Looking for 4, 15" Factory R31 aussie steel wheels. These came as spares on the Ti's and silhouettes, as well as the GTS's. They are often referred to as "Interceptors" I don't care what colour they are, but they have to be in good condition and straight. Can anyone help me out?

what exactly do you mean the original steel wheels - the rims??

or are you talking about the alloy mag rims that came with the Ti

If I wanted alloy, I would have said alloy. I am after 15" STEEL rims. the same as the spares on Ti's and Silhouettes and GTS's. They also were available on the police and fire brigade R31's, which is what I have just bought, but it doesn't have the steel wheels anymore. To get it back to stock, I require 4 of these wheels.

Angry, thanks mate, I would really appreciate it if you could find out for me. Your a good lad.

hmm.. so these arent the normal stock steelies on GXs ect?  I dont think ive ever seen them.. got a pic of them?

They are the same as the normal steel wheels on a GX and GXE, but the are 15" instead of 14". This pic shows what they look like, the car in this pic is actually an ex police skyline, so the wheels are identical to those I am after.

    • Hope you aren't too sore after that one, might take a day or 2 to notice yet and I guess it is a loooooong drive home. On the bright side, tube frame front end is a thing at superlap, right?

    • The chart of front pressure to rear pressure (with one being on the x axis and the other being on the y axis) is not a straight line on a typical proportioning valve. At lower pressures there is a straight line with one slope, and at higher pressures that changes to a lower slope. That creates a bend in the line at that pressure, called the knee point. If you do not change the proportionng as the pressure gets higher, you will suffer excessive pressure (at one end of the car or the other, depending on which way you look at the proportioning action) and then get lockups at that end. The HFM BM57, from my memory of previous discussions, is based on the BM57 from a different car (to a Skyline), with a different requirement for the location of the knee point and the distribution of pressure front to rear, and so is not a good choice for an upgrade on a Skyline. Here's a couple of links to some old posts, one from here, one from elsewhere. A lot of it pertains to adjustable prop valves, but the idea is the same. There are plenty of discussions on here about this issue from al the many years of people wanting a cheap/accessible option. https://grassrootsmotorsports.com/forum/grm/learn-me-brake-proportioning-valves/236880/page1/ https://grassrootsmotorsports.com/forum/grm/learn-me-brake-proportioning-valves/236880/page1/  
    • Yeah dunno why johhny posted that here with no context, just post on FB/insta bro where he put it up?  Laine had an off at T4 during Thurs prac, he's ok, car is less than perfect, they are done for the weekend, he can fill in the rest. Bando also binned it like 100m up the road.   
    • I feel there must have been a FB/insta post and the weekend did not start well at all I hope everyone is all okay
