Typical Kiwi....

[Calaisxtyo]

hi there,

im from NZ and happened to come across your site and find it really interesting that you all know this much stuff. Now im a noob at this but im looking at dropping my 98 R34 with King lows and putting a set of 19" Eurohart C Form from Racing Hart on it. they are 9 on the back with 275x35.19" tyres and 8 on the front with 235x35.19".....you guys know ur stuff so do u think this would be ok? any problems that i may find, im in the process of doing it up now it has a C West wing at the mo and when i get the wheels and springs i think i will then look later on at maybe a bomex body kit.

What do you think?

btw: you guys have harsh rules but man your rides are phat

Those wheels will fit really well with no problems. I'd chose 265 for the rears as they match the rolling radius of the fronts (and doesn't affect the speedo at all)

[xRHETTx]

If you're from NZ have a look at www.skylinesdownunder.com its from new zealand.

But we're better.

wiked ride IanH....that car is smokin, so 265 would be better didn't know about that speedo thing thnx man.

thnx RHETT yeah, i found that place too but i couldn't find as much knowledge and info as i have seen in your forums, so ill probly stick around here a bit, i am lookin at different mags today so hope to have something rollin on my car soon but ill show pics

i have tiptronic, still drifts ok though, have a boost tap but the car doesnt like going over 1 bar...is that a problem? how can i fix it? and i may look at Tein platforms....are these ok shocks for the R34? instead of kings?or should i stick with the kings? man i really appreciate your feedback guys maybe i could catch up with some of you when im in oz around Sept..Oct

are you sure 19" could fit? over the weekend i had to do a suspension check since petrolium jelly started to ooze out of the front right suspension arm joint..eek however since the wheel was off ithought i might try and see if the old supra 20" rims would fit, stud pattern is the same however the wheel would of never have fit with the nissan suspension strut coming out and over the wheel with only about an inch clearence with the old stock 17" wheel. I beleived that 18" was as high as you could go......am i wrong?

[NJR 34GTT]

It doesn't like going over 1 bar because the stock turbo should not be boosting anywhere near that level. It is absolutely at its maximum efficiency at 12psi. You should lower the boost to 12psi and you will find you will make the same power, smoother and no more boost/fuel cuts.

[Calaisxtyo]

Hey RyanN yeah, they seemed aiight to me, i had them on this morning but not lowered and it seemed to be ok, the guy at the mag shop hasn't said it wouldn't work with that set up, he was the one that suggested it so i hope it will be fine else i will have to look at some 18's if i must cause i want it lower...but couldn't i just take that plastic stuff thats inside the wheels arches out aswell or is it best left on?

as for your advice on boost NJR thanx man, it seems to like it at 12 so i think ill leave it there, with my new wheels on anyway i doubt im gonna want to burn much rubber hahaha

i got a pic with them on for u 2 look at and give me an opinion if you like on what you reckon....the 3rd pic is sumthing i put on to see if bling was the thing, so let me know if u like them

[IanH]

I've got a piccy somewhere of a lowered GTT on 20's (on car domain in silver apparently too)

[Calaisxtyo]

wicked if u get a chance drop us a link IanH.....im waiting for the guy to let me know when those tyres come in so hope i have them on my ride soon cant wait....

[RyanN]

how the hell do they fit? :confused: must be a huge offset to clear that suspension strut and those nissan brake calipers.

[Calaisxtyo]

Got them on my car.....man im stoked it looks bloody good nice 19's and king low's, now all i need is the body kit but thats $2k away so ill wait on that, next is a Bomex front and carbon fibre bonnet, i also got a carbon fibre GT wing with the wheels and low kit....geez what a nice gf i have hehehehe......ill have to get it fixed to the car soon and sell my C-West wing now hehehehe, pics will be up tomorrow when i get the camera out, its raining here so no time......is there a place on these forums that peeps show off their rides? cause i luv my R34.....

[Phantom32]

yeah mate, theres a thread somewhere - general automotive? where ppl show pics of all their cars.
