18's definitely. 19's in that style would look too big in my opinion.

18's would be lighter, therefore car will be slightly faster. 18's would have cheaper tyres, therefore more money in the bank for other modifications.

The clearing of the calipers will depend on the spoke design. You can't rely on the offset to clear it.

Check out the wheel offset thread Sydneykid made. It's pinned so you can't miss it.

There should be a thread recently made in the suspension section or cosmetic section about what you want as well.

You haven't said what you want to use the car for at any point. If you only want to use it on the street, and want it to look good, you can go 19's, but I reckon its too big anyway. If you are planning to do any form of motorsport, 18's would be a lot better. Remember, every mod should suit your application.

the use would be daily drive, i think im going 18's, nicer drive, and suits the car more than most 19's (IMO) . also my dad rekons r33's were made when 19's didnt even exist or used much and it dosnt suit the car (thats just one persons oppionion dont take it to heart) when you see like an old hk monaro in 20's it dosnt look right, coz that car was brought out with like 13's

    • I can see between the water jacket and cyl 3 there wasn't a hard line of combustion gas. It certainly appears that the issue is coming from there. Yes, checked the tension. All at 100ft lbs where I set them 5 years ago. These blocks can crack but generally when they have been over bored. Mine is only 0.5mm oversize at 89.5mm. They break between cylinders around the 91mm mark. No sign of that with mine. My gut feeling is the head gasket lifted a while back when the studs stretched and i bandaided it by retorquing the studs. It's finally let go.
    • My Nismo 1.5 churps a bit on reverse turns when cold, but besides that feels like a stock diff.
    • Yes, but, I paid cash and I'm pretty sure the receipt was in the bin 10 minutes after I got home Note to self, keep all receipts
    • Bunnings would have just handed you your money back on that one!
    • So, version 4 intake is on its way I was looking at these a while ago but at around $200 or more it was a little pricey for something that might not work, but, I had it in my watch list, but, I got a message saying it was on special, and I had a code thingie to use, it eventually came in at $120 delivered, so BAM, BUY NOW.....LOL I'll need to have a look when it arrives but I feel it will "look" better than what I currently have, as it comes with a PCV fitting, so I will be able to get rid of the alloy pipe that goes to the throttle body with the PCV fitting  Well, that's what the voices in my head are telling me  Oh, and this happened today Yeap, it was a Trojan, and it was cheap, so I headed back to the hardware store and actually spent a little bit more on a heavy duty,  one that was actually recommended by a plumber mate, a Cyclone one with a fibreglass handle that is actually rated for clay The broken shovel will eventually be "modified" into a short handle shovel
