Hi all i know wheels have been covered a million times but i did a search and i absoulty love the jap wheels like the xd9's, work emtions and volks ect but i can not justify using like $3000 or so to get them. So i am looking for a nice wheel preferabley in 18's to sitt reasonabley flush with the gaurds. I have seen the drift techs and wheels like that i do like the lenso dr1's with the dish in siliver but have not seen any photos of these on cars and they are pretty hard to track down a supplyer. So can you guys throw me up some wheel susjestions as i am running out of patatance because as soon as i find i wheel i like bam its in the wrong size ie not wide enough or wrong offsett. How do the 19 inch hiro's from tempe tyres sitt on a r32 gtr do they sitt to far in and would i have to roll gaurds to fitt the 9.5 inch wide rims under or go to a 8.5 inch wide and what offsett do they come in i think they come in +25 correct me if i am wrong.

i found the best place for wheels are import spare places in NSW at least you can see them before you buy !

hey all update i have gone for the lenso dr1's and i have to admit they look sweet but do require me to roll the gaurds and removed the inner guard linings to fit them in the 15 offset and the 245/40/18 profile tyres with how low it is sitting right now but i am very happy for $2100 for the 18*9 in the 15 offset with kummo ku31 tyres

    • Hey all, not sure how active SAU is anymore but will ask away anyways. Just wanted to get some experience on the 2008 model GTR CBA model.  I've hit that age in my life (43) where I'm like fk it time to get my dream (midlife crisis) car. Looking at importing one in and seeing if these can be reliable if the main flaws are fixed up. Plan is to keep money aside to do the following straight off the bat to future proof it: * install a stage 1 rebuilt trans with all new bits and pieces.  * install a new Bellhousing from the later model GTRs. Or potentially an upgraded stronger version like MAD or ATR. Besides the above two things and typical maintenance items anything else you'd recommend doing.   Been speaking to a few people and the engine on these are very reliable apparently. But keen on the view of the community here. Hoping to find a nice grade 4.5 with low mileage in Grey. I'd go black but swirls too easy. Look forward to your responses and feedback. Cheers    
    • Do Alan and Keith work on Skylines now? I remember buying stuff from them when I owned my Ralliart Lancer a few moons ago. Definitely genuine guys and be excellent if they dealt with the skyline platform as well.
    • Hey all, I'm Gaston from Sydney's West.  I was a member on here when I was a younger lad and owned a mint R33 GTS-T. Ended up selling it and getting married having kids (yadda yadda) we all know how the story goes. Now I'm back with the intention to get my midlife crisis (dream) car ... a R35 GTR.  You'll see me about asking questions and searching the forums. Good to be back and can't wait to get back an Import again.
    • I have to put something here in order to post the photos. From what I could gather there's more enthusiasm for modified cars now than there has been for years. There were probably more younger people there than older (me included lol) which was a good sign.  It did seem like the record least amount of representation of the 90's era hero cars on display though. Like maybe one or two examples of S-chassis Nissans, and maybe 3 or 4 R-chassis. By comparison there were a lot of Civics from that era but in all there were about 10 - 12 EG/EK Civic Type R.  Euro exotics are always there in large numbers, led by Liberty Walk...... say what you will about kids using markers to scribble on a Ferrari F40, it did seem like a stunt to infuriate Ferrari enthusiasts, or Ferrari itself. I wonder if there's something more to it. Either way LBWK have done some heinous things to a Lamborghini Miura this time. They should stop now.
    • Engines and drivelines are not war stoppers for me mate, busted arse bodies and un-obtainium parts and panels are though Both cheap Brumbies I looked at had trashed tubs and a fair bit of rust
