I was wondering if anyone here knows of any Australian suppliers of these wheels?? I need to buy a set but if I cant get them in australia I need someone to decipher the differences between all the models and their offset system. I want a set of 15 or 16 inch tall rims with 8.5 fronts and the biggest they make for the back whick I think is 9 or 9,5. I need to make sure both front and rear have maximum dish.

Can anybody help or point me in the direction of help.

Thanks it is much appreciated.

Daniel

after heaps of searching I have not found any australian supplier of these wheels. Looks like I will be doing my old trick of hiring a interpreture and hopefully buying direct from the company, this has worked in the past but it has also backfired with one company rejecting selling to a private person not a supplier!!!

      RH9 R32 GTR Build Thread

      Out of curiosity, how do you cover up the inspection hole? Surely it doesn't sit open like that, right? With grime and dirt coming in and oil going out?

      M35 Brake caliper replacement

      By Waders360 · Posted

      Hi from Canada, Both of my calipers are starting to fail. My car is a 2005 M35 Stagea ARX and I can't seem to find any parts or any cross reference caliper that would fit my car. Is there a company or a similar caliper that would fit and I could replace the OEM one. Or if anyone knows where I can find a new OEM. Any help is very appreciated. Let me know!

      S1 rb25/s14 starting problem

      By 25zenki · Posted

      Maf is a question mark but TPS  I have set at 0.47, the fact that I’m getting proper voltage range out of it with the key on leads me to believe it’s functioning properly. I’m getting proper voltages on basically everything. I still need to look up voltage ranges for z32 maf and test that

      S1 rb25/s14 starting problem

      By 25zenki · Posted

      Honestly no not at all, but it’s a very basic tune, it’s stock injectors q45 tps and z32 maf. Other than that it’s a completely stock base map. The file is from nistune and from my understanding if it was tune related I would be able to unplug maf and tps and it would still start even if it was a really shitty start. I have tried starting it with coolant temp, maf, and tps unplugged none of those 3 togethor or individually changes anything
