The only reason why the rears normally have more dish is because they can take a wider and lower offset wheel compared to the front. For a wheel that is designed to have dish, you'll have more dish with more width and a lower offset.

Front's also normally have less dish because the face type of the wheels are made to clear larger calipers.

Those wheels sounds like they've come from tempetyres or something like that. The widths are too small/thin for that wheel diameter in my opinion.

what alot of people get confused is the terminology of deep dish, and deep lip.

that is deep lip.

most people will still call a "deep lip" wheel "deep dish" because thats the common idea of it

You'll probably never see a car with more dish up front than the rears unless he purposely did that to prove me wrong. There's always more dish at the rear compared to front because the rears can run wider and lower offset wheels. Front's are usually thinner with a higher offset and often have a different face to clear larger brake calipers. This face minimizes the amount of dish the wheel has.

I'm sure there was no need for me to explain that, but for those that didn't know...

I have no idea how my situation will turn out... I have a R34 GTT 2 door and I'm getting Racing Hart CXR's 19x8.5 +21 on the front and 19x9.5 +35 for the rears. The reason my offset for my front is +21 is because I bought some aftermarket front vented fenders that are 20mm wider than stock. I hope it still turns out lookin good... 15mm should be that big a difference... right?

    • After using a protractor for an actually accurate assessment of what is required,  and by NOT using my uncalibrated eyeball I worked out I need a 25° silicone bend from the TB ro the MAF, but, my choice was either a 30° or a 23° (23° is a weird spec), so I grabbed the 23° one from Raceworks I also grabbed 1mtr of 3" straight from Just Jap, I needed 350mm, but they only had 300mm, or 1mtr lengths....meh Also ordered a 1/2" hose bulkhead fitting from fleabay, this has a smoothish mushroom looking head (they are designed for below the water line of boats) that will fit inside the bend, the hose bit and threaded bit looks to long, but nothing that a hacksaw cannot fix if required, the hose will then just get jamed on the threaded bit up to the retaining nut Fingers crossed and the unsightly amount of hose clamps will be reduced down to 4 once all the parts arrive 
    • Oil change does not trigger code 21. Code 21 is for coilpacks primary side connection. You can try to clear the code with a battery disconnect, hold down the brake pedal to drain capacitors through the brake lights with the ignition on for 10-15 seconds before you reconnect the battery. I have seen R35 coil conversion permanently cause this code with no ill effects so it might be the resistance it wants to see isn't quite right on one or more coilpacks. Could be inside the ECU, could be the harness, could be a coil. You can test it all if you want or just ignore until the car actually starts misfiring.
    • I forgot you have a Nistune ECU. Use Nistune to do all the tests I mentioned instead of faffing with 30+ year old electrical connectors. You can read MAF volts off that too, there are reference values in the service manual to tell you roughly what it should be in different conditions.
    • No. I think it might be the AFM. Hence the use of the terms "swaptronics", which implies the use of swapping out electronics for the purpose of diagnosis. It's about the only way to prove that a small/niggling/whatever problem with an AFM or a CAS or similar is actually caused by that AFM/CAS/whatever. A known good item swapped in that still gives the same problem is likely to be caused somewhere else. They're all the same. Spraying AFMs with cleaner is an each way bet between cleaning it and f**king it.
    • Oh wow! This might actually work amazingly. Do you know the ratio of the diff? I was told the only thing you need to make sure of is if the front & rear diff ratios are the same. Ours is a 4.083 Thanks!
