I have a 1996 series II R33 skyline (turbo) and it has spent almost 10 weeks at 2 or 3 different mechanics in town to no avail. The car will idle hunt...rev up & down irratically...wont sit on 1000rpm and pure like a kitten unless cold or you sit there and be patient and by luck get it to idle normally. The car stalls at any gear change after its warmed up. It also has nothing from 4000rpm onwards...but from idle to 4000rpm its a rocket...coil problem? AFM has been replaced and the engine is a tank...all tests have been done...compression etc and the mechanics told me that the engine and its components are perfect...the car more or less is a tank a perfect import.....i bought a new Garrett turbo 340hp....car has all other normal mods...run on stock boost. the mechanics have swapped computers with a 32....and all other components. The car was fine til the stock turbo blew which was fine...then upgraded to some monsta 600hp turbo which then was faulty....have bitten the bullet and bought a quality garret turbo run off the stocko manifold. have no ide what to do next....my options are limited.....mechanics have checked everything possible....it has to be something small which i may never find which could cost me a great car.....so has anyone had this before or know what to do next? otherwise my r33 will be used for parts.....

      R34 Gtt Wheel Offset Advice

      By Peeeeetaaah · Posted

      Hey guys, sorry i have been researching for a few months and absolutely cannot wrap my head around this. I am about to order some rims to fit my R34 Gtt with coilovers My original plan was to order Rota grid R in 18x8.5 +30 235 40 R18 Fronts 18x9.5 +35 255 35 r18 rears But then the thought in my head said this isnt aggressive enough. I want the most concave spokes i can get without too much of poke and scrubbing   So my thoughts now is  18x8.5 +25 18x9.5 +30   My question is will this be the most aggressive i could get it without any guard rolling and does the type of rim style affect the offset / size.   Thanks everyone.

      Lower parts are there. On passenger seat, bright yellow bit is the release mount. On drivers, bright yellow bit is the lower buckle for the other side. My bet is lowers are tucked out of the way as much as possible for visuals.

      I'm guessing its a 4 point harness, 3 of the 4 belts are visible. I'm guessing the hidden belt is tucked down between the seat and door.

      Given the absence of lower parts, I'd suggest that they are just draped over the backrest for aesthetics in the photo.

      What do the harnesses mount to?
