Anyone know what could make an r33 rear axle sit slightly over from where it should be? IE rear left wheel poked out, rear right wheel sunken ~25mm? Collapsed bushings?

something like that....has it taken a hit in the rear side on? usually moves the subframe but thats def where i would be looking!

have you had the car in for alignment checks?

If that's the case is that repairable? I've had it into Pedders before for alignment and suspension install and they never mentioned it.

I took it back to them thinking one side ride height was off but he said it was normal, and then said the rear end looks like it's tightened off to one side.

Nissan factory.... although normally not 25mm

there was a discussion about this a while back and many R33 owners came forward and noted that their car was like this.

Seems to be something normal and unproblematic and not (necessarily) because or a kerb bash and subframe and alignment damage.

Tho not to say that this isnt the case with your car or some examples of this one wheel sitting out furhter that the other...

sure not 235/40?

will look good man.... just be careful not to pull the front guards at all when you lip them and give the rears a good nudge from way up inside and they should both sit flush

Ok, they have 35 on them apparently , (2nd hand) so ill have to factor that in, could be a miss type on his end,

might be a 245/35 that's also reasonably common and will work but not quite as well as a 235/40... bombtrack is running them on his 9.5's with no hastles

I'm guessing 17x8 +5 on the front of a 32 gtst won't have enough caliper clearance? My 16x8 +0 didn't fit my front without a 15mm spacer...

The 17x8 +5 in question a stich mesh wheels.

depends on the brand...

with most jap rims caliper clearance is not affected by offset, rather by face

Thanks, you have a point, I've since found out that it would fit :)

I've been trying to source a set of r33 gtr rims for my 32 gtst. What sized tyres would be good? I usually run 235/45/17 with my other set that are 17x8.5 +30, the gtr rims are 17x9 +30 if I'm not mistaken. Could I fit a wider tyre in the back than a 235?

What are 18s going to sit like on a 34 gtt with

9.5 fronts +30 and

9.5 +12 rears?

Tires will only be

235 - 35 F

255 - 35 R

That's what I plan on running on my 34 cept +20 rears, I measured the +20s should be flush... I plan on running very little camber though as im tryin to get 500hp to the ground!

I ran 9.5+12 with a low car (tyres just tucked) and 320rwkw... had very little camber on the rears and had to massage the inner guards a little to get it to fit with a 235/40

    • Don't even try to run it on the stock ECU if you're going to have the boost controller bring boost above ~10 psi. I've already told you that. If you use the Nistune ECU, you will need to CAREFULLY read the available documentation for Neo tuning, and read some threads on the Nistune forums, to discover the various things you have to do to prevent the ECU from going bananas when the boost is too high. The is a table associated with th boost sensor that must be modified to prevent it from shitting the bed. This is just one of the things that you will need to do to the tune in Nistune, because the Neo turbo ECU will be expecting to see a number of things (such as the TCS) that are not there, and you have to block the DTCs on those. It is totally not surprising to me that you are having the problems that you are, but the solutions to these problems have been known for >15 years. So just get it done.
    • Hi. Sry iam not a mechanic and iam not at the car atm so i dont know 100% but they told they measure those and even try to change those. AFM they have two. Coils are new a they have my old one too. Plugs too. ECU...we have 25 NEO stock and Nistune 25 NEO.   But i dont know if any one those could be the problem and why/if/what can cause this, Only thing they did not check is fuel...but that walbro 255 is new(like 1,5 years)... That fuel pressure gauge idk...but i let them know Any suggestions?   EDIT: how can they know if it is like you say he ECU pull power when it reaches a specific boost level that is too high? Tha car has boost controler
    • Can you clarify what you mean by boost cut, do you mean it misfires both when under load (driving) and when stationary and out of gear? Or does the ECU pull power when it reaches a specific boost level that is too high (boost control issue)? Does it occur at idle with no throttle? When you say "the ECU is OK", what ECU is it and why do you think it is OK? Have you used the NEO ECU, and if so do you have a MAP sensor attached? Same for the AFM, why do you think it is OK? Do you have any way to put a fuel pressure gauge on it (even just a mechanical one between the fuel filter and fuel rail)?
    • Hi.. Just another problem. So maybe you can help. I(my mechanic) done swap from my RB20DE NEO to RB25DET NEO. Everything is OK but we have a boost cut. Coils/Plugs are ok...AFM is ok. ECU is ok. I have Walbro 255 but it "changed" sound few months ago(you can hear it ouside) you did not hear that when it was new(maybe faulty?) Sooo...what now? What can cause this boost cut? It is even when you standing still...
