Looks awesome guys!!

Nathan I love the rims mate! What sizes are they?

They are 19x10.5 +22 offset. There's also the +12 offset option too. Tyres are pirelli p-zero rosso 275/30

Nath, car looks sweeeetttt. Looking forward to seeing it in person hopefully soon :-)

Hey Tony, I haven't been to a meet in such a long time...So busy lately with functions.

can u get away with running +12 offset on a 34 without rolling the guards?

Terry's N1 has 18" x 10.5 +12 LMGT4s, they are fine and guards are stock (but have 265 width tyres so there's some stretch). If you had 20"s then you'd probably be forced to dial in some more neg camber or go a higher offset.

I run 275/30 on a 19x10.5 +12.. but i'm sort of a in a different category.

At one point I spaced the rears out with a 15mm spacer. On bumpy roads it will hit the guard and I had little lines in the tyre from the cut.

With a 275 tyre you will get away with it. My old tyres with the same rims were 285/35 and had so many problems. As what simson said, I had MANY of those little lines to the point it was conisidered a safety issue. Overall, you can go quite aggressive on offset. One interesting thing I saw at Racepace was a blue 34GTR with 20x10.5 (ADV.1 5.1spec) 285/25 and had no issues at all. I'm pretty sure it was those wheels.

Finally uploaded a couple. Not the best quality but oh well. When I got my car lowered, I had to get modified rear camber bushes and run as much positive camber due to the coilovers external oil canisters hitting the inner rim due to the width and offset of the rim. The guys at centreline suspension did a great job with fine tuning the coilovers and adjusting my cusco negative upper arms.

Car is absolutely beautiful mate imo that black thing on the bumper ruins it though, all personal preference though. Definately one of the nicest 34's ive seen!

Yep my car has had 20" x 10.5 with 285s on with no issues, but the offset was +20 or thereabouts.

    • 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.
    • The filter only filters down to a specific size. Add to that, the filter is AFTER the pump. So it means everything starts breaking your pump even if its being filtered out.
    • Just like in being 14mm too small (296mm) makes it not fit, being 14mm too big (324mm) it also won't fit. You want to find the correct rotor.
    • @GTSBoy Ok so that was the shops problem...they showed R33 rotors on R34 page and i did not know 296 do not fit(and are for R33) Yes i bought "kit" with rotors and pads. Pads are ok(i have GTT calipers front and rear). They have some 324mm but no 310mm. So i dont know if they would fit. I have 17inch LMGT4s So another question. Can i fit those in the rear or they are just "too" big for that?
