Hi Guys,

I'm trading in my r33 and the dealer has offered me $7000 (tightass) I'm going to accept the offer unless I can get rid of it in a week. I'd much rather it go to someone interested in skylines then the dealer making 3-4 grand on it.

car has 172,000 km's (I commute from Mt Macedon to the City each day)

The car has had a $4000 engine rebuild done 2,000kms ago, and had turbo inspected. (have receipts) so don't let the High km's scare you off.

Car has been dyno'ed since rebuild with 200 at the wheels in Epping Electronic Automotive.

Car has:

Trust Front Mounted V-spl intercooler installed by XTC

HKS Super SQV BOV (inbox, stock bov currently fitted on car)

Apexi AVC-R boost controller tuned for 12psi at epping electronic Automotive.

Apexi mega dunk exhaust with 3" dump pipe from turbo and hiflow cat.

Hi-FLOW fuel pump installed by Epping Electronic Automotive.

Diaken (spelling) Sports Clutch

Koni rear shocks

POD filter (stock air box included incase you get defected)

Splitfire coilpack

inside

JVC MP3/DVD head unit and after market rear and front speakers. (Headunit can play dvdr's of MP3's only ever need 1 dvdr on you and your set for days.)

Brant Nemesis Alarm with keypad. (alarm fitted to wrx's) The alarm played up last week and as a result I got the alarm module unwired, brant can fix/replace this for about $300 I just haven't bothered as I'm trying to get rid of it.

I got defected 3-4 weeks back for external bov and too low, since I had the springs lifted 15mm so you'll never have to worry about getting dicked for too low and the stock bov put on.

This required a RWC so all the minor details have been fixed up and rwc was issued.

I'm selling car without RWC but as stated should be no issues getting one as I had one 3-4 weeks ago (can provide rwc rec from when I cleared defect).

I went to trade it in as I don't like dealing with private sales, I don't like tyre kickers, I don't like rocket pilots etc.

my time is worth more to me then stuffing around then making an extra 3 grand.

as a result I'm willing to let car go for $1500 more then dealer has offered me as its a bargin and should go to someone instead of a greedy dealer who will turn around and sell it for 10 to 12 grand in a week I'm sure.

the only real issue with car is the front bar and bonnet have some nasty stone cips but shouldn't be more then 200-300 to get this painted. And the alarm needs a new module in it which brant will do for about $300

Just to summarise my time is valueable to me as I work 4pm to midnight and I'm one of those people who don't get up till 30 minutes before work therefore I have little free time during "normal" hours.

So feel free to come up to Mt Macedon and look at it, drive it, have the racv/your mechanic come and test it whatever but I'm not going to take the car down to your mechanic or local workshop etc. as thats the whole reason I'm willing to trade it in as conviences is worth more to me then money.

Anyway on that note if you want a fairly nice example with a good base of mods and a fresh engine for $8500 leave your email and I'll provide you my contact details.

but I stress please don't waste my time if your not interested.

Regards,

Tate

    • I think my main complaint with your idea is that there is a veneer of idealism spread across it. You want the simple numbers to make it easier, but all they will do is make it easier for someone to come to the wrong conclusion because the fine details will kick them in the nuts. As it is right now, the tiny bit of arithmetic is NOT the obstacle to understanding what will fit and what will not fit. The reality of trying it is what determines whether it will fit. If you had a "standard rule" that R34 GTT guards have that magic 100mm space from the hub face to whichever side you were worried about, and someone said "excellent, this wheel is only 98mm in that direction, I'll just go spend $4k on them and jam them on my sick ride".....they would just as likely find out that the "standard rule" is not true because the rear subframe is offset to one side by a fairly typical (but variable) 8mm on their car and they only have 92mm on one side and 108 on the other.
    • It still combines inches with mm, especially when you have .5 inches involved, and mm and inches that can go in either direction. This would give a clear idea on both sides of the rim, right away, with no arithmetic. Even better if somebody gives you the dimensions of the arch of multiple cars. i.e GTR may be 125mm, a A80 Supra may be 117mm, or something along those lines. Yes, you can 'know' that going from a 10in rim to a 10.5in rim with the same offset moves both sides about 6mm, but you still have to 'know' that and do the math. Often it's combined. People are going from 9.5 +27 to 10.5 +15. You may do the math to know it, but if it was going from (I had to go look it up to be sure) 241mm/2 - 27 - 93.5mm from the center line to (more math) 266/2 - 15 (118mm) from the center line. Versus 93mm vs 118mm. It's right there. If you know you have a GTT with 100mm guards you can see right away that one is close to flush and the other absolutely won't work. And when someone says "Oh the GTR is 120mm" suddenly you see that the 10.5 +15 is about perfect. (or you go and buy rims with approximately 118mm outward guard space) I think it's safe to say that given one of the most common questions in all modified cars is "How do offsets work" and "How do I know if wheels will fit on my car" that this would be much simpler... Of course, nothing will really change and nobody is going to remanufacture wheels and ditch inches and offset based on this conversation :p We'll all go "18x9+30 will line up pretty close to the guards for a R34 GTT (84mm)" but 'pretty close' is still not really defined (it is now!) and if you really care you still have go measure. Yes it depends on camber and height and dynamic movement, but so do all wheels no matter what you measure it for.
    • But offsets are simple numbers. 8" wheel? Call it 200mm, near enough. +35 offset? OK, so that means the hub face is that far out from the wheel centreline. Which is 2s of mental arithmetic to get to 65mm to outer edge and 135mm to inner. It's hardly any more effort for any other wheel width or offset. As I said, I just close my eyes and can see a picture of the wheel when given the width and offset. That wouldn't help me trust that a marginal fitment would actually go in and clear everything, any more than the supposedly simple numbers you're talking about. I dunno. Maybe I just automatically do numbers.
    • Sure! But you at least have simple numbers instead of 8.5 inches +/mm, relative to your current rims you do maths with as well, and/or compare with OEM diameter, which you also need to know/research/confirm..
