My poor old R31 seat snapped: There's only a couple of bits of thin steel folded in a C holding the seat back rigid. Pretty surprised at how ephemeral it all was. Thinking of replacing the fronts with R33 seats. How are later Skyline seats constructed? A bit stronger?

Reading comprehension fail. You're delusional. No-one (except me) is stupid enough to continue. For anyone thinking of buying, this guy is strictly a cash on pickup proposition only.

What an extraordinarily fantastic self-justifying internal monologue you have!

So 32 GT-R wheel with tyre would be around 18kg or so anyway? Anyone weighed one? (The ROH was an example of a fairly nasty wheel, that's why I was surprised the GTS-t wheel was nearly the same weight, as the ROH looks like it has lots of excess material, but the GTS-t wheel looks pretty clean.)

Wow, I'm a little surprised as I thought of that wheel as looking quite light. So are those wheel cast then? A wheel weight website somewhere said the 32 GT-R wheel is 16lb/7.2kg, but that's just the wheel. Anyone weighed the 32 GT-R wheel with a tyre mounted? (Obviously varies with tyre, but for a rough idea?) I had some 17" ROH Adrenalines that weighed 19kg with a tyre, and I thought that was pretty porky, but maybe not that unusual? Current ones are 15kg with tyre, and I was casting about for something potentially lighter, hence wondering about 32 GT-R wheel/tyre weight.
