4 x Volk Racing rims with all the plates and center caps, 17 x 9 with 4 x Dunlop Formula R DO1J 265/40R 17 and 2 x Kumho V70A 235/40R 17.

Still one or two track days left in the tyres, they have been stored indoors and had some grip put on them prior to my last outing, only used on the car at track days.

The offset is god knows, they fit under my GTS-T with rolled guards and some camber, you need at least -2 deg on the back and front to get inside the guards of a R33 GTS-T.

Will swap for MINT 17 x 8 Nissan wheels i.e 350Z or simular, maybe even R32 GTR rims (Im trying to keep it looking standardish)

Or $650

Pick up and/or inspect in Sydney.

God said "its about 100mm from the face that bolts to the disc hat to the outside lip", he would have been more helpful but said I've been a "bad boy" and that's all the info he will give me.

They are 2 piece rims.

I got the wheels from Peter at ADVAN performance a couple of years ago, they were on his GRACER car at Superlap 2009.

Hope that helps.

rim width is 253, distance from hub face to inside lip is 148.

So, 1/2 rim width of 126.5 - 148 = +21.5offset

I used Google for the calcs, they may not be right, if you like them try them on.

    • Duh... to answer my own silly question, it's actually described in the FSM... ...400 pages away at the end of the manual, for RB25DE/DET signal descriptions, it cites the TPSwitch signal action, is dependent on the TPSensor value ~ this tends to infer the builtin POT voltage signal is the primary, and the switches are fallback/secondary should the POT fail/TPSensor signal lost (and switch alone with no TPSensor signal allows for base idle speed setting).... makes sense... they (TPS units) used to fail/wear the POT with time, they're not exactly built to last ~ having the switch as a redundancy gets around this...(or, it's less likely both signals would be lost as they're on different power rails)... and of course wrt RB26DETT, you have to electrically disconnect the IACV solenoid from the harness, to defeat idle air control...  
    • Dose is unaware just how much fun 145-150kw would be in a 2.5L NC MX5. It would be one of the most fun things to drive to ever grace SAU.
    • Same thought crossed my mind ~ depends on how one connotes 'stalling'...ie; gets a rough/stumbling idle as it get warm until it stalls... or... idles ok and simply falls-over when it gets to temp... ...you can test the whole circuit with a couple of resistors ...unplug coolant temp sensor, bridge terminals with a 2K7 resistor (ECU will do cold start), or with engine warm bridge with a 330R resistor (ECU will consider engine to be at normal operating temp)...it's a quick way to check wiring integrity/ECU response when you don't have a multimeter handy ...
    • They also make them with the motor mounted on the side 
    • Just be warned that that turbo will not be a direct re-fit to the car. The exhaust housing is, of course, in the same place. It has to be - it's bolted to the exhaust manifold. So the dump will fit up. But the centre housing is not as long, so the comp housing will move backwards. This will affect both the turbo inlet and the outlet. There is fab work that needs to be done. Yes. it has one, it should have one. Paper gasket.
