  1. Cheers man.
    Atm I'm running stock wheels and have a ridiculous 5cm of guard gap each corner, those spec wheels should fit but just not sure about suspension clearances.


    So got the 18x9.5 te37 fitted to my gtr. Didn't even need spacers at the end of the day, rims sat perfect just inside guards and filled it in nice. How it goes on a gtst not sure though. Have the 25mm spacers for sale if needed anyway, t6061 billet aluminium 5x114.3- 5x114.3 stud pattern.

  2. Smidy if you end up fitting these wheels without spacers, can you report back whether they foul the struts or scrub. Would be much appreciated and helpful for others.


    No prob man will get the tyre fitters to let me know as they will be doing it as need a balance and wheel alignment when done to. Only thing is mine being a gtr and yours a gts-t you said there maybe a difference in guard dimensions and wheel allowance but will let you know anyway.
  3. So after speaking to a knowledged skyline owner himself he said go 25mm spacer minimum if you want to fill the guards out nicely and should have no troubles with rim or tyre rubbing on strut on inside or tyres rubbing on guard. Sounds like the go, opinions? As I particularly wanted these rims and they came at a very reasonable price I just have to live with the spacer idea.

  4. The rims are second hand and that's the offset they are, didn't think it would be too much of a drama. So buying spacers with the holes to fit over studs then the additional bolts attached to spacer would be the better option?

  5. Thanks for replies! So got the rims, black te37sl 18x9.5 +30 they are....stoked!! Still need a spacer for strut clearance ? And if so looking at the eBay alloy aluminium 10mm universal for all 4 or just for rear? Are they ok quality wise ?

  6. Hi all can anyone with experience tell me if 18x10 +30 te37sl will fit straight on to 95' series 1 33gtr vspec. I know I will have to roll rear guards as fronts already done factory I assume, but nothing else major needed to just fit and drive away. Brakes are factory brembo still.

     

    TIA

  7. Cheers guys its only a couple small marks so not too stressed, i think i will run with the dark purple over the red metallic addition as that seems more logical and due to it being a 95 and one of the first of the series i figure the dark purple would represent midnight purple and maybe they experimented a little further with colour in the later models......I hope, if there is any logic behind that lol Thanks again.

  8. Hi guys and gals,

     

    Was  going to get some touch up paint for my 33 gtr around brisy after a few phonecalls someone pointed out Supercheap. I was a bit sceptical at first but they seem to be able to provide it but the paint codes they have represent 2 different midnight purples but the same code. they are both LP2 but one has a dark purple metallic with small amount red metallic and other is dark purple metallic. I would have thought the 2nd is the correct choice but didnt want to be wrong. Its only for a few scuff marks around the base of my front bar but dont want it to be different obviously. Any experts know which is which. It is for 33 GTR V-spec 95'. Thanks

  9. Hey m8 I use Richard from Allstar tuning in brendale he operates out of his place near beerwah but has workshop at brendale. Nice honest guy and knows his shit for all types of cars/engines.

  10. So this is the best team qld have ever produced? And nsw beat them! I like the fact qld supporters focus on the last 8 years only and never before then, never back when qld and nsw played against each other since 1908. Never back when nsw beat qld 19 years in a row in the 60's, yes it wasn't called "state of origin" but it was qld verse nsw. Got give credit for the teams back then when it was brutal and not a penalty riden whinging comp from both sides like they play on the ref these days. And also Shayne Hayne should never ref a game of league ever again!

    The qld supporters that give shit about nsw playin at their home ground badly and only just winning, game one was on your turf and u lost so says abit about how qld played on their home turf. At least we won!!

    Can't wait for game 3 to make it a white wash guna be tough but will be good to see it happen!
