LOL once a poser always a poser hey matty :laugh:

Good to catch up again

for sure mate

and yeah, thats true...........wasnt quite game enough to hit rundle or hindley on the way thru, but squeezed in a bay lap.....

perfect weather to as well, lotsa cars so a bit of stop start. when i got a bit of an opening to giv it a lil bit, it'd built enough fuel up to giv a nice pop (which was rather loud ricochetting off the buildings LOL)

:glare:

Would i be better off getting 17x9 front 17x9.5 rear (need to roll the guards though at the back ?) if i dont want to use spacers ? How would that fit do you know...

The width is one thing BUT offset is another, If Matty has had to use spacers then i would assume you will need to also!!

Matty did have the 9.5's on the rear which sat very similar. I think he changed them to 9s because he wanted to go drifting more often, he got 2 pairs of 9s as another pair of 9.5's weren't available, and he can put slightly skinnier tyres on the 9's (easier to spin up?)

Anyway, im sure he'll anser soon :P

Were spacers used when he had the 9.5's on the back ?

8s on front yeah, not 9s LOL. And thats rite, never ran a spacer on the rear with the 9.5s

9.5s are +18 (gtr offset)

9s are +35 (s13, r32 etc)

currently running a 25mm bolt on at rear, goin to put the 25mm up front tho, and get a 35mm for the rear to push them out more

ran 235s on 9.5s (was a bit hard with 155rwkw to spin 3rd), but now run 215s on 9s (and it spins easy as)

to put 9.5s on the rear of the 31, it required a bit of massaging of the guards

and scandyflick..........that was the plan all along. 2 red 31s.......one mild, one wild.....................

Hmm i really want the car to grip well. So what width would you recommend for mine ? (keep in mind i dont particularly like spacers...but i dont like my rims sitting inside the guards either :P)

how much power u going to be making? thats the question

id probably say try and get hold of some 9.5s for the rear

*edit: my idea just blew thru LOL

Edited by Matty 31
i thought you were getting ben's roh's?

plans always change with him

just spoke to him, he's managed to make them fit on the rear LOL.........and by the sounds of it (20lb hammer) he's got them to fit ............ when the rear coilovers hav no downward adjustment left in them its got to be low LOL

    • Thank you, 100% the intent. New coils were due and the 17" sixers look/feel loads better than the stock wheels. The aero options are so spot on.   Thanks for the warm welcome, all!
    • 98 r34 gtt Been rocking my latest setup and car running like never before. Have put a good 200 miles on it since all the latest changes and additions. everything is dialed in and have been driving it a bunch.   However, all a sudden last weekend as soon as I pushed throttle passed 4k and the engine stumbles, (slow or fast acceleration) hesitates and doesn’t go above 4100 or so, like a misfire. Everything else seems fine. I had a “good” set of coil packs that I removed from car when I first got it when I changed them over to new coils. I swapped out current ones for those, but no change. I also changed the plugs, no change. Seems to rev over 4 when out of gear with no load just fine no “misfire”, but as soon as its in gear with a load of any kind, it “misfires” as soon as rpm drop back below 4 k it runs perfectly, smooth, starts, restarts and drives fine as long as I keep it below 4 k while in gear. All readings look fine, no CEL   Any idea as to what could all a sudden cause an issue when pushing rpms passed 4 k?
    • When you say your cams are 272/262 is that 272in and 262ex?
    • We're arguing semantics. I am saying 45 accel and a 55 deccel ramp are "2 ways". Even a 45 degree ramp and an 89 degree ramp is "2 ways", because it is literally... two ways. The cusco 55/30 ramp is a 2 way. It's two ways. I get it though - in normal nomenclature a "2 way" would be 45/45 or 55/55 or 60/60 i.e the same locking in both directions. And something like 45/65 would be considered "1.5 way". I would then say if we're getting into the nitty gritty then every locking diff is a "2 way" diff and we should not speak in 1.5, or 2 ways but ramp angles instead. Which ofc if one of those ramp angles is 90deg, that side is not doing any locking. :p So Nismo don't obviously sell 3 things. The fact of the matter that they only sell two items really goes to show that there's a 2 way and a "1,5 way" which is really a 1 way. I believe the actual lockup for the 'adjustability' of the GT pro is really just setting preload for when the ramps actually start locking up. It's not changing how much 'wayness' there is. It is (somehow) horribly explained. People just buy whatever diff and go "locks up good bruh" and that's what ends up on socials forever.
