post-103485-0-18731600-1353470924_thumb.jpg

im looking at running

up front 18 x 8.5 +25

on the rear 18 x 10 + 25

im pretty confident I can run these on the back without mods? but im worried about 1. too much poke 2. not clearing the brakes,

I currently have 17 x 9 + 20s KOYA drift teks all round and they seam to clear fine, can anyone let me kno if ill be ok? I will run spacers if needed but wanna be sure my gtst calipers will fit behind the fronts with no problems

cheers dan

My car used to run 18x10 +12 and they cleared the calipers on my 33 by a bees dick. That was with rolled guards and a slight flair on the back, also now running 18x9.5 +12 all round now and if I didn't have the guard work I'm certain I would have got scrub.

In saying that though I guess it comes down to what look you want too. My 9.5 has a fair bit of poke now.

      R32 GTS (RB20DE) Injectors Replacement

      The issue now is the 'fuel cut' while driving, and when it happend, it does not stall. This, I did not test the fuel pressure while driving as I cannot with a fuel pressure gauge. I do have Nistune logs, yes. I have also replaced the MAF Sensor.   Also related to the FPG Fuel Hanger – I just realized that I need a Deutsch Crimp Tool to crimp some cables for the FPG Fuel Hanger. Need to purchase additional cables as the kit only included 2, which are for the float. FPG has not responded to my emails so far since purchasing. I thought about taking it to someone and having it done professionally, but I am reluctant since everyone I took it to messed up in some way.

      The German place in Cabramatta was rock solid, fresh pretzel cooked to order back then. Then it went all quiet, after all the poker machines were removed, then I believe it closed for good. I did drive past the other week and noticed outdoor lighting a big screen, but no idea what is there now.

      R33 GTR running -9 with no tune

      Yeah I suspect even if you hold airmass per cycle/cylinder constant if you get too far away from stock you're still going to have problems running the factory tune within the bounds of the factory load scale. Cams, different displacement/rod ratio, etc. I'm just lucky that the GTIII-SS with wastegate boost + CA compliance cats is pretty much equivalent to stock turbos. When I have actual space I can finally get it tuned and modify the fuel system for flex fuel to 100% handle any detonation concerns when cranking the boost to whatever those dinky turbos can put out.

      I would say no, why, because my daughter, who also lives in Goulburn, hasn't recommended us going there Pity, as we miss all the German joints around in Sydney, actually, the restaurants are the only thing I really miss about Sydney, and a special mention to Ishibanboshi at Bondi Junction, their Kara-age Don is heart cloggingly deliciousness (always added a special boiled egg...or 2) 😋
