Ben,

I have the same LM GT4 (19/10.5 +15).

How did you manage to get your rear wheels to sit so far in/under the guard. My rear rims stick out a lot more than yours.

And I think you mentioned your tyres are 285 wide. What brand are they?

Thanks

MIchael

Hey Mic, now you've got me stumped, as they just bolt on mine! Tyres are Nankangs. Pics of yours mate? I'm interested to work this out.

I need to meet someone with a decent camera! lol Here's mine, snapped with a 2 meg Nokia :laugh:

Nice C-West body kit!

Nismo LMGT4's looks GREAT!

You need a better offset in the rear tho.

More of a Negative offset to fill out your rear guards.

IMO :D

Here's the pic Benny

I'll snap a pic of mine on flat ground in the garage this afternoon. I'll also grab a straight edge try and gauge some measurements re gaurd clearence with that.

It's also worth noting I run close to 3 degrees of neg in the rear.

Thanks mate :laugh: These genuine kits are so nicely made! I was astounded to see the quality compared to our home grown copy stuff.

Without much camber in the rear, the wheel is actually nearly level with the gaurd, but as I've now got about 3 degrees on it, it moves the upper wheel in a little. I small spacer would be sufficient if it bothered me, as I'm not going to order new wheels, they're kind of expensive. I'm led to believe these are also the only offset that Rays make them in 19x10.5. :D

If I were to go a full body kit on a R34 GTR, C-West would be the one, with the Version 3 Front Bar. which I think it what you got.

Can't say I am a fan of the silver mesh though...

Or Nismo Z-Tune Front guards and Nismo Body kit is another I would go for.

Ah yes, spacers will help! +1 for that.

I too have a (from memory) 5mm spacer in my rears, just give it that extra fill out.

What offset is your wheels?

Is that the Yokohama ADVAN R34 GTR in the last pic?

As in the Hi Octane Racing one?

That car is Friggin awesome!

    • Seat of the pants assessment of the new intake: The car is way less "doughy" when hitting the loud pedal, especially off idle when stopped or in traffic, I did use a cheapo lazer thermal thingo to measure the temp around where the pod filter got its air, it was between 55 - 60°C, in saying this the car was shut off and not moving, so the OEM intake pipe was not supplying any fresh air to where the pod was when the car was at least moving A weird bonus was induction noise on the throttle in the cabin increased a bit,  I was worried that I was actually going to lose some of that induction noise I love so much, outside though, when I got the daughter to do a WOT drive by pass for me, the induction noise has increased alot when on the throttle, not quite ITB doort, but well up there I'm extremely happy with the results and have been exploring the country roads in the region  As for house mods: 1.New front fence is up and is awesome, it really upgraded how the joint looks from the street, and the added security is nice 2. Electricians have replace some interior lights, and with more lighting in the garage, a few new motion detecting lights out the front above the garage, front room, and at the front door, which I have already found heaps helpful coming and going, also now has fancy pants CCTV all round the house The only hold point for power though is the solar and batteries due to supply issues, although this will happen over the next few weeks 3. I have done a heap of landscaping out the front and I'm almost ready to do a new small retaining wall with some nice blocks to replace the brick and cemented in rocks around the raised garden beds cemented in river stone "was the fashion at the time" the house was built. I currently have a pallet of retaining wall blocks and 2 bulka bags of 20mm blue metal to replace the wood chip that is in the raised garden beds around the house 4. I now have 3 big raised garden beds for out the back to grow some vegetables, about 70cm high, 200cm long and 100cm wide 5. My 2 compost bins are already pretty full with brown, green and kitchen waste from the landscaping I'vedone so far, but they will probably take a few months to break down, so anything else that gets chopped, trimmed, and kitchen waste will just start filling the base of the raised garden beds to about 30cm before I start throwing 40cm of good compost, and stuff, for the vegetables to grow in, I'll need a few ton of compost and soil, but the local supplier can sent me bulka bags of the stuff Basically the logs, wood chips and a few strategically placed rocks for drainage, will give the beds some good organic materials down low to break down over time, and they will hold moisture during the warmer months to save the water in my big arse water tank if we don't get alot of rain So, all in all, the car and house mods are going well, and I'm really enjoying being retired, I sleep in too 0700 and slowly plod around inside until I feel like actually doing anything, and only work in the yard for as long as want, which has actually been alot over the last few weeks,  although when you look at it, it seems that not a huge amount of work has been done,  until I look at the before I started the work pics Happy days and good times indeed 
    • hahaha yeah. Plan is to get side skirts and probably just rear pods. But going to do them one-by-one. I've got a set that I really like from RHDJapen, but that one isn't shipped to AU. So need to find someone who can get it for me
    • Here's an idea, answer the questions I asked you as they are trying to work out WHY the LSD will be binding up in a straight line.
    • You haven't driven many modern cars then have you? Most of them have sfa steering feel with their stupid electric bullshit steering systems.
