Impul Ns-gt 18' Light Weight Wheels (melbourne)

[Kozeyekan]

Team IMPUL NS-GT 18' lightweight racing wheels. $1200 ONO

2 air valves on each wheel, as per used in JGTC (SuperGT).

18x9 +38 all round.

FAQ:

Q: Do they come with tyres?

A: Nope, they're bare naked.

Q: Will they fir a GTR?

A: The offset means they'll sit inside the flared guards. They'll fit, but I wouldn't recommend it, as it'll look odd having the guards about 16mm wider than the tyres.

Q: What happened to the decals on one of the rims?

A: Did you know that an industrial high pressure cleaner is brilliant at cleaning rims? I did. Did you know it's powerful enough to sheer off the decals? I didn't. Not my brightest moment. Only one decal is missing. It may be possible to replace, but am not sure.

Q: Will they fit on my car?

A: They should suit 200sx, skyline gtst/gtt, and FDs. If you're unsure, look at your tyre placard and see if the offset matches.

Q: One looks pretty banged up.

A: The ones in the front are the worst ones. The back ones are pretty clean. I'd rather you see the condition before coming out and taking a look.

Q: How many extra KW are these worth?

A: Well, if I had to put a figure on it, somewhere between zero and a million.

Q: Will you trade for a playstation of dubious ownership and a subway card with almost all the stamps on it?

A: While I'm sure these are incredibly valuable items, no, I'm not after trades.

Q: They are certainly a sweet set of rims. Why are you selling them?

A: Usual story. Bought them, bought a house, had a baby, and now have no time for Mistress Skyline.

Q: I'll give you $20.

A: Interesting offer, let me get back to you as soon as I finish my "Will rent out posterior for pocket change" sign.

Q: Where are you?

A: Mitcham, Melbourne, Victoria. Between Box Hill and Ringwood, just off the freeway. Prefer pickup.

Q: Will you post them?

A: I'd rather not, but if you're willing to organise the freight, I'll do my bit from my end.

Q: Do you take cards?

A: Cold hard cash is preferred. Bank deposit if necessary.

Q: Do you ship overseas?

A: No. I don't have any dead millionaire relatives, or a prize in the Equatorial Guiniea powerball either.

Q: Can you drop them off to me in a remote oil platform in the middle of Bass Straight?

A: Unlikely. If you're nearby, maybe I can work something out, I may even be able to meet you half way if really necessary, but would prefer to sell from home. Wifey is hard to convince when I skip out on putting the little one to bed, as it is a bit of a task at the moment.

Q: Are they legit?

A: Purchased right here on this very forum from an SAU member who imported them themselves. Yes, they are the real deal.

Any queries, feel free to message me here.

Just in case anyone is curious, One valve is regular, the other has a 90 degree bend in it, so you can inflate from 2 different angles. That's right, no faffing about with the air pump, just grip it, tip it and blip it.

That may not make much sense, but you just inflate like normal. You just have more options now. Isn't technology grand?

Can I tip it blip it then grip it or will that divide by 0?

Tipping, blipping and gripping will result in a wayward airhose spraying everyone in the vicinity with a jet of air that smells faintly like a tin that has had urine kept in it for three summers. I wouldn't recommend it, unless you are a seriously advanced tyre inflation technician, and even then, only under strict supervision of a member of the tyre pressure advisory council.

What exactly did these fit on? I have 18x9 +38 rears and I put them on my front to test and it didn't clear the inner uprights (with a tyre on the rim).

This is on the front of a R34 GTT.

Otherwise would probably buy these asap cause light weight pretend racer over here.

Evo? Maybe Supra? Late model WRX?

Previous owner had them on an R34 GTT, I had them on an R32 GTS4.

Ahhhh. Looks a little like that guy was running thinner tyres than me. May get away with a spacer if there's any other 34 GTT'ers out there reading

Any idea on what they actually weigh?

[Kozeyekan]

I'll find out. I actually tried to look it up online, but it's hard to find manufacturers specs for wheels in general.

I'll put them on the scale tomorrow night. I don't have anything more accurate than a bathroom scale though, and my wife swears it adds 15kg, so the wheels may actually weigh less than nothing by that logic.

I'll let you know what they weigh in at. Being 18x9, I imagine they'd be heavier than stock 17x7.5, as there's a lot more metal there, even if made of lighter weight materials, though I haven't been able to get a lock on what the stockies weigh either.

[Kozeyekan]

10.5kg on the bathroom scale.
