Thank you to everyone within this thread that answered my questions and provided info, and ultimately helped me select my new wheels (width and offset) Here's the end result (minus big brake kit awa

Thought I'd share my setup since there doesn't seem to be much info/examples out there for this particular setup. Perfect for spirited driving on back/mountain roads, not so ideal for daily driving or

Dont run staggered setup on GTR...and get the 10s +22 with a 265 tire. Should all sit in nicely front and back. Sorted.

Have a look back at my pics of 32 GTR, they are 10s all round +11R and +12F with 265s all round. Yours will sit in a full cm in comparison.

It's rolling diameter of tyres that have to be within 2-4% (can't remember exact percentage) otherwise ATTESSA stuffs up.

Width and offsets aren't the issue, a friend told me about a 34 GTR had 4wd issues and mechanic lined all 4 wheels and noticed 4 tyres are different (all are purchased brand new in same size all round), that was enough to stuff the 4wd up.

ah yeah, iv heard of that with the ATTESSA. Not about width differences tho. Having said that it is easy to changing said rolling diameters by unknown quantities as as 225/35/18 is not going ot have the same rolling diameter as a 275/35/18 right?....

does anyone know if 19x10 +20 will sit flush with r33 gtr guards?

It'll fit easily providing you low it.

also what size spacer to make r34 gtr wheels it sit flush with r33 gtr guards?

25-30mm spacers + low will have this wheels fit flush in 33 GTR.

Thanks

yeh wont fit that under stock front guards without stretch/camber/guard bashing.

i think its important that people dont just say "it'll fit fine" unless it actually will.

fitting and been made to fit are not the same. :thumbsup:

im considering putting 18x9+15 F and 18x9.5+22 R on my standard guard 33

any advice?

Seems like a pretty nice fit to look aggressive on standard guards

will need front guard liners removed, all 4 guards rolled, and 225/40/18 fr 235/40/18 r

guards may need a lil pull, depending on height

depeneding on how much camber you are running and how low you are id say you will still be able to get 255's on those in the rear...

iv got 18x9.5 +36 with 275's. As little camber as the standard arms offer + pretty low n there is heaps of room. only just needing to roll the guards...

you can put better 235's on there.

a high quality 235 will give more grip than a cheap 265

agreed. I think alot of people make this mistake.

But a sticky & fat tyre... :)

that is my new 275/35/18 Toyo Proxes4 on a 9.5" rim (+36). Minimum camber and lowered a fair bit (bodykit is 14mm at lowest points on the front lip and side skirts).

See heaps of room left in the guards but sitting pretty flush

      Rusty roof repair

      By Kinkstaah · Posted

      Nah that is not actually a lot. Just painting my GTR frontend and the little bits to make sideskirts/nismo flare pieces work correctly/fit on the sedan/mount up correctly came to about $7000. Is it a lot? Sure. None of this is economical. Economy would be shelling the car and buying a 2010 Corolla to commute in. The perspective of all of this is different.

      I don't see any issues here. I've been saying all along this is a big job, the price reflects that.  When the car comes back perfect I'm sure it will feel like money well spent.

      Remember, take original quote. Double it. Then add a bit more. It's how any project goes.

      Rusty roof repair

      By PranK · Posted

      So, I started this repair and got as far as "fixing" the holes with some fibreglass. God all those years working on boats came back quickly. I decided I'd reach out to some rust guys just to see what they would say about it. I came across a guy about 40 mins away and went to see him. He said the windscreen needs to come out, that there might be some more bits around the windscreen and he'd quote them at the time. But his quote was $300 to remove and replace windscreen and $3k for the damage he can see. He said he could respray the roof for $1200 and the bonnet for another $800 (somebody has previously rattle canned it, its horrendous). This is $5300 + any small additional bits. It's a lot, I get that and the name of one of my fave youtube channels 'Not Economically Viable' comes to mind.  I'm not being financially rational, but I've taken him up on the quote. He's opening a new shop in November with more room, so we're waiting for that. I'll leave the currently missing headliner out until then. I'm looking forward to it being fixed and having the paint looking nice again (lots of clear coat issues on the roof too). / flame suit on.
