I've got an offer to wheels cheap from a certain store, they dont offer alot of rims, but still some, these are the different rims i'm thinking of, so what do you think, should i go with 18" or 19" for my R33 Gtst? And what rims should i go with, if i shop from this store?

Exists in 18" only

BTW, the car is not very low, but it got Nismo coilovers and nismo springs, you can get an idea here:

Your the guy that wanted to paint your r33 right? If your going to paint it yellow go for a set of white 18s or a nice set of black 18s with polished lip, look hell nice. From the pic you've got above I rekon the forth ones looks nice. Best to get 18s in my opinion because its the tyres thats going to hurt your wallet mate and 19s are damn expensive. If money arent a problem for you then hell yeah go for 19s.

before going 19's, consider ride quality but more to the point, if you going to start making a bit of power then 19's wont do, especially if your going to take it to the track...

At least with 18's you can get some very nice rubber for traction and track days...

coilovers + 19s + low profile rubber = no more ride comfort...

Not to mention the cost of 19" rubber as compared to 18s.

I vote the 2nd one from the top, they look kinda like the Blitz technospeed wheel

Go 18s!

Ok, you've convinced me :bomb_ie:

Im going for 18s!

So, so far i've got 1 vote for nr 2, and 1 vote for nr 4.

To bad nr 1 doesnt exist in 19", cause that would have looked nice! But they might look a bit less good in 18".

I would probably gone for nr 4, if it had a wider lip, but now im not sure...

      Looking for a part number for this part here

      By Duncan · Posted

      So....to find any R chassis part number, get your VIN (will be something like ER33-xxxxxx for you) and go to: https://www.amayama.com/en/genuine-catalogs/nissan and enter it. From there you have access to a web version of Nissan's part system, FAST. It is a bit tricky to get used to, so maybe have a shot and post up what you think.  You can also search by general model but note in some cases your car might have different options so VIN is safest.  On diagram 211 I got 14075-75T16 for Connector, Water Hose If I search for part 14053‑21U10 that you posted, that is also a water hose but not the one bolted to the plenum and 14075‑04U00 is the fitting where the water hose goes into the block.

      Duncan's V37.......race car?

      By Duncan · Posted

      Yeah now we are talking I much prefer coolers in the front middle because it lessens the chance of a small bump to a corner stopping the whole event. I was thinking the AT cooler can move out of the radiator, delete the AT/engine coolant interwarmer and mount a separate cooler with a thermoswitch somewhere further back as is common in racing, that would be one thing. Beyond that, the engine oil cooler is an obvious one to move to the wheel arch, potentially one on each side, but unused space is an issue. I did have a earlier pic with the bumper off but it doesn't show how busy the corners are: DS is full of the auto driving sensors and PS is totally fully of windscreen washer fluid reservoir But ultimately I was hoping to keep the AC, and the water/air heat exchanger is fundamental so it is not just the radiator that needs to be in front BTW here's airflow to the rad as it ran at the track (one horn is gone now and I'll remove the lights next time):
