^^^axles the same?, or same as pissy autos, not 260rs and rs4s ?

Ill been interested to see this actually driving, i know what mine hits and doesn't, and thats 18x9.5 +20 with 235's.

it still touches the coilover on big bumps on a full tank

Still not sure how it won't smash the coilovers once you hit the first little bump

Looks tuff though!, hope it all works out!

cheers

Sub frame are the same yes but what jet r31 is commenting on is the axles, s1 auto and s2 auto stages have relatively week axles given the weight of the car so if you start making decent power through them with hard launches and shifts they will snap. an auto will cushion them a bit but they will go as will s14 axles ect . So if you where to do this conversion for a serious mod not just the fact of fitting big wheels under it would pay to use a rs260 or rs4s rear sub and diff axle set up and gain much stronger/thicker 6bolt 33gtr axles that run in those cars , and as RS2000 is all ready running in the high 200kw range sure he will need it one day ,

And as jetr31 and mike have said I can not possibly see how 10.5 inch rims with that offset are not fowling rear coils , and make sure ya spring rate is not hard, when I had my 20s on the ride was bone breaking

went to local tyre power today to do a proper test fit, i need 25mm spacers on front. i have ordered 30mm to be sure, once they arrive i will get 4 new tyres fit and then we can see what dramas i run into then lol......................

    • I wasn’t able to replicate the sound anymore. It was a one time sound so maybe it was just coincidence but it was like small pebbles being dropped in a coke can.   should I try cleaning the MAF? It could be it’s functioning but dirty? I don’t know.
    • Update 4: Hi all. The car drives again! Haven't driven for long, only to store it in the garage again, but the test drive was successful. The coolant and oil leaks seem to be fixed for now. Temps on the engine were also very good, while moving I never even saw 80C water during the approx. 30 minute drive. Ate up all the coolant in the reservoir though so will have to fill that even more when I go to the car next time. One thing that pisses me off is that the RPM gauge is still f**ked, I even resoldered the board twice and used copper paste on the silly screws that are used as connections. Next time I take it out I'll take apart the board and fit new components, I'll see if I can get a replacement IC for it.  I have an appointment set for 22nd of September for the engine tune to 370hp. Alignment also still needs to be done. My hope is that I can get all the legal stuff over with by the end of this season. Anyone of you have advice regarding intercoolers? Currently there is an APEXI core fitted, one of those weird hybrid ones, 600x270x76. I don't think it's bad but it's not new and now I still have the chance to change it now to legally include it in the paperwork. Only issue is that the only options that would arrive in time are a HKS Type R intercooler or generic Ebay spec intercoolers comparable to a JustJap one. Ideally I'd order a Plazmaman but it takes over a month to receive which would mean making the car legal has to wait until next season. Would love to hear some input on this. Same story for my injectors, the previous owner was a nunce and put ID 1050x on the engine. They work but are obviously not ideal at "normal" power levels. But I don't see a reason to change them unless the tuner says it's necessary. I read online before buying a different exhaust that the top secret style rear diffusers won't fit due to the size of the rear resonators. My buddy and I made it work by slightly "adjusting the shape" of the mounting bracket and making some spacers out of 3d print for the mounting bolts. Fits like a charm. Just putting this here in case someone has this problem. Even the hefty HKS Silent Hi Power rear can fits without hitting anything.
    • Well they got my money but they are not getting my gearbox ! 
    • It's needed for rolling idle up, and I think it is a decider on VCT also.
    • I mean, not really. Link ECU's can absolutely still have errors from the ECU thinking it's getting a sensor it's not expecting. I would imagine the speed at the ECU level in Nistune does absolutely nothing anyway? I assume the ECU does not do any fancy TC stuff with regards to front+rear wheel speed or anything of that like anyway. Someone who uses Nistune may be more fluent in it.
