Make your front track the same as the rear with these aluminium wheel spacers with locating rings. One carefull owner. Just like those in the picture (not actual photo) but painted stealth black. $90 posted. (May not be legal in some states ...up to you).

Hey buddy,

Do you know if its safe using these with the 4WD atessa system? I know running staggered wheels causes problems... have you run these on your car?

Cheers,

Adrian

I have been running these for six months with no problem. They make no difference to the rolling radius. The problem with staggered fitment is that although you can get the rolling radius close the difference in tyre profile can cause them to behave differently. With spacers you still have the same wheels and tyres front and rear. I needed spacers to get my 16in GTR track rims to clear the GTT brakes

and for my 17in road wheels it just looks better to have them the same width front and rear. You can see my car here (post 212):

Ok thanks for clarifying that for me - Ive recently put the R34GTT wheels on the stag and the offset is terrible, especially the front!

Im interested, how about $75 posted to NSW 2228?? :D

Can you please PM me your bank account or paypal details??

    • Hope you aren't too sore after that one, might take a day or 2 to notice yet and I guess it is a loooooong drive home. On the bright side, tube frame front end is a thing at superlap, right?

    • The chart of front pressure to rear pressure (with one being on the x axis and the other being on the y axis) is not a straight line on a typical proportioning valve. At lower pressures there is a straight line with one slope, and at higher pressures that changes to a lower slope. That creates a bend in the line at that pressure, called the knee point. If you do not change the proportionng as the pressure gets higher, you will suffer excessive pressure (at one end of the car or the other, depending on which way you look at the proportioning action) and then get lockups at that end. The HFM BM57, from my memory of previous discussions, is based on the BM57 from a different car (to a Skyline), with a different requirement for the location of the knee point and the distribution of pressure front to rear, and so is not a good choice for an upgrade on a Skyline. Here's a couple of links to some old posts, one from here, one from elsewhere. A lot of it pertains to adjustable prop valves, but the idea is the same. There are plenty of discussions on here about this issue from al the many years of people wanting a cheap/accessible option. https://grassrootsmotorsports.com/forum/grm/learn-me-brake-proportioning-valves/236880/page1/ https://grassrootsmotorsports.com/forum/grm/learn-me-brake-proportioning-valves/236880/page1/  
    • Yeah dunno why johhny posted that here with no context, just post on FB/insta bro where he put it up?  Laine had an off at T4 during Thurs prac, he's ok, car is less than perfect, they are done for the weekend, he can fill in the rest. Bando also binned it like 100m up the road.   
    • I feel there must have been a FB/insta post and the weekend did not start well at all I hope everyone is all okay
