After another upgrade on the GTR my old wheels no longer fit.

I now has floating 380mm front and 355mm rears with fairly slim calipers but I now only have one set of 18's that clear the caliper. Volk evolution III's

So question is who has a set of wheels over brakes of a similar size and what brand/make are they??

I dont want to be taking the car around the country side trying second hand wheels on it for the next 3 months. I want to buy a second set and know they will fit.

So far I know Work XD9's dont fit, buddy club P1's are close to fitting, R34 GTR wheels have no hope nore do the Uras NS1 things.

After speaking with Eugene aparently TE37's will fit but there is nothing around atm that id be willing to bash around a race track with.

I dont want imaculate ones as im only going to wreck them but if nothing comes up I may have to do just that.

Thats what Eug said as well.

The Uras ones come close but they are just slightly too small to accomodate the caliper im using. P1's would fit if I took 3-4mm off the end radius of the caliper but im trying to avoid that if possible.

Interesting thread as I am trying to find the largest possible diamter disc/caliper wheel combo for 17s. Would there be much difference between the profile/height of a Motorsport Alcon/Brembo caliper to say your OEM brembo off a GTR?

I'm not sure about now but V8SC used/do? to run a 375mm front disc with 17s (obviously purpose built centre lock wheels).

Yeah I have 375mm rotors wit alcon calipers and have the same issue.

TE37's and LMGT4's are the only things I've found that fit.

Volk Challenge, CE28's, a couple of sets of different Enkies and Stock R34 GTR rims definitely don't fit!

Intersting to see.

We ran 375mm V8 Supercar floating rotors on the 34 last year under 34 GTR wheels, no issues. Custom caliper though.... but I didn't really see where the dimensions of the caliper really differed from, say, an Alcon.

Any more progress with this 380mm disc and caliper clearance issue?? Got a few quiries of my own regarding this issue!

Can anyone give details about or where to find inner rim diameters for these wheels (particually the LM-GT4 and TE-37)

Has anyone here fitted 380mm brake rotor discs with 18's? Which calipers were used? Wheels? etc.

Would 380mm brake rotor discs and 6 pot alcon fit a 19" Nismo LMGT4?

Any feedback would be great, cheers.

      The wiring diagram for the R33 RB25 is freely available, and is essentially the same same as most other RBs (just with differences as to which pin # does which job). To get the ECU to power up, you just need to provide power to the ECCS relay, and have the other power feeds that come in from the top left of the wiring diagram (wrt the ECU) that give perma power to the fuel pump relay, the ECU itself, etc etc, all connected. When you put power on all these it will just come to life. It's pretty clear from the diagram what needs to happen. Just follow the lines from the 12V + supply stuff in the top left over towards the ECU. I've even posted snips of such diagrams (not for vanilla 25, I think for Neo and 26) to various threads here in the last few months, talking about what it takes to get the fuel pump and FPCM up and going. Search these up and they will help get you started on doing the same with the vanilla 25 diagram. Hell, for all I know, I've done the same with that one in years past and have forgotten.

      Yep...so unless someone posts up the answer you will need to probe from the ECU connector to the dash plug with a multi meter in continuity mode to trace the wires.  Note the ECU has multiple - and + (and across different key settings - Battery, IGN and Start) and most likely the power is fed from the connector(s) that is normally near the left hand headlight.

      Thanks Duncan, I am actually just trying to get the Rb turning and running with the RB25DET S2 original loom itself  I am just trying to get it going outside the body and not thinking about the S15 or trying to match anything to the S15 loom at all I am only trying to see if anyone has done this and what pin they found to be the ignition trigger and ECU+/- on the dash connector, that's about it. Thanks

      M35 VQ25DET starter motor

      By iain_ST44GA · Posted

      Hi Guys, Does anyone know any aftermarket part numbers for a starter motor to suit the VQ25DET? I can find lots of alternative part number for the VQ35DE, which I assume would fit, but there is a lot of conflicting information out there. Thanks..

      I don't understand how this hasn't boiled down to - Upgrade the turbo when you have everything required. ECU, injectors, fuel pump, turbo, etc. Do it all at once.  If you don't have everything required, just enjoy the car as it is and keep saving up your pennies.
