cheers mate, ill have a look into that.

cant say i do lol, who is on your hit list.

this diggeah friend of mine and his lawyer, the trick is to get him to sign his will

and get his lawyer to certify it (all assets to me) before killing them both :)

Edited by POLICE

do you reckon theyd look as good if you bought standard coloured ones (like the silver) and had them painted up like these they would look the same, and how much would it cost to paint?

btw police, that sounds like you have a serious plan on ur hands :(

cheers

been searching import monster for a while now and all iv found are the red ones and only 1 set of them.

had a couple of offers from people with silver ones, but it will cost me as much as the rims to paint them.

any body know of any one with a set of them?

you know when you make your mind up after ages of looking and then you just gotta have it!

cheers guys

Some for sale here <---

but they are in 18s and probably stick out too much on a r33 since they were on a widebody s15 as stated in the sale

also if you join www.jdmstyletuning.com

they have a set of 17s for sale but in silver 17x8 and 17x9 with offsets that would suit a r33 gtst

thanks for your help mate, unfortunatley im ultra picky and am only after the blue and black like in the picture.

yet again thanks, but am still searching!

chances are that when you do find em they'll need a freshen up anyways so buy em cheap and fix em up and coat em... then they will be basically brand new and cheaper than new ones...

$200 to spin all four and get rid of gutter rash

$240 to powder coat all four (or so one person said he got em done for)

I paid $500 to get strip & coat my sparcos and I paid $300 for the rims so all up $1000 for brand new lightweight racing rims, thats cheap as... oh plus $80 for new black alloy nuts... Go try and find decent rims brand new for under $2200, good luck...

yeah i guess that is very true, do they have to specialize in painting rims or can you get it done at like a good panel beaters shop that do resprays?

I would go powder coat or go to a coating specialist, craved on here does powder coating and his stuff looks real good....

But do goto a good rim repairer, the guy I know on the Central Coast is great, if he can't repair it he don't charge you...

thanks heaps for your help mate, now i just gotta get a cheap set with crazy offset and find a good shop in melbourne :) .

thanks again, btw if anyone sees any cheapish super advans with offset to fill flared gaurds and in the previous mentiond size that would be awsome.

thanks everyone

    • I would paint match the whole thing to avoid unwanted attention  I had a similar bonnet, paint matched, on my old R33 GTST, but mine was a fibreglass jobbie made by Blitz in QLD, they work extremely well for radiator efficiency and under bonnet temps
    • Does anyone run this kit with factory plenum? Does the adapter and bosch tb fit under factory strut brace? I wanted to get this setup before going forward facing manifold. Thanks
    • small update time, after always wanting a "cool" looking bonnet for my car and always struggling to find one for the series 2 that i liked and wasn't an insane amount of money. Saw one i liked on RHDjapan from D-speed in Japan the price was very good for a carbon bonnet so good infact i was a little unsure how much i trusted it, decided to bite the bullet and with the help of jesse streeter in not long at all it was at my door. Once it was delivered i ran in from work and quickly unboxed it and to my surprise the quality was actually pretty good i quickly removed the old bonnet and placed on the new one to test it out and even the fitment wasnt too bad at all. Then decided to paint the little grille in the bonnet black to stop it sticking out so much.   I decided to not mess around with the hood latch and just install some aero catch hood pins, having never installed them before did some YouTube university classes and i was good to go. fair to say it is not a fun job at all from making brackets so the pins sit nicely and actually cutting through the bonnet but also being very scared of cutting the holes too big it took wayyyy longer than i would like to admit but finally got it there. Then it was time for a quick test drive to ensure the latches actually worked and thankfully the bonnet looked very stable. I still think paint matching the bonnet and leaving just the part that sticks up as carbon would help make it all look alot neater as im not sure how i feel about all that carbon on a very fridge white car but will leave it as is and see how i feel with time.  
    • I think it's bound to happen, you finally get it all perfect, and bam, something will happen. I took a while to get a Commodore rear quarter repaired where a P Plater clipped it. Two days after getting it back, Sarah wiped it out on a concrete pillar in an underground car park... This is why I take forever to repair them, it stretches how long until it gets bent again... 😛
    • Nah, not really responsible for that little fiasco, but I'm still pissed at myself for writing off my 86, or when I reversed my VX into a pole just before selling it, but, meh, 5hit happens to stuff, all it takes is a slight distraction, and life is full of distractions, and "dooh" moments
