Hey all,

I wanted to offer my rims to the ACT guys first before putting them up for sale elsewhere.

I have sold the R33 to a mate without the rims/tyres as they are worth too much.

My Volk GT-C Face 2 rims in 18 * 8 fronts and 18 * 9 rears with near new Federal RS-R tyres (235s on front, 265s on rear) are one of the best looking rims I've seen. They fit the R33 GTS-T superbly and were legally engineered for use on my R33. They went through Dickson twice without trouble.

I will get the offsets for you all tomorrow but for now I have just photos:

I'm chasing $3500 for all 4 with the RS-R tyres (which are $1700 on their own). This will include the hubcentric rings, carbon volk center caps and volk nuts with volk lock nuts.

Cheers

Sam

I've wanted these wheels ever since i 1st saw them on the car, years ago. they are easily one of the best rims i've ever seen on an R33! the photos dont them justice. you gotta see these in the flesh...

Good luck with the sale....

They're 17x9" I believe. Currently got a set of 235/17/45 (I think that's the measurements) Maxxis tyres. Mostly legal (bar some lame camber wear on the rears)...plenty of tread depth.

haha I don't even know if I should be considering it, I already owe him $180 rofl

let me know. Couldnt really care about the tyres, as my current set are 235/45's and I'd just swap them over. Would be interested to know what their offset is, so I can figure out if they won't look as fail as my front rims do at the moment.

Damned if I know, I could name a figure but it's probably wrong. What size are they anyway, not sure on my 33 rims sizes, I do know though they look halfway decent on a 32 though.

Looks more than halfway decent :D

    • Yeah, you are right. It seems easier and more reasonable to boost the engine. And as you said the blocks are very similar but the cylinder bores are different.
    • Sound logic, but in actuality way more illegal than just having the wrong pipe. Normally, doing something like that would be forgery. Meaning you may have certain documentation for vehicle parts, but the actual parts are different ones and you just assign them the numbers and badging from the documents. But nevermind that. Nonetheless, I AM curious if this pipe was ever made by any official manufacturer this way, because I honestly am not familiar with this pipe layout and shape. As I will be putting on the HKS Silent Hi Power once my exhaust gaskets arrive, as long as it sounds right I will just roll with this front pipe. I can always order the actual Mines part if I run into legal issues. It would be an unnecessary expense as there is lots of other problems I have on this car as of now.
    • So, weld a plate with the Mines logo laser cut into it, onto it. Instant Mines pipes, whether they were or weren't originally.
    • I don't know if the blocks are "the same". They will be very very similar. Obviously, either the bore or the stroke is going to be bigger on the 20. If the bore is bigger, then the 18 head is unlikely to fit properly. If the bore is the same, then you can almost certainly fit the CA18 head, but there migth be a few fun things you have to do to make water galleries (or other things) line up properly. Or... it could just be real easy. Is it worth the effort? Almost certainly not. You can make nearly as much power on a 2 valv ehead as you can on a 4 valve. There's not any "magic" in a 4 valve head.
    • Yes, me too!!!!  I need to find a something that has all the abbreviations for what these cars have LOL
