I'm looking at a set of Volk GT-N wheels with the following attributes. Does anyone know if they will fit nicely on R34 GTT coupe without any modification to the guardes or anything else? Also should the +30 offset goes in front or rear? I was under the impression that less offset gives more dish which is not what I can see from below, is this right? I was quoted around 2k for the set is this a reasonable price?

18x8 +30 (56mm dish)

18x8 +36 (63mm dish)

Rubber: DNA 235/40/18

Thanks

They'd fit alright but wouldn't look "great" (The fitement that is, its a sexy wheel). They would sit inside the guards burt you'd have no clearence issues (I'm running wider wheels and lower offsets on my R34 opn coilovers with bog standard guards, un-rolled). 2k might be a bit much purely because the sizes and offsets aren't ideal for your car, but then again better then some Knob Jane Homo-spec wheels. If you like them get them. My valuation (private sale) $1.5k - $2k

Also, run the higher offset on the front as your rear guards are wider :)

I really like these wheels and it seems very hard to find them nowadays because it's discontinued. This is the only set that I come across that appeared to be the most suitable ones for GTT. But you guys are right the size is still not ideal... I double check if the back is not 9inch.

I've read from another post that someone suggested R34 GTT can fit:

Front: 18 x 8 +30 - +36

Rear: 18 x 9 +32 - +38

Is this correct? Obviously the narrower and/or higher offset will give more clearance but look less "great"?

edit, i just worked out where you are buying those wheels, and he has WAAAY better rims for your car!

True that! But I really like those patterns and colours and it falls into my price range. I think it will look greate if it has the right width and offsets.... :blink:

Volk GT-N

18x9 +24

18x10 +30

245/40 275/40 ~60%

$2500 (ETA FEB)

these would need some rolling but probably not a flare, and would fit on a GTT veeeeeeeery nicely if you are willing to mod the guards just a lil... :D

Nice choice of rims! I wish I didnt sell my old set! absolutely love em... $2k is a good price too.

These were on my old gtst.. might give you a bit of idea of fitment.

18X8 front +36, will need a 10mm spacer to fit over an r33 front caliper might be the same for the R34?

18X9 rear +38,

      7 Speed Auto transmission fluid change (Skyline, Q50, Q60, Fuga, Q70, A62 Titan and probably heaps of others including Navara...)

      I thought I'd do a write up on an auto transmission fluid change for a the nissan 7 speed Automatic. At some stage the genius engineers decided that the fluid in the trans was "for the life of the transmission", (which seems kind of self supporting to me) and removed the dip stick and fill tube (funnily enough there is still a casting for it). Anyway, for this job you do need 2 specialist tools in addition to regular hand tools, jack and good chassis stands. You need a way to pump fluid up to the transmission; I got one of these but there are plenty of other options: https://www.ebay.com.au/itm/364584087070 Don't trust the generic listing though, it does not come with the required adapter for the Nissan 7 Speed. You need one of these, can't do the job without it: https://navarapart.com.au/product/genuine-nissan-patrol-y62-d23-np300-navara-re7-dipstick-fill-connector1 You need a heap of compatible transmission oil. Could be Nissan, could be anything else rated for Nissan Matic S. You need at least 10 litres, I had 15 to give it a better flush... Also, you need some biiig oil catch trays, at least one of these, or bigger if possible (volume was fine, size was very marginal): https://autobarn.com.au/ab/Autobarn-Category/Tools-%26-Garage/Specialty-Tools/Oil-Service/Garage-Tough-Oil-Drain-Pan-Black-16L---GT1068/p/TO03191 Finally, a measuring jug is very useful if your pump does not have volumes marked on it, I got a 6l one: https://www.repco.com.au/oils-fluids/fluid-accessories/measuring-jugs/penrite-measuring-jug-6l-pmj006/p/A5322648 Oh, and gloves.....this stuff is horrible (not as bad as diff oil, but getting there) ....First, jack up your car.....

      So I mentioned the apprentice, @LachyK helped take the bonnet off. We just undid the nuts on the hinges and unclipped the gas struts, then pulled the bonnet back a little as the front was catching on the front bar.  I had a good look at everything today and have removed the rams, repaired/reset the hinges and bolted it back together like it never happened. I'll do a separate write up on the repair, and I also removed the poppers from the Fuga today too to save grief down the road.....as said above it is at least $5k to repair retail. I'm also happier about my ability to prepare a race car, and less happy about Nis-nault's engineering (I can hear @GTSBoy sAfrican Americaning) because the top hose of the radiator didn't slip off.......it snapped clean off. By practice I put the hose clamp hard up against the flare on a neck to make it least likely to ever move (thanks @Neil!). I guess that puts a little more pressure on the end of the pipe as it is further away from the rad, but still, that is pretty shit. I've put it back on for now as there was a fair bit of neck still there, but obviously there is no lip on the neck any more so I don't think I'll track it again until I have a new rad. Speaking of which....more research required. It looks like Koyo makes a standard size radiator in ally which I'll grab in the meantime, but I really want something thicker so might have to go custom in the medium term (ouch) Coolant still needs a refill and I have the pressure tester on it over night, but other than a wash down of the engine bay it seems alright. And @MBS206 noted something noisy on the front of the engine and I think I agree....time for a new accessory belt and tensioners I think.

      our good friends at nismo make a diff for it, I have one (and a spare housing to put the centre in) on the way. https://www.nismo.co.jp/products/web_catalogue/lsd/mechanical_lsd_v37.html AMS also make a helical one, but I prefer mechanical for track use in 2wd (I do run a quaife in the front, but not rear of the R32)
