dunno, we usually strip the tyres and turf em to save on shipping weight/size. works out about the same by the time you get the rims here and put brand spankers on.

Also in the auction the guy mentions that they were put on in 2006, so they're pretty munted and pretty much should be discarded.

just keep in mind you're gonna have to dump the car to get enough camber to bring them in with these wheels. They're epic fitment, but you'll need epic stance to pull em off. otherwise they'll be mexican.

oh you work there shan?

regarding tyres makes some sense i guess some cheapys would be ok to burn through some track days tho haha

what? no.

"we" as in me and my mates who bring stuff in.

You're paying 2700ish on wheels, don't be tight, pay some coin to wrap them in decent rubbers. Also, you're gonna use these on trackdays? *facepalm*

For a deca i would, but for like sandown / winton etc i will be wrapping the standard 33 GTR rims in some semi slicks or something similar more suited for track (dont want to be burning through 19" street tyres).

lol mexican.

yeh ill have to get it all setup correctly before i get rid of my n/a should look decent when done :D

Dear Leigh,

Congratulations, you have won the auction on item "RAYS GT C FACE1 19in10.5J 21 GT R", the closing price was 155,345¥

155 345 Japanese yen = 1 787.3009 Australian dollars (add on ~$1k for shipping)

woot woot happy :D

no fuck off. if you've made a bid with aaron don't back out now. don't screw up his yahoo rating by being flakey.

dirtbags that put down bids and then back out ought to be cuntpunched in their moodswinging sandy vaginas.

    • It's impossible to convey what it will feel like to get the right torque. But you can develop a feel for it. A 900mm breaker bar is.....f**king huge. I only use a normal ~400mm one. But with 900mm being very nearly a metre, and the right torque being in the order of 100Nm, then you're going to need a bit over 100N of force, which is about 10 kg. So if you practice using the bar pulling up, instead of pushing down, then it will be about the same effort as lifting a 10kg bucket of water. That's what the pressure against your fingers should feel like. Ish. If you use a more typical length breaker, then it's about twice that. So a good 20 litre bucket, or a little bit more.
    • Also, if anyone has a torque wrench around Williams Landing area and can lend it to me for like 5 mins - I got 4 bottles of Furphy left and I’ll throw that in with a Happy meal 😂
    • So today I decided to bleed my brake fluid, which meant to the wheels came off the car at my garage for the first time. I only had a 90cm breaker bar with me and I noticed that some 1 or 2 lug nuts were a bit hard to get loose (from when the shop did the coilovers) Now.... when it came to putting them back on, I didn't want to put all my weight and overtighten them. So I hand tightened as much as possible and then put normal pressure on the edge of the breaker bar and tightened it until I couldn't turn it anymore without putting in an effort. Do you think that is tight enough? Or is that still too tight?  They are tighter than finger tight. Last thing I want is to have them strip or warp sh*t. But hard times mean I can't just go down to Supercheap and get a torque wrench 🥺
    • Dunno what to tell you, when I look at it on Consult I can see this warmup timing map kicking in around 40C coolant temp and it sticks around for a while:  At part throttle on the normal base timing map it peaks around ~43 degrees of timing or something like that, this warmup timing map drops it to like 12-15 degrees. 
    • I don't think that's what you're seeing. Something else doing that. The only time I've seen it get so retarded is when it's trying to control idle (in which case we're not talking about mapped timing tagets anyway) and when there is an extreme coolant temperature sensor fault. The RB26 ECU is essentially the same as the 20 ECU and I knew that ging inside out. There is no facility for it to retard that heavily on cold start. The OEMs never used to do it back then. I mean, shit, the catalyst is abotu 3 miles down the exhaust anyway. Early light-off was just a twinkle in some EPA arsehole's eye back then, not a regular engine control strategy.
