^^^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......................

    • Ahhh, I need the whole head unit. I definitely needed to roll back through and review your setup, ha ha! Neat setup they have going on. I just need a full double din head unit. But I want good and responsive. I might have to review what the likes of pioneer have out these days.
    • Ok so after much research and talking with knowledgeable people I've got my turbo conversion done and it's all running great other than 1 small issue.  Car has remained auto with the na auto and tcm, I've used a stagea ecu with. NIstune board and everything is great other than my gear selection on the dash. It illuminates park, reverse, neutral, 3rd and 2nd. But nothing drive or what gear your in when you pop it into tiptronic.  I'm sure there is may e 1 wire in the ecu plug I need to move to rectify this. Dose anyone here have any ideas?   Cheers guys
    • Sorry I haven't been following all the detail, so you may have tried this. Does it idle with the tiniest bit of throttle you can add? You've mentioned the IACV, does it have an AAC valve and have you adjusted it at all (ie, screw the idle adjust screw all the way in, then back it out a couple of turns until idle is stable)?
    • My bad, I unplugged the one underlined in red instead of yellow before. With the car started, after unplugging the IACV (the one underlined in yellow), it idled at around 400/500 for 3 seconds before stalling. Attempting to start the car without the IACV will not start the car.   It does stutter and sputter for around 5 seconds before dying. However, immediately after starting it, you can already hear some slight sputters from the exhaust.   It won't start with the AFM unplugged. If it is when the car has already started, it stalls in a few seconds.   Yesterday, I did take some logs using Nistune of 3 scenarios. Car idling till it stalls Car idling and unplugging the IACV Car idling and removing the AFM I also have some previous logs of when the Car is idling till it stalls and when driving and it cuts. I am not really knowledgeable enough to understand what to look for. After every test, car idles rougher and rougher, until I have to stop. It will be fine the day after.
    • There is no difference between a 17x8 and an 18x8. The total diameter of the tyre needs to remain +/- the same (so you don't mess up the gearing, speedo reading, and clearance when turning front wheels..... so you just need to use a lower profile tyre on th 18 than you do on the 17. /rocket surgery.
