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)

    • oh they were with that motor, you need to remove the engine to change the spark plugs (don't have to, but it does make it easier)
    • I certainly fall into the annoyed camp, but glad to hear that if it's happening at low boost then I'm not likely going to blow a turbo and end up with metal shards in my oil. Just feels like it prevents me from really driving it without hesitation and "peak" performance. Wonder if it's the VCAM, it did an impressive job of shifting the torque curve and faster spool, but maybe now it's "too fast" and there's too much air for how open the throttle is.  Based on some other threads, will also do some reading on synchronizing the actuators. They are the default actuators that come on the Garrett's and I would think they would be set the same coming from the factory, but if the turbos don't actually work exactly the same way at the same time as previously mentioned, it would be worth making sure the actuators are actuating together properly
    • I went down this rabbit hole before, ended up sourcing a motor from the UK (I'm in Japan) which also didn't function correctly. With the original motor, I disassembled it and reassembled it and it works somewhat, sometimes. What I could deduce from all my screwing around is that there is calibration of the gears on the inside of the motor and two ramps on the main gear which activate switches that operate the motor and move the sunroof either to retract into the roof or tilt. Where I got stuck was that, it seemed in my case that one or both of the switches that are activated by the ramp on the gear did not always activate and thus the motor did not move, causing it to sometimes not retract or tilt (apologies, I've forgotten which way it didn't work.).  Of course this part is discontinued at Nissan now, it's the same part in the S15 but no other models. I also contacted the manufacturer of the component for schematics - forgot the name, they're based in Gifu - but they declined to share the information due to being bound by an NDA, sadly. Looking through my pictures now, it seems I last had a crack at this in 2022. See, I so kindly wrote "open" and "close" next to the switches. If you figure it out, please do tell me. Those little switches, with the red buttons may need to be replaced.
    • It says 300ZX, does that make it an Aus delivered car? Funny how back in the day I just couldn't care less about Z32's and these days I am just in love with them. Back when Nissan was into pushing the envelope. 🤣
