School me on extended lugs for my Skyline. The fronts are easy to come by, but I am hearing mixed things about the rears. Can you guys confirm or deny:

- The rear studs are a different spline than the fronts.

- My car shares studs with the 300zx.

- What is the stock lug shank length?

- How thick of a spacer can I safely run with the stock lugs?

I am working on fun summer wheel options and the wheels I am keen on will require a 10-12mm spacer.

Any help is appreciated, thanks all.

Whether or not you need extended studs will depend on your wheel type. My Stagea has different front and rear splines.If you are using aftermarket wheels you may need hub centric adapters as well. When buying studs (if required) the advertiser should be able to tell you what they fit. 10mm spacers should be  hub centric like this (you will also find extended studs on this site):

I'm looking at BBS LMs currently. I have the hub-centric stuff handled (I work in the VW world and we deal with that as well). So far, the stud sellers are able to indicate how much longer than stock (i.e.- 10mm, 20mm, etc).

and, if you look at the site I sent you, the diameter. If you don't know what size your studs are email GK Tech and ask. On my Stagea the rears are bigger than the fronts.

Just looked over their site, they have a handy chart in each lug listing and have options for the front and the rear. Thank you for that link!

      RB20DE NEO smallbox clutch.

      So either way it is gearbox out and look what is wrong?  I know about the input shaft bearing. Even before swap/new clutch the it sounded exactly like this: So is that inout shaft bearing or the other was installed backwards?  And can some please tell me the part number for that input shaft bearing? The gearbox is small box from R34 N/A and number is FS5W71C. Thank you

      I am yet to see anyone ever regret a quaife or helical. ...other than drifting/skidpan duties. I kind of want to upgrade my factory helical with a Quaife (but really it's not ultimately that different, and is a MASSIVE UNDERTAKING), that's how good the hype is about them, that I want to try them 'just to see'

      D2 and Ksport are essentially the same thing and basically just generic Taiwanese manufacture. Better than ChinaBay crap, but... not top shelf. Öhlins have got to be some of the best dampers around, so likely to be a good option. It's going to get to the point though where I suggest you buy from Oz. We have at least 2x excellent options here. If I were you though, I'd be talking to KW about doing something for the R33. There's bugger all difference between that and the 32. In GTR land, anyway.

      KW only offers a set for the R32 GTR. Popular options are D2 racing, Ksport or Öhlins. I have a D2 Racing coilover set, though I don't know for sure which one.

      Well, the good news is you have more than one very good option for new coilovers in and around your country. Worth the drive over to KW to talk about GTR stuff.
