hey guys i believe track is measured from the centre of the tyre, there for running crazy offset gives you wider track. otherwise i would just run 17x9 -20 offsets haha

and the 2inch oversize rule is longer its actually now no bigger then 10mm (i think) rolling diameter there for you can go from 15=20 but you have to run low enough profiles on the 20 tyres so overall its no more then 10mm in diam

cheers guys.

Just got a quote for a secondhand ECU. $350. that sounds way to rich for a standard comp.

yeah will be doing it all properly. If I do it right It 'may' save me the hassle if it happens again.

cheers Damo for the suspension.

Correct in both cases.

for your sake i would get r34 gtt ones. Im sure the R33 GTR ones have been made to handle the extra weight up front from the diff and other extra parts. The spring weight would of been made for that car.

i think r33 gtr suspension whacks onto r34 gtt! not too sure, but the standard ecu thing is fine! doesn't matter if you put the stock one in because you'll just run stock settings instead of a tuned one!
oh sweet, when i need new coilovers, im gonna buy r33 gtr ones :(

Nah, R33GTR suspension in an R34GTT is a very bad idea. Trust me I tried it. Whilst they physically fit, the weight of the car, and the weight distribution is dramatically different - so R33GTR coilovers in an R34GTT suck ass - trust me. I pulled them out, sold them, and bought the R34GTT SydneyKid Bilstein/Whiteline group buy.

    • Nah. You need 2x taps for anything that you cannot pass the tap all the way through. And even then, there's a point in response to the above which I will come back to. The 2x taps are 1x tapered for starting, and 1x plug tap for working to the bottom of blind holes. That block's port is effectively a blind hole from the perspective of the tap. The tapered tap/tapered thread response. You don't ever leave a female hole tapered. They are supposed to be parallel, hence the wide section of a tapered tap being parallel, the existince of plug taps, etc. The male is tapered so that it will eventually get too fat for the female thread, and yes, there is some risk if the tapped length of the female hole doesn't offer enough threads, that it will not lock up very nicely. But you can always buzz off the extra length on the male thread, and the tape is very good at adding bulk to the joint.
    • Nice....looking forward to that update
    • Neg, the top one is actually for the front. The sizes are 18x10.5 +18 and 18x11 +32.   I measured many times but I'm sure I'll have problems as this is the thread for problems.
    • Just one thing; tapping tapered threads is tricky. Taps are always tapered and you would generally run it as far as you can, but with a tapered thread you have to stop much sooner otherwise the wide part of the taper will run in too far and you will have to thread the sensor in too far too as well (possible that it will never make a good seal) BTW nice wide wheels, I guess the top one is for the back!
    • Welp, good to know. Will have to wait awhile until steady hands with drills and taps are available. In other news, these just arrived! I will weigh them for posterity. Edit: 11kg each (or 10.9/11.1 depending on what my scale decides over multiple tests, the 18x11 don't seem to weigh noticeably any more than 10.5)
