First of all, please forgive my ignorance. I am new to this site and found it to be a great Forum and has great people!

Can a 18x9.5 +30 wheel fit onto my R34 GTT seriesII? My car is stock with standard wheels and suspension. I am looking at changing my wheels to one of the BEE-R/Nismo LM types. (also similiar to the Drift Tek Wheels I've seen so far, but Drift Tek only comes in 17s at this stage is my understanding). Any photo's from anyone with these type of design wheels in a GTT?

With this settings, will I have any clearance/rubbing problems? even with full turns? I am planing on fitting 235x40xR18 rubber in the front and 265x35xR18 rubber at the rears. I also plan to fit some coil over suspension when I upgrade the wheels.

Lastly, has anyone heard about Rota wheels and where to get them in (Victoria) or Australia?

On a separate note, I have a set of Brembo calipers but not sure if I can use them. They are brand new Brembo Calipers made for BF Ford Falcon premium brakes setup thus, I was told that i have to fabricate some sort of bracket to suit Nissan. I am however, not sure of disc thickness requirements for this calliper as well. I have checked out DBA specs and found that Nissan and Ford has minimal difference in thickness for replacement rotor/disc. Any brake experts in here?

As for fmic, anyone know of brand(s) of front mount intercooler kits that utilises the factory plumbing? Reason is i don't want to cut any holes, or cut any body works to fit the fmic.

Thank you all in advance! Keep it coming! Cheers,Michael

Hi Micheal,

Welcome to SAU

Those wheels will fit fine. Why don't you go for the 265 all round? This will be much better for you as you can rotate tyres, wheels and whatever else.

The Brembos may or may not fit. You'd have to compare them to a set from a GTR.

Check out www.nismo.com.au and have a look at the GTS-T braking section. they have caliper repositioning kits which look the goodness. I wish I have a set, put it that way.

As for the Front mount, the HKS kits use the standard piping on the passenger side, you wont have to cut holes in the body, but with most kits you will need to trim the fron bar a fair bit.

:O

If you are in Melbourne, you could come and check mine out if you like.

Cheers

Pete

Nah, Plenty of guys have 265 all round.

Adzmax, GTTR34 and a few others.

Ask them for their offsets and you'll be fine.

If I was to get 18s, I would be getting 265 all round. In Buddy Club PII.

Cos they are the sexiest wheels on the planet. Lots of DISH BABY

Thanks for your response guys. Appreciate it. Yes. I am in Melbourne, can you kindly provide me (PM) your contact info? I would be delighted to come around to have a look at your car & setup.

Buddy Club PII? what wheel is that? Any pictures i can get off any websites?

I understand that the BLITZ R34 intercooler has a plumb-back system as well (seen the picture on AutoBahn n/Blitz website).

I have also heard that the Apexi FMIC does that as well, but I have not seen the actual setup till date.

These brands could be rather expensive though...

Anyone heard of ROTA brand wheels? Do you know where I can get them? Cheers, Michael

    • For once a good news  It needed to be adjusted by that one nut and it is ok  At least something was easy But thank you very much for help. But a small issue is now(gearbox) that when the car is stationary you can hear "clinking" from gearbox so some of the bearing is 100% not that happy... It goes away once you push clutch so it is 100% gearbox. Just if you know...what that bearing could be? It sounding like "spun bearing" but it is louder.
    • Yeah, that's fine**. But the numbers you came up with are just wrong. Try it for yourself. Put in any voltage from the possible range and see what result you get. You get nonsense. ** When I say "fine", I mean, it's still shit. The very simple linear formula (slope & intercept) is shit for a sensor with a non-linear response. This is the curve, from your data above. Look at the CURVE! It's only really linear between about 30 and 90 °C. And if you used only that range to define a curve, it would be great. But you would go more and more wrong as you went to higher temps. And that is why the slope & intercept found when you use 50 and 150 as the end points is so bad halfway between those points. The real curve is a long way below the linear curve which just zips straight between the end points, like this one. You could probably use the same slope and a lower intercept, to move that straight line down, and spread the error out. But you would 5-10°C off in a lot of places. You'd need to say what temperature range you really wanted to be most right - say, 100 to 130, and plop the line closest to teh real curve in that region, which would make it quite wrong down at the lower temperatures. Let me just say that HPTuners are not being realistic in only allowing for a simple linear curve. 
    • I feel I should re-iterate. The above picture is the only option available in the software and the blurb from HP Tuners I quoted earlier is the only way to add data to it and that's the description they offer as to how to figure it out. The only fields available is the blank box after (Input/ ) and the box right before = Output. Those are the only numbers that can be entered.
    • No, your formula is arse backwards. Mine is totally different to yours, and is the one I said was bang on at 50 and 150. I'll put your data into Excel (actually it already is, chart it and fit a linear fit to it, aiming to make it evenly wrong across the whole span. But not now. Other things to do first.
    • God damnit. The only option I actually have in the software is the one that is screenshotted. I am glad that I at least got it right... for those two points. Would it actually change anything if I chose/used 80C and 120C as the two points instead? My brain wants to imagine the formula put into HPtuners would be the same equation, otherwise none of this makes sense to me, unless: 1) The formula you put into VCM Scanner/HPTuners is always linear 2) The two points/input pairs are only arbitrary to choose (as the documentation implies) IF the actual scaling of the sensor is linear. then 3) If the scaling is not linear, the two points you choose matter a great deal, because the formula will draw a line between those two points only.
