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.

      R32 GTS (RB20DE) Injectors Replacement

      By MBS206 · Posted

      If as it's stalling, the fuel pressure rises, it's saying there's less vacuum in the intake manifold. This is pretty typical of an engine that is slowing down.   While typically is agree it sounds fuel related, it really sounds fuel/air mixture related. Since the whole system has been refurbished, including injectors, pump, etc, it's likely we've altered how well the system is delivering fuel. If someone before you has messed with the IACV because it needed fiddling with as the fuel system was dieing out, we need to readjust it back. Getting things back to factory spec everywhere, is what's going to help the entire system. So if it idles at 400rpm with no IACV, that needs raising. Getting factory air flow back to normal will help us get everything back in spec, and likely help chase down any other issues. Back on IACV, if the base idle (no IACV plugged in) is too far out, it's a lot harder for the ECU to control idle. The IACV duty cycle causes non linear variations in reality. When I've tuned the idle valves in the past, you need to keep it in a relatively narrow window on aftermarket ecus to stop them doing wild dances. It also means if your base idle is too low, the valve needs to open too much, and then the smallest % change ends up being a huge variation.

      I guess one thing that might be wrong is the manifold pressure.  It is a constant -5.9 and never moves even under 100% throttle and load.  I would expect it to atleast go to 0 correct?  It's doing this with the OEM MAP as well as the ECU vacuum sensor. When trying to tune the base map under load the crosshairs only climb vertically with RPM, but always in the -5.9 column.

      AHHHH gotchaa, I'll do that once I am home again. I tried doing the harness with the multimeter but it seems the car needed a jump, there was no power when it was in the "ON" position. Not sure if I should use car battery jump starter or if its because the stuff that has been disconnect the car just does send power.

      As far as I can tell I have everything properly set in the Haltech software for engine size, injector data, all sensors seem to be reporting proper numbers.  If I change any injector details it doesnt run right.    Changing the base map is having the biggest change in response, im not sure how people are saying it doesnt really matter.  I'm guessing under normal conditions the ECU is able to self adjust and keep everything smooth.   Right now my best performance is happening by lowering the base map just enough to where the ECU us doing short term cut of about 45% to reach the target Lambda of 14.7.  That way when I start putting load on it still has high enough fuel map to not be so lean.  After 2500 rpm I raised the base map to what would be really rich at no load, but still helps with the lean spots on load.  I figure I don't have much reason to be above 2500rpm with no load.  When watching other videos it seems their target is reached much faster than mine.  Mine takes forever to adjust and reach the target. My next few days will be spent making sure timing is good, it was running fine before doing the ECU and DBW swap, but want to verify.  I'll also probably swap in the new injectors I bought as well as a walbro 255 pump.

      spot the stagea

      It would be different if the sealant hadn't started to peel up with gaps in the glue about ~6cm and bigger in some areas. I would much prefer not having to do the work take them off the car . However, the filler the owner put in the roof rack mount cavities has shrunk and begun to crack on the rail delete panels. I cant trust that to hold off moisture ingress especially where I live. Not only that but I have faded paint on as well as on either side of these panels, so they would need to come off to give the roofline a proper respray. My goal is to get in there and put a healthy amount of epoxy instead of panel filler/bog and potentially skin with carbon fiber. I have 2 spare rolls from an old motorcycle fairing project from a few years back and I think it'd be a nice touch on a black stag.  I've seen some threads where people replace their roof rack delete with a welded in sheet metal part. But has anyone re-worked the roof rails themselves? It seems like there is a lot of volume there to add in some threads and maybe a keyway for a quick(er) release roof rack system. Not afraid to mill something out if I have to. It would be cool to have a cross bar only setup. That way I can keep the sleek roofline that would accept a couple bolts to gain back that extra utility  3D print some snazzy covers to hide the threaded section to be thorough and keep things covered when not using the rack.
