Hey guys, I recently bought a 34 GTT and i plan to put some new rims on and fit coilovers, To be honest i have no idea about offsets etc, Im looking at 18" Jap style wheels, But i plan to have the car engineered in the near future, So i need to make sure that everything is legal, So i guess my question is what is the widest wheels i can fit on the front and rear without having to flare the guard's etc but still staying legal ?

18 x 8.5 +29 235/40/18 on the front

18x 9.5 +25 245/40/18 on the rear

these are my current size/offset, not too outrageous but still pretty phat dude.

my beast has a fat ass from behind with those back wheels

you could probably go for a few mm more offset if you like. however the offsets of the wheels your looking at will fit no probs.

just like fitting any other wheel.

name/pics of the wheels your getting? please not bob-jane specials ;) lol

Im still deciding between 18 or 19", Just worry that 18's will look to small. My mate just recently put 18's on his s14 and even on a much smaller looking car they look tiny.

This is one set

    • Totally equivalent. Stock often goes from the comp cover because that's where the actuator is also installed and the factory needs 2" of hose to make the connection - and it comes as a pre-assembled unit. They totally have a boost reference from somewhere between the turbo and the throttle(s). Oh, jeez. Just do it in M12 then. We don't actually care that much. I would expect any such AN converter fitting to rely on an o-ring or some other seal onto a flat surface under the flange of the hex**, because bolt threads are no intended to provide a pressure seal. unlike..... pipe threads. **which also requires a suitably flat and smooth surface on the turbo's boss to provide the seal.
    • I also used NP   That’s were it’s seems to be the best place to fit it? All schematic shows also that it’s should be referenced from the turbo housing. But idk, I do see high hp cars without any connection or anything to their turbos, so I really don’t know how they connect their things
    • I do have loctite 243 and 246 and a few more models. I could drill it now in place and make new threads for m12 and order an4 - m12 coupling and fit that to the turbo. Run a braided hose to the EBC which I could get a an4 to 1/8npt 
    • So M12 and sealant should be fine?    NPT ” because that’s what I had and what I could get atm. 
    • Wouldn’t touch par if they gave it to me. You need to ask how much power you’re looking to make and then add about 50% to it because that’s what you’ll end up making  The factory box says no more at about 350kw or so, the upgraded synchro boxes won’t handle much over 500kw for long and at that point you’re looking at an auto or dog engagement manual,  once you’ve gone dog engagement you may as well go sequential, they cost a little bit more but it’s worth it  also while you’re at it you should upgrade the transfer case with 10 friction plates
