Hey members

I am pretty new to wheels & tyres and hope SAU member can help me by giving ideas.

question is what size (offsets) spacer can be fitted on standard R32 GTST wheels to make it bit more wider (close to body line) instead of changing whole wheels & tyres. and best place to get them..

I love idea of changing them to more nicer wheels but I thought it will stil look nice even with stocked wheels if fitted bit more wider as I would like to keep my 32 as original as possible. and I would like to know if any one done it like this??

or do you think it will look wider body celica or camry?? :P

Cheers~~!!

well, stock r32 offset is 16x6.5 +40, gtr is 16x8 +30

^ i think the above is right but you might want to check

so... quick calculation means 32gtr rims stick out an extra 29mm, so 30mm spacers should make stock 32gtst rims look like you have gtr ones, which in my experience fit fairly well on gts-t guards, so go 15-30mm spacers

But...

DONT rely on the above, look at your stock rims, and take a measuring tape to them and see where the edge of the rim will sit with 15mm or 20mm or 30mm spacers on them..... you may need to roll your guards.

Also... keep in mind in most states spacers are illegal.

      R32 update from 1990's spec.

      So for the wide band is a Bosch 4.9 correct for the Link G4+ along with a Can bus? Just get the Link gear or is generic ok too? Eg here: LINK LINK DIGITAL WIDEBAND CAN MODULE WITH BOSCH 4.9 SENSOR : KYP Performance House

      RB26DETT Sketchy boost mod?

      Bit difficult to follow. Have a look below and see what the standard R32 layout was like. Note there was a restrictor in place immediately before "turbocharged pressure control solenoid" that, if removed, magically got you 1 bar boost.

      I might be way off the mark here.. there must be a T junction under the manifold. That takes manifold pressure through a check valve prior to the T, one side splits out to this bleed off orifice, the other straight to the wastegate actuators.

      RB26DETT Sketchy boost mod?

      Carrying out some engine due diligence before my first drive in a 260RS that has been in storage for 10+ years, and found two lines that are susposed to be plumbed into the boost control solenoid. One of the lines (the wastegate boost supply line) to actuate the gates, had a bolt in one end blocking it. The other line (main boost signal line) from the very rear of the intake manifold (RB26DETT) and runs up to the boost controller had this pill in the end of it as seen in photos. Other than the obvious (T28 Ceramic turbos might well be cooked)  Can anyone shed any light on if there is any validity at all with this mod, bleeding a constant fixed rate of manifold boost pressure off through this 3mm hole?  Is it deliberate?  Was this a 90s Jap mod done to RB26's? Or has someone just fitted this without any idea of what happens to ceramic T28s if they are not gate controlled?
