guys after some information for people that have run a 15mm-20mm spacer. i need atleast a 15mm spacer for my wheels but i don't wanna go too wide so 15mm will do and at the very most 20mm. i trial fitted a 25mm spacer and it loks like with the 25mm spacer that the nuts that hold the spacer onto the original hub are perfectly hidden within the spacer so mounting the wheel wont be any problem.

would like to know if its the same thing with 15mm-20mm spacers or will something protrude out of the face of the spacer? if yes how to u fix it? don't wana chop off my original studs.

let me know guys. pictures would be good too.

i had to fit 15 mm spacers to my 4stud to get bigger brakes.. had to angle grind old stufs off only way i found my rims would fit , just make sure u use a very strong lock tight and torque the nuts tight wat i did, held up alright for last 8 months

hope that helped muuch

have a look at your wheels most of them have gaps between the stud holes so if its just a couple of mm's then it will sit sweet.

You could shave them off with a grinder.

why dont you just measure how long your existing studs are?

Hey dude,

If your wheels have a recess in them that allows the extra stud length to sit in there then you will be fine, if not all you can do is grind them off.

To cover the whole stud you need to use a spacer that is 25mm or bigger. If you do cut the front studs its not too much of a drama to replace them in the future. It only takes about half an hour to do each side.

Good luck with it :thumbsup:

as mentioned, ur studs will protrude, and most wheels have space for this. my biggest concern would be the little amount of metal thats creating ur new hub, firstly its 15mm of alloy holding ur stud in, and less than 15mm for ur old studs to hold.

    • Don't even try to run it on the stock ECU if you're going to have the boost controller bring boost above ~10 psi. I've already told you that. If you use the Nistune ECU, you will need to CAREFULLY read the available documentation for Neo tuning, and read some threads on the Nistune forums, to discover the various things you have to do to prevent the ECU from going bananas when the boost is too high. The is a table associated with th boost sensor that must be modified to prevent it from shitting the bed. This is just one of the things that you will need to do to the tune in Nistune, because the Neo turbo ECU will be expecting to see a number of things (such as the TCS) that are not there, and you have to block the DTCs on those. It is totally not surprising to me that you are having the problems that you are, but the solutions to these problems have been known for >15 years. So just get it done.
    • Hi. Sry iam not a mechanic and iam not at the car atm so i dont know 100% but they told they measure those and even try to change those. AFM they have two. Coils are new a they have my old one too. Plugs too. ECU...we have 25 NEO stock and Nistune 25 NEO.   But i dont know if any one those could be the problem and why/if/what can cause this, Only thing they did not check is fuel...but that walbro 255 is new(like 1,5 years)... That fuel pressure gauge idk...but i let them know Any suggestions?   EDIT: how can they know if it is like you say he ECU pull power when it reaches a specific boost level that is too high? Tha car has boost controler
