Hi all.

I have a set of 18" RAYS / Nismo LMGT2 3 piece wheels that came off an R33 GTR and another set that came off an R34 GTR. Question is, are they a direct bolt-on for a V35 Skyline GT coupe? I do not have the offsets in front of me (and I am not an expert on them anyway) but I hope the vehicle's they came off will give someone in the know a clue if they will fit. The exact wheels are in the pics attached.

Thanks in advance.

Out.

It all depends on the offsets.

I've seen GTR offsets in the low teens. Something like this may not fit unless you do some serious guard rolling.

Being 18" the diameter will more than likely be fine, as I've seen V35's go to 11inch wide without too much drama.

The offset is really your only issue. If they are in the low 20's, high teens then you may be right. As an example a +22 offset is almost perfect for a V35.

Yeah, without offsets it'd be impossible to call.

They look a little sunken in on that R34 so its definitely possible, but I wouldn't stake my guards on it.

You can run an 18x9.5 +22 and 18x10.5 +22 on our cars without rolling the guards.

If you're willing to do some mods to the car (front and rear camber adjustment equipment, rolling the guards) you can fit aftermarket R34 GT-R rims onto our cars. There's a guy in the US running 18x10.5 +15 rims all round on his 350Z with 275 width tyres, with guard rolling and lots of camber.

Unfortunately he's taken his pics down from that thread (and other threads don't show it), but I remember that it did look retarded on the front since the tyres stick out with the amount of camber being run. An OK look if you're building a race car, but it looks a bit ghetto on a street car.

I will say that they will fit for sure. They look to be the same or more sunken than standard R34 GTR rims which are 18x9 +30. I have seen 19x9.5 +17 and 19x10.5 +18 on both V35 and R34 GTR (same rims that we tried on) and the rears were flush with 275/35/19 tyres and the front we still a little sunken in but not as much as in your pics.

      The final part arrived today to un-clampify and simplify the intake Who would have though a 1/2" hose stainless bulkhead fitting designed for below waterline bilge pumps would be what I needed Test fit on a 3" offcut I had laying around to see if it would work, and it worked a treat All going well the intake will be on its "final version" tomorrow

      R32 GTS (RB20DE) Injectors Replacement

      By GabsReDeal · Posted

      I checked the injectors again (1 and 2, since they’re easiest to access) to make sure they weren’t clogged. Even though the entire fuel system had been cleaned, I wanted to be certain. Everything looked clean, so I reinstalled and connected everything. When I started the car to confirm everything was okay, it immediately revved up high, so I shut it off straight away. I checked to see if I’d missed a vacuum hose or something, but everything was connected. On the second attempt, the car ran without the high idle, but I noticed a distinct “compressed air” sound coming from the engine bay. Tracing the sound, I pushed injector #6 forward slightly and the noise stopped — it turned out it wasn’t seated properly, despite the fuel rail being bolted down. While holding it in place, the car idled steadily without stalling and ran for over 5 minutes. At this point, I pulled all six injectors out just in case I hadn’t seated them correctly or dirt had gotten onto the O-rings. Unfortunately, I discovered that I had damaged 3 out of 6 injectors (the OEM 270cc ones) during installation. So yes, this was my fault. Since only the pintle caps were damaged, I’ve ordered a Fuel Injector Service Kit from NZEFI to refurbish them. In the meantime, I reinstalled my new injectors – the car now idles fine for over 15 minutes without stalling. I have not attempted to drive it so far. It’s not perfect yet, as it hesitates when the throttle is pressed, but it’s a big improvement. Unplugging the IACV with the new injectors idles at around 800rpm, even with the IACV screw tightened fully. But this is probably due to tune.
