Hi All,

Trying to find out if anyone out there has a pair of 18 x 8.0 volk f-zero's floating around anywhere and would be willing to sell them. I dont need any rubber just the rim and im after a set to fit r32 gts-t (offset 114.3 i believe)

If anyone can help in any way it would be greatly appreciated.

Cheers

Laine

Anyone able to help?

Laine,

114.3 is the PCD of the wheel ( the space between the holes that fit onto the wheel hub. There are 5 such holes so it's a 5 x 114.3 PCD. Your offset will be more along the lines of a +25 to +40 or something like that. If you have the old ( broken) rims it will tell you if you look on the inside of the rim.

Maybe also try posting a photo in case some people don't know what these look like? I have a fair idea ( are they the sort of 5 spoked, star pattern? - if so, nice looking rim, usually see em more on Supras than on Skylines, hence you'll be right up against it trying to find someone who has these wheels in this size with the right offset in good condition who wants to sell them and all planets are in alignment ( etc etc)

You may want to think about getting another pair that look somewhere similar, without being these. I'd reckon that if someone knows you need this type of wheel, and given how rare they are, they'll be able to ask 'sky is the limit' ( i.e $1000 for the pair no tyres).

Assume that these are for the front? You have 18 x 9J on the back?

cheers,

Whoops yeh i c what you mean i sorta rushed those numbers i put up without thinking. Ill get the proper offset asap and ill put a couple of pics up too.

I agree i think im gonna be strugglng to find a set to replace them but i can only but try. I do have the 18x9J ones for the rear and the ones im after are for the front.

Cheers

    • Coming home late at night and driving past the police is the only reason i need one haha And yeh, definitley needs a switch to quickly enable it, dont have time to be getting my phone, opening an app, waiting for it to update etc before being able to make the change
    • Because it is financially convenient for them lol. Why wouldn't they want to give you the lowest possible valuation for your car?
    • Yep. @Duncan also shannons they will rip you dry and will be probably limited on how much you can drive. Also keep in mind that you always have to have it garaged with Shannons, with enthusiasts as per their PDS you can have it 2 times per week on the driveway for example. 
    • I had a generic 4" Varex rear box on my old V8, worked a treat for sneaking home late at night, it was as quite as stock when closed The car was "fairly" loud when open as it consisted of 1" 7/8 headers to 3" catted Y pipe, to 4" single, it did have a resonator in the mid pipe and only the Varex out the back I also hard wired in a Varex dash mount switch, as the key fob thing is a pain to use when driving I wouldn't recommend giving the beans when it is closed though as it creates a large restriction in the exhaust  It also can in very handy when pulled over for "random" breath tests or just cruising past the constabulary   
    • Here is the before and after of the scraping/sanding of the IC pads on the tachometer board for the fix mentioned in this thread. And yes it worked fine after. Just a note if you change any components on the board the tach calibration can be wrong showing the wrong idle etc...only problem is once it is installed back in the cluster you can't get to it to adjust...ouch! My fix was to cut out the calibration pot (the blue one) from the board and run it with two wires to the fuse panel under the dash where I could adjust the idle calibration once everything was installed. And yes I soldered everything up again including the half soldered components either side of the IC in my photos
