they can however it's better to remove them as the bolts that hold them in are pretty good as catching tyres if the car is low

also clearace is an issue... my tyres would hit the metal above on occasion so liners would have been destroyed anyway...

also it's a good idea to jimmy up something to hold the cables out of the way in the right front arch

this is true, Mine rubs the bolts occasionally coming in and out of driveways.

My thoughts too, but apparently not. While hard driving the lock seldom goes as far as while entering driveways. and the camber change is never that much on a road or track as it is coming up driveways.

Hey guys, Just had a quick read through this thread but couldn't really find anything about wheels for an r32 GTS-T coupe type M

- The guards aren't rolled or anything to my knowledge..

- I know nothing about offset/width and all that

I'm seeking advice on a nice sized wheel. I want 17" or might go 18"

The wheels on the car are ArchWheels.. So seedy they look like a spider web (bought with them on the car)

I have no idea what size they are, pretty sure they're 17's but the car is 110km away at my grandparents ready for a little makeover

So if you could give me some nice sizes with the specs etc.

Cheers Zane.

Anyone know the backspacing for standard r32 gtst wheels?

It looks like about 4 1/2 inches but im not sure.

Im liking these http://www.summitracing.com/parts/crr-3978912/overview/

But im looking at how very close the hicas knuckle is.

I know they are steel, but the only other ones i really like are about $4000 (gold fabulous racing)

Anyone have any experience with the follow size wheels on a R34 GTT?

F - 18*9+22 running 245//35//18 rubber

R - 18*10+30 with 265//35//18 rubber

I am looking at getting some wheels for my GTT, currently running stock suspensions (planning on lowering after I find the right wheels.)

I'm hoping for the wheels to sit as flush as possible with the guards. Would also like to avoid stretching rubber.

I'm prepared to roll guards when I lower the car, but I'm wondering if any further work would be required??

Cheers!

Anyone know if a 275 tyre would have a bludge or straight side wall with 9.5 inch rims. Any pics would be appreaciated

They sit straight on the rims! Look in my build thread somewhere and you will find a pic! Too lazy to go find it for you!

I am in the market for new rims for my r33 gts4 and have narrowed the selection down to two designs, work vs-xx or meister s1

in either 18x9 +15 or 18x9.5 +20, both sizes and offsets should fit ok but I'm not 100% sure.

easy.

Thoughts on this size?

Rota Grids (concave version)

18x10 +35 offset

with 235-40-R18 and 245-40-R18 tyres

With the old tape measure there will be a bit of poke on the front, but im more concerned with what it might

touch under the arches!?!

http://www.willtheyfit.com/index.php?width=215&aspect=55&diameter=16&wheelwidth=6.5&offset=40&width2=235&aspect2=40&diameter2=18&wheelwidth2=10&offset2=35&Submit=Submit

^with the 235 tyres for the front

Cheers guys!

18x10 +38 on the rear will be fine. Go 18x9 +30 on the front

You need to look back a few pages, try to find my post and pictures.

Short answer: Perfect. Get coilovers and slam it. I would change rubber to 225/45 and 245/45 personally for more low.

    • I don't understand how this hasn't boiled down to - Upgrade the turbo when you have everything required. ECU, injectors, fuel pump, turbo, etc. Do it all at once.  If you don't have everything required, just enjoy the car as it is and keep saving up your pennies. 
    • Sounds like you've got an interesting adventure ahead here with local support if you have trouble! My guess is that, unboosted, you will be OK with a small upgrade like -9. What will happen is that once the stock ECU sees more airflow than it expects it will add a heap of fuel and pull a heap of timing to be safe because it can't understand how it could get that much air without there being an issue. You will see clouds of black smoke and it won't pull hard through the midrange and top end. So, overall it will be a bit frustrating but should be OK. If you are still nervous set the base timing back 2o through the CAS, but it will be even more sluggish everywhere. As said above through...this is not my guarantee your engine won't be blown into a million pieces, leaving you looking for very hard to find parts A better idea is get a computer with logging ASAP, wire in a wide band O2 sensor and a use remote tuner. I've done multiple cars this way and while it is not as good as a specific tune on a dyno they can get it 90% right. I'd suggest if you can afford an R33 GTR these days you can afford an ECU and tune. And if you can't afford that you sure won't be able to afford the rebuild if it goes bad in the meantime,.  
    • Yeah it would be nice if someone took the time to put that sort of information together, but there are a lot of variations in looms. I think you are making this way hard for yourself if you just want to get it running....sourcing an SR20 with the right wiring will be a billion times easier than matching the RB loom to an S15 chassis. If you do end up going this way, you just need to trace every wire in the loom with a multimeter, 95% of them will go to a location you can confirm at the ECU.....and then post it up for the next person who needs it  
    • Just top it up with water, and keep a general idea of how much you added. It is normal for water to be pushed into and pulled out of the reservoir through the cap, and it should not be more than half full or it will be likely to overflow when hot. Any decent mechanic can do a pressure test of the cooling system to confirm if you have a leak. Keep in mind if it is only leaking a little and when hot it may well evaporate before you see it hit the ground
    • I'd ask the shop what they used and use that. Mixing coolants is sometimes OK, sometimes not, and you have know the details of each coolant to know whether it's a good idea or not.
