Hey guys

I've got an r32 gts-t and I've got some 18x11.5" +26 work vs-xx wheels coming, and I need rear wide fenders to fit them.(preferably +50mm)

I've rang savanna motorsports the Origin dealer for aus, and they informed me that Origin do not make wide rear over fenders for the r32.

So I'm begging you guys to lead me in the right direction for some GOOD quality rear fenders. I want them to fit straight up, I don't want to have to stuff around with fuel filler in particular. Please, do you know any good brands?

*sigh* you saw a set of wheels on YAJ and went "OMG fullysick dishhh uleh I must have it!" didn't you?

What you probably didn't account for is that 11.5 +26 makes your wheels sit around 2 inches too far inside so it will hit your shocks unless you run some chronic spacers. This is in addition to sticking out of your guards by about 30mm, so lets say you space out the wheel by about 30mm to clear the shocks, you'll then need a 60mm overfender to clear the rim (run stretched tyres and you should be able to sit it at a decent height and not collect the fibreglass fender with your tyre and send it all to hell... or look like poser and run it at 4WD height).

So I'm begging you guys to lead me in the right direction for some GOOD quality rear fenders. I want them to fit straight up, I don't want to have to stuff around with fuel filler in particular. Please, do you know any good brands?

rear fenders NEVER fit straight up. not even japanese ones. I imported a set of D-Max ones straight out of japan and even then we had to trim the fibreglass and sand out the imperfections etc.

Nice buy from Import Monster though, and 155,000Y isn't actually that bad a price for em. But I wouldn't wanna be the guy trying to shoehorn them under an R32 GTSt, especially the 10.5 +26 in the front, without resorting to something like a BN widebody kit.

How the hell did u find the auction I got my wheels from haha. Yes a very good buy, and I've seen same wheels on gtr32 but 10.5 front n rear, and I wanted rears to be slightly wider I was actually waiting for the wheels for a while. I've got gtr front end already just need rears. A mate has some viva garage ones and I held them up and they needs about an inch cut out front and rear of wheel arch, they are the complete wrong size

lol do a search for "VIVA garage fenders" in this section, and you'll find pics that I took of a set that were delivered to me.

yea definately would hav taken the cash and ran. IMO all the aftermarket fenders out there ruin the clean lines of the r32, they just make the car look silly even when done to a high standard. get some rims that actually fit and dont make it look like a clown car.

GTR oem guards FTW

Sorry to dig up this thread.. Didn't want to make a new one.. Did a search and found some useful info.

But, not exactly what I'm after.

I may of answered my own question.. With the stock 32 gtst wheel (16x6.5 unsure of offset)

I will have to widen/role my guards for a set of 32 GTR wheels? (16x8 +30)

Thanks guys.

Couple hundred too much IMO. But it depends on how much they are worth to you. I sold my Volk SF Challenge set (17x9+22) for less with near-new tyres!

Well I would live some rays te37s but waaay out of my price range haha..

Maybe one day.

Rough price on 32 GTR wheels with or without tyres? In your opinion :)

      If you take the top half of the intake off you can unbolt the flap off the shaft and leave the shaft in there blocking the hole. Then you can remove the little vacuum canister off from under the manifold and get a spare vacuum line to run to the ECU. I can take some photos of it later. Probably best to get the vacuum source to the ECU sorted first though. Mine all worked mint with the base map from the GTT an I've pretty much let the closed loop sort the fueling and took 1 degree out of the whole timing map.

      This IS something you also have to configure in Haltech (or at least I did in the past when going from onboard-to-ECU map sensor and an external MAP sensor in haltech land).

      I'm hoping it's something as simple as the ECU is looking for an external MAP sensor, but he is trying to use the onboard MAP sensor.

      You won't need to do that if your happy to learn to tune it yourself. You 100% do not need to do that. It is not part of the learning process. It's not like driving on track and 'finding the limit by stepping over the limit'. You should not ever accidently blow up an engine and you should have setup the ECU's engine protection to save you from yourself while you are learning anyway. Plenty of us have tuned their own cars, myself included. We still come here for advice/guidance/new ideas etc.  What have you been doing so far to learn how to tune?

      Put the ECU's MAP line in your mouth. Blow as hard as you can. You should be able to see about 10 kPa, maybe 15 kPa positive pressure. Suck on it. You should be able to generate a decent vacuum to about the same level also. Note that this is only ~2 psi either way. If the MAP is reading -5 psi all the time, ignition on, engine running or not, driving around or not, then it is severely f**ked. Also, you SHOULD NOT BE DRIVING IT WITHOUT A LOAD REFERENCE. You will break the engine. Badly.
