Baught from them, they were excellent. One year ago 18" Rims with tyres for $1500 i think with lock nuts. St george tyres arent bad either, way cheaper them tempe, not quiet as much range. VERY fast response too via email.

Usually when your keen on buying something though, you ring up, order them (like i did) and pay via credit card or another alternative and they'll send them out to you. Not many genuine buyers purchase items via email.

Think you'll find too when you pay for them they send you down a fax, you fill it in, sign it etc etc, and thats your security for the purchase.

That's a good point, they are very cheap and usually any place that's far cheaper than the rest is quite busy. They may also have less staff than comparable organisations to keep costs down =)

Pump them with email or better yet call them, they've gotta answer the phone =D

Try Big O-Tyres. I was pleasantly surprised by helpful they were with trial fitting rims on my car, very patients with me while im ummmed and erred over the decision. No pressure at all.

Good bunch of ppl too, and have a good range of bling rims, racey rims and quality rims. I had no idea if i got a good price, until i did some howework weeks after, and it turns out they were well priced to boot :)

Dont know if thats indicative of the service they normally provide, or i got lucky, but worth a try. ( i will add that they were recommended by a friend who rang them to say i was swingign by...so that may have put their mind at ease that i was walkign off with rims and they probably werent too stressed with me walkign away having wasted their time)

I dont live in Sydney so they sent my rims out. One they sent me was the wrong one (dunno how they could send me 3 the same and one wrong but anyway) It was a bit of a hassel trying to sort it out. If you have any trouble just make sure you get their name and always ask for them next time you ring.

    • Can you enlighten me on your best practice regarding these hoses? I don't wanna make the same mistake if you already got a better solution.
    • I have some silicon hoses already, for example engine to watercooler. But yeah, I get the sentiment. The lower intercooler silicon hose is drippy too, despite not being very old. Does anyone except Nismo make these same lines out of rubber? Long term I think they'd be the better replacement, especially since the car won't live as hard a life anymore as in the past nor be driven as often.
    • I know most issues are just age related. But for example the turbo oil drains, there is dash adapters for these and you can just make a braided teflon line for them and (probably) never have them leak again. Also not terribly expensive. Can you even get the factory hardlines from new? Or are they repairable if they break?
    • I know it'd be much much easier with the tool. I hope I can find one that won't take 3 weeks to get to me an isn't a "Asian models kit" that has tons of (to me) useless adapters for a load of cash.   It's a summer project/fun car. I do wanna enjoy it, without endless downtime over and over. So yeah I would even go and buy an engine crane + stand to save myself the trouble of hard to reach or unreachable places going bad later on. Would also be a good opportunity to put on a Fluidamper, renew the mains seals and stuff like that. I have some money on the side that I can use for that, what I wouldn't want to or be able to do is let everything be done by a shop or have my engine completely rebuild right now. I intend to do most of the "doable" jobs myself. Pulling an engine can't be that hard, can it?
    • Evening all. Got this odd issue with my R34 GTT. If I let the car idle for around 15 seconds or more (even when cold) and I jab the throttle a bit, a decently sized plume of blue/grey smoke comes out the exhaust. Doesn't smoke when idling alone, just when giving it some gas after idling. No smoke on cold start or from what I know, normal driving. Not 100% sure about smoke on decel but I don't think there's any. Any pointers on what I should start doing to troubleshoot it? Or if anyone has experienced the same I'd love to get some insight. Cheers.
