One for the list, 4 door 18x9.5 +26, 245/40 all round Fronts I had to roll and pull the guards, rear I have just rolled the lip a little. Camber is 1.5 front and 1 rear Nismo Stune suspension

Wheels: Work VS-XX F: 18x8.5 +28 r-disc  235/40/18 R: 18x9.5 +32 a-disc 255/40/18 Regarding the fronts: I'm not sure if I needed to get r-disc since there's about 1/2inch 2/3inch gap

Might be a bit tight on the front. I couldn't fit 9.5 +38 on the front it was too inset and was hitting the suspension strut. I went for ; 8.5 +30 on the front 245/40 9.5 +38 on the rear 265/35

Do you run coilovers? Have your rears scrubbed out when crabwalking really steep driveways? I want 265's on the rear now...

no coilovers just really really low springs and they havent scrubbed on steep driveways, only scrubs on big bumps if im going fast enough

dont get +40 pinch.gif atleast get +35 or somewhere around that

even with my 9.5 +34 i could go atleast +30 without rubbing and still they wouldnt stick out.

Hmm.. so what would you recommend out of these two:

18x8.5 +35 Front and 18x9 +32 Rear

OR

18x8.5 +35 Front and 18x9.5 +40 Rear

No guard rolling, don't want it to scrub of course either.

With your idea, would going for a +32 (even if it's 9") be a better fitment to the outer guard? Not really after "big width" rather just a nice look.

I am having the same problem with getting my head around all the offsets etc..

Im looking at getting 19" x 9.5 +22 but im not sure if they will fit.. Everyone else seems to run 18"s only.. I just want something different..

My car has coilovers but is at about standard height.. The body kit should make it look like its a bit lower to the ground as I dont want to lower it because they wheels may not fit with out rolling the guards..

Pics would be sweet when you get it done :yes:

Running cr kai's - F: 18x8.5 + 30 (from memory) with 225 rubber R: 18x9.5 + 38 with 265 rubber.

Conservative (no rubbing issues), fill the guards with no work done, look nice. Excuse quick photo (bad quality)

I could do with a bit of advise.

About to buy TE37's:

Front: 18" 8.5 +30

Rear: 18" 9.5 +40

Am I going to have any issues?

Will be fine, exactly what I am running except my rears are +38 offset. +40 is the offset of the stockies I believe

The only issue you're going to have is that the wheels have flat spokes :down:

The fronts will be fairly flat but my rears have a bit of concavity, and only 2 offset lower.

TE37's are pretty exxy though, have you looked at Varrstoens's or Rota Grids?

I have never seen 9.5s in that offset with concavity :huh:

18x9.5 +22 at the back will sort that out though :thumbsup:

The TE37 is a proven strong, light wheel that is FAR superior to the above mentioned.

They aren't crazy concave of course, but they are far from flat. TE37's easily one of the best ever, and the cost reflects so.

The only reason I mention it, is I've found a set for $2500 delivered, seem alright condition, in the above offset I mentioned.

So as long as +40 will fit, I'll deal with the cosmetic aftershock. At least they will fit nicely, regardless of the outter face concavity.

I hope. ;)

      S1 Autech 260RS Wiring Diagrams

      By ARB26 · Posted

      Newbie here, proud owner of an Autech 260RS. I'm on the hunt for wiring diagrams specific to the 260RS, particularly S1. I've ran my eyes through R33, R34 Diagrams, there are some similarities, however continue to find incorrect wire colours and pins on connectors in the 33,34 diagrams.   I was hoping someone could point me in the right direction? I'd be happy to pay for the originals in Japanese. I can translate them, at least they would be accurate.   Any help please would be greatly appreciated, never heard an RB26DETT before let alone driven one, and I've got a spaghetti monster of goodness to sort out.   Cheers Benny

      Tein Circuit Master- rebuild worth it?

      By QB6SAGR · Posted

      Thanks guys,  Yeah I should at least have them dynoed, at least then I know what I've got as a starting point.  The springs on these are hard as rocks. I vaguely remember Russman saying he was going to sell the shocks to me with the rocks fitted, as he was keeping the softer springs for his new setup.  I didn't click at the time but of course that was to let me know the shock/spring wouldn't be matched.  I also remember pricing up new springs around 2014-15, but, house, money etc. it never happened. So that was another reason to have them rebuilt. I have rebuilt the forks on many motorcycles so I think I could handle the seals on these easily enough, but getting the valving right would be a rabbit hole I cbf exploring.  Duncan, interesting to hear RP was tuning these back then. I might give them a call.  In the mean time I have been busy fitting sway bars. The Whiteline rear sway bar I purchased 15 years ago finally got fitted, along with the Whiteline front bar that showed up last week. Just waiting on new links for the front sway bar to finish that off.  And my spare set of advan AVS VS5's should be back from the powder coaters in a Pearl White finish sometime this week, with a set of Hankook RS4's lined up for fitting.  And then I just have all the suspension bushes to do. A comprehensive kit is on the way... Lots to do before the Ararat hill climb. Cheers guys 🍻
