Hey guys.

just read this massive post on offsets but still am unsure

Sorry, i know its been said alot but need an answer pretty quick and sure one of you people will be able to help me out pretty easy :D

Bout to buy some 17x7 17x8 wheels for my R32 GTST

But the offset is +43 at the front and +32 at the rear.

I think the rear should be alright. but i was thinking i might need spaces or something for the front

can anyone confirm whether these will fit?

Thanks people.

Cheers

Steve

stock r32 gts-t are 6.5inch +40 offset (i think)

so for front

The clearance from stut housing to the inside of the wheel will be 9mm LESS

The outside edge of the wheel will EXTEND an extra 3mm

rear

The clearance from stut housing to the inside of the wheel will be 11mm LESS

The outside edge of the wheel will EXTEND an extra 27mm

rear is more of a worry than front, but it's almost the same as GTR width/offset (8inch +30) which fits ok on r32 gts-t in my experience, it may be wise to get the guards lipped perhaps.

    • The car remains in paint jail. I am now pretty convinced that the whole "RB25 Airboxes are kinda limiting to ~300kw" could be a thing. Also saw a good video from Engine Masters: (Sorry for FB link) (https://www.facebook.com/watch/?ref=search&v=761771519471924&external_log_id=c10bcbb6-2c39-4ff3-9240-287e9921fde6&q=Cold Air Considerations) Where they tested Pod Filter sizes and kept adding bends to a LS3 on an Engine Dyno to find if bends caused power loss. It's a good video worth watching - They did lose ~25hp from making an intake which had 3x90's and a 120 degree. They only lost maybe 1hp with a basic 90. I feel that by sealing up my airbox I have: 1) Created the same restriction a stock airbox would have. 2) Created a very convoluted set of intake 'pipes' by forcing all the air through the ducts. So I am pretty confident I'll be going full circle and have a huge hot air intake pod and actually see a benefit. The air does *not* stay hot once it gets flowing, aided by the ducts, and the pod can then pull air from anywhere. All the posts of yore talk about the stock airbox costing 10-15kw at 300kw+ but you know what? I f**king would very much like that 10-15kw and I remember my own pod filter in engine bay experiences. Turns out the GTT Reo and Headlight brackets really don't allow you to mount GTR items, no matter what the internet says. Various brackets have had to be made up to actually make it fit right for the front bar. Also some idiot mounted a 3L Accusump right where the bumper wants to go, so that has had to be 'relocated' To where, I am still not sure, but it's supposedly mounted in the pictures and I can't see it.
    • Sounds like the oil pressure light is wired into the oil temp sensor... As it warms up, resistance on temp sensor reduces, hence more current can flow and the dash light gets brighter.
    • Got the front subframe and suspension in.    
    • If it's cold in summer, then no issue. If it's cutting out every few seconds and you're not reaching your target temp, then there's an issue. One could be the pressure switch and the other issue could be the temp probe inside the evaporator.
