I'm a huge Hilux fan! Yours I gonna look great on the brew wheels.

If you have not already seen it I suggest you check out Nigel Petries UTE. Although a bit different then what your doing still an inspirational build.

Thanks man! Yea I've been following the drift ute for a while now. Would be hard to top the quality of his work Can't wait to see videos of it going sideways.

Cheers! I'll put up proper specs once I've got sick pictures of them on the truck

For now, they're 17" Steelies with Negative offset!

Who the hell buys a 17" steely! haha. They weigh half a ton, about 16kg per wheel! Which is about 35-40lb I think? And thats without tyres :S

sounds good.

yea I heard that a 15 or 16x10 rim weighs almost 50lbs!!

my buddy tried to order wheels from diamond for his 240sx but they told him they were too heavy for the suspension lol. you have to lie and say its for truck.

Looks Great! `

Dude this is insane, the BEST truck in NZ hands down.

[Brimmy]

Thanks dude! That's a mint compliment I don't think i'd agree tho, there some pretty amazing stuff out there

[projecthoarder]

Is everyone buying dwindows now? Lol. Nice looking truck man, the steelies are going to look damn good on it.

I like where this is going..A LOT

[Brimmy]

Thanks guys.

So today sucked pretty much the biggest, smelliest balls one could find.

When they sent the order, all the way from the states, looks like they thought it would be a good idea to only label one of the box's 5x114.3. the other 3 boxes they must have just grabbed thinking they are all G. So after stuffing around for many hours today and finally getting the tires on there, found out the other three boxes are 5x120.

. Very, very .

Its a packing error at the USA end by the looks of things. But mainly it means probably a good few weeks delay before these are on the truck.

F###ing yay.

[Manyu]

ouch
sucks dude! was so keen to see them on the ute.

[metalmonkey47]

That blows!! I was excited to see them on there. I LOVE my diamonds.

Heard back from the NZ distributor, and the wheels are out of stock at the manufacturer in the states. So they have apparently been prioritised to be built and to be fast tracked here hopefully by plane. But I'm sure this will take a while as they are quite a big company. Lets hope I see them within the next month...
So updates then! Haha.

[Sausager]

In for this. Such a sweet ute! I'm a born and bred Hutt lad, so will keep my eyes peeled wherever I go.

[Brimmy]

Haha Cheers! If you've got a ute, we have meets every month.

Man that sucks about the wheels!

[Dcups]

Nice build man... BTW the center caps for the Zaubers should look like this. I have the same wheels going on my Surf.

Also for the rear wing/spoiler. If the rear window frame is the same as the 4runner/Surf check out this one I got from ebay Japan.
