+12 offset should look pretty mad.

Getting them off Boost Automotive, Brad's got the best price I found. I'm also getting some tyres off him, amazing price also.

18x9.5 +12

I haven't bought them yet, just a test fit today.

Rears are nice a hella flush, heaps of room for everything. Front are a bit of a troll though. I'm going to measure the shit out of everything tomorrow and see what needs to change. to make it work.

Bolt on what? I don't know what you're asking!

I forgot GTR Guards were an option... Does anyone have any? do they bolt straight onto a GTS? Can I keep my blue NA GT badges? pirate.gif

What's the difference between the GTR and GTS guard? are they actually bigger? it's hard to tell in the pics :/ I see the indicator is smaller and there are some extra holes for more trim but that's it?

GTS Guards are so cheap I might as well just get a pipe onto my stock ones yes?

Edit: seems you need the guards, raisers, GTR hinges, bonnet and latch. to have GTR guards... hmm.

Going to get my pole on then. Fitment on these wheels just look too boss to not have.

Still going to paint the rim blue though. Do you think it'll be easier just to brush it on with some awesome modeling paint or something? because masking a perfect circle sounds like it'd be hard to do :/

why not just get a less aggressive offset on the front. its not a gtr so you dont need "gtr" sized wheels. plus wider track in the back will improve stability.

just an idea.

or more camber if you have upper arms?

or put r32 lower control arms in as they are shorter then shorten up the tops.

or dont do the last one.

You're starting to sound like a woman. "less aggressive", "shorter", "don't", Cmon man!

I've already got -4 degrees neg on the front, maybe should wind some more neg on, but I know the dude at beauepairs will have a teary about it then start comparing his KE70 to my car.

yea that may be right. some people say i have a massive V, but it also comes from experience with wheels and fitment or not, just trying to save you the stress and hassle of modifying guards at the track. i can guarantee when you spin off and hit a ripple strip with the wheels hanging out there wont be enough travel to save the guard. getting the correct size now will save in the long run.

Yeah, I'm just yanking your chain, I appreciate your advice and know you've got a wealth of experience :)

The plan is to raise the front about 5mm (it's too low atm anyway) and get my pole on and roll those guards up, wish me luck :D

    • Pads for R32 GTS-t, R32 GT-R non V-Spec (Sumitomo), R33 GTS-t and R34 GT-t are all interchangeable. R34 GT uses a 2x piston caliper, hence it didn't fit.
    • Checked with amayama and nope, the full S2 manual set is not available anymore. Unsurprising, but still disappointing as the ? on availability gave a glimmer of hope.
    • I've heard the Tomei USA head gaskets are decent if you want to o-ring the heads but otherwise not recommended.
    • The 296mm rotors are the R33 turbo brakes. The 310mm rotors are the R34 turbo brakes. The calipers are nearly the same, but not. They're the same caliper but the R34 caliper has longer legs so that it sits out far enough to go over the rotor. The pads are the same for both. When you say, "I bough tsome EBC"....did you just mean pads? Or rotors? 310mm rotors fit under 17" wheels. There may be some wheels without enough clearance though. I can't fit my fingers between the barrel of my wheel and the "corners" of my R34 calipers, but there is plenty of room behind the spokes. This is on Enkei RPF1. You can fit 324mm rotors inside a 17" wheel, but I'd be willing to bet that it would be close to impossible with the Nissan/Sumitomo caliper (using an adapter, of course), because the Sumitomo caliper is fatter than the Brembo caliper that is supposed to go on the 324mm rotors.
    • Hi. Can someone tell me what brakes(and mainly WHERE) can i buy brakes on R34 GTT? I bought some EBC which SHOULD go on my car(i have GT but it has GTT brakes) but it does not fit, Brakes are "too" small(296mm) Are 310mm be good or? I have 17 inch wheel so no "big boys" but for me driving i just need one that fits and i can get here in EU/Czech.
