The fronts in this pic are pre-refurb. Just a coat of rattlecan black. Looks tonnes better now with the pro sandblast and powdercoat.

Plenty of pics in my on-line album.

Will add some current ones soon.

History:

Originally swapped an HR30 5 speed gearbox from an L20et setup I bought 3 years ago, for these 16x7 rims

They were painted silver with a polished lip, needed some serious TLC

I got them sandblasted by a pro, and then powdercoated high-gloss black by an engineering company.

Total cost was $320 ($80 per rim) They are balanced well, weights on inner side

For a bit of fruit, I added the yellow edging on the outer lip. (easily removed, its stick-on) I planned to get the lip re-polished but havent gotten around to it... ever. As for the brand I cant remember, the sticker was faded but they were definitly from Japan, brand name started with 'A'

Reason for selling:

To fund my build-up/entry to be ready for SkyNats.

I do have a set of mint R30 Ti 15x6's that I will be useing instead, tyres are cheaper and the Ti rims are f'ing light for what they are.

The tyres on the 16's will need replacing soon. the fronts are 225/50/R16, dunlop bathurst. quite worn. not legal.

the rears are bridgestone turanza 225/55/R16, and would be just on legal in my eyes. Quite a good tread too, I have hardly ever broken traction with them , simply cos I cant! Well with 53kW at the rears what do you expect.

Price:

As-is Im looking for $400 or best offer. Shipping extra.

I can arrange delivery to Sydney and Melbourne quite easily.

Includes 3 x Center caps, the 4th one never owned. Could replace the lot with a set from local wheel mart.

Contact details,

if you want pics, send a request to [email protected]

(my spam email address...)

But there are plenty on the album and I will be getting some recent ones this week.

PM's will be responded to.

If you have my nember then good for you! Give me an sms. Dont pickup much as Im mega busy.

  • 5 months later...

Jus t so I stop getting emails about these rims

They have been sold.

Like months ago.

no idea what the offset was, and they needed 10mm spacers on the front so the 225 wide tread would not rub the spring seat.

    • 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
