You're looking for a polished lip? Some wheels are made up of three different pieces. It would be easier if yours was 2 or 3 piece.

You could take it to a sprayer but I guess it depends on the wheel. I would imagine if you had a lot of spokes it may be difficult. They may want to remove all the paint and start from scratch

Don't live in Brisbane so can't help you there.

Good luck.

What sort of money do they charge for a set?

I had the original rims, bronze I think but had the car-yard put some black Lenso's on, after a while I wish I had kept them.

Looked around and bought the Advan rims, I think all black needed a lift and got the machined look and love it on a black car :wub:

But buying rims is a personal thing.So I have a set of Black Lenso 18x10 +22 Project D in very good condition (3000Klms) for sale.

Love your car and the rims looked pretty good to me, I wonder how they would have looked if you had the spokes sprayed the same colour as your car ?

Black on black seems too heavy, still looked good, but?

What brand were they and what did you end up selling them for??

Diamond Black Volk GTC's 18 x 9.5 +12. $1500 or just under

Bought for $3000ish, No rash when sold

I think same colour would have made it look like a Hairdressers car

:wacko:

    • There's restrictor pills in the stock boost control hoses. That's how they set the amount that was bled off and hence the "high" boost setting. The usual mod in the day was to remove it and send the "high" boost setting up to about 14 psi.
    • Thanks Duncan, that's the best info I've read. Furthermore after learning about the PCM programming side controlling the factory boost solenoid, the purpose of the solenoid is to "bleed" boost when pin 25 is earthed, thus allowing spring pressure in the wastegate actuator to overcome diaphragm boost pressure, thus closing or reducing the position of the wastegate flap creating more boost as the turbo is able to spin faster. It's pretty cool to see a designated Pill to do exactly this, would have liked to have seen it with a tiny filter over the end for those moments in vacuum.  The constant bleed pill has now been removed completely from the system and solenoid boost control has been restored once again.   Case closed 😂
    • The wideband reading is meaningless if it's not running. Why are you using shitty old sidefeeds on any engine, let alone a Neo? What manifold and fuel rail are you using to achieve that? Beyond that, can't help you with AEM stuff as I've never been their ECU/CAS combo.
    • Manual boost controllers (where a little of the boost was bled off) were quite common back in the day, because they were cheap and easy. Generally they had a manual adjustment screw rather than being fixed like yours. Down side is they always bleed boost, not just when you want them to so an electronic boost controller that uses a solenoid will have less lag.
    • Hello , im new here and i have A31 home build  RB25det neo stock eng / turbo  aem ems 2 blue connector  aem 3.5 map aem cas disk aem wideband connected to ecu  355 lph pump 550 nismo yellow injectors side feed aftermarket regulator  and won’t start with base aem tuner basic tune eventually flipped cas 180 degree so it triggers on correct stroke not in exhaust cycle  Now it won’t start Wideband reads 10 and 11 at lowest fuel setting  and will share calibrations soon for aem tuner i think something is wrong in aem tuner    please if you have any information, am very grateful
