Hey Guys,

My name is Scott and I'm 19 and live in North West Sydney.

I joined up so I could do some research about R34 GTs and GT-Fours, so I can buy one in the near future.

Currently get around in a 2006 CH Lancer LS, with coilovers, rims, exhaust, intake, HIDs and a few other tasty mods. It a 4G69 2.4L SOHC I4, so it has got some go, and the Racing Logic coilovers, strut and sway bars and the BF Goodrich G-Force Sport tyres certainly make it handle well. It keeps up with a modified S15 Autech, so I am pretty happy... But I have always wanted an R34, and now I am in a position to get one.

I'm on several other forums under the same user name. Also a mod on Mitsubishi Club Australia, so I get the whole forum thing. Don't worry, I will search before posting. Lol.

Couple of pics of my current ride.

Welcome Scott,

We won't throw sh/t @ your Lancer.

This is the biggest bunch of converts here anyway lol

Haha... Thanks buddy.

You should hear the shit I copped when I joined EvoOz... "Wah, its a Lancer. You make us look bad. It is such an embarrassment. I hate it how people modify Lancers. It is like, why bother?" and all that sorta stuff. I joined just to troll the FS section. Haha.

Besides, it is the internet anyway. Lol.

Haha... That would be rather funny.

I'm having trouble subscribing to threads at the moment. Were there any issue with the site last Thursday saving things in My Controls? A few of my settings weren't saved even though I am sure I clicked save.

    • That is a lovely Volvo, just saying. Yes I should have got an 260RS when they were cheap. I do regret now.
    • ^ lots of good points made above. The thing is, "aggressive" or "flush" fitment is relative depending on how much you have been influenced by social media. My starting point is always "look at the Nismo RWD specs". That is where you should start, then start measuring as GTSBoy as sort of mentioned, because every car will be slightly different. My 8.5"+35/9.5+38 will not be "flush" enough for you because you want more "pumped" look, which is why you measure. Tyre sizes and brand/models also make a difference. Some tyres are more chunky/square, some are more rounded. That means you could get away with more aggressive offsets without rubbing. But then it also depends on your ride height. Also depends on how much your car copped damage before being shipped from Japan. So it goes back to measuring your car yourself and determining what can work. Those Nismo specs are used bacause it's a safe spec for standard car (suspension. body) with chunky tyres. But then I put 265/35 wide tyres on R34 GT-R wheels, and currently run 285/30 tyres on 18x10 wheels.
    • Sounds pretty awesome. I recommend creating a new build thread and posting all your goodness in there.
    • +1 for Jesse Streeter. Over the years I have got a bunch of stuff from him (usually wheels, but other parts like aftermarket braces and coolers). He was very good with shipping things to Australia. He may be able to send to other countries.
