. You are confusing the term 'base map' with your base VE/Fuel table. When most people say 'base map' they mean the stock entire tune shipped with the ECU, hopefully aimed at a specific car/setup to use as a base for beginning to tune your specific car. Haltech has a lot of documentation (or at least they used to, I expect it to be better now). Read it voraciously.

      I saw you mention this earlier and it raised a red flag, but I couldn't believe it was real. Yes, the vacuum signal should vary. It is the one and only load signal from the engine to the ECU, and it MUST vary. It is either not connected or is badly f**ked up in some way.

      @Haggerty you still haven't answered my question.  Many things you are saying do not make sense for someone who can tune, yet I would not expect someone who cannot tune to be playing with the things in the ECU that you are.  This process would be a lot quicker to figure out if we can remove user error from the equation.

      If as it's stalling, the fuel pressure rises, it's saying there's less vacuum in the intake manifold. This is pretty typical of an engine that is slowing down.   While typically is agree it sounds fuel related, it really sounds fuel/air mixture related. Since the whole system has been refurbished, including injectors, pump, etc, it's likely we've altered how well the system is delivering fuel. If someone before you has messed with the IACV because it needed fiddling with as the fuel system was dieing out, we need to readjust it back. Getting things back to factory spec everywhere, is what's going to help the entire system. So if it idles at 400rpm with no IACV, that needs raising. Getting factory air flow back to normal will help us get everything back in spec, and likely help chase down any other issues. Back on IACV, if the base idle (no IACV plugged in) is too far out, it's a lot harder for the ECU to control idle. The IACV duty cycle causes non linear variations in reality. When I've tuned the idle valves in the past, you need to keep it in a relatively narrow window on aftermarket ecus to stop them doing wild dances. It also means if your base idle is too low, the valve needs to open too much, and then the smallest % change ends up being a huge variation.

      I guess one thing that might be wrong is the manifold pressure.  It is a constant -5.9 and never moves even under 100% throttle and load.  I would expect it to atleast go to 0 correct?  It's doing this with the OEM MAP as well as the ECU vacuum sensor. When trying to tune the base map under load the crosshairs only climb vertically with RPM, but always in the -5.9 column.
