Hi fellas,

My R33 GTR is currently running LENSO D1R Wheels.

Offsets are 18x8.5 front and 18x10 on the rear.

I recently bought some wheels spacers and they're just wrong. The stud pattern appears to be wrong and is too long so they just won't fit.

Your help urgently would be much appreciated...

Please advise which of the following spacers would fit perfectly? Thank you so much in advance.

Also, is having different size spacers on the rear and front bad or is it still ok? I was thinking of going 20mm at the fronts and 25mm on the rears.

Just looking at those spacers, they don't specify Nissan in the suitable vehicles list. Be careful of this, because even if the stud pattern of the spacer is the same as the hub, the hub centre itself may not be...so all the pressure/weight will be on the wheel bolts and spacer bolts instead of the hub centre = not good.

I have JJR spacers.

They are hubcentric so are a perfect fit.

Depending on the width of the spacer used and the recess (if any) between the wheel mounting holes you MAY need to cut your studs shorter.

Most good aftermarket wheels you'll be fine, but my 34R wheels required it.

Hi fellas, thanks for all your help...I really appreciated it...I ended up order 2 pairs from Ebay from some manufacturer based in NZ. Only because these looked more heavy duty and were factory painted black which matched my rims. The JustJap ones look good too but are silver which would stand out and would be a easy target for the cops to defect.

I've opted for more width at the front because I have a staggered offset. I know it's not recommended for GTRs being AWD, but it has not posed any issues for me yet and it's not that I race it at the track or anything so all good so far.

Cheers.

I thought all spacers were illegal, but then, I heard new information yesterday that the bolt-on spacers are legal...it's the plates that simply sit on the hub which aren't?

    • I can see between the water jacket and cyl 3 there wasn't a hard line of combustion gas. It certainly appears that the issue is coming from there. Yes, checked the tension. All at 100ft lbs where I set them 5 years ago. These blocks can crack but generally when they have been over bored. Mine is only 0.5mm oversize at 89.5mm. They break between cylinders around the 91mm mark. No sign of that with mine. My gut feeling is the head gasket lifted a while back when the studs stretched and i bandaided it by retorquing the studs. It's finally let go.
    • My Nismo 1.5 churps a bit on reverse turns when cold, but besides that feels like a stock diff.
    • Yes, but, I paid cash and I'm pretty sure the receipt was in the bin 10 minutes after I got home Note to self, keep all receipts
    • Bunnings would have just handed you your money back on that one!
    • So, version 4 intake is on its way I was looking at these a while ago but at around $200 or more it was a little pricey for something that might not work, but, I had it in my watch list, but, I got a message saying it was on special, and I had a code thingie to use, it eventually came in at $120 delivered, so BAM, BUY NOW.....LOL I'll need to have a look when it arrives but I feel it will "look" better than what I currently have, as it comes with a PCV fitting, so I will be able to get rid of the alloy pipe that goes to the throttle body with the PCV fitting  Well, that's what the voices in my head are telling me  Oh, and this happened today Yeap, it was a Trojan, and it was cheap, so I headed back to the hardware store and actually spent a little bit more on a heavy duty,  one that was actually recommended by a plumber mate, a Cyclone one with a fibreglass handle that is actually rated for clay The broken shovel will eventually be "modified" into a short handle shovel
