I think the fronts will fit ok, I think the rears might be stretching the friendship....altho having said that, here's an R33 GTR with 18x11s and it looks fine - obviously offset would be a little more conservative;

passing this ad onto a friend, awesome wheels and even better price.

>> shipping will probably be $50+ per wheel. i got quoted 40 bux per wheel for 15x7" with no tyres from sydney so i imagine these will be more to brisbane and a bigger wheel.

Wheels are still here.

...to those who have PM'd me wanting freight prices I apologise, work has been nuts. I will get prices asap.

Hi Chris,

Let me know when you have a price(s) for shipping to Brisbane ;)

I am still very keen on these rims ;)

Also, a side note for those S13 people out there with 5 stud conversions.. you'll need approx 5" wider rear guards and 3" wider front guards to fit these :P

Regards,

Sherwin

I beg to differ young Sherwin...I test fitted them under the back of my old R32 4 door and I needed to pull the guards out 70mm to clear the rears. Bearing in mind 1 inch = 25.4mm, 70mm = 2.75 inches. In addition, an S13 has bigger rear guards & tubs than an R32 4 door and is also more dish 'friendly' - as it's a coupe and has the full quarter to play with (i.e. no rear doors).

You'll definitely need wide body or flares, but 5 inches is a bit extreme IMHO. Too bad I don't have my S13 anymore to test fit them.

Up ya get!

If they are still there in about a week or so then i'll pick them up.

If anything i'll need spacers to cover up my wheel arches i think i went a bit overboard with my widebody

I used an offset calculator to got those dimensions.. but I was doing it with 3 different rims at the time so I may have them mixed up??

Either way, when you have a price for shipping to Brisbane, Pm me with the payment details :thumbsup:

      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?

      Blue/grey smoke after idle

      By pacman_1219 · Posted

      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.
