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.

    • Yep that's pretty much what I want to see. Racecars that look and sound like the Group A but with newer tech underneath to make them faster and safer. I'm sure there's enough VK-to-VN commodore, E30 BMWs and Foxbody mustangs shells around to make up a decent number of cars with hopefully a couple of sierras, rx7 and R31s in there too. 
    • Contact Jessestreeter.com/Skevas Racing/JustJap for a new r34 rb gearbox or go a cd00# conversion. No point playing with unknown condition gearboxes.
    • Such a shame places like Amaroo Park have been redeveloped, smaller tracks always make for good racing. Cheers for sharing @PranK there's some good Lakeside video's too. Its so hard with older the cars as parts are so rare and everything was made for a particular chassis at that point in time. Even the V8 Supercar Blueprint era cars are all different between each chassis within a team as they learnt things and made improvements. The COTF cars between each Chassis builder is different too especially motor/oil systems/intakes. The Group A stuff is worth so much too especially chassis with good history. The only way to do it would be composite panels and similar engine drivelines to the original cars. Ford sierra running Focus RS driveline, Commodore running a short stroke LS/LT or a Falcon with coyote and a H Pattern dog box. Could use a standard ecu across all models with a Torque Map and DBW for parity which is not even used in Supercars currently. Hell a TCM is almost a full chassis car these days and the suspension is not even close to standard style in the front running cars.  
    • Dashcams Australia (13/05/25) captured JDMHSE (Vic plate) being a right tosser. 
    • Wish someone would start a racing series for Group A replica cars, a bit like Touring Car Masters but for 1985 onwards and not grandpa's falcon and/or Monaro. I know they race in some historic class but that's for original cars, no replicas allowed.
