No those are 370Z "Style" they dont look half as good as the real thing, and the real ones are 19's not 20's :P

These are $1200 with tyres. The rays ones are heaps nicer though. And yes, I'm aware that they're 19s. :P

someone could be interested in these - http://www.ebay.com....c#ht_500wt_1414

Not when the seller has only ever sold 1 item before and the fact that $80 shipping on RAYS wheels is cheap as f*ck... no thanks

You got to start somewhere.

You can't be an ebay seller and just start with 1000 sold items

The main thing is though that shipping for those rims should be much higher than $80 and the picture isn't a real time personal pic it's off Google.. That's why i think it's dodgy.

$80 shipping for wheels interstate is not unheard of. E-Go charge less than $100 for a set of 4 wheels with tires from Syd to Bris. Some sellers also absorb some of the costs of shipping and make it back from the buy price hence giving buyers a perceived cheaper freight cost. Opposed to sellers selling a product for dirt cheap but charging triple the postage. So don't judge a seller based on cheap freight alone.

    • Man that dinner was such a long time ago....2010! I would only replace the rubber coolant lines with silicone these days; cheap, readily available and will last for ever. You will need new hose clamps though eg https://justjap.com/products/cooling-pro-silicone-engine-heater-hose-set-black-nissan-r32-gtr-rb26dett
    • I wouldn't look too hard at what they did with the R32 GTR in endurance racing in Australia... Lots of things weren't actually available from the factory in the way those cars ran them... Japan also followed what Fred Gibson was doing here with some of there endurance cars in Japan... Australia is also the reason for things like the Brembo brakes, and the change in the gearbox... And quite a few other tricks they used to pull. There's a few other SAU peeps still on these forums that will have heard the stories direct from Alan Heaphy, Fred Gibson, and Jim Richards when we were lucky enough to have a great dinner with them
    • For all the talk of "these parts are junk" I generally recommend OEM because it's really not as bad as claimed. I have never seen or heard of a case like the N63 where the oil returns completely clog with coked oil for example in ~10 years or less. Would it be nice if it were a straighter path? I guess, but most modern cars use a scavenge pump instead of a pure gravity return. Also the factory lines that would be relatively simple to convert to braided are generally speaking hardlines from the factory. I would consider braided line to be a regression, not an improvement. It's also been engineered such that all the hardlines have appropriate strain relief where needed. There's absolutely room for improvement, for example the HKS advantage heritage intake piping shows just how much can be done to make the turbos fight each other less in OEM twin turbo configuration and reduce compressor surge but it's rarely a simple/straightforward process. I recommend looking at what the group A/N1 cars did, generally speaking the changes they made were necessary and proven in endurance racing.
    • Yes, multi relays needed, and possibly a diode. I'm not actually going to think about it though.
