That looks nuts Nisskid. Love it!

I have a 32 GTSt. Guards are rolled and pumped a bit.

I have Advan RS 18x9 +22 with 235/40/18 street tyres. They scrub a little but not too much.

For the track I use R33 GTR wheels (17x9 +30) with 235/45/17 semi's. No scrubbing at all when at the track.

f**king love it, very tough :P

if guard mods dont worry u, go the -4 and modify the guards to fit.

depends what tyre u wanna run tho, personally i think 8" is too thin for the stretch fitment as to stretch a tyre properly u need to go into the 100's like a 195 or 185, u can get away with 205's, but even then i think they are a bit thin if ur wanting to go fast. if its just a daily, or a street skidder, then the 205 will be fine.

Skyline model = HR31 Passage GT

Wheel diameter = 17"

Wheel width = 9" (front and rear)

Wheel offset = +15

Tyre size = 235/45R17

Modifications to fit = front guards rolled

could do with a ~15mm spacer on the rear.

this is a close up of a 17x9 +30 on the front, will be fairly similar to a 17x8.5 +30

your guards may need a roll depending on alignment and suspension. mine was very borderline at the rear with stock arms (fair bit of camber). front i had no issues with, but that was because my suspension never compressed enough to really push the tyres into the guard. so i would try them on, and see if u can get away with them, if not get ur guards rolled and ull have plenty of clearance.

can sumbody please confirm that 19x10.5 +9 Volk GTC face 1's will fit on a r33 GTR with standard brembo brakes.

Also what size tyres will i need

Skyline Model = r32 2 door

Wheel diameter = 17

Wheel width = 9

Wheel offset = +22

Tyre size = 235 front 255 rear

Modifications to fit = role heck out of guards. mainly because front of car is so low and rear tyres are too wide

hey guys been reading through this

need help

from what i gather (have a r34 gtt 2 door)

if im after 18s and want to avoid modifications, safer to go with 18 x 8s ? rather than say 18 x 8.5 or 18 x 9.5

will 18 x 8s also allow me a lower offset? from what i gather this would be the case? and this would mean a deeper dish effect? would this look good?

correct me if im wrong

also atm my car rides high at stock height, if i get rims i'd lower it a bit... does this help or detract?

cheers!

dish comes from distance between disk, and the outside of the barrel, this same distance determines the wheels clearance from the gaurd. if u just want clearance, go 6" wide with +40 offset. my point being u need to provide us with a bit more details, do u want the wheels to sit up near the guard? do u want wide tyres? etc etc

after speaking to a couple ppl, i've changed my mind, i am willing to roll the guards now

if i did 18 x 8.5 front and 18 x 9.5 back

would this fit on my car and with wat sort of offset, i was looking at +15 or +22 ?

regards to tyres i don't have too much knowledge on tyres atm but from what i've read here for the tyres im after im thinking 255/35/18 for front and for back 265/35/18

would this be a nice look withou being too bumpy a ride?

    • You just need to remove the compressor housing, not the entire turbo. I would not be drilling and tapping anything with the housing still on anyways. 
    • So, I put my boat on a boat. First of all, I'm going to come out and say it. Why is Tasmania not considered a holy goal, an apex that all road-legal modified cars go to, to experience? This place is an absolute wonderland of titanic proportions. If people are already getting club runs for once in a lifetime 30 person cruises to Tassy then I've never seemed to see it. It is like someone replaced the entire place with an idyllic wonderland for cars, and all of the people living there with paid actors who are kind, humble, and friendly. Dear god. After doing a lap of almost all of the place I've found that it's a great way to find out all of the little things that the car isn't doing quite right and a great way to figure it all out. All in all, I drove for 4 hours a day for a week and nothing broke. I didn't even need to open the engine bay. This is by all means a great success, but it has left me with a list of things to potentially address. I also now have a 3D printed wheel fitment tool which annoyingly hasn't got any threads in it to actually assemble it. I might be able to tape it together to check the sizing I actually want to use, but it'll likely involving pulling the shocks out to properly measure travel at least at the front, and probably raise the car while I'm at it, at least in the rear. I scraped on quite a few things and I'm not sure how else to go about it. I was taking anything with a bump at what felt like 89 degree angles. And address those 10 other tasks. And wash the car. God damn it is dirty. And somehow, the weather was perfect the entire time - And because I was on the top of Mt Wellington it turns out it was very much about to freeze up there. I did something I typically never do and took some photos up there in what must have been -10 and the foggy felt like suspended ice, rather than mere fog. If you own a car in Australia, you owe it to yourself to do it.
    • Damn that was hilarious, and a bit embarrassing for skylines in general 😂 vintage car life ey. That R33 really stomped. Pretty entertaining stuff
    • Hi, I have a r32 gtr transmission. Does any of you guys have an idea how much power it will hold with the billet center plate and stock gearset? At what power level and use did yours brake with or without billet plate? Thanks, Oystein Lovik
    • Saw this replica police car based on a Mitsubishi Starion XX parked next to a 'police box' (it's literally a box) in Hirohata, Himeji City in Hyogo prefecture the other day. It's owned by Morii-san who is a local Mitsubishi Starion enthusiast. According to a local radio station blog post, he always wanted to make a police car himself based on ones he saw in his favourite Manga comics.  As it's illegal to modify a car to look like a police car and drive on the road, Morii-san tried many times to get permission from Aboshi police station headquarters nearby. They refused initially by after they got tired of that they granted him permission. However, the car can only be displayed on private property and obviously can't be registered as long as the police livery is present. The car was completed at a cost of 1.5 million yen (US$ 10,000) in addition to the car cost. A location was chosen outside Hirohata Police box where the car can easily been seen from the street. Morii-san has two other Starion road cars, both widebody GSR-VRs.
