arent 34 guards bigger then 33?
barely, but that is talking bout gtst vs gtt. r33 gtr guards are bigger than gtt and about on par with r34gtr

yeah gtt guards to 33 gtr guards we are talking bout

they'll look hot, but they won't be flush.

ah fuck it, you'll probably never lower your car to epic stance anyways, so nobody will notice that they're 7mm further in than they should be.

he better be giving away a free reacharound with em at $3700 tho. or at least offer to cup your balls for a solid 5 mins.

haha

that said 19x9.5" +11 > 18x10 +15

more clearance from struts, larger diameter.

If you're not gonna fit them spot on, then at least get the ones that are gonna look nicest. 19" GTC's look way nicer than 18" ones... dunno why, maybe cos they look nicer in larger diameter on 350Z's.

I just re-read your original post, they're both 9.5" wide so you should be fine cos its only the offset that's different. Thought you said 9 and 9.5 for some reason.

ah ok so those 19s from import monster will be completly 100% fine the +11 and +21? cool that means i get a choice ;)

i know that Matts will probably be in better nick thats the only issue but his are expensive

Funky, anything wrong with my fitment? ;)

This is the look ill try and achieve but this is how it looks when im entering my driveway on an angle. So the body has shifted over the wheel.

Should I downgrade to 8inch +30's or try to force fit my 9inch +30's with 255's lol

sick of auto.

if your sick of auto then maybe you should buy my car its not entirely auto, its tiptronic as well, with a shift kit. ;)

so buy it lol, i need it gone to make room for my new and better car.

I'd thought Fujitsubo would sound a lot more quiet..?

fujitsubo make about 4 different types of exhausts, only the Legalis (or Regalis in japlish) is quiet IMHO.

Ah yeah, true that and the quiet ones would be the Oval shape mufflers yeah...

I keep remembering Juliette's exhaust on her R34 GTT and it's pretty much silent.

:blink:

    • Next, remove the upper and lower radiator hoses, both are held with a spring clamp. While you are under there, tackle the Auto Trans cooler lines.  Again both are held on with spring clamps, and as mentioned above you should cap them on the radiator side with an 8mm cap, and on the car side loop them with a length of 8mm pipe - this will stop you losing a dangerous amount of AT fluid during the rest of the job If you've been meaning to add a sender for AT trans temp, this is a great time to do it; put a sender fitting into the passenger side line as that is the inlet to the cooler/radiator.
    • Next you need to remove the intake duct (as with pretty much every job on these cars), it is a series of clips you gently remove with a flat bladed screwdriver. They do get brittle with time and can break, and I have not found a decent quality aftermarket one that fits (they are all too soft or flimsy and don't last either) but the nissan ones are a couple of bucks each (ouch).  Once the clips are off (either 8 or 10, I didn't check) you lift the intake duct out and will see the reservoirs Undo the line into the radiator side cap (some bent needle nosed piers are awesome for spring clamps) and then remove the 4x 10m nuts that hold both in place.  I didn't get these pics, but remove the line under the radiator reservoir (spring clamp again) then remove that reservoir. Then you can get at the intake reservoir, same thing, spring clamp underneath then remove it. BTW This is a great time to put in a larger (+70%) combined reservoir that AMS makes..... https://www.amsperformance.com/product/q50-q60-red-alpha-coolant-expansion-tank/ They also make an Infiniti branded and part# version if that is your thing
    • To drain the Intake Heat Exchanger, there is a crappy drain plug in front of the driver's side front tyre: You should use the largest headed phillips screwdriver you had, and in my case I needed vice grips on the hose above as the plug was tight (tighter than it needed to be, since it has an o-ring seal).  After you have a tray down and open the drain, open the intake heat exchanger reservoir cap (drivers side one) and you should get a couple of litres of coolant To get to the radiator, you need to remove the plastic engine undertray. It is held on with a series of 10mm headed bolts and some clips. For the radiator, there is another type of crappy drain (kind of like a plastic banjo bolt) and you should attach a length of hose to direct the stream of coolant per this pic (otherwise the coolant hits the rad support and goes everywhere). The drain is on the rear of the radiator on the driver's side and a bit hard to find. Put a big tray or bucket down (5l won't be enough) and slowly unscrew the fitting by hand. You only want to remove it far enough for coolant to flow, it you unscrew it right out the whole fitting and direction pipe will come off and you will get a coolant bath (yum!). Undo the radiator reservoir cap and it should empty about 8l
    • So, this shouldn't be such a mission, but there were a few tricks so I thought I'd post up a DIY for it. This was on a Q50 Red Sport but I doubt any other V37 model is very different (maybe just less steps for the intake heat exchanger hoses) I pulled the radiator out to flush it because the car was running hot at the track, but obviously the same steps apply for changing a radiator for any reason including an upgrade. If you are removing the radiator, you of course need to drain and refill, so have 5+ litres of blue coolant ready. You also need to drain the intake heat exchanger to remove the radiator so you will need a couple of litres for that as well. You will also need something to deal with the auto transmission lines, I used 2x 8mm rubber caps on the radiator side, and a short length of 8mm pipe on the car side.....unless you can block these lines quickly you will loose AT fluid and it may be enough to hurt the transmission if you don't refill it. 2 other tools that really help dealing with coolant lines and spring clamps are Bent Needle Nose pliers Hose pliers Between them they will reduce the frustration (and injury) potential by about 1000% Other than that....lets go... "First, jack up your car". Yes really, and put it safely on stands. If you are not confident doing that you need to give this job to a mechanic
    • If the forester is anything like our old 2007 GTB Liberty, I could near on run ling Long's and "rate them", as no matter what, it just hung to the road, even when abusing it in a hard launch in the wet, or throwing it at corners.
