pretty sure it won't fit my car.

hope someone starts selling these 5 spoke BeeR copies soon, they are just too nice to ignore

You may already know im not sure, but Otomoto are selling the real thing. Going for 500 per wheel for 18s, have a squizz at http://www.otomoto.com.au/beer.htm if youre keen. BTW i have zero association with this company just saw them advertising in HPI (yes i know he owns the store and is the editor of the magazine too!!)

as much I love original products, money is still an issue for me. Guess i'll get them when I get a bettter paying job.

BeeR copies gonna be the the new implus now? Oh noes

hope not........i think the impuls dish look is still popular, heck even I was tempted to get some......but i'll be wanting some BeeR wheels in the very distant future.

why do you need copies? they are cheap as already. they cost around the same as a set of starcorps or whatever. $500 a pop is as cheap as your ever going to get for an 18 inch wheel that doesn't look like arse.

pretty sure the GTR size ones are 18X9.5. of course the Bee-R/uras/d-tek/driftek/whatever are all basically copies of the rays nismo LMGT4s. They are all cast, hence the low price.

edit: what site are you looking at stanski? in 18inch they ONLY come in 9.5inch.

B5 racing wheels

Bee Racing’s own five-spoke wheel as used on the Bee Racing D1 car. Available in two sizes, with 5x114.3mm PCD only. Silver, bronze, white and super-chrome are available to order. Call for availability as various colours are kept in stock.

17x9 +25mm offset $479 each

18x9.5 +25mm offset $499 each

18x9.5 +38mm offset $499 each

i too am a fan of the Bee-R wheels, but they are WAAAYYY to wide (at the front) for me, so unless they make different sizes, a copy or getting them fixed and narrowed would be the only option

Problem (like someone has mentioned) is that the Bee-Rs are built for GTRs only so there is no way the 17x9 (+25) will fit under the front guards of a GTS-t.

However, the Bee-R copies come in smaller rim sizes (17") with GTS friendly offset.

That's the main reason people go for the copies.

Anyway here's a Aussie seller where you can get the copies (D-Spec brand):

As you can see they come in 17x8.0" +30 which suit GTSs (and 200SXs etc)

However if you think the D-Spec brand is not good quality, you can also get Bee-R copies made by the trusted JDM brand URAS:

Funnily enough they are the same price as D-Spec!

who'd buy r34 gtr wheels when you could buy those beeR for 500 each

finally the r34 gtr wheels might be priced what they are actually worth. that is, around 1000$

you are living in a fantasy land. Bee-r rims are a CAST wheel. genuine 34 GTR wheels are FORGED. That alone accounts for a massive difference in price. Plus I am not 100% sure where the Bee-R wheels are made but the genuine 34 wheels are definately made in japan. They are standard equipment on a $100K+ supercar. Bee-r wheels are a relatively cheap, aftermarket wheel. there is no real comparison.

    • Hi all. Been a while but things are moving along. I just have something that I am wondering about. Since I will use OEM turbo oil pumbing, I got myself a new bolt, the one that goes into the engine block oil feed. As I recall (and see visually) this bolt comes restricted with I think a 1.7mm hole? Not quite sure but it was something around that size. The turbos have 1mm restrictor bolts installed, as necessary due to ball bearings and my higher oil pressures. Can I now just use that OEM bolt with the 1.7mm hole in for the engine block or will this actually be too much oil flow restriction and I have to drill it out first? In my head it would make sense for the bolt to be at least 2mm wide as both turbos take "1mm of oil flow". Do let me know if my logic is flawed here, I just want to make sure I don't kill my turbo bearings with too little oil. Don't know if I can trust the saying I read somewhere that ball bearing turbos essentially only need an oil mist
    • There are several aftermarket options available, from not-too-painful moneyhttps://justjap.com/collections/driveshafts-bearings/products/d-max-reinforced-replacement-rear-driveshaft-set-fits-nissan-s13-s14-s15-r32-r33-r34-c35 and  https://justjap.com/products/crank-motorsport-billet-rear-axles-fits-nissan-skyline-r33-gts-t-r34-gt-t?srsltid=AfmBOorQk4xkGUa98kO7v2ePLUiNt-HRrM2AwWNw9mbSIVE1ujBVwY__, all the way up to The Driveshaft Shop https://driveshaftshop.com/skyline-cv-axles/
    • Yeah based on old XRC5964S specs, it looks to be roughly GTX3576R sized? But this 5964S compressor will flow 90lb airflow somewhat similar to the compressors in both the GTX3584RS or G35-1050.. I fully expected the 0.64 rear A/R to choke up top - seems way too small from typical convention - but these are seemingly beneficial over the prior 0.82 results.. Be interesting to see if he comments on the EFR question in that thread - he mentioned in a prior video that BW EFR's were the "cats pajamas 10 years ago", but by the sounds of things all his kits have been using Xona for quite a while now.
    • Yeah it’s still got the oem manual gearbox and clutch, only kinda mods are a blow off valve, coil overs, and a aftermarket intercooler. Also had it for about 2 months now with a lovely midnight purple paint on it.
    • Yeeeppp, been following a lot of the testing on the latest Xona stuff and there are some mental results.  He also went over 1000hp @ 4 hubs on his Mainline with a XRE6364S (63mm) which was also well into the 20psi range before 4000rpm on a 2.5. Crazy stuff. Fwiw the XRE5964S is basically the modern equivalent of their old HTA3582 - would drive nicely enough on an RB25 or 26, but proven capable of a huge amount of power if you want to spicy with rpm tho even at sane boost levels will make stout numbers
