if you want best handling stick to +35 front +38 rear..if you just want it to look sexy better with something like +30 front +22 rear will need some guard rolling, if you want the wide look go +15 front +10 rear but will need guards pumped slightly if its low..if you want awesome talk to blags.. they actually have sets on ebay with offsests designed for nissans..but this is a rough guide..

if your drifting stick with 235/45s they are most popular so cheap..you can get brand new ferals this size for 100$ on ebay even..im thinking either 8 or 9 inch alround with an offset between +30 and +10 depending how much guard work you want to do..keep em the same size front and back and you can swap em around if you need too but 33 skylines do look heaps better with fats on the rear..costs more $$$ but..also offsets can also be dependant on your camber,

i most likely wont be swappign them around cause ill buy good tyres for the front so i dont get any understeer or anything in the wet, yeah i most likely will get fats on the rear though.

what do you think of the specs on these ones?

I'm running 18x9+32 hyper silver all round on my R33 GTS-T. They look fantastic IMO, although I would change the rears to 9.5 if I could...but can't source them in Australia...not in that size, colour and offset. Don't know how you got them for the rears Callan? I'm thinking about putting a 5mm spacer on the rears just to bring them out a little bit...then it'll be perfect.

P.S. reason it's not mega low is that I've had the springs corner weighted for good handling...plus I got sick of scraping my front bar on everything.

What Callan has should require no rolling. It all depends on your ride height. My 9" all round was scraping at the front, but only when turning sharp and when going over bumps around corners. My vehicle is lowered.

the guy said

"The mattblack only comes in 17 x 9 +17 and 17 x 10 +15.

Have you considered running 17 x 9 +17 all around?"

would these need any guard rolling?

this is how low my car is sitting

    • 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
