There are only 2 sets of those rims in the country.

a white R33 GTR has the other set - apparently worth 8k.

Where did you hear that?

They're Dronell rims, and aren't that expensive. Tempe Tyres, Ozzy Tyres, etc, can all get them, and the rims on the white R33 GTR (GTR51K) aren't the same. Very similar, but not the same.

I have seen these Dronell rims on many European cars (BMWs mainly), and they certainly aren't the only set in Australia.

from the owner himself - i cruise with him and the other skyline i mentioned quite a bit.

that 32 should see 600hp when they finally finish tuning it too.

apologies if it's not the only 2 sets - i'm not into wheels so i take their word for it.

Those rims are bloody horny, but they certainly aren't that exclusive. :)

Have a close look at Angelo's car the next time you go for a cruise... If I remember correctly, the spokes flare out slightly at the edge of the rim, and aren't parallel like the Dronells on that beautiful R32 GTR in question.

600hp eh? Should be good for high 10s-low 11s? Awesome :P

if it's the r32 you are talking about on page 1,

i think it's actually purple - if you see the top corner (drivers side) of the front bar you can see it.

i've only ever seen the car at night - has been off the road for around 2 years after an accident.

don't worry, allens a fcukwit anyway and talks outa his arse!

I'm afraid I have to second that. A long time ago I was trying to post on the fast fours forums and he acted nice via pm, then when I posted he slammed me in front of everyone.

Then a whole thread was created to slam Loz recently. As well as countless others I have seen heavilly flamed by Allan GTI-R for no reason on those forums.

Oh and by the way Allan GTI-R ..... welcome to the Forums.

      What brakes on R34 GTT(Europe)

      By Kinkstaah · Posted

      Welcome to Skyline ownership. Yes, it is entirely possible parts websites get things wrong. There's a whole world of inaccuracies out there when it comes to R34 stuff (and probably 33 and 32). Lots of things that are 'just bolt on, entirely interchangable' aren't. Even between S1 and S2 R34's. Yes they have a GTT item supposedly being 296mm. This is incorrect. I would call whoever you got them from and return them and let them know the GTT actually uses 310mm rotors. Depending on where you got them from your experience and success will obviously vary.

      What brakes on R34 GTT(Europe)

      By Kapr · Posted

      Hi...a bit a "development" on the brakes. I spoke to the guys where i get brakes from...and they are saying that 296mm EBC are for R34 GT-T. I then went to their site: https://www.ebcbrakes.com/vehicle/uk-row/NISSAN/Skyline (R34)/ and search for my car(R34 GT 1998 - it has GTT brakes) and it show me this USR1229 number and they are rly 296mm rotors... So now iam rly confused... The rotors i have now on the car are 310mm asi shown... So where is the problem? Does the whole EBC got it wrong or my calipers are just...idk know what?

      Oh What the hell, I used to get a "are you sure you want to reply, this thread is XX months old" message. Maybe a software update remove that. My bad.

      R34 Gtt Wheel Offset Advice

      By Kinkstaah · Posted

      This is a recipe for disaster* Note: Disaster is relative. The thing that often gets lost in threads like this is what is considered acceptable poke and compromise between what one person considers 'good' looks and what someone else does. The quoted specs would sit absurdly outside the guards with the spacers mentioned and need  REALLY thin tyres and a LOT of camber AND rolling the guards to fit. Some people love this. Some people consider this a ruined car. One thing is for certain though, rolling the guards is pretty much mandatory for any 'good' fitment (of either variety). It is often the difference between any fitment remotely close to the guards. "Not to mention the rears were like a mm from hitting the coilovers." I have a question though - This spec is VERY close to what I was planning to buy relative to the inboard suspension - I have an offset measuring tool on the way to confirm it. When you say "like a mm" do you mean literally 1mm? Or 2mm? Cause that's enough clearance for me in the rear :p I actually found the more limiting factor ISNT the coilover but the actual suspension arms. Did you take a look at how close those were?
