thats what nisskid recomended with stock guards and low.. any chance sedans are different?

not sure if different on sedans but, I had scrubbing issues with 17x8 +30 with 235/45 tyres

Had to drop to 225/45's to reduce scrubbing

You are going another inch wider and +20, that will be an interesting fit.

The r33 GTR rims are 17x9 +30. Have a look through the r32 image thread for those rims on the r32. That will give you an idea if there is room for +20

got an invoice for my bodykit from VW US. Including shipping to oz it's $1500 cheaper than what VW AU wanted for the same thing.

Fucking muppets.

Mohsen, fuck you and your fucking pipedreams. Buy a car. Until then I ain't giving you any advice on nothing.

saturday. if nothing goes wrong

kris is right there....

be smart man...

having said that... pat's a fag... those wheels will fit easy... just need to flare more\

why people are afraid of flaring guards on a ~10k car is beyond me... just man up ffs

you wanted aggressive fitment, Rekin runs pretty mild fitment.

the reason why his scrubbed is:

A: he was running a big tyre

B: his guards werent roll enough/right

C: his suspension was too soft

with 17x9 +20 u will be running a 215/45, hard suspension, then u will go at ur guards, just enough to make them fit (rolling and slight pulling in areas). when i talk about stock guards there i mean rolled guards as it's kind of a given if u want any sort of aggressive fitment. u wont need to flare to get a 17x9 +20 under.

17x9 +16 225/45

might have to do something about my spring rates. or do i hope it'll tuck on launch? she squats atleast an inch

getting aggressive fitment on soft suspension is farkin hard, doable, but hard. if u want the aggressive look, then harder springs are ur best bet. but realistically u wanna be going harder dampers as well.

im gonna see how far i get with what i have because i like the ride atm. but i could also do with less roll in corners. its the SK gb spec bilsteins/whiteline fyi.

im running 18x10 +19 all round, 235 and 245. lipped and slightly pulled. no scrubbing cos of how high it is but next thing on the list is low

the circlip adjustment is just the start of ur woes, the biggest problem is they use the standard hats, by having the top spring seat sitting down so low, ur spacing the suspension up, lifting ur car effectively.

u need to turn this:

    • I can see between the water jacket and cyl 3 there wasn't a hard line of combustion gas. It certainly appears that the issue is coming from there. Yes, checked the tension. All at 100ft lbs where I set them 5 years ago. These blocks can crack but generally when they have been over bored. Mine is only 0.5mm oversize at 89.5mm. They break between cylinders around the 91mm mark. No sign of that with mine. My gut feeling is the head gasket lifted a while back when the studs stretched and i bandaided it by retorquing the studs. It's finally let go.
    • My Nismo 1.5 churps a bit on reverse turns when cold, but besides that feels like a stock diff.
    • Yes, but, I paid cash and I'm pretty sure the receipt was in the bin 10 minutes after I got home Note to self, keep all receipts

    • So, version 4 intake is on its way I was looking at these a while ago but at around $200 or more it was a little pricey for something that might not work, but, I had it in my watch list, but, I got a message saying it was on special, and I had a code thingie to use, it eventually came in at $120 delivered, so BAM, BUY NOW.....LOL I'll need to have a look when it arrives but I feel it will "look" better than what I currently have, as it comes with a PCV fitting, so I will be able to get rid of the alloy pipe that goes to the throttle body with the PCV fitting  Well, that's what the voices in my head are telling me  Oh, and this happened today Yeap, it was a Trojan, and it was cheap, so I headed back to the hardware store and actually spent a little bit more on a heavy duty,  one that was actually recommended by a plumber mate, a Cyclone one with a fibreglass handle that is actually rated for clay The broken shovel will eventually be "modified" into a short handle shovel
