Item: 4 x 17" Work Equip 3 piece wheels (this is the model that Starcorp Racing make replicas of, but these are the real deal)

Location: Eastern Shore of Hobart, Tasmania.

Website: Check out http://www.workwheelsusa.com/category.php?category=43 for more information.

Item Condition: Used, but in good condition, no buckles or dents or anything. Some gutter rash.

Reason for Selling: They are for sale as I only recently purchased them to fit to an old Valiant, however even with 35mm hub adapters there's rubbing issues, so these arn't going to do the job - I've since found a set of Simmons from another Valiant and am selling these to raise the funds for the Simmons. I also tried on my Falcon, but the wheels won't fit over the 343mm front brake rotors and 4 piston AP Racing callipers.

Price and Payment Conditions: Asking around $1,000.00, but open to offers.

Extra Info: They are 5 x 114.3 PCD which is the Falcon, Skyline etc. stud pattern. The offset is somewhere around 40+ which is correct for these type of vehicles too (you can use the Wheel Wizard on Tempe Tyres website to work out what your vehicles offset and PCD is if your not sure - http://www.tempetyres.com.au/wheel_wizard.asp ). Front 2 must be around 8" wide as they have 235/45 R17 tyres fitted, while the rear 2 have 255/40 R17 wider tyres. Tyres are in good condition.

Arhhh nice wheels shame bout the offset.

Thank you for that valuable input. Not sure why you don't like the offset. 40+ is what AU onwards Falcons, Magnas, S14 and S15 Nissans, 350ZX, some of the Skylines (e.g. R32,33,34 GTS-T), some RX7's etc. use.

    • Yep, replacing all those hoses is kind of just bog standard if you're ever back there. Only hose on the back of the engine I have yet to replace is a vacuum hose for the wastegate. I'll probably do it eventually but it's in such an annoying spot.
    • I was actually just planning on replacing the fourth gear parts in the gear box that I broke … like the synchro hub or cone. And any other parts I need once I open up the transmission. That a bad idea? The rest of the gears feel tight. these parts shouldn’t be too much … just the labour here won’t be cheap. Just replacing these in HK would be around 2k aud including labour.    how much is a new r33 or r32 transmission?    thanks for the good info as usual       
    • I chose a bad time to buy, at the time there was no gtst's for sale in NSW and my options were qld, vic, or sa and not the greatest examples or too far out of my budget. Ended up picking this one from adelaide sight unseen and got a bit stitched up as you could expect but i dont fully regret it, its just a shame people cant be more transparent in this day and age.
    • IMO just buy a whole R33 transmission and swap the whole thing. Use a palm nailer/air hammer with a roll pin punch to drive the shifter rod end roll pins out. The rod end is discontinued so don't break it. Use gasket dressing on the OEM paper gasket instead of RTV. I personally would not pry on the shifter cover tabs, I broke one trying that instead of just smacking the side with a dead blow rubber mallet to shock it loose from the RTV the last mechanic applied. If you can't get the flanges totally clean and free of any residual RTV and/or you might have a gap that is bigger than it should due to flange damage use RTV on that surface instead of the OEM specced anaerobic sealer. Anaerobic sealer is most likely the right sealant for the job, it's just too easy to mess it up with too large a gap or bad surface prep/roughness seemingly. If you do rebuild what you have it's for a whole gearset that can take high torque. Don't bother with OEM at that point.
    • Little hose. Big hose. They're all waiting to kill the engine.
