im running -2.8 atm, can't get anymore without getting some aftermarket LCA.

ahaha don't think i be slaming her just yet.

also i don't mind if they hang out ahahaha

sorry i didn't introduce myself at the dyno day today billy... i only worked out who you were when you drove off today lol

your car looks mint with those sizes, and the black worked sooooooo well!

Hi all,

I have 33 GTR, it's lowered with Cusco Zero2 coilovers.

I was wondering what would I need to do to my R if I want to put 18x10.5 +/-0 (there is a pair of SSR Sp1 in this size for sale on ns.com, that I'm tempted to buy this pair and order new pair)?

Or I may be better off buying 18x10 +18 and leave the ride height as is (345mm guard to centre front and 335mm rears)?

Thank you in advance.

Cheers

Grant

Seen heaps of people with 10.5 +12, so 10.5 +/-0 would need fair bit of work also 245/40/18 is alright for it to stretch over 10.5"?

I'm thinking roll the guards, lower it a bit more, anything else I may need to know?

I have 19x9.5" +12 (selling it now) rays fortessr, it fitted inside guards so would need to look at heaps of pics with 10.5 +12 to give me some ideas.

Cheers

245 will fit but it'll be a *bit* of stretch depends what your comfortable with i dont know much about stretch on gtr's since i gotta gtst... but yeh to make it fit, roll, stretch, low but possibly camber OR flare depends how it sits.. post a pic if u got one of 10.5 +0

Hmm...

Might have to make an time for inspection of the rims I mentioned earlier and see what I'm getting myself into.

Alex, thanks for your help.

Cheers

Im also really tempted to get those wheels.... I have an offer for my wheels but its a hard choice to make.

I'd need some crazy stretch 225/45 and some more guard work though.....

8mm slip on is huge.. get 10mm bolt on hubcentrics if u can
run 10mm hubcentric spacers ! are they concave front and rear ? post pics

so i ended up with 10mm bolt on hub centric spacers at the front :down:

only pic i have so far showing the fitment... comments welcome.

Skyline model = R33gts

Wheel diameter = 18"

Wheel width = 9.5"

Wheel offset = +12

Tyre size = front-235/40/18, rear-245/40/18

Modifications to fit = rolled lip front and rear, front plastic removed, rear camber arms (dont really have to have them, just helps)

    • 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.
