[lokchoy]

hey guys, got a 4 stud teg, and was wondering if anyone knows the cost of labour and parts to do a conversion to 5 studs.
any ups about doing the conversion?

y wud u wanna do a 5stud?

[tRipitaka]

bling factor
more choice of rims

[garett]

i disagree that there is more choice of wheels mate

4 x 100 is pretty farken common
if not more common!

[lokchoy]

really?
ive found that there are a better range of wheels in 5 stud, but yeh...
im guessing no one knows any figures? haha

[tRipitaka]

looking at $1200+ for the whole job..
excluding rims and tyres..

[garett]

also it would depend what you wanted when doing it

i have wanted to do it since i got my car but for 2 reasons
- itr wheels are hot as
- and a huge brake upgrade comes with them as the type R rolling gear is awesome.

[garett]

the parts for the itr gear not including wheels i have seen go for around 700+ so add that to whatever wheels you want
pretty expensive. when the wheels are prolly available in 4 x 100 anyway

[lokchoy]

yeh i was looking at itr wheels, both jdm and aus spec, they look smooth :thumbsup:
roughly 700, for 4 wheels doesnt sound too bad

[tRipitaka]

u forgot labour.

[lokchoy]

yeh and that thing..hahaha

[tRipitaka]

and price of rims/tyres ;)

[lokchoy]

GODDAMMIT does it EVER STOP?

[tRipitaka]

then if u buy dodgy drive shafts..
u'll have to get them reconditioned etc.
lol.

rims with tyres u can get for 600ish
stud lug assembly can probly pick up for 900ish
then labour to get it on is about a few hundred

just stay 4 stud. if my turbo teg can take it then im sure yours will. just upgrade ya rotors to slotted.
