like the wheels.

i agree with most about the rear width though.. especially if you have gtr guards.

i run a staggered set of 8.5 at the front and 9.5 at the rear. which sit flush in line with the gtst guards. (hard to tell in the pic)

ha and yes... its finally getting lowered soon. :cheers:

why would you want to hide the fact that your car is a gtst??

gtr kit and badges will neva make it the real thing,

Would you rather have a GTST or a GTR? I never said it was the real thing and i dont claim to own a GTR so i dont see what the problem is. If i hadnt of said it was a GTST then i doubt anyone would of said nething...

plus if u look closely u can see it had gtst seats :cheers:

sorry to say, but for 3.1k u could have gotten some better jap rims

doesnt look too bad tho

Sorry to say that you cant. All the rays n works etc are like $450+ a wheel and then ive still gotta buy tyres...

The only way a set of Jap rims in the same size would come in at a comparable cost would be to put some cheap, nasty tyres on them. Sort of defeats the purpose of buying the good stuff in the first place.

Theres a lot to be said about people who buy quality rims and then wrap them in Nankangs or similar. :D

Yes i have a set of non Jap rims but they are wrapped in some descent rubber, when your forking out between $350 - $400 per tyre, a tyre and rim package can add up real quick as i'm sure most of you already know..............

Looks good mate, your car, your choice, thats the modifiers way. :D

      Yeh I think i'll message an old contact i had for ages that manages his own tyre shop now.. n tell him what i want n work with him before ordering..  Got this 17x9 +30 Driftteks on 245/45/17 PSR Drag Radials on the rear.. They fit well - for your reference in future - Rear guards  have been lipped in & minimal to non flaring of the rear Gaurds.

      If only it were that easy! I also needed to remove seats, shocks, brake calipers, send my car through a fence, and use measuring and ended up guessing because I didn't remove seats, shocks and brake calipers. It can be hard sometimes Can be a little more complex than 'just measure' if you want to truly measure the entire wheel through all of it's suspension travel. But if you aren't going for every last mm then yeah, you can check the space you currently have and guesstimate.

      If you own a car, and it has wheels on it, and you know the offset of those wheels, and you have a measuring device, you have everything you need to work out if other wheels will fit.

      MAJOR FUEL ISSUES 25det neo r32

      By MBS206 · Posted

      Put a clamp on your return line. I have a feeling it's sucking air, and introducing bubbles to your fuel. With a lot of fuel, less problematic. I'd honestly be redoing all the lines in the tank and clamps on everything.   Also, you've given two different answers to the same question: Asked if being followed by the police you could get down to use the whole tank, you said yes you could, so long as you keep off boost. However, you then followed this up that free revving, it would also cause the issues. I'm doubting free revving is enough to make any noticeable boost on what is likely a decent sized turbo.   So now I have to ask, can you actually drive it lightly and use all the fuel, or does it break up even free revving? Also, have you put a fuel pressure gauge on it? Can you hear the pump change noise at all when you're having this issue?
