Im in the market of purchasing some wheels for my R33 GTS-T. I particularly like the looks of the R34 GTR wheels. I played around with Adobe Photoshop and cut+pasted the wheels onto my car and it looked awesome, especially loved howl the titanium/gold suites my black duco.

Does anyone know if these wheels will fit on my car?

Ive got a 96 GTS-T SerII.

Thanks!

I don't think the R34 GTR wheels are suitable for the R33 GTST.

They are too wide in the front for a RWD.

Anyway, I have a set of rims that may 17x8 F & 17x9 R Volks/Rays rims that may interest you.

Don't believe anything on nengun's site. Everytime I have emailed to get a confirmation of a price/product the reply has basically been "no sorry we dont stock that anymore" or "the price is now...."

For instance the R34 GTR Used wheels he has on the site are only au$2400 now not $2700. (Aussie dolar gone up)

I guess the only way i can find out is if i can find someone who is willing enough to fit one on the front and one on the back and see how she sits?

Yr right in saying they are damn sexy benm...

Still, 2700 for some genuine GTR wheels is pretty good i reckon?

Has anyone purchased anything from Nengun?

shit, didn't realise that they were that cheap!! i don't think i'd really care if i bought some that were scratched a bit, still would look awesome.

reckon they'd fit on a R34 GT-T ok? (sorry bout the digression!)

Be wary of nengun

With used parts, for example R34 wheels vary in price. The reason for this is some have more scratches then others and the same goes for other used parts. If the Aus dollar drops against the yen then of course you can expect to pay more for your parts. ( "prices vary so much" ) Anyway you slice it if the dollar is low you won`t be too much out of pocket . If the Aus becomes too weak against the yen then I buy my new parts in bulk quanties, Hence I receive parts cheaper and so to does the customer. Anothor point is that these currency converters don`t exchange your funds, the banks do and they will always give you 2 to 3 cents less per $ than the currency exchange rate. Credit card companies make up their own rate + 3% on the total order. I don`t make up prices as I go along I just work of the bank exchange rate. If at times I have made a mistake on pricing, then by all means challange me on it.

How did you come up with the math of $300 difference. The AUS Dollar is getting stronger but it isn`t that strong. On my site the wheels are now 189,000 Yen which is $2700 AUS at the exchange rate of 70. Now if the Aus $ rises up to 85 Then you will only pay $2223 AUS for those wheels. On the other hand if it drops to 64 then you can expect to pay $2953 AUS. The only reason the Aus $ is on the site is because some people don`t understand how to convert from yen to the Aus $. If you want the current price all you have to do is ---189,000 Yen divide 70 AUS = $2700. From now on I will delete any AUS or US pricing and I will only advertise in yen.

i think they make quite a lot of $$ of selling GTR wheel, i have seen them selling for a$1050 for 4 rim in a import parts shop of HK. The shop make profit after the a$1050 selling price, so u can guess how much the GTR wheel really worth.

To Buy just 1 new R34 GTR Rim from Nismo is 120,000 yen divide 70 AUS = $1714 AUS X 4 rims $6857 AUS I sold a set that only had one small scratch on one rim. I classified them as near new I sold them for $2700 AUS My profit was 15% So you can really see I made a killing of profit.

      Thanks mate 👍 The car was brought into the UK by a USAF mechanic until he was stationed back to the US, one owner later I bought her back in 2009. Luckily the only corrosion was on the sill seams, so once taken back to metal and treated and sealed all ok, I then undersealed the car myself and check yearly and treat any corrosion which to be honest is zero. She's garaged most of the time and hardly ever driven in the rain, but as you say most are rotten unfortunately, I was lucky in finding her as she was and still is in excellent condition.

      Stunning car.  Looks amazing!  You're in the UK?  How the hell do you stop your car rotting away beneath you?  British cars are the WORST I've ever seen in regards to rust.  Some of the cars SR Autobody have done are borderbeyond saving.

      RB20 and 25 NEO differences

      By Neostead2000 · Posted

      I have up to date pics of the engine build and turbo conversion over on my instagram @skpro_jects if you want to take a deeper look.   Basically the exhaust manifold is straight bolt on and the ports match (they arent any smaller than a 25 or 26 head).    the intake ports are different shape so the 20/25det manifold will bolt up but wont match properly or seal. You will need to port match using the 25det gasket as a stencil. Personally i ran the entire stock 20neo intake setup and have configured the swirl valves and torque valve to work based on my custom parameters to help with off boost response and spool. But this is using a standalone aem v2 ecu. The stock 20det ecu wont be able to control them.

      Hi. a little later but if the topic is here. So...the exhaust is the same and you can use 25/Turbo or any aftermarket? What about intake side? Is it too "plug n play" or? (i do not remember for 100% but i think that one intake to head gasket was little bit different than on the RB25 - i bought gasket kit way back) I know that even if it "plug" those butterfly swirls would cause ECU to be confused or?   Just asking for the info 🙂 and of course the RB25 things are easier to come by
