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!

    • Forgot to include this but this is the mid section of my steering rack that looks like it has a thread/can be turned with that notch mentioned in the post:
    • Hey everyone, Wanted to pick some brains about this issue I'm having with rebuilding my 33 rack (PN is 49001-19U05). All of the tutorials/videos I've seen online are either R34 or S Chassis racks which seem to be pretty straightforward to disassemble but this process doesnt carry over to my rack. Few of the key differences that I've noted The pinion shaft on the other racks bolt on with 3 torx bolts: Whereas my rack bolts on with 2 allen head bolts: These changes are pretty inconsequential but the main difference is how you pull the actual rack out of the housing. The other skyline/s chassis racks can be taken out by tapping the rack out of the body with a socket and it just slides right out. I'm unable to do that with my rack because there's a hard stop at the end that doesn't let the seal/shaft be tapped out. Can also see a difference in the other end of the rack where mine has a notch that looks like you're able to use a big wrench to unthread 2 halves of the rack whereas the other racks are just kinda set in with a punch. My rack: Other racks: TLDR; Wanted to know if anyone has rebuilt this specific model of steering rack for the R33 and if there were any steps to getting it done easier or if I should just give this to a professional to get done. Sorry if this post is a bit messy, first one I've done.
    • I would just put EBC back on the "I would not use their stuff" pile and move on.
    • Can I suggest you try EBC directly again and link them to as many competitor catalogues as you can to show their listing is incorrect, eg https://dba.com.au/product/front-4000-series-hd-brake-rotor-dba42304/ If you have access to an R33 GTST VIN and your VIN, you could also use a Nissan Parts lookup like Amayama to show them the part number is different between 33 GTST and 34 GTT which may get their attention
    • So i got reply from EBC and they just this site where you can clearly see those 296mm fronts on R34 GTT. I send them photos and "quotes" that 296mm are not for 34 GTT and they are too small. But it will be very hard to return them cuz nobody here knows 100% and they just copy those EBC catalogue :-D https://ebcbrakesdirect.com/automotive/nissan/skyline-r34
