hi guys ,

im looking at purchasing the following in 19's for my r33 gtst . just wondering if any one has fitted anything similar in 19 ,iv looked around on sau and google to try find as much info but its limited. im just wondering will 19s be acceptable or is 18s better, im also after an agressive fitment , any recomendations with offset etc as i think they have a few different sets going around on ebay . any info would be appreciated

go 18s, im running rota grids 17*9 on front +5offset plus 25mm extended LCA so prob be around -10 to -15 and 17*9.5 on rear +12 front and rear guards have been pumped out so depending what guardwork you want will determine what offset you get.

thanks for the reply.

do you think 19s will be too big , i was thinking 18s but i thought i want something bigger as iv never had 19s on any of my cars. do you think i should order 9.5 all around , or go 9.5 and 10 ? i was thinking if i got 9.5 all around , i could always use spacers later if i wanted more or an agressive fit

do you think 19s will be too big

Yes

i could always use spacers later if i wanted more or an agressive fit

Buy wheels that fit correctly the first time

... and don't buy Rotas :thumbsup:

I say go 18s because in my opinion on r33 guards 18s are the biggest id go and anything bigger doesnt suit it but up to your personal preference. Id go staggered 9.5 front and 10 on the rear itll look good.

And what wrong with rotas? just one of those people that hears a story about someone saying there shit and they brake so you just keep spreading it? I know alot of people using the rims and have no problems with them. Not everyone can justify spending 3-4k on jap rims when you can spend that money on something else more important.

boostn0199 - thanks for the postive comment , yes i agree 3- 4k on wheels is unjustifiable in my eyes . so would this be the correct offset to suit front 9.5 +20 , and rear 10 +10

iv been a bit apprehensive about buying them until i know the right fitment , iv never really sourced wheels my self other then going to a tyre place , i think the rotas look good and bang for buck

The fronts will need a rolled at that offset and maybe tiny flare but probably should get away but rears will need a roll and flare. The way I ,measured to get the rims perfect were basically just played around with old rims and spacers and washers to simulate the new rims specs and see how they sit.

If you know what your current wheels on the car are you can use this to give you an idea how much more they will stick out.

I went 9.5+30 for rear & 8.5+30 for my fronts on my R34 & they just sit in the guards.

did you end up getting these? I'm looking at the same wheels now but I'm worried about them clearing the brakes, they would be getting posted from the other side of australia so i don't want to have to pay postage if i have to send them back

Everyone always talks about sizes and offsets but the amount of camber you run is just as important for fitment.

How much negative camber are you running and wheel & tire size? You're a GTST right?

About 1.5 degrees. I like to keep plenty of rubber on the road. I have 19 x 9.5 with higher offset (+35, maybe, unsure) Buddy Club P1's. I'm not much for tight fittment though.

    • Ok thanks..that was my second question if i can somehow bypass this even with Nistune(that is all i have right now...aparat from stock ECU. So with some aftemarket it can by "bypassed" or make it work?  I know there is Link or Haltech (mainly used). We have ECUmaster here so i will gather some info about it.
    • Yes. You will need to get the original boost sensor and wire it in. That is.... if you plan to use a stock ECU - even a Nistuned ECU. The Nissan ECU will not operate correctly without it connected. And yes, it will do annoying stuff like you are experiencing. You will almost certainly be better off with some aftermarket ECU, than trying to hunt down rare sensors.
    • Ok so ABS/TCS is "not" the problem. Yeah i know now about the ABS with Nistune(i told that to the Nistune guy) but iam not 100% why or why i dont have ABS. ABS cube is in the engine (always has been) but i had braked couple of times rly hard and brakes just locked and scream. Does all Skylines have ABS cube? That boost sensor https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/367633-wtb-r34-gtt-turbo-pressure-sensor-pics-inside/ Is this it? I need to ask but i have a picture of engine bay and i do not see that (100% is not in that place) If i do not have this the car can do what mine is?(cutting around 4000 rpm) Here is the pic of my engine bay(only one i have) BUT i think i dont have that cuz loom was used from my RB20DE NEO and i know (obviously) that it does not have boost control or any wire to that...) so maybe that is the problem? (i dont know for 100% if that car where the engine is from had that)...but i dont have the loom from that
    • I'm with you here. It's either loom has an issue, OR, injectors are not functioning properly. It could even be they're just constantly dribbling, hence the wet, but not firing.
