Hello all Ive looked and searched through the forums for some good advice for the following but havent found much at all, Im getting a White GTST R33 later this week and Im working out my budget so any help would be great!!

Im looking for some advice on where to get RIMS at a good price in Perth and also a nice body kit... more on the body kit later.

Im after 18" Rims and at the moment Im leaning towards Gold ones.

These arnt bad but are $1600 for the package " Inc tyres" + $85 to get them sent to perth.

But I have seen some packages for as low as $1400

Any ideas? Cheers!! :P

It doesn't pay to cheap out on tyres; which is often why some of the cheaper packages are cheaper. Hold out until you get a bit more cash and get some decent rubber on them. Otherwise, places like C-Red usually have a large selection of rims; Buddy Club's are all the rage nowadays, and for good reason.

No offence taken at all teejay, I posted the picture to get feedback on them anyway...

Man its hard to find a nice set of RIMS if anyones done some searching in the past and knows of some good places around Perth please Post the web addys as Im a looking!

:P

Hit up wheels world in ossie park, john fowler has a decent selection of stuff on display he can show you against the car so you get an idea what it looks like, hes also not in for selling crap tyres, his cheaper tyres are still ten times better than what you'll buy at bob jane etc..

    • Thank you, 100% the intent. New coils were due and the 17" sixers look/feel loads better than the stock wheels. The aero options are so spot on.   Thanks for the warm welcome, all!
    • 98 r34 gtt Been rocking my latest setup and car running like never before. Have put a good 200 miles on it since all the latest changes and additions. everything is dialed in and have been driving it a bunch.   However, all a sudden last weekend as soon as I pushed throttle passed 4k and the engine stumbles, (slow or fast acceleration) hesitates and doesn’t go above 4100 or so, like a misfire. Everything else seems fine. I had a “good” set of coil packs that I removed from car when I first got it when I changed them over to new coils. I swapped out current ones for those, but no change. I also changed the plugs, no change. Seems to rev over 4 when out of gear with no load just fine no “misfire”, but as soon as its in gear with a load of any kind, it “misfires” as soon as rpm drop back below 4 k it runs perfectly, smooth, starts, restarts and drives fine as long as I keep it below 4 k while in gear. All readings look fine, no CEL   Any idea as to what could all a sudden cause an issue when pushing rpms passed 4 k?
    • When you say your cams are 272/262 is that 272in and 262ex?
    • We're arguing semantics. I am saying 45 accel and a 55 deccel ramp are "2 ways". Even a 45 degree ramp and an 89 degree ramp is "2 ways", because it is literally... two ways. The cusco 55/30 ramp is a 2 way. It's two ways. I get it though - in normal nomenclature a "2 way" would be 45/45 or 55/55 or 60/60 i.e the same locking in both directions. And something like 45/65 would be considered "1.5 way". I would then say if we're getting into the nitty gritty then every locking diff is a "2 way" diff and we should not speak in 1.5, or 2 ways but ramp angles instead. Which ofc if one of those ramp angles is 90deg, that side is not doing any locking. :p So Nismo don't obviously sell 3 things. The fact of the matter that they only sell two items really goes to show that there's a 2 way and a "1,5 way" which is really a 1 way. I believe the actual lockup for the 'adjustability' of the GT pro is really just setting preload for when the ramps actually start locking up. It's not changing how much 'wayness' there is. It is (somehow) horribly explained. People just buy whatever diff and go "locks up good bruh" and that's what ends up on socials forever.
