have you googled this? There is plenty on the web about fakes and reals. Ash's are real; there are plenty of TE37s that do not have the "made in japan" and "rays engineering" marked in the front. Tooling changes etc.

Your mates rims probably didn't have them either, and they didn't notice until they were repainted and SHINY smile.gif

There was a thread on SAU recently

To add to this... I can confirm (via the Rays website - cbf'd searching for the news bulletin but you can if you want) that in June 2010 Rays started to emboss their markings on the lips to all the TE37 range. This was to counter the inferior fakes/styles/replicas etc. Prior to this, the embossed branding only came in 19" rims for the original TE37's. As such, any rims produced after June 2010 will have the embossing around the lips. Still, either way the fact is if you flip the rims around and check the hub face, you'll be able to confirm 100% whether they are genuine or not.

Cheers,

Andy

Do you have centre caps for theses?

Lots of dreamers sending PM's about the TE37s

So make it nice and easy - the TE37 pricing is not negotiable. Do not PM me asking for the "lowest price", as the "lowest price" is as advertised.

Hi Ash,

Possibly interested in Zeit wheels and R32 Gtr front lip. (pending me buying another 32).

Could i ask for some possibly standing up shots of the wheels to show the dish from side on, and did you happen to have any pics of the wheels ever fitted on a car??

Just for reference.

Thanks mate.

Cheers.

P.s. saw your car on the Motive DVD my mate had from the time attack. car looked beaut, sounded magnificent!! dope ride!

    • My hold point for future mods is that I want a OEM detachable hard top first, but, finding one is a pain, MX5 Mania are looking for one for me, but, as hens teeth are more common, finding one in Australia is proving problematic  I can get a OEM one from overseas, hell, you can still get new ones in 'Merica, but, shipping is a absolute killer and I cannot justify the cost, or the risk of it being damaged during transport As for the aftermarket hardtops, whilst they do the job of being a hard top, and are fine for a track car, they don't seal well (read: leak like a sieve in the rain), and you need a plastic/poly rear window, plus they are a bolt in option only and not made to be easily removed I liked how the hard top on my NB could be fitted, and removed, by myself, in less than 5 minutes I know it sounds bad, but I'm waiting for someone to write off a car with one so I can swoop in on their pain, it will go to a good home though, so my guilt of this is tempered
    • I’ve got one on mine and it’s fine, 
    • No, you don't want to plug the vacuum line, as that will turn that side of the booster into an air spring and probably make it feel worse. I'm not saying that the GTR master itself doesn't need a booster. I haven't paid attention to the GTR one to know what size it is cf the non-GTR ones. But when you think about it - they have to do the same job, which is to move a little slave piston a few mm to do what it is supposed to do, and that final action is the same on all the cars. So, it is very unlikely that the GTR MC is any different than the others, because it has the same pedal stroke and the same output requirement. The booster just makes it feel easier. I'd suggest you probably have an actual hydraulic problem. It's totally common on these old shitboxes.
    • Ye, in terms of bolting up the "Conversion" from a GT to a GTT is effectively "Use GTT parts for everything" Except the subframe itself, because you won't want a HICAS/4WS subframe. Remember your ABS system will be different too, thanks to GT being the S15 3 sensor system, instead of the R34 4 sensor system for wheel speed. I do not know how people get this to work given R34 diffs do not have a provision for an ABS sensor (they are on the tone wheels of the axles). I assume***** people use S15 gear/R34NA forever when they realize this - Or they convert it to a rear diff/axles that are R33 style which I presume has the singular speed sensor on the diff itself, but then you have to wire it all in and...and... and...
