Hi folks,

I'm wanting a set of wheels that look better than stock R33 GTR wheels which I currently have.

Budget is up to $1.5k give or take, would pay bit extra should it come with tyres - I know it isn't much but I'm up for a challenge in finding something unique and 'left field' rather than going the usual Volk TE37/Work Meisters & Emotions, etc route.

I'm wanting at least 18x10 +20 or thereabouts, (If you do happen to have Rays Volk TE37 Fortessr in 19s which I once had a set that you're keen on selling, I may be keen - only sort of TE37 I would consider) however if you do have very tough 17s or 19s I might give it a shot.

However, it MUST clear factory Brembos without spacers. Prefer for the wheels NOT to be black or dark coloured that may blend in Midnight Purple GTR.

I'm located at Melbourne.

Hope you've got what I may be looking for.

Thanks in advance.

Grant

p.s. I don't want to hear you saying 'why not get Rota/Lenso/Vaarosten's?' basically, if I wanted these 'wheels' I could of have bought them already without writing this thread.

I have a set of wheels, 18x10 +18 im after 1k. They are currently apart to have the centers powercoated but I have since moved on and sold the car. I will PM you some pictures later on. Price is for wheels not powercoated and with no tyres.

      Nismo coppermix twinplate clutch

      By joshuaho96 · Posted

      From the pictures I have when doing the job the flywheel is the same diameter, I don't think they're playing weird tricks like putting weights at the outer diameter to increase flywheel inertia or anything like that. The OEM flywheel is definitely heavier, but it's not a huge difference. Quoted weight savings of the clutch is 2 kg so I can't imagine the flywheel being lighter than ~7 kg. Kind of regret not weighing it before the clutch went into the car but as far as driveability goes I have no complaints.

      R32 update from 1990's spec.

      HKS trigger kit should be very easy to integrate with a Link. It's a 36-2 crank trigger. Hard part is finding the motivation to take off the timing belt and everything on the front of the engine to install it. You also need to cut out a hole in the oil pump housing so the sensor can read the trigger wheel. Changing out the cam sensor for a 24 tooth setup is probably good enough but as others have mentioned depending on what underlying assumptions are changed it becomes more of a problem. Reading the crank state off of the cam is an abstraction that works in the general case, but if you have an edge case it makes less and less sense. There is a GTX2860 gen 2 that can take a compact 5 bolt housing so it's direct bolt on but I'm not 100% sure of what's involved. Peak compressor efficiency drops off a bit on these turbos vs -5s, 77% vs 73% but you get way, way wider region of operation. The -5s have a really strange surge line in their compressor map that is all over the place. If you think the hot side on the -5s aren't open enough you can try the Tomei T550B turbos which a local tuner seems to be happy with:
