Plz Help! Need Rims To Fit Over Brembos That Aren't Over 7.5" Wide


Recommended Posts

hey i live in rockingham and was wondering if someone could help me out i have 34 gtr rims on my 260rs stagea but they are too wide apparently to pass inspection. The problem is i need rims that are legal but still big enough to fit over the brembo calipers 33gtr wheels would be ideal cause i know im prob not gna get stock 260rs wheels so if anyone can help me out i would be very greatful.

cheers

I have some 17x7 rims that may fit. Two of the four tyres are bald though, so if you're really desperate, you can borrow these and get new tyres. Keep looking around tho, hopefully someone has something more appropriate :unsure:

Try and source a set of 32GTR wheels.

If you have a genuine Stagea 260rs Autech, why can't you pass with the 33GTR wheels, as they are factory fitment. If the inspector doesn't know what Autech is, just explain that Autech is to Nissan, what HSV is to Holden and what FPV is to Ford. Also the tyre placard will show that the car is engineered to have 33GTR wheel.

why are they too wide ?

there is no legal width limitations now according to the traffic act unless they stick out the guards

contact the dpi for conformation coz my gtr is legal with 9" rims on it

according to the ruling a car cannot have a rim width larger then 7" wide, unless it came from factory larger, which in that case they cannot be any larger (ie from factory 8", then no wider is allowed)

nope, that laws abolished in favor of the ADR now, which is as gaz said.

now you can have 1.3x the largest factory option, as long as it doesn't affect track width by more than 25mm, and doesn't protrude from the guards.

so now a car standard rim of 16x8 eg r32gtr can now run 20x10's legally

R33's run 225's stock, so 285's are the largest you can go. :D (made my 275's nice and legal :))

also, the diameter rule is gone too, as long as the rolling diameter doesn't change, you can have whatever you like.

    • Here is the mess that I made. That filler there was successful in filling dents in that area. But in the middle area. I can feel dents. And I've gone ocer it multiple times with filler. And the filler is no longer there because i accidently sanded it away. I've chased my tail on this job but this is something else lol. So I'm gonna attempt filler one more time and if it doesn't work I'll just high fill primer the door and see where the issues are because guidecoat is of no use atm.
    • Ok, so I think I sort of figured out where I went wrong. So I definitely overthinked it, and I over sanded, which is probably a large part of the problem. to fix it, I ended up tapping some spots that were likely to be high, made them low, filled them in, and I tackled small sections at a time, and it feels a lot better.    I think what confused me as well is you have the bare metal, and some spots darker and some are lighter, and when I run my finger across it, it' would feel like it's a low spot, but I think it's just a transition in different texture from metal to body filler.    When your finger's sliding on the body filler, and crosses over to the bare metal, going back and forth, it feels like it's a low spot. So I kept putting filler there and sanding, but I think it was just a transition in texture, nothing to do with the low or high spot. But the panel's feels a lot better, and I'm just going to end up priming it, and then I'll block it after with guide coat.   Ended up wasting just about all of my filler on this damn door lol  
    • -10 is plenty for running to an oil cooler. When you look at oil feeds, like power steering feeds, they're much smaller, and then just a larger hose size to move volume in less pressure. No need for -12. Even on the race cars, like Duncans, and endurance cars, most of them are all running -10 and everything works perfectly fine, temps are under control, and there's no restrictions.
    • Update: O2 sensor in my downpipe turned out to be faulty when I plugged in to the Haltech software. Was getting a "open circuit" warning. Tons of carbon buildup on it, probably from when I was running rich for a while before getting it corrected. Replaced with new unit and test drove again. The shuffle still happens, albeit far less now. I am not able to replicate it as reliably and it no longer happens at the same RPM levels as before. The only time I was able to hear it was in 5th going uphill and another time in 5th where there was no noticeable incline but applying more throttle first sped it up and then cleared it. Then once in 4th when I slightly lifted the throttle going over a bump but cleared right after. My understanding is that with the O2 sensor out, the ECU relies entirely on the MAP tune and isn't able to make its small adjustments based on the sensors reading. All in all, a big improvement, though not the silver bullet. Will try validating the actuators are set up correctly, and potentially setting up shop time to tune the boost controller on closed loop rather than the open loop it is set to now. Think if it's set up on closed loop to take the O2 reading, that should deal with these last bits. Will try to update again as I go. 
    • More so GReddy oil relocation kits, sandwich plates, etc. all use 10AN fittings. And same, I've only used 10AN and my car sees track work (circuit, doing laps, not 10 sec squirt business).
