Finally found a "more" suitable set. 19 x 8.5 +5 dish 80mm front and 19 x 9.5 +12 dish 86mm rear. I also put a deposit down. Supplier assured that i need rolled guards 5-10mm but nothing too major. Im abit uneasy the more i look at the offsets though. Any insight as to what im in for? Any help muc appreciated

LOL u will more than likely need flared guards and a respray once your paint cracks, unless you are planning for widebody forget it

i have spoken to a few guys that flare/roll guards. 5-10mm flaring is not a issue. I have seen cars with similar offset and even wider rims then mine aswell. What tyre size do you guys recommend as i need to order them soon?

buddy the offsets are what is going to make it difficult for you not the widths. you need rims that have a +30 offset or simillar.

the offsets that u sre suggesting are ment for gtrs

Don't listen to these pussy's, the rims will fit fine. On the front you'll only need to roll the guards, on the rear just roll guards with a light flare. On the front just run a 215 tyre (unsure what profile for 19" rims) and on the rear run a 235 (or a 225 would be fine also). Maybe get some adjustable camber arms for the rear while your at it so you can pull a bit of the negative camber from the rears and then flare the rear guards to suit.

Will look pretty tough. :P

Good luck Drgnball. I hope you checked the front wheels are at least standard disk type so they clear the GTT front brakes. Hope whoever you have pulling your guards out do a good job and don't crack your paint. Post up pics once you are done...and don't let us spot these wheels on the For Sale forum coz they don't fit :)

      Find out what RPM it was idling at with the IACV unplugged. It's very weird that the rpm didn't change at all, and then it stalled. When it stalls is it nearly like a switch off, like you've turned the engine off? Or is it more stutters and sputters and coughs to death over a few seconds? Or does the RPM just slowly keep going down and down? Have you done a test of trying to start it with the AFM unplugged? Does it still die?     If you Follow Josh's advice on using Nistune to check the voltages (which is a perfect method!) if you see anything out of wack voltage wise, THEN get the multimeter out and read the voltage directly at the sensor. If the two vary, then you're now looking for a wiring issue vs a sensor issue. So be aware, what the ECU sees, may not be what the sensor is actually saying too...

      You very likely need to get it on a dyno and tune it. My assumption is, you've got an RB25DET tune in it, which has a different manifold, different injectors, and different cams as a minimum. What O2 sensor are you running?   When you say it runs extremely rich from idle all the way to redline, is this just free revving it you see that?

      I seem to the be only person that is using a Haltech 2500 on an NA motor, I've installed a Bosch DBW throttle body to the OEM intake manifold and am having problems maintaining AFR even with the wideband o2.  It will run extremely rich at idle and up to redline, but under load it will go extremely lean in the 20s and i'm essentially having to rev it over 4k and feather the clutch to get it up to speed.  I've read a few other threads of about the butterfly, it seems removing the vacuum to it is supposed to have it remain open, i've noticed no difference under 4k with the vacuum line to it plugged.  I'm hoping someone here has had luck using the NA manifold with Haltech, and if they happen to have a tune for it.
