Hey guys

About to put a deposit down to get some 18x10 rays gtc's but wondering what offset I should go for, for my gtr32. I was told that the standard offset looks pretty tame when put on the car, but I want the tyres sitting flush under the guards! Planning on going 265/35 all round. Any help would be great! And pics of cars wit the same width rims and tyres would be sweet cheers!

sorry to keep hijacking your thread phat25t...

The dude down at bob janes seems to think they wont fit. Im not sure what offset would be required? Im also not entierly sure what offset is... I understand 255 is width, 45 is profile and 17 is rim size.

is offset distance from the center of the tyre from the center of the hub?

The guy at bob jane didnt seem to think the problem would be with the width but with the height...

he's probably right. a 255/45*17 will be about an inch larger in diametre than a 255/40*17. The 255/40 is about the right diametre for an R32 GTR.

yes, offset of the wheel is the distance from the centre of the wheel to the mounting face at the hub. bit of a recent discussion about offsets on R32 GTR here

      S1 Autech 260RS Wiring Diagrams

      By ARB26 · Posted

      Newbie here, proud owner of an Autech 260RS. I'm on the hunt for wiring diagrams specific to the 260RS, particularly S1. I've ran my eyes through R33, R34 Diagrams, there are some similarities, however continue to find incorrect wire colours and pins on connectors in the 33,34 diagrams.   I was hoping someone could point me in the right direction? I'd be happy to pay for the originals in Japanese. I can translate them, at least they would be accurate.   Any help please would be greatly appreciated, never heard an RB26DETT before let alone driven one, and I've got a spaghetti monster of goodness to sort out.   Cheers Benny

      Tein Circuit Master- rebuild worth it?

      By QB6SAGR · Posted

      Thanks guys,  Yeah I should at least have them dynoed, at least then I know what I've got as a starting point.  The springs on these are hard as rocks. I vaguely remember Russman saying he was going to sell the shocks to me with the rocks fitted, as he was keeping the softer springs for his new setup.  I didn't click at the time but of course that was to let me know the shock/spring wouldn't be matched.  I also remember pricing up new springs around 2014-15, but, house, money etc. it never happened. So that was another reason to have them rebuilt. I have rebuilt the forks on many motorcycles so I think I could handle the seals on these easily enough, but getting the valving right would be a rabbit hole I cbf exploring.  Duncan, interesting to hear RP was tuning these back then. I might give them a call.  In the mean time I have been busy fitting sway bars. The Whiteline rear sway bar I purchased 15 years ago finally got fitted, along with the Whiteline front bar that showed up last week. Just waiting on new links for the front sway bar to finish that off.  And my spare set of advan AVS VS5's should be back from the powder coaters in a Pearl White finish sometime this week, with a set of Hankook RS4's lined up for fitting.  And then I just have all the suspension bushes to do. A comprehensive kit is on the way... Lots to do before the Ararat hill climb. Cheers guys 🍻
