Thinkin' bout getting the gold mock GTC's in 18inch for my Gt-t....a cheap option compared to the real deal..anybody shipped rims to melb or anywhere else from them?

Here's the pic of 'em

:no:

Just make sure you confirm with them that they will clear R34GTT 4 pot calipers at the front as not many wheels from tempe do that due to the weak offset, width and also spoke design. And don't let them tell you that running spacers is an option because they're illegal.

My brother bought a set of wheels n tyres from them and he was in Adelaide...no dramas, smooth transaction. Just make sure they FIT, as you don't want to be sending back wheels back and forth or trying to get refunds off them when ur interstate.

Mate no praise of Tempe Tyres from me....bought a set of rims and tyres, found out there was a manufacturing problem with one of the tyres, took it back and they would help me. felt like bad wheel balance and allignment. Tyre wasnt round...

No dramas for me... they couldnt supply the rims i wanted in a reasonable time frame after i made my payment so they gave me an awesome discount on another set. rims came to perth exactly the day when they advised me they would, well packaged. i'd use them again.

i dealt with them (through tyre power in adelaide). they are USELESS. rims didn't get here on time, sent commodore offset for the front, skyline rears. pay a little more and get em from someone else. tyre power hooked me up with some locknuts and better tyres for the hassle. don't use tempe. they are SH*T.

    • People still have Skylines? I thought they're non-existent now. 
    • Harness update time have had great fun and learnt so much already so far with this project. I started off making both the ignition and injector sub harnesses in the hope any mistakes i made here aren't as hard to undo and learn from as the main harness.  A cool comparison of the old harness using presumably TXL wire and the new which is using Tezel. Also opted to use DTM plugs to keep the whole setup as neat and tidy as possible and tucked the wiring under the coil bracket to try and keep it all from sticking out too much. Although the injector harness, I'm not overly happy with as I'm still using the rubber boots that are supplied with the type of plugs it just looks ugly and sticks out like a sore thumb with the white identifiers so a slight redesign may be done.   Then it was main harness time and most importantly trying to route it nice and away from the heat it will use the OEM heater hose routing which is no longer present to keep the harness up high and secure. it's amazing how much smaller this harness is able to be compared to the old one. plugged everything into the emtron and with the help of the tuner again attempted to start it up and instantly fired up and running smoothly on all 6 which was a big shock to myself. So still some routing and adjusting to be done for the final fit up and installing a knock sensor harness plug which is in the post all has gone surprisingly well.     The old harness for shits and giggles.
    • They do that at random every now and then, with almost no detectable cause. Mine has done it a couple of times (over 25 years!!). Never worked out why.
    • I don't post on here and have been lurking for some time now. Many of the topics have helped me out more times than i can count. I was racing yesterday (11/9) and blew a front right CV shaft. I have spares so I popped a new one in. A thread i read previously said to check the engine mounts if you blow a front CV. Upon inspection, the front right mount was completely separated from the upper plate. This discovery saved me time and money, because i would have blown another CV if i went back out. Just wanted to thank you guys and wish everyone luck with with their builds. (Now if we could only come up with a solution for my power steering belt flying off after hitting the rev limiter, lol)
    • Either way he still need those style of spacer to go into the manifold because the photo he currently has is not going to work
