Okay thanks. So the 255/40 is slightly smaller than the 235/45. Obviously this would have an effect on the speedo reading. would this still be a good option for the rear, or am i better off sticking to 235/45 all round? Intended use is track days, hillclimbs etc, with occasional street driving (ie. to and from the track)

Cheers.

hey guys scratchin my head on whether to grab a set of wheels. i want just a clean fitment basically flush with the stock guards with just a roll and lowered.

fronts are 8.5 +30 i know these will sit nice and flush

rears are 9.5 +40

now are these going to sit in to far that they will look complete odd and different when compared to the front or are we talking 5mm will make a match. or is 9.5 +30 what i really want to match the front? because i could live with 5mm but probably not 10.

basically there a good buy and been searching for a while

cheers coops

Go 225/40R18 and 255/35R18 for the same rolling diameter as stock :blink:

well going by that then im better off going 9 +22 all round so they sit +14 more fronts and +12 on the backs making it sit flush

being Te37s as well theyll have the concave look and not look so crap

agree?

9 +22 all round is a much better option as long as you have clearance to your struts :)

  • 2 weeks later...

Skyline model = r34 gtt

Wheel diameter = 19inches

Wheel width = 8 front 9 rear

Wheel offset = +23 front +9 rear

Tyre size =215 front and 225 rear

Modifications to fit = everything lol, flare, roll, pump, remove inner plastics.

next set of rims will be even more ridiculous probs go bolt on flares

Hey Guys,,, :D

Sorry.. Bit of a noob when it comes to tyres etc

I'm chasing some tyres for an 18x10.5 rim (Rear)

Would someone be able to suggest what size tyre i should be chasing?

For an R34Gtt Running Full Cusco Coilovers and arms etc

Guards will be rolled...

I just ordered 265/35R18s for 10.5 +30s on the rear of mine :(

235/40R18 is a good option for you as well.

Skyline model = R32 GTS-T

Wheel diameter = 17" enkei RPF1

Wheel width = 8.5" front and rear

Wheel offset = +30 front and rear

Tyre size =215/50/17 front and 225/45/17 rear

Modifications to fit = none. and the fronts rubbed the guards quite badly. didnt want to have to modify guards as i've seen other r32s with modified guards and they look terrible, unless converted to genuine GTR guards. so i got rid of these wheels lol

    • Stock RB fuel pressure is near enough 43.5 psi, so the latency in that table at 31.6 will be close. You can see that 7 or 8 psi equates to about 0.4µs extra latency. So if you wanted to interpolate between the 31.6 and 39.9 psi values you could say you're going up about 2 psi out of those 8, so add about 0.1µs, which is barely worth talking about and is quite possibly wrong because ideally you would fix the latency while running at the appropriate conditions on the dyno, with a wideband sniffing its butt.
    • The pressure, is what you set the fuel pressure to. If you have the factory fuel reg, you'll need to find the factory spec. I don't know it off the top of my head, but someone else might.
    • For others, what GTSBoy states here should be paid attention. Why? Well lots of people play with different engines, and they LOVE to change things like remove AC, or steering pumps etc, and it lends to them needing to move the tensioner too. You want your tensioner, particularly those that are sprung or hydraulically tensioned, to be the first thing after the harmonic balancer, or technically the "last" pulley in the chain. By saying last pulley, I mean look at the direction the crank spins when the engine is running, follow the belt from where the crank is pulling the belt FROM, and keep following that until you're between the last pulley/accessory on the belt and about to reach the crank again, this is the spot where you put the tensioner. This is the area that will always end up with slack. This is worked out exactly the same way for chains too, as the physics is the same for them. The crank pulley is where all the force to drag the belt around comes from. You will never ever get rid of the slack that appears, especially under load. The tensioners job is to keep the belt loose enough when stationary that there shouldn't be out of sync movement in slow movement, and then be tight enough when running, that the belt can't jump off any gear and get damaged. Too tight, bad things happen, too loose, bad things happen. Have a tensioner (mainly sprung/hydraulic one) in the wrong spot, it can't actually do anything about keeping the tension.
    • It was gonna take much longer for the 440cc so I'd thought I'd risk it with the 550cc. They finally arrived and I couldn't wait any longer (I could but I was quite excited after 2 months) and installed them myself. Removed the old injectors, inserted the new and connected everything up. Before starting the car, I tuned the injector size from the factory 270cc to 550cc using Nistune.   This did some of the calculations automatically which catered for the TIM. The latency however did not seem to change. Deatschwerks have the tuning data available for each injector online, and I had a look at it. It has a table which relates to latency according to pressure and voltage (see below image). Nistune requires the 14v value, but I am unsure of which pressure value to look at (my lack of knowledge and experience have something to do with this). The highlighted value is close to my current latency which is 760µs. It is for 14v which makes sense, and the pressure is 31.6 Psi.   I still gave the car a test drive to see how it goes, and honestly it has never felt so powerful before (and some people say the RB20DE is very weak?). I really enjoyed the drive. Side note; The injectors are quite noisy, which someone mentioned before. This does not really bother me however. I will still ask my mechanic to have a look at it and perhaps ask a tuner to fine tune it if they have the knowledge.
    • Also true. But imagine not wanting new injectors? Imagine wanting to use 30 year old injectors?
