f**k, this shit again, really?

ok let me ask you this...did all the r32 gtr's from 89-94 and the v-specs from 94-96 have the engravings around the center caps? did any of them have holes drilled around the center caps? Im just saying...ive got the rare special edition Altia Falken GTR wheels that were only produced for the Falken GTR team. Ultra Rare bro.

Cast engravings and part numbers on all of course, yes. Drilled around the center caps no, that would mean not genuine Nissan. Regular GTRs 89-94 had the Nissan casting and Vspecs+N1s - 91-93, Vspec II - 94 had Nissan casting as well as BBS

The Altia/Falken R32 ran a 2 or 3 piece wheel, the R33 and R34 Altia cars had monoblock, same construction to what you have.

What you have is just an off the shelf wheel they sold way back in the 90s. Still kinda rare, I've never seen them.

This would be about the time I'd be looking to weigh one, and finding the weight of an OEM R32 GTR wheel, and seeing how much weight the teensy weensy holes have saved. Are R32 GTR wheels forged and scalloped on the rear of the spokes? Cos if they are I can't see the "Altia" ones weighing much less at all.

LOL they have gone from' N1 wheels with drill holes with no part numbers' to 'Falken GTR team ultra rare bros' all in one thread.

In b4, they are landing wheels for space shuttle atlantis

Aaaaaactually...space shuttles run 21x16s, and each tyre is inflated to 340psi, with a rating to 415kph max speed.

Sorry, I just hate misinformation... :google:

dude its pretty obvious that Altia N1 racing wheels made the wheels. They are not a genuine nissan part. N1 is part of the companies name......not some special edition N1 skyline model lol. My god. You just have a Altia N1 racing wheel that are probably slightly better than the stock nissan. But no one cares because its 16x8. It's really nothing special at all. It's just an off the shelf option. Who buys aftermarket wheels that are the same as the damn stock ones? No one. Rarity is not always a good thing. They are rare because stupid. There is also rare because ugly. Like most of the veilside catalogue lol. How in the hell you have convinced yourself that you have some special nissan few hundred made lightweight r32 N1 wheel is beyond me. This is why humans fail, we are gullible......quit trying so hard and go buy some 17 or 18's that fit better than those sunken battle ship junkers.

Sorry brah, my tyre fitter Mohammed at fullysicktyres said I can get Space shuttle reps in original 18 inch size, in chrome of course. He works in a tyre shop so he must know everything about wheels and tyres.

Perhaps. Or some old arse wheels from the 70's/80's.

I've seen those Magnesium wheels on YAJ but obviously not in those sizes (smaller 17" for Silvias).

Yeah i have not seen another set floating around.

Nor have i seen another set of my wheels in this sizing either... lol

    • It might be fine. I was just saying that I wouldn't trust it without testing it.
    • Traction wasn't bad, l couldn't give it everything off the line but was able to go WOT about half a second after rolling - good for NZ drag strips.   Like one run I did a 1.96 60ft and pretty sure I was on for a 12.4 but lifted early as I was on a 12.5 dial in, and still won haha 
    • Nice one! I was going to take mine down to SMSP drags one Weds night. I'd love to compare it with my GTR which did a 12.3. The bum-dyno in the 335i says its quicker.   How was the traction @Lithium?
    • AFAIK I've seen other people recommend using the back of the balance tube as well. Andre Simon from HPA at least. I can't imagine it being that far off from ideal even if it was only used to drive a boost gauge from the factory.
    • Hi All, New member here, I've joined to help my son with an issue that is truly doing our heads in. I'll start with a bit of an overview. Chris carried out some modifications to the engine to try and extract just a little extra power out of the motor and make it a bit more efficient. Previous to this work, the car already had an upgraded exhaust, increased boost up to 14psi, modified standard turbo to metal impellers and slightly oversized, upgraded fuel pump, been dyno-tuned at JEM, and some other bits n bobs like coil packs etc. Before the current mods it was making 236rwkw at 14psi but after the new mods it now makes 209rwkw at 14psi. The work he carried out is as follows, timing belt service, water pump replacement, return to sump radium catch can, had oem head rebuilt and machined 0.2mm, fitted Athena cut ring head gasket 1.2mm thick, arp 2000 head studs, added rear prp head drain, added an external wastegate 40mm turbosmart welded off the stock manifold and plumbed back into a 3in dump. The car has been on the dyno and apparently the ignition is working, fuel flow and fuel pressure is fine, injectors are fine, spark plugs are working fine, Maf is working, O2 sensor is working, TPs sensor is working, VCT is working, CAS is working, boost leak test showed no boost leaks, compression test first crank cold 135psi and got to 150psi across all cylinders once cranking, timing is confirmed at tdc with a dial gauge and the cam dots line up, no blockages in intercoolerm throttle body or pre-turbo intake, no blockages in exhaust, cat conveter or down pipe, turbo looks fine and spins and wastegate looks fine and is new. Soz for all the detail but after all this, it has been in 3 times for dyno and each time comes back stating it's not going to make power. After the first (or second, can't remember now) trip to dyno we did find the timing out by one tooth and this improved things, but it is still well down. Does anyone have any ideas?  Any replies much appreciated as we're just not sure of which direction to take this. Regards Rob (Chris's Dad).
