ok...so here's the deal. I'm planning on getting a set of Tenzo R Dc-5's in staggered fitment

19 X 8.5 +22

19 X 10 + 19

only trouble is, the only place that I could find in Australia that has stock of these wheels are tempetyres. I called them up, but they are not willing to sell them in staggered sizes

so I will need to get a full set of 19 x 8.5 (4 pieces ) and 19 X 10 (also 4 ..apparently these were specific for the GTR).

I'm not sure of the colours available, but I'm just putting it out there if anyone is interested in buying these with me and we can then swap 2 fronts and 2 rears to make 2 sets of staggered wheels.

Leaning towards maybe a timeattack white....but I'm open to any preference coz I can always get them powdercoated.

Also, another thing is .....most pictures of these wheels on the internet shows that the rims are straight faced and not concaved. The guys at wheelworx told me that with low offset, the wheels are actually a nice concave....so I was thinking get the 19 X 8.5 +22 first....and if its not to satisfaction....then sell them off and split the loss.

PM me if your interested.

nah....dude at tempe said he wouldn't sell them separately is coz its low volume stock and he doesn't want to end up with odd width rims that no ones else buys.

Pretty sure that there's plenty of forum members running staggered wheels and I've never heard of these being illegal, but you may be right.

maybe the reason they wont sell staggered size is because staggered widths are illegal unless thats how your car came from factory

Good thing he has a V35 then! 225/45R18 fronts, 245/45R18's rear!

    • I'm not up to date on the latest, but for basic modifications like pod filter, lower springs etc you can get a modification permit at the time of inspection.  For more serious modifications you will need engineering.  Intercoolers used to fall into the mod permit rule but its been a long while since i looked it up.   Either way you will be able to get it registered, just a case of $300 vs $3k . 
    • Hi everyone! I’m the new owner of a 1996 R33 GTS-T, I’ve purchased this car over from Queensland and brought it to Western Australia and I’ve found that there is a hole cut out in the engine bay for the FMIC that enters into the wheel well (fender liners are in the boot). For anyone that has had to get their car over the PITS here, will this be a major issue?   
    • Yeah I've spotted this one too, whenever it's lotto superdraw week and I'm browsing car sales dot com for my new ride They must be dreaming, maybe it's worth 150k for the link to Brock?
    • 100% accurate!  We are a pack of know it alls....  But, I bet people go to you when they have a problem! I've been on a bit of a clean up rampage too over the past month!  I've thrown more shit in the bin over the past 2 weeks than I have in the past 3 years combined! Anyway, it's all good fun being different! My wife sometimes does not agree!  
    • ADHD in all form isn't about "can focus, or can't focus" or is hyper active or isn't etc.   It's all a dysregulation. Either time feels to be stationary, or time just vanishes in a split second. We are either under focussed on the task at hand (as we're over focussed on our surroundings) or we have no idea an atomic bomb went off beside us as we're so hyper focussed and locked in on things.   Not to mention the rapid fire thought process. What it takes a "normal" process to think up a solution to a problem, ADHD will be able to give you 5 different ways to solve the problem, and the pros and cons of each. While we can be highly impulsive and lack the ability to "control ourselves" we can also become paralysed with the inability to make a decision for ourselves. While most of us have an OCD like requirement for perfection, we lack the ability often to remain focussed to get things to a perfect state. Those with undiagnosed ADHD as adults, can often find the last part actually stops them ever attempting to do things that they have the ability to do, as the reasoning is often "if I can't do it perfectly, it's not worth doing"   As for projects... Ha ha ha, I still need to take the other half of my wall trim down in the Fiance's office so I can paint it. Need to finish digging and running the back yard drains, my R33, getting the Ninja bike registered (now being sold), the moped project, fixing either of the lawn mowers so they're reliable, along with a myriad of other things.   It's why I've been going through lately and just being brutal and clearing projects off that I won't actually ever complete. IE, moped will go to the tip, or be given away, bike is being sold, Subaru project being sold, some parts for other projects given away. Or I've been making myself focus on one thing at a time, by ticking off the smallest quickest ones first.   There's also a reason by our mid twenties we seem to be "know it alls", as we've all been down some of the weirdest and oddest rabbit holes when you follow the dopamine trail. It's often also why we're more a jack of all trades, but not a master of one.   However, pretty much all of my hobby projects, in one way or another, all come back around to automotive. That's my zen area.
