I'm actually hoping they poke out a bit, just to get a nice stance. Are the rear guards wider?

Yes, and as you lower; they tuck in (negative camber) much tighter than the front. With a roll on the guard lip I'd say the rear is 15-20mm wider.

Yep, and the rears can be rolled a bit, the fronts are already rolled. Those sizes will stick out about 10-15mm I think, possibly more than 19 inch tyre stretch will help with but you wont know until you put them on. I would suggest test fitting them before you buy.

I know my 17x9 drifteks are perfect at +30 with a 255 with tyre but with 19 inch I couldn't tell you.

Do anybody make an adjustable upper arm to solve the neg camber issue?

So if they are sitting flush the +22 should look ok. :)

hoping some one on here has a rim somewhat like I'm looking at...

Who else has 19's and what are the size/offset you are running :)

Cheers.

Plenty of different stuff available for 350Z/ G35 in the US (think Ichiba,etc), but going that way will actually REDUCE the wheel to guard clearance.

Maybe shoot spoolin12 a PM, I'm sure his offsets must be close to this after the fitment of his Akebono Brake setup, due to the required spacers to clear the calipers.

looks like it...my spare looks the same.

:thanks: I wasnt too worried, given thats how it looked when it came out, just curious :)

if it sealed completely i dont think it would idle lol

for sure, no air = no go! But I thought if it was designed to be closed when turned off, then 'idle' would have the motor opening it ever so slightly - possibly the amount you see on the pictures - maybe more!

You may find that once it it being controlled by the ecu, it actually pulls closed. Most throttle bodies have an air bypass port to control idle, and the butterfly seals completely.

yeah spoolin has 19x9.5 +40 with a 12mm spacer so effectively a +28 offset... but they do stick out a bit - he has stretched tyres and they dont scrub.

but talk to him about tyre wear. with that width and offset you cant take out much of the camber or they will scrub the guards, so tyres wont last long.

Went a bit overboard on eBay today, picked up my slimline fan ready for the front mount intercooler, and ended up getting a Nismo dash after putting in an offer... Bit sad, but ah well!

Also picked up a Repco equivalent cabin air filter. Got the carbon one for $25.80 trade. They were out of Ryco ones and I figure this would be fine.

Going in tomorrow with the runner spacer (finally!).

Took the car for a thrash through the hills... man there are some idiot drivers up there, but makes me even more excited for the sway bars! :rofl:

I was checking out that Nismo......wont work on my car though unless I change my tyre size

Why's that? Just be out?

My stock speedo is already out around 10%, so doesn't bother me heaps. Will get it calibrated when I get new wheels.

      What brakes on R34 GTT(Europe)

      I would just put EBC back on the "I would not use their stuff" pile and move on.

      Can I suggest you try EBC directly again and link them to as many competitor catalogues as you can to show their listing is incorrect, eg https://dba.com.au/product/front-4000-series-hd-brake-rotor-dba42304/ If you have access to an R33 GTST VIN and your VIN, you could also use a Nissan Parts lookup like Amayama to show them the part number is different between 33 GTST and 34 GTT which may get their attention

      What brakes on R34 GTT(Europe)

      By Kapr · Posted

      So i got reply from EBC and they just this site where you can clearly see those 296mm fronts on R34 GTT. I send them photos and "quotes" that 296mm are not for 34 GTT and they are too small. But it will be very hard to return them cuz nobody here knows 100% and they just copy those EBC catalogue :-D https://ebcbrakesdirect.com/automotive/nissan/skyline-r34

      Duncan's V37.......race car?

      From there, it is really just test and assemble. Plug the adapter cables from the unit into the back of the screen, then the other side to the car harness. Don't forget all the other plugs too! Run the cables behind the unit and screw it back into place (4 screws) and you should now have 3 cables to run from the top screen to the android unit. I ran them along the DS of the other AV units in the gap between their backets and the console, and used some corrugated tubing on the sharp edges of the bracket so the wires were safe. Plug the centre console and lower screen in temporarily and turn the car to ACC, the AV should fire up as normal. Hold the back button for 3 sec and Android should appear on the top screen. You need to set the input to Aux for audio (more on that later). I put the unit under the AC duct in the centre console, with the wifi antenna on top of the AC duct near the shifter, the bluetooth antenna on the AC duct under the centre console The GPS unit on top of the DS to AC duct; they all seem to work OK there are are out of the way. Neat cable routing is a pain. For the drive recorder I mounted it near the rear view mirror and run the cable in the headlining, across the a pillar and then down the inside of the a pillar seal to the DS lower dash. From there it goes across and to one USB input for the unit. The second USB input is attached to the ECUtec OBD dongle and the 3rd goes to the USB bulkhead connected I added in the centre console. This is how the centre console looks "tidied" up Note I didn't install the provided speaker, didn't use the 2.5mm IPod in line or the piggyback loom for the Ipod or change any DIP switches; they seem to only be required if you need to use the Ipod input rather than the AUX input. That's it, install done, I'll follow up with a separate post on how the unit works, but in summary it retains all factory functions and inputs (so I still use my phone to the car for calls), reverse still works like factory etc.
