hello all

im about to buy a new set of rims for my r34.

now i already have wide wheels with a deep dish and lipped/rolled and flared guards.

the rims i want are

18x9.5 +25 front

and

18x12 +20 front

now the fronts will fit no fkn problem at all

but how far out are the back ones gonna sit out.

ive bought some bolt on flares for it but i wanna know how much they are gonna stick out

i dont know how to use an affset calculator lol

thanks

Using standard 18-inch '34 GTR rims as a guide, they're 9.0" wide with +30 offset and they sit pretty much perfectly flush on standard GT-T guards. The rear rims (12inch?) that you've got, they should sit about 86mm out from the guards.

Hope that helps :(

Regards,

offset calculator

if you cant use that jules, then please hand you license into your nearest vicroads ;)

lol

vic roads took my licence a long time ago brother.

i get the calulator, but the part that i couldnt work out was how far out they will stick from the guards

but, thanks for the link cuz

it will defianetly be pulled off.

ive already bought the front and rear guards in carbon, its all the way now.

just gotta wait for some more cash to come in a few weeks (tax time) so i can paint the car .... again (2 in 4 months lol)

my mate has 11.5's on the back of his with a -20 offset or something and his guards are just rolled flared etc (like heaps lol) so i dont see y i cant fir them on my 34 with 40mm less offset haha

yeah man ill add a pic of what it looked like before i lost my licence.

since then it has had a cage put in, 2 brides, carbon bonnet and boot

i have a 2630 being built for it atm

and a whole f**k load more carbon on the way.

heres the build thread if u want

and a pic as well of the wheels i wanna get, there nothing special but they r nice and wide

    • Give it 40psi and send it to the moon
    • I suspect 550s are on the large side for happy operation with a stock/Nistune RB20 ECU. The Hitachi ECU doesn't love short pulse width operation, and the RB20 doesn't need much fuel at idle. Big injectors can be unpleasant. This could be contributing.
    • Yeah, I still don't know why the idle speed control can't catch the falling RPMs. In the Consult logs I see the AAC duty cycle rising, but suddenly it goes lean and the engine stalls. Anyways, the relevance here is the DW 550cc injectors are probably the same. So if OP has similar issues I would be tempted to finger those injectors as problematic for whatever reason vs the ECU failing for some reason.
    • Yeah, sort of blurring two different things together, aren't we? I just meant O2 feedback closed loop. I used to have a 0-1V LCD meter on my dash, wired directly to the O2 sensor signal. So you could easily see what it was doing. Normal running it would flick back and forth nicely. Slow down to an idle and it would keep flicking, as the ECU tried to servo to maintain stoich, but it would slow down as each swing happened until it would stay at one end of the scale. As I said above, the sensor heater is not enough to keep it hot enough when there is also little heat in the exhaust flow. Give it a blip and it would start swinging again, then peter out again. Meanwhile, idle speed control would run just fine, because unrelated.
    • It's not even O2 feedback, it's just simply when the ECU sees the closed TPS signal for whatever reason the idle will start steadily dropping until the engine dies. With the TPS adjusted to not trigger closed TPS it will idle at some ridiculously high RPM and something like 6 degrees of timing. In the absence of getting eyes on it personally and a lot of quality time doing diagnostics I couldn't tell you what the real problem was but it was interesting nonetheless
