HAHA @ 40gallon drum!!

Im running 275s on the rear end of my S1 33, and theyre stretched onto an 11" rim id say maybe(if they make them, im no tyre expert) a 295 would go on it no problems, but getting an 11" rim into stock not even lipped guards may be a slight headache, maybe 11" with a +40 or +50 offset would do it, but i dunno what it would scrub against on the inside, like hit the suspension or something.

Plus I dunno if u slam 33s how the camber turns out, id say the height of your car would make a difference too?!?

Probably best to talk to a tyre shop, actually a few tyre shops.

U really need a list of people who are running fairly fat tyres on the @ss end of their 33 with stock guards to post up their rim width and offset. Change the title of the thread so ppl do list their sizes and go by that maybe?

Or u could go out to your car when the rain stops and measure up your current rims, plus the distance to the closest inner object(ie: springs), plus the distance to the edge of the guard, do the math and u have the answer :cheers:

How big are the spacers? If u can find out the offset that will help u a bit.

Are the rims your running those in your sig? Axis Hiro? Lenso GT-05?

How much room u got left between the outside of the rim/tyre and the guard/wheel arch?

I reckon a 275 no problem or maybe even a 285(do they make these?) would get under the @ss end!?!

Guard mods FTW!!! :O

Yeah they are the axis hiro. But im not planning on changing mine. Wont know with guard room until I change suspension as right now its sits pretty high.

      thanks GTSboy. My confusion at the moment is i am trying to locate the ignition, ECU battery power and the ECU negative The closest thing i can find is the for the S15 on Page 8 of the Wiring Specialties web page https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B9F33_M_GgENQnZ6STMxVmVNd1E/view?resourcekey=0-eZ4nNRwRoqa1qvKlWWHm8A I cannot find the same diagram for the R33 RB25DET Series 2 dash plug pin out.... Do you know what the Pins? or know where i can find the same pinout diagram for the RB dash plug? Thanks for the advice on the box... i like a 6 speed so might be on the lookout or the box now.. a topic of discussion for another post...

      Put another overflow bottle (ie, a 1.25 coke bottle or similar) under the overflow hose and see if it is being pushed out there or if it is disappearing into the engine.

      Staring on a stand is no issue. You just have to wire everything up, give it fuel and cross your fingers that the stand is robust enough. Arranging the inlet plumbing is often the hardest part, without any surrounding structure to hand some of it from. No need for coolant if you only want to run it for <1 minute. As to the gearbox - I think the little Aisin box is a bit stronger than the other small Nissan boxes that went behind SRs, but I wouldn't be too keen to test its limits with the torque of a boosted 25. I don't know if you can retain the box and the tailshaft. The box won't connect to the RB without an adapter of some sort, which is either a plate that will push the engine forward (which is not good for fitting it into the bay's available space) or push the box back, which messes with the box position and tailshaft length - OR - cut and shut work on the bellhousing, which is a long way from "least modification". I'd be buying a new 370Z 6 speed or similar, doing what has to be done to that to make it fit RB (ie, cut and shut bellhousing) and the requisite tailshaft custom/mods.
