nah i need to sell them Krishy. they have $850 worth of awesome condish tyres on them so im only asking $450 for the rims? yeh they are in the main section, ive dropped to 1300.

Problem is, the resale of tyres is pretty much nil, unless they're semis. To sell a set of road tyres on their own, you'd be lucky to find anyone willing to pay upwards of $400 even for the best shit. Most people looking at your rims will just see driftteks for $1300, which they can get without tyres somewhere else for like $1000 or less, put cheap $100 secondhandies on and be done with it.

I'd just put $1000 on them to get rid of them if it were my wheels. Sure you get 300 less, but you gain $1000 (because the rims might actually sell then :D)

Also damo isn't one of them cracked??

If that's the case then they are worth even less.

OK

Being the resourceful young lad that I am, I have a few handy links in my bookmarks. One of these is for japanese luxury car specialist - Fabulous. Now, these blokes build some damn nice vehicles, with some hefty price tags to boot.

Take this here S Class for example. Now the S Class isn't really a cheap car. I guess the guys at Fabulous thought along the lines of 'well if they can afford that, they can afford to pay big for mods' :)

The one in that pic has front bar, side skirts, rear bar, rear bootlip spoiler, chrome taillight additions, driving lights and some rather large wheels :rofl: The cost for these additions?

$28100 :D

Chuck the 'Fabulous Luxury Floormat' set in as well for $1500, why not :rofl:

Still, if you had an F430 and wanted a front splitter, side skirts and some trimming around the exhausts you'll pay 14k for FRP. 19.5k if you want carbon :P

Throw in the Sachs racing suspension package and set of 20s with the body mods and you're 54 thousand dollars lighter :)

    • Hi soviet_merlin, We appreciate your concern regarding this possibly being some sort of PR/Political hype, I assure you that is not the case, I wish we could claim something like that, but in this case, we merely reached out for comment on the basis of the outrage we too felt, as those heavily in the automotive industry. Ps. the original source in the social media post is CarExpert not CarExplore.    Best, CE.
    • Made a bit of a discovery, but while I was cruising, I randomly decided to test to see if it worked and it showed up on my IC7. The entire time I tested it before, I never thought to turn the ignition on. I only tested it with head lights turned on but with the ignition off. Huge oversight on my end. I’m a dummy. I know. 
    • G'day all, I have drilled and tapped the hole for the relocation of the timing belt tensioner. That was straight forward. I'm unsure if I need to also put another hole for the smaller stud that the spring behind the tensioner catches on (this is how it seems to work in its original spot). Or do you not use the spring behind it and just torque it down? Thanks in advance, I did a search but couldn't find anything related and it doesn't mention it in the rb30det sau guide.
    • Hi All,  just thought I would provide an update as I know smooth (Matt) was on this forum from 2003.    my brother Matthew passed away end of may 2024 at the age of 41 from liver failure. I am not sure how many of his original team krazy friends are still on here or active but thought it reasonable to let the forum know.    if you have any photos or pictures it would be great if you could share them.    it took me a while to work out he was active on here.    thanks so much
