now looking into Work Emotion XD9's (not sure if i should get grey or bronze?)

Anyone know what sort of offsets are needed to get a 10inch wide rear rim on a gts-t? I dont mind if the guards need minor lipping.

thanks craig....thats a pretty handy site!

I think the work rims Im after only come in +18 & +38 in the 10inch range? so I'm hoping one of them will fit. I've just emailed WORK themselves to ask.

Do you have any photos of your car on here? need to figure out what'll suit my car best...bronze or grey. They'd both look good...thats the problem.

I was just going through the deca photos I've collected and bronze looks dark in most shots. Its going to give off a fairly similar overall look. The grey or the bronze, just personal choice in the end.

yo Berin...

yeah I dont like the XD9s on the web page but looked wicked as we discussed on the w/e.

Not to expensive from memory either...bronze would be good IMO. Might get some myself LOL

yeah I never even considered them till I saw them on Shanes GTR....they look great in person. An as you say, i think there gonna be very well priced, so they've got a lot going in there favour.

keep in mind they had that much dish because they're suited to the GTR...so unless you're gonna get GTR spec widths/offsets, they probably won't look like that...its like TE37's on some R34 GTR's have dish and look even sexier than just normal TE37's...

ahh yeah...i did look into those, but was told only available in 17's at the time (about 3-4 weeks ago). May have to consider em again.

Yeah I know Dezz, thats why I want 10's on the rear, not too concerned on the front, so long as theres an inch or more on the front, I'm happy.

driftteks , they are now available in 18's and in silver bronze or black.. cost around 320 per rim aswell

are you sure they're available in 18" only has 17" on that site

EDIT: even koya.com.au only has 17"

searched ns.com, no luck. checked out cj motor trader, nothing. Started a thread in the general section, and no one has heard of them in 18" now.

could you find what you find by any chance? get a link maybe? because i'm VERY interested...

    • Sounds like you've got an interesting adventure ahead here with local support if you have trouble! My guess is that, unboosted, you will be OK with a small upgrade like -9. What will happen is that once the stock ECU sees more airflow than it expects it will add a heap of fuel and pull a heap of timing to be safe because it can't understand how it could get that much air without there being an issue. You will see clouds of black smoke and it won't pull hard through the midrange and top end. So, overall it will be a bit frustrating but should be OK. If you are still nervous set the base timing back 2o through the CAS, but it will be even more sluggish everywhere. As said above through...this is not my guarantee your engine won't be blown into a million pieces, leaving you looking for very hard to find parts A better idea is get a computer with logging ASAP, wire in a wide band O2 sensor and a use remote tuner. I've done multiple cars this way and while it is not as good as a specific tune on a dyno they can get it 90% right. I'd suggest if you can afford an R33 GTR these days you can afford an ECU and tune. And if you can't afford that you sure won't be able to afford the rebuild if it goes bad in the meantime,.  
    • Yeah it would be nice if someone took the time to put that sort of information together, but there are a lot of variations in looms. I think you are making this way hard for yourself if you just want to get it running....sourcing an SR20 with the right wiring will be a billion times easier than matching the RB loom to an S15 chassis. If you do end up going this way, you just need to trace every wire in the loom with a multimeter, 95% of them will go to a location you can confirm at the ECU.....and then post it up for the next person who needs it  
    • Just top it up with water, and keep a general idea of how much you added. It is normal for water to be pushed into and pulled out of the reservoir through the cap, and it should not be more than half full or it will be likely to overflow when hot. Any decent mechanic can do a pressure test of the cooling system to confirm if you have a leak. Keep in mind if it is only leaking a little and when hot it may well evaporate before you see it hit the ground
    • I'd ask the shop what they used and use that. Mixing coolants is sometimes OK, sometimes not, and you have know the details of each coolant to know whether it's a good idea or not.
    • Is it alright to top up with just another green coolant?
