For the hub cap you could try this site which I think cobers all of australia www.partslocator.com.au if the things you want are in melb / syd then get your mates to chase it up, there may be something in your state too though!

Regarding the 17-18 inch wheels, at least one of the guys on here has done this [17's]. Try doing a search on it. Or go to MRTRXs profile and search his posts...you are bound to find info on it...

I've got a spare one off a Ti if u want it.  ;) They fit fine as Ti sportwagons used the same wheels as TRXs except with "NISSAN" in the place that "TR.X" is on a TRX hubcap.

If you're interested just IM me.

I hav ehad my trx for 4-5 years. I have lost 4 since. They are a pain in the arse. It seems to be a trait with these mag because nearly every trx I see has at least one missing. Maybe it is other trx owners swiping them .I dunno. You can purhcase replacements from the Nissan Spare Parts guys but they are $37 a hit. Bloody expensive. Even worse. They are plastic and dont quite fit right. I have a white TRX and am thinking of going for some new mags. Probably white 16s. Does anyone know if someone has tried fitting the old gts skyline rims to a trx. I think that would look pretty Smick

i wanted to do that [white r31gts wheels on my white trx] but couldnt find a set ~ i believe they are the same PCD - 114.3 but not sure if they might be a 5 stud wheel. You can always swap the wheel hub over to suit though if u really want to.

I guess I was lucky with the hub caps, for 5 years i had the car, they stayed on, well until I changed the wheels so probably 4 years with the hub caps still on!

you will find that the r31 skyline has the same 4 x 114.3 stud pattern. i also wanted these mags, but as i was discussing with whizzin on the irc channel, finding a set would be very hard, and then when you do find a set, i think they would be way out of the average punters price range for what they are.
