you are, offset is very different to width.

for example James Vahoumis S14.5 has 40mm overfenders on the rear, his wheels hang out of the guards, with something like a -15 offset, but they are only 10s on the rear.

having dish, and hanging out of a guard doesnt always correlate to wheel width.

You picked .5" by eye, based only on the fact that they hung out of the guards too much?

C'mon, they could have just as easily been +17, then they would have been 10" instead of 10.5.

on another note, seems strange that the rears are +24 (104.6mm from wheel outer edge) and fronts -10 (120.25 from wheel outer edge). Would make more sense if it was the other way around - giving much greater dish on the rears than the fronts. (edit: as per pic above)

if u read the above post u'll find that the front offset comes to -10 im GUESSING after the 40mm spacers, hence they would be 30+ offset which yes would make much more sense...im just regurgitating what i was given...when did i ever say i based the fact they were larger because they hung out of the gaurds? :S

... and i very much doubt they are 10" and 9"...with that amount of wide body im sure there bigger...

thats where, offset will determine how much dish, not spacers. If you look at the wheels, the rears have more dish than the fronts, therefore, given they are the same wheel, it would be logical to assume that the rears are the -10, not the fronts - regardless of how much spacer there is.

by saying "with that amount of wide body im sure there bigger" i was refering that it could handle much more offset and hence bigger wheels...ie. not put some pizza cutters on with huge negative offset...

and i agree with u on the offset looking weird, but this is what wiplsh himself told me...with the front offset im sure he meant the offset came to -10 once the spacer was put on...because yes there would be a ridiculous amount of dish if it was -10 on a 9" wheel...

"I think i got the offset written around the right way."...he may possibly have written it around the wrong way lol

    • I've never played with one, but I would expect that you are correct. That slot looks like it is intended to be used to unscrew the end, and the flats on the body would be better than grabbing it around the round bit with a pipe wrench. So, yeah, probably unscrews. You'll probably have to make a tool to drive in that slot.
    • A bit late but A disk S13P fit over stock R32 GTR brakes, usually A disk front, O disk rear works.
    • Or, the height of the release bearing is not correct for your combo. Start with the bleeding and checking the slave moves throughout its range when you press the pedal (2 person required), but it is possible for the height to be internally wrong too (box back off to measure.
    • Yes, there's quite a few things that can go wrong during a clutch install. Very unlikely. I have a similar clutch. They (ACS) make good gear. No, it is not normal. It is possible that you just need to bleed the clutch slave. But the new clutch will also have a more aggressive actuation force/pressure, and so your old slave cylinder might be a bit leaky or otherwise compromised, and not up to the extra force required. Or the master cylinder, same.
    • Hi...so a "development" here aswell The swap is "done" and car went "test drive" BUT it seems the clutch(maybe gearbox?) is a little bit sad? I bought this clutch kit https://justjap.com/products/xtreme-heavy-duty-organic-clutch-flywheel-kit-nissan-skyline-r31-r32-r33-push-type "Problem" is that the first gear is hard to put into and it seems that the clutch is not disengaged. It was not the problem with the old clutch...(or like sometime the first gear would not get as easy specialy when the fluid was cold) So? Can it be like...bad "install" or is the clutch wrong ((it should not have been) i done research to get the right one) Or is this "normal" with new clutch and needs to be break in?
