Cheers for the advice mate,

Just one Q. though, Shall I go for 19X 10.5J + 12 or 19X 10.5J +0 offset?

I think it would be safer to go for 12 as I am a bit concerned about +0 offset might intefere with the fenders.

34 bodies eat up 17s. Even 18s look a bit small.

Not sure if your overfenders are wider than 34s, if you had the option of going 0 offset, I would have built the guards around it a bit more.

+12s will fit flush/slight poke in the guards, but becareful, you may have rubbing when turning in the car - best bet would be to try them on if possiple.

Word of warning, 19" tyres, especially in 275/285 are real expensive.

Cheers for the advice mate... real appreciate.

Yeah, I guess the best way to find out is to try them out & buy but since I am planning to import the wheels directly from the US without going through a local middleman, I might have to make an order without trying them on first.

I will consider to go for +12 then... so really nice example of R34 with the wheels I am thinkin of buying (T37 copy, Varrstoen or something it is called) in Down Under.

19" must be much more expensive compared to 17" but well, since we have both Kumho and Hankook tyres here in Seoul, I will wait for a real bargain to come up!

Thanks

Now, ... my build project isfar from being over, yet bodykit exterior part is almost done and wanted to share some pics for those who would be interested in converting Bnr32 into Bee-r324.

Thanks Simon, yeah.. I just used my old canon to take a pic. maybe I should get DSLR for better shots.

Nice colour.

Looks good.

Need better and clearer pictures to show the body off.

Excellent work, turned out very well. I know it's only personal opinion but that colour would look so much better with gold wheels or at least bronze. The black wheels seem to get lost as they are the same colour as the tires. This hides the width of the wheels and seems to ruin the whole purpose of the wide body in the first place.

Hi guys, nice car justin!! a beutiful colour indeed. I am doing this conversion to my own 32 but I found this car on ebay the other day and thought i would share with you guys.

I dont know if I like it or hate it. it reminds me a little of NFS underground :spank:

How's your progress on R32 conversion? I also recognized this bodykit but when I gave a thought on wheels & tyres suitable for the kit... I just couldn't come up with an idealistic plans. There are many disputes over Bee-r324 kits since critics say it ruins the whole classic identity of R32.. which I agree but the city where I live in is full of new European cars and I simply couldn't stand locals looking down on my skyline due to its "old school" looks and I decided to be different. Well it kinda works fine on roads and I see less people sneaking in front of me even I maintain the "3 seconds" traffic rule.. lol.

I have changed some exteriors since then... got rid of the carbon boot and added Uras wing & day light LEDs.

The vehicle is yet far from its completion but well I have something to keep me occupied . :)

    • Man, different parts but the same numbers is terrible @dbm7! And it doesn't help that most online shops don't list the part numbers at all. They just give a list of compatible models...
    • Slow when hot could also be because its getting more dynamic compression, OR things are getting a bit tighter once it is all expanded. If it were an earthing issue, typically I'd expect you to have it have issues all the time. Unless it's really a combination of both things. Where the higher compression, and things being a bit tighter, is giving that bit of extra load and you do need a slight clean up on the cables/connections.
    • Yeah, this is one of the most annoying things about nissan part numbers... I've got an unrelated example... Image is of the AT output shaft ~ they have the same part#, but clearly the shaft on the left is beefier design to that on the right ...the difference (essentially) is the 'lighter' shaft on the right, is for engines up to RB25DE (this includes RB20 variants) : the shaft on the left is for RB25/26DET(T)....are they interchangeable? Yes...but obviously one shaft is going to be stronger than the other...and, the lighter shaft is around USD115, but the heavier shaft closer to USD150...same part#... ...epc-data usually tells a tale ~ the amayama listing for 39100-23U60 has a note "Longest side is between 60 and 105 cm" ; no such info is there for 39100-23U70 ...and given the great disparity in price between the 2 parts, it makes me at least curious (to the point of caution) where the 'extra money' went? ...ie; these 2 parts have a cost difference that (to myself at least) isn't explained by 'plastic boot'...ie; with amayama there's AUD700 price difference ...plastic versus rubber?...I'm not seeing it like that...and 60cm ~ 105cm...??...that's a huge disparity....something hinky going on here... I'd try searching by VIN, not model... /2cents
    • I don't know for sure, but I'd expect them all to be interchangeable given the diff end and hub end don't move/change between any C34 series. Often Nissan will change part numbers and the aftermarket follows those year ranges; but the original part number change doesn't mean other parts won't fit. The change could be a change in material, internal parts or even just supplier. For example, all the RB gearbox to engine bolts are no longer available and there is a new part number instead. The only change is they went from cadmium plated bolts to zinc plated due to the issues manufacturing with Cadmium. They look different but work the same.
