I'm specifically looking for hub-centric spacers. A little different from your regular spacers. I can't find them for less that $200 for all four so far.

WAAAIITTT.. James, please give me a chance to help you out... $200.00 did they at least include a good tube of lube for that raping ?? I'm getting ready to order our set (for the shop) of hub centering rings. They should not be more than $15 (for metal ones) and about $5-7 dollars for plastic (each). Unless the ones you were looking at were made of some exotic metal...that is way too much.. send me the info (brand) on your rims... you're still running stock s-14 hubs (5 lug or 4 lug) right?? worst case would be to get a measurement of the ID (inside diameter) of the hub hole on the rim. Were these stock 350Z rims? Sorry can't remember all the details when you got them. Hopefully I can help ya out....

Is that $15 for the set of four? My car is an SE with the stock 5 lug, and the wheels are AZA and they were originally ordered for Brandon's 350Z. I don't know if he needed hubcentric spacers or not. The rims are the ones I pictured above

Don't worry, I'm not the kind of guy who pays full price for stuff. The few times I have I've felt violated.

today we changed the thermostat, and the got a new radiator cap and it still overheated so now it sits in the garage taken apart again, we are replacing the water pump now

The inner diameter on those wheels should be 73mm. I'd have to go look again.

Hey Maxima,Here is a website that you can order hub centering rings from. I would get the aluminum ones if they are available (more durable and hold up to heat transfer better - plastic ones tend to get brittle and crack after they got hot a few times). http://www.1010tires.com/hubrings.asp

Post by **gnvarnadore** » Thu Mar 22, 2007 11:21 am

Pat thats cool man i'll be up there on sat. to pick them up.

Post by **maxima278** » Thu Mar 22, 2007 12:49 pm

What do I do if I want to space the wheels out a little? Do I use hubcentric spacers AND regular spacers or do I need some sort of combination? Also, what is the measurement on the hub of a 240? (inside diameter). Brandon said the outer is 73 I believe...

Post by **GoinTopless240** » Thu Mar 22, 2007 1:07 pm

I don't have my software here at the house, but I will check tomorrow at work.. hey if you have a chance give me a call.. I want to figure out where to meet up on Sunday..

Post by **maxima278** » Thu Mar 22, 2007 1:18 pm

ok, I'll call you, just give me a chance to let my wife get home from class and take over kid duty. I've got 2 down for the night, and one more still up.

Post by **Redemption1978** » Thu Mar 22, 2007 3:23 pm

Rawr! I'm on my way to GA tomorrow after work. I'll give you a call James.

Post by **gnvarnadore** » Fri Mar 23, 2007 9:54 am

ok guys i have a question to ask all of you and i want honest answers. after i get my engine swap and convert it to a 5 speed i want to get a body kit so here my question.

im looking at a few body kits and i want to know what you guys think. should i go with the chargespeed s13 to s15 widebody kit, the origin labs agressive kit and get wide finders, or the chargespeed s13 widebody kit?

Post by **maxima278** » Fri Mar 23, 2007 11:20 am

So pat, what wheels did you end up getting?

Post by **Black on Gold** » Fri Mar 23, 2007 12:23 pm

Well i should be hearing from the guy today or something about picking them up tomorrow after i meet up with Gregg. Which we are still on for right? I might end up getting a free pair of S13 seats in the deal. Then i can reupholster the seats in the future or sometime soon.

Also found out why my car is getting about 5mpg. In the hatch where the Fuel Filter goes into the Gas Tank, the cover (can someone tell me what the name is) is leaking ALLLLLL over the place and has a crack in it. I might end up taking that off of my friends parts car on sunday, so i got a full weekend ahead of me.

LEEEEEAKKKK!!!!

Post by **maxima278** » Fri Mar 23, 2007 2:33 pm

eeeeewwwwww. that sucks man.

Post by **gnvarnadore** » Fri Mar 23, 2007 2:44 pm

yeah man we are still on for tomorrow, i'll be there more than likely around 1:30

Post by **Black on Gold** » Fri Mar 23, 2007 3:41 pm

Yup, got a busy weekend ahead of me. Hopefully i can get this off of my friend where i can get it dirt cheap. I'll be taking care of that on Sunday i suppose. It sucks but hey, atleast its not something outrageously expensive that i have to replace.

Post by **Black on Gold** » Fri Mar 23, 2007 6:25 pm

Gregg!! please read your email before leaving

Post by **scs13** » Fri Mar 23, 2007 7:24 pm

Post by **gnvarnadore** » Sat Mar 24, 2007 4:59 am

Pat check your email and give me a call, my number is in the email. i'll be leaving here soon to head up there.

Post by **jkerr240** » Sat Mar 24, 2007 7:21 am

Post by **Black on Gold** » Sat Mar 24, 2007 12:10 pm

There might be a few but they dont post very often. Most of us are from Rock Hill, Columbia or Greenville Areas. Except James, he's on the other side of the globe

Guys,Im trying to get rid of some S13 stuff around here. I also have the CF hood thats on the car that i need to get rid of. Its not in the best of shape but i want to let it go cheap so if someone is intrested, shoot me an email. Also got Left and Right Tail lights for the Hatchback and here is a link to another thread

zerothread?id=236441

Post by **gnvarnadore** » Sat Mar 24, 2007 3:10 pm

ohh now you wanna sell the cf hood after i asked you about it today

Post by **GoinTopless240** » Sat Mar 24, 2007 3:42 pm

don't forget the gasket for that cover as well. I believe it is a dealer only item. You might find a good import parts store, but I had no luck....so the dealer raped me for the part. Necessary part to keep system sealed and at proper pressure. That cover looks nasty.... hope the inside of the tank looks better than that.....while you have it out you should replace the fuel pump filter sock... AutoZone does carry that for about $10 and theirs is larger than the one most have... just a thought

Post by **GoinTopless240** » Sat Mar 24, 2007 3:50 pm

personally I think the s13 to s15 conversion just doesn't flow right. The body lines of the s15 front end just doesn't flow well with the s13 rear end.... of course I've only seen it on a convertible.. I do like the Origin Kits.. and I like the widebody kit for the s13 from chargespeed.. I looked at that one myself... what color are you looking at for the finished product....

Here is a pic of the s13 to s15 verthttp://gointopless240.zoints.c...57402

Now I think this looks good..[IMG][/IMG]
