How much did they miss the rear fit by, Were the fronts OK?
Great looking rim, very well taken care of, with plenty of thread left.

Test fitted one rear to my 33 GTST, unfortunately they stuck out the gaurd by at least 5mm. So the rear gaurds need to be flared to fit a 33 gtst. But damn did they look sweet :) .

Good luck with the sale Matt, disappointed they didn't fit my car.

He didn't try the fronts, but they should fit fine. The fronts are the same offset as standard r34 GTR wheels.

They will "fit" a 32 GTR, but the offsets are in between Gts-t and GTR offsets...

Front wheels are Face 1 high pad which is designed to clear GTR brembo's, also clears my F50 brembo kit no probs

Rear wheels are Face 2, looks tuff :P

Odd that they didn't fit an R33, they have a wider body. When I had my R33 I used 20mm bolt on spacers to push the wheels out to the edge of the guard, when I got my R34 the 20mm spacers where to much & I couldn't use them.

Great wheels by the way! Would look good on my silver R34. Just trying to talk my Finacial manager (wife) in to it!

Still for sale. Let me know if you want to check them out. It's not that they didn't fit, Al's just being weak. They stuck out 5mm on his r33... big deal :cheers: Fill the R34 guards nicely.

So these will require lip rolling on a GTT? Even if my ride height is just lower then stock by about 15mm? How much would this cost?

If it's not lowered much, it wont be a problem, but if you have soft suspension or the car will be lowered more then yes, slight rolling of the inner lip of the wheels at the rear more than the front, but best to do both.

If you're in Melbourne I know someone who does it for around $150 all 4 corners.

Is this the process where they have to heat up the guards so the paint doesn't crack when you roll it?
Paint will always crack when you roll it.

I paid $330 to get all 4 of mine done by the people that do top show cars etc, and paint still cracked.

Nothing weak about it Matt :rolleyes: . With a $6k paint job, i didn't feel like a 10mm flare and repaint :( (I did say "AT LEAST 5mm" on a R33 gts-t)

    • Have a vb in honour of the car comming back
    • It was a great, but typical track day, and some VB was ingested at the night time debrief 🤪
    • And so, to round this out, I couldn't be happier to confirm @MBS206 has decided to buy the car. He drove down from sunny QLD with a trailer last week and it is off to its new home today. I'll let Matt confirm on next steps but I understand broadly that the plan is to leave it pretty much as is, and just get some quality wheel time with a nicely balanced car that is pretty much track ready. There are a few a jobs still to be done first but nothing too major and I think its a very smart buy Dinner last night at the Paragon with a round of VBs (mostly) for Neil
    • Well, 50 pages and the end of a chapter for this car. We took it out for a shakedown at Wakie yesterday, and everything went well. There were a couple of niggles: - Oil cooler fitting leak - tightened, cleaned, stopped leaking - Radiator cap overflow fitting was leaking....Mark called it, the overflow fitting was threaded in and not tight....tightened, tested and held pressure - Small oil leak at the rear of the block, probably the turbo oil feed - too hot to get at it comfortably but probably just needs to be nipped up - leak at the driver's side rear brake line where it meets the hardline. Fitting wasn't loose, so Matt backed it off and back on, no further leaks - there's also a leak somewhere on the top of the fuel tank, maybe that cross over fuel line - that was has been left to fix when its on a hoist Otherwise than those niggles the car went great, turned great and stopped great so it was a very successful day out. I'm always really nervous when a car first hits the track after a long break, especially with a brand new engine as well but it was great. VID-20251011-WA0007.mp4  Big thanks to @The Bogan who dropped by and helped out, @MBS206 and my nephew Lachlan the apprentice.  Neil's wife Mel also surprised the hell out of all of us by dropping by; she's up in Tamworth these days but was travelling to Melbourne so had plausible deniability for turning up at the garage, it was great to see her but also obviously a bit sad all round.
