Yep ive taken the plunge and had GTR gaurds (front and rear) fitted to my GTSt.

I currently have some WedSports RS-5's on there, 17x8 (unknown offset) and 17x9 +38 on the rears.

Currently they are wearing 215/40/17 at the front and 235/45/17's at the rear.

Can i put the 235's on the front and some 255's on the rear now? Also would i need 255/40 or 255/45 on it?

Would these offsets look ok with the gtr gaurds, or will i need some spacers now?

To make a car look truely wide and tough I think you need deep dish rims. Especially with wide gaurds!

And if you've just spent that much money on what is essentially only for looks than you should make the effort to really set it off with some deep dish rims. Sell your old ones and I doubt the difference would be all that much if you shop around!

Can someone do a small write-up on whats required to fit the front 32GTR guards on a 32gtst?

I know u need the guards (duh:p) and indicators, but what about the side skirts, and guard inners..do these need swapping as well??

Im looking atr doing this soon, just wondering if i need the extras...

thanks.

    • You Gregged a whole racetrack!?
    • Look for broken wire or bad connector at the motor. Might not be it, but is worth starting there, as it is easy.
    • Hi everyone, I’m having an issue with my R32 GT-R. Sometimes, when the car goes over a bump or experiences some vibration, the 4WD warning light comes on the dashboard. When I check the code from the control unit in the trunk, it shows Code 19 – ETS Motor. However, everything seems to be working fine — if I turn off the engine and restart the car, the light goes away and everything functions normally. Has anyone experienced this before? Where should I start troubleshooting this issue? Thanks in advance!
    • I'm back from the dyno - again! I went looking for someone who knew LS's and had a roller dyno, to see how it shaped up compared to everything else and confirm the powerband really is peaking where Mr Mamo says it should. TLDR: The dyno result I got this time definitely had the shape of how it feels on the road and finally 'makes sense'. Also we had a bit more time to play with timing on the dyno, it turns out the common practice in LS is to lower the timing around peak torque and restore it to max after. So given a car was on the dyno and mostly dialled in already, it was time for tweaking. Luis at APS is definitely knowledgable when it came to this and had overlays ready to go and was happy to share. If you map out your cylinder airmass you start seeing graphs that look a LOT like the engine's torque curve. The good thing also is if you map out your timing curve when you're avoiding knock... this curve very much looks like the inverse of the airmass curve. The result? Well it's another 10.7kw/14hp kw from where I drove it in at. Pretty much everywhere, too. As to how much this car actually makes in Hub Dyno numbers, American Dyno numbers, or Mainline dyno numbers, I say I don't know and it's gone up ~25kw since I started tinkering lol. It IS interesting how the shorter ratio gears I have aren't scaled right on this dyno - 6840RPM is 199KMH, not 175KMH. I have also seen other printouts here with cars with less mods at much higher "kmh" for their RPM due Commodores having 3.45's or longer (!) rear diff ratios maxing out 4th gear which is the 1:1 gear on the T56. Does this matter? No, not really. The real answer is go to the strip and see what it traps, but: I guess I should have gone last Sunday...
    • 310mm rotors will be avilable from Australia, Japan, and probably a few other places. Nothing for the front can be put on the back.
