Hi all, just got myself into an R32 gtst and am after a new set of wheels so im wondering who would be recommended to try around perth?? nor/sor - pref nor

someone has mentioned 'tek9' (i think) who are sor but i cant find any contact details.

ive been to the local ttf but the wheels there just aint worth it. and as ive read on here already not many places do 17x8's or upto x9's (if they'd fit) unless i go for 18"

im after some "race look" style wheels but dont want to spend up on buddy club p1's .....yet

also if anyone can link me up to some specific pics of 32's with 17's and some with 18's i'd appreciate it as im yet to see/decided on what size i feel would suit what i wanna do. 18's might look too big for the look i want.

this is also an official G'gay to you all as well, as im a Noob to these forums and the whole skyline thing and will be prolly chasing down alot of info around here over the next few months..

p.s. sorry for another wheel related thread :P

There's a place on Scarborough Bch Rd opposite Jason Mazda called 'Hot Rims' or something that I drive past a lot that looks like they have quite a range. They have their stock on display through the window of their 2 storey shop. Don't know what sort of prices they charge though; I went there one Saturday and they weren't open. 'Mr Mags' has a huge range also.

Hot Rims on corner of Scarborough Bch Road and Hutton St is decent. Can get all the rims that Tempe Tyres/Ozzy Tyres sell plus high end US rims too, no doubt they can get Jap wheels too.....

Check them out :P

Buy jap Rims!

Some guys on nissan silvia forums import alot of new and used rims from japan almost all are 5 stud. There are some VERY nice rims there to be purchased! Or if you know someone get someone in Japan to get them off yahoo auctions

Make sure you get the correct offset!

Too many people only look at rimdiameter... you don't want to realise you're 18's sit WAY in and end up hating your purchase a month down the track!

...my two cents...

      It's the adhesive holding the ceramic wheel to the shaft the fails on 90% of them.

      Foreign debris, physical shock, boost leak, could be anything honestly. The danger in taking all the timing out of a tune/hitting the R&R corner is that even if the engine doesn't detonate your turbo is taking a lot of abuse from high EGT. Also, even if nothing goes wrong it is a journal bearing that is spinning at 100k RPM on boost. Eventually it goes through enough cold start/pressure cycles to wear it out.

      Possible option to replace central computer 370 V36

      By Vee37 · Posted

      I kinda accidentally saw this, and was interested, but It actually seems to replaces the whole center computer, using the existing screen and buttons. AND it may only be for a G37 and not compatible with a Japanese 370. So its not for me, but someone else may be interested to look into it. Its about $680USD. If I am understanding it right, it basically replaces/installs and android pc that integrates with the existing screen. But I could be wrong. https://gromaudio.com/vline/ The video I first saw was the following, with very little and unclear details.     Even if your not interested in the system, the video on their site was pretty comforting in showing how simple the whole centre comes out

      Import insurance in 2025

      I’m with Shannon’s for all 5 of our cars. Agreed values seem fair, premium price is okay. ($210 ish a month, all comprehensive).  Have claimed once with them for a not at fault claim with another car where my car had no damage. Was one call after the incident and an email after. Deemed not at fault so premium didn’t go up either.    I have called up and spoken with people who are not familiar with certain cars and didn’t agree with me on value or let their personal vehicle preferences effect the call. But called back later and got someone else who was more agreeable.
