whats the go with the Crappy Spare wheel wont even fit over my brakes on my Type-M R32 GTST

WHats the point in a space saver wheel if it wont fit over the brakes.

anyone else have this problem...is it worth getting some spacers or something cos if i break down im stuffed...im carrying around extra weight for nothing.

This is not good... Umm anyway, apparently 16inch falcon pursuit rims will fit, AND cover the brakes. Im looking at getting one as a spare for my car, as I really dont like the idea of a space saver.

Yeah, last time i got a slow leak i used tyre weld or something which went well for a couple of weeks until i got new tyres. Problem is it won't fix a tear in the side wall.

You need to change a wheel front to back to use a space saver, i found that out on my old rx7.

yeah that sounds good...the space saver is useless....it didnt fit on the rear either...well i didnt want to forse it on cos i had just painted the brake calipers

Thats pretty rooted then. I had always assumed it'd fit the rear at the very least. Time to turf it in the name of weight reduction :P

Or put it on backwards for that deep dish look

hawker05.. the space savers fit on both front and back, so you've got one from another car... as for burn outs, I've seena few people use them and that actually last quite a long time.. hard rubber I guess...

Fit two on the back and go for a drive, quite entertaining, well, when you have 2x Skyline ones that fit...

    • HFM BM57 has a "bad" knee point, IIRC. It's not the same thing as the later R chassis MC.
    • The ATTESSA is functionally identical to R34; there were a bunch of JDM models that continued ATTESSA including Fuga/Q70, Skyline/Q50, Cima etc as an option. All with Auto only and I think mostly for snow regions. AFAIK there were no AWD VR30DDTT sold in Australia - it is on my to do list to check regs for racing a LHD car in Targa/ATR/AASA/CAMS events because if I can get the auto to work it would be interesting to run a 4wd car The Ecuteck TCM tuning is the same model as their ECU tuning, they already have it for R35 and Dose's favourite, BMW. You buy "points" to allow your computer to be tuned, buy either a bluetooth (phone app) or bluetooth+USB+Key (phone and PC) dongle, and pay for a tune that will be locked to your tuner ( ). You can also access the tuning software yourself but 1. it is mega expensive and 2. these computers have a billion parameters that intersect, so how could you ever spend enough time on it to get a decent result.
    • Or, is it a case of what it is like owning an R series Skyline? NFI what the previous owner has done or fiddled with... Ha ha ha After reading through this thread, I went on a bit of a research about the Q50/Q60. Now I'm quite intrigued by them! Is the AWD in them more like a WRX where it's always AWD, or is it more like the ATTESSA in the GTRs? By the sound of this TCU tuning, this sounds like a case of someone has made some real software for it, and you just need the right piece of hardware, and then you license that specific vehicle/TCU. Or is this a case of the software will be really expensive so only a few tuners have it, and you still have to pay a license per vehicle?
    • By popular demand.. it was a coil. Got my hands on 1 new OEM coil, replaced with the one that made the less noise difference when I unplugged it while the car was running and started the car up. No stutter and the engine light was gone. I guess I’ll buy the other 5 they have lol
    • No, code 21 is very straightforward. It can only be the things described in that diagnostic flow. In fact it has no way of knowing that the spark plug resistance is out of spec.
