Will The Weight Of Wheels Make A Difference On 375 Rwkw?

You'd be suprised what fits with a bit of tyre stretch and dynamic camber.

If your happy with the rims thats all that matters, I just wonder why you bothered asking when you had already made your mind up.

he has 375rwkw, i highly doubt he wants to use camber to make wheels fit...

you could fit them with + camber and get more traction if you wanted... just need the guards worked a bit

And you think by strecthing my tyres I am going to get my power to the ground? What's the purpose of putting 245 on a 10 rim just to merely make it fit under the guard when my car will spinning out everywhere...??

I would rather get a proper offset that suits MY application, something that appeals to me, and use something that I'll be able to get the power to the ground with thick rubber.

I am not in it for the show mate i.e. to see how far I can stretch my tyre on a 10 inch rim, I'll leave that task to the show pony girlies like yourself.

Pull your head in chief, I said that in response to your comment saying they wouldn't fit. I never suggested it was the way to go for you.

You obviously missed it so I'll say it again.

As for show ponies, you have no f*king idea :)

Fella, you knew well that I have 375 rwkw, so why the f**k would you say in "response" to my comment, to stretch my tyre and place alot of neg camber on to make it fit.

If you were smart enough, you wouldn't have said that in the first place as you should know it wouldn't suit my application.

I am not going to get into this fruitless conversation with you as it is heading no where, just think again before you say dumb shit like "You'd be suprised what fits with a bit of tyre stretch and dynamic camber" when I have 375 rwkw.

As I said, someone PLEASE on here show me a 18 x 10 +22 wheel on the rear of their r33 GTS skyline without major guard work and reasonable tyres for the wheel, thats lowered.

I find it hilarious that your getting pissy about someone making a passing comment about wheel fitment when your fitting the cheapest wheel and rubber combo you can find. If it were really so important maybe you'd take some of the advice given and put some decent rubber and wheels under the car.

This is the last thing I'm going to say. If you ask for advice then hang shit on everyone giving it to you perhaps think again why you started the thread in the first place. End of the day its your car, but dont expect everyone to pat you on the back and agree with you.

What, I should take your advice and put on 18 x 10 +22 rims that won't fit on my car without major guard work.... No and wait... to make it fit, put tyres that are too narrow for my application so my car will spin out everywhere....???

Some really good advice that you put forth... :banana:

And I never said I was going to place cheap rubber on my vehicle, why are you trying to place shit in other peoples mouths?

And I did take peoples advice on this forum, originally, I was going to buy Starcorp Impul wheels that weighed in at 16kg (yes very heavy I know).

People told me that this was too heavy, so I got wheels that weighed in at around 11-12kg, and they were something I could afford... so please stop talking rubbish....

God Bless.

      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.
