I ran.. I can't remember if it was 225 or 215. Pretty sure it was 215 all around, slammed to the floor on standard front guards and it was fine

The rears had heaps of clearance but I had the inner lip on the rear guards rolled prior to R33 GTR wheels going on

How different is the offset? I'm running 17x7.5 +40 with 235/45 tyres and no rubbing on the back, 225/45 on the front no rubbing either.

I have been contemplating getting some 33gtr rims but if I can't run at least 235 tyres then I won't bother..

its +30 , you cant run 235 on the front im pretty sure unless you do guards work (which i didnt wanted to at this moment) ..

im gonna run 235 on the rear at least but my guards will be rolled..

any particular reason why you wont bother running anything lower than 235?

Obviously he doesnt like stretching tyres if he is running a 235 on a 7.5inch wide wheel. I have 225 on 8inch and they arent strected at all.

Thats it im rolling the rear guards , as my suspension being bit soft.. so if i roll the rear guards will it guarantee that with 235/45 will not scrape/hit?

i cant guarentee shit, every car is different, but chances are it will.

Car was damaged prior to me purchasing it, lots of damage above and below the waterline. Chassis damage, wheel lips buckled and chaffed, wiring by monkeys with brain removed, rust, graffiti.. you name it, shouldn't have bought it.. Priced up replacements considering they are sold here in aus, not jap rims, $2400 for the set. Might look into getting them repaired.

they will probably scrap eventually, just depends whether ur suspension will compress enough.

just roll ur guard and be done with it, dont know why people even bother with standard gaurds any more.

are you referring to both front and rear? or just rear ?

both, i found my 17x9 +30 with 235's just scraped at the rear, never at the front, although i think thats to do with suspension as my 17x9 +16's with 235's never scraped either and they were mexican up front.

      I wasn’t able to replicate the sound anymore. It was a one time sound so maybe it was just coincidence but it was like small pebbles being dropped in a coke can.   should I try cleaning the MAF? It could be it’s functioning but dirty? I don’t know.

      Update 4: Hi all. The car drives again! Haven't driven for long, only to store it in the garage again, but the test drive was successful. The coolant and oil leaks seem to be fixed for now. Temps on the engine were also very good, while moving I never even saw 80C water during the approx. 30 minute drive. Ate up all the coolant in the reservoir though so will have to fill that even more when I go to the car next time. One thing that pisses me off is that the RPM gauge is still f**ked, I even resoldered the board twice and used copper paste on the silly screws that are used as connections. Next time I take it out I'll take apart the board and fit new components, I'll see if I can get a replacement IC for it.  I have an appointment set for 22nd of September for the engine tune to 370hp. Alignment also still needs to be done. My hope is that I can get all the legal stuff over with by the end of this season. Anyone of you have advice regarding intercoolers? Currently there is an APEXI core fitted, one of those weird hybrid ones, 600x270x76. I don't think it's bad but it's not new and now I still have the chance to change it now to legally include it in the paperwork. Only issue is that the only options that would arrive in time are a HKS Type R intercooler or generic Ebay spec intercoolers comparable to a JustJap one. Ideally I'd order a Plazmaman but it takes over a month to receive which would mean making the car legal has to wait until next season. Would love to hear some input on this. Same story for my injectors, the previous owner was a nunce and put ID 1050x on the engine. They work but are obviously not ideal at "normal" power levels. But I don't see a reason to change them unless the tuner says it's necessary. I read online before buying a different exhaust that the top secret style rear diffusers won't fit due to the size of the rear resonators. My buddy and I made it work by slightly "adjusting the shape" of the mounting bracket and making some spacers out of 3d print for the mounting bolts. Fits like a charm. Just putting this here in case someone has this problem. Even the hefty HKS Silent Hi Power rear can fits without hitting anything.

      ECU sees many times the speed than speedo does (R34 swap)

      It's needed for rolling idle up, and I think it is a decider on VCT also.

      I mean, not really. Link ECU's can absolutely still have errors from the ECU thinking it's getting a sensor it's not expecting. I would imagine the speed at the ECU level in Nistune does absolutely nothing anyway? I assume the ECU does not do any fancy TC stuff with regards to front+rear wheel speed or anything of that like anyway. Someone who uses Nistune may be more fluent in it.
