yeah been looking for the decent adjustable upper arms but cant find anything other than d project etc...... had them on my previous 32 and the adjustment in them was poor at best. 17x9 +12 on the front is a smarter move anyways for inner clearance too so spose its for the best lol

I'm not to sure how you'll go fitting 9.5's on the front, my 9 +22's only just have inner clearence, and they almost rub lipped guards with about 2.5 neg camber. Depends on tyre size ofcourse, but you wouldnt want any smaller then a 245 on a 9.5, I have 245's on the 9's but a 235 would be a better fit for the front.

Try the hard race upper arms, they are really good quality and pretty cheap, but yea there is limited adjustablitly, you cant get more then about 2.5 neg, if you already have 33 lca's I wouldnt run upper arms aswell, unless you want like 5 neg or something crazy like that.

If you can get a 9 for the front I'd go that, alot easier to fit.

your 9 +22 will have 4mm less clearance on the inner than a 9.5 +12 dude ;) a 9 +12 offset will have 10mm more clearance than you currently have and will sit 10mm further than yours at the moment. ;)

believe it or not a 235 is actually close to reccomended for a 9.5 and really isnt much of a stratech at all. currently running 215/45 on my 9s happily.

Oh ok, I should have checked the offset calculator :teehee:

Even still you'll have less outer clearence, there will be more then 1/2 inch of rim sticking out compared to a 9 +22 if you went a 9.5, the 9 +12 sounds like a winner, 10mm is easy to fit with a bit more camber and a guard roll.

    • A31 is pretty much the same thing without HiAIDS I mean CAS, no improvement lol. Not to late to send it.
    • Thanks for all the replies! I also wanted to ask if wheels that were fitted on Ford Falcons would fit the 350GTs as well? In the area I'm at there aren't that many options for secondhand wheels and new ones here are way out of my budget. From what I've seen, most of the wheels that are available that were fitted on Ford Falcons have an offset of +33 to +36, with a centre bore of 70.5mm whereas the stock 350GT's ones are 66mm, can't seem to find any hubcentric rings that fit that difference though. 
    • 215/45/18 tyres are probably a little on the low side compared to the factory tyre, it should be closer to a 245/45/19, which will get you about an extra 11mm of height, and should make you speedo read a bit closer to reality. 245/45/19s will be a bit too far the other way and you risk a speeding ticket as your speedo might read slower than your actual speed.  245/40/19s would be correct if you are going to 19in rims, they will give you a similar total diameter to the 245/45/18 tyres.  
    • That's something I forgot to put in my list. The aggressive anti-squat in R32 is a f**king menace. I still need to decide if I'm going to drag the subframe out of my car and weld in the GKTech corrector kit. The main reason to dither is the need to switch to spherical joints in the lower arm to account for the twist induced in the rear pivot caused by lowering the front pivot. And yes...we do put better subframes in R32s, and I wish I'd gotten an S14 one instead of an A31 when I did the "take off and nuke it from orbit" HICAS delete all those years ago.
    • I have been looking at some setting on the alarms for the Q60 and what buttons do and so and also been looking for details on the alarm in my V37 which is a standard issue with the car. settings like window roll up and a few others seem to not work at all. i cant seem to find exact info on V37 alarms so Q60 is all i can really go off i have not tried 400Z alarm settings or info yet so that will be next. any one got like a sheet of info on the alarm system in the V37 as all my documents are in japanese but i thought the system would basically be like standard through similar models?
