Hi, I would like to know what the impact may be for these offsets. Your views are appreciated.

(I checked a few of the calculators but not informative in real terms. 17mm closer to strut and 17mm further in).

A little lucky I guess.

- I have 2 full sets of Volk GTC's with different offsets and I'd like to know your thoughts on any impact.

The first set is Diamond Black 18 x 9's with +12. A perfect fit for my GTR R32 I think.

- Federal RSR's 265's on the rear, will be 235's on the front.

Second set is Gold 18 x 8's and 18 x 9's with +29

- Federal RSR 265's rear and 235's on the front.

My Question: Is +29 going to be an issue ?

Cheers

R33 and R34 GTR rims are both 9 inch wide and are +30, so 1mm further in than your +29

So they will sit basically the same to give you an idea.

+12 sits out further. looks alot better.

Have you fitted them to the car? do they clear the front calipers?

(I can not be bothered checking the Rays chart to check if the +29 are Type A or B disk)

Stick with the same width front and rear with rim and tyres.

Then you can rotate them and have no awd issues.

OK - confirmed the 9" +12 are cherry.

Is there issue with the +29's as they better suit R33 and R34's than GTR R32.

Just concerned ride and steering may be a bummer and I may screw something up.

Plus if they sit too far in the gaurd it will look $#!*

    • Have you done the Ignition Sync Wizard in the AEM software?
    • Find out what RPM it was idling at with the IACV unplugged. It's very weird that the rpm didn't change at all, and then it stalled. When it stalls is it nearly like a switch off, like you've turned the engine off? Or is it more stutters and sputters and coughs to death over a few seconds? Or does the RPM just slowly keep going down and down? Have you done a test of trying to start it with the AFM unplugged? Does it still die?     If you Follow Josh's advice on using Nistune to check the voltages (which is a perfect method!) if you see anything out of wack voltage wise, THEN get the multimeter out and read the voltage directly at the sensor. If the two vary, then you're now looking for a wiring issue vs a sensor issue. So be aware, what the ECU sees, may not be what the sensor is actually saying too...
    • You very likely need to get it on a dyno and tune it. My assumption is, you've got an RB25DET tune in it, which has a different manifold, different injectors, and different cams as a minimum. What O2 sensor are you running?   When you say it runs extremely rich from idle all the way to redline, is this just free revving it you see that?
    • I seem to the be only person that is using a Haltech 2500 on an NA motor, I've installed a Bosch DBW throttle body to the OEM intake manifold and am having problems maintaining AFR even with the wideband o2.  It will run extremely rich at idle and up to redline, but under load it will go extremely lean in the 20s and i'm essentially having to rev it over 4k and feather the clutch to get it up to speed.  I've read a few other threads of about the butterfly, it seems removing the vacuum to it is supposed to have it remain open, i've noticed no difference under 4k with the vacuum line to it plugged.  I'm hoping someone here has had luck using the NA manifold with Haltech, and if they happen to have a tune for it.  
    • I don't know any details, but I really wouldn't be surprised if they do it as a LHD only version, at least initially.
