Question from editor Jason Round:- in turn, from one of his Performance Imports magazine readers...

What is the type of wheel on the Winfield R32 GT-R car?

And what are its Specs?

I'm sure that the SAU 'Brains Trust' here can provide the answer! :huh:

I know they are 18 x 11" terry but that's about it !

Also does anyone know the whereabouts of the original R32 GT-R Nurburgring Lap video !

Damn I watched that about a month ago! Can't remember where now.

Did you that the original nickname for the R32 GTR worldwide was called "The Weapon"? it wasn't until wheels magazine first coined the term "Godzilla" in it's publication back in '91 that the moniker really stuck. which is kinda cool actually.

Did u no that hks i think i will clarify actually own and produced 2 r32 gtrs that legally arnt nissan's the are hks they bought the cars then made there changes did te whole r and d thing and made their own versions! They look quite different to ur average mostly the twin exhaust in the centre of the rear bumper gives it a sorta porche 959 look! I recently read the article on speedhunters have a look if u want more info!

Hmmm...

DID YOU KNOW THAT there was a nickname given to the stove-oven lights of the R32 (even tho' they first appeared on the KPGC110)?

They were called "afterburners"

    • Then, shorten them by 1cm, drop the car back down and have a visual look (or even better, use a spirit level across the wheel to see if you have less camber than before. You still want something like 1.5 for road use. Alternatively, if you have adjustable rear ride height (I assume you do if you have extreme camber wear), raise the suspension back to standard height until you can get it all aligned properly. Finally, keep in mind that wear on the inside of the tyre can be for incorrect toe, not just camber
    • I know I have to get a wheel alignment but until then I just need to bring the rear tyres in a bit they're wearing to the belt on the inside and brand new on the outside edge. I did shorten the arms a bit but got it wrong now after a few klms the Slip and VDC lights come on. I'd just like to get it to a point where I can drive for another week or two before getting an alignment. I've had to pay a lot of other stuff recently so doing it myself is my only option 
    • You just need a wheel alignment after, so just set them to the same as current and drive to the shop. As there are 2 upper links it may also be worth adding adjustable upper front links at the same time; these reduce bump steer when you move the camber (note that setting those correctly takes a lot longer as you have to recheck the camber at each length of the toe arm, through a range of movement, so you could just ignore that unless the handling becomes unpredictable)
    • I got adjustable after market rear camber arm to replace the stock one's because got sick of having to buy new rear tyres every few months. Can anyone please let me know what the best adjustment length would be. I don't have the old ones anymore to get measurements. I'm guessing the stock measurement minus a few mm would do it. Please any help on replacing them would be fantastic I've watched the YouTube clips but no-one talks about how long to set the camber arm to.
    • Heh. I copied the link to the video direct, instead of the thread I mentioned. But the video is the main value content anyway. Otherwise, yes, in Europe, surely you'd be expected to buy local. Being whichever flavour of Michelin, Continental or Pirelli suits your usage model.
