8.5 in front and 9.5 at the back....

Calculator says

"The clearance from stut housing to the inside of the wheel will be 7mm MORE

The outside edge of the wheel will EXTEND an extra 33mm"

And

"The clearance from stut housing to the inside of the wheel will be 5mm LESS

The outside edge of the wheel will EXTEND an extra 45mm"

respectively i still dont understand..

does it mean it sticks out by 3.3 cm and 4.5 cm?

it means, fronts wheels stick out 3.3cm, and rears 4.5cm from whatever you punched in as "original" rims

Youll have to look on your car to see where the edge of the rim will sit in relation to the guards,

some guard rolling or light flaring may be required, but I really don't know with r34's.

will these fit or do you need to roll the guards?

i understand i need +38

i will be runnning nismo rims with +35 offset +10 to 15mm spacers on the rear of my r33 very soon (as soon as the rims come from japan)

i let you know how it goes.. alot of people talk about you cant run +20ish* offset on an r33 but seeing a s13 running r33 gtr wheels + 10mm spacers on the rear without flaring leans me to belived that i can do it on the r33

(ps i cant find a photo right now of the car im talking about but this is a similar style)

I did a trial fit of my 17x9" +20 BBS track rims I was using with my 33 GTR on my new 33 GTST. . . . . no chance. Needed more than rolling the guards to make them fit. Only tried the front, didn't get around to the rear. . . . Not sure what the offset is on standard 33 GTR rims but they fit, just.

on my r32 gts-t

this is what 18x10 +11 offset rims look like, so use the calculator to see how you'd go.

mine are stock rear guards with flaring.

also, the fronts in that picture are where r32 gtr rims will sit on stock front gts-t guards. 16x8 +30 offset

hope this helps!

    • Hang on. Let me get this straight. The desire is to have coilovers, BC in particular, to be MORE comfortable on Sydney roads than stock suspension? Well, that's obviously not right. BCs have crude damping design at the very best, and typically hard spring rates. BC stands for Billy Cart. And then, the desire is to put in some shitty old worn out stockers, to get it blue slipped and then put the BCs back in? And then.....what? Not worry about getting pulled up by the Plod? Because you seem to have raised a worry about paying for engineering (which actually does solve all your legality problems) and still getting pulled up.... but the only problem there is that if/when that happens you have to show your paperwork at the inspection station. Whereas, if you just swap in borrowed shitty old stockers to get it slipped now, and then you get defected in the future, you have to go find more shitty old stockers then too. You course of action looks like this set of options: Buy brand new stock type dampers, and springs. probably cost a bit more than $1k all up, but will last for the remaining life of the car. Put them in, pass inspection, drive on them forever more. Hell, they could even be really nice Bilsteins and Kings or other lower&stiffer springs if you wanted. Get the car engineered as is. ~$1k. Buy new Shockworks coilvers (or MCA) and also pay for engineering. You're spending a lot more here. But these will be the best things that you could drive around on.
    • Might be worthwhile hitting up Facebook's groups, I know most of them contain terrible people and scammers - however you might be able to find someone that's in Sydney with factory suspension you could purchase and/or hire. Just do not send any form of money anywhere, in person cash only.
    • Thanks @Duncan Ride height is fine. I think it's almost stock tbh. Happy to share a pic. I don't actually have a regular mechanic as haven't lived in Sydney too long. Could you or anyone recommend any shops in Sydney?
    • You just need a different blue slip shop (preferably one you regularly use as a mechanic), and make sure the coil overs are as close as possible to standard height
    • yeah the sugar refining companies were pushing for the same in Oz originally, all fuels were going to have 10% ethanol to make them "cheaper" (noting, that the loss in l/100 might be greater than the decrease in price). I guess they won that fight in Canadia
