I would go adjustable arms all round. I went bushes and maxed them all out. Cannot get less than 1.7 degrees rear, nor more than 2.6 front. These numbers is general aren't to bad, but it would be nice to have further adjustment.

Hey guys I have a question.

At the moment I have 20x10 inch rims on the rear of my r33 gtst.

I have asked to order a set of 20x9 cause the 10's are to wide.

I was wondering what offset I will need for the 9's ?

Wow, I have driven a 34 with 20's, it was terrible! Too firm, scrubbed and scraped... I assume its a show car right?

Nah it's my daily car.

I wanted 19's but apparently I couldn't get them so I got 20's instead

Fair enough mate! I am sure the offset gurus will be in here soon enough! I am useless :P Just shocked to see 20x10's lol

Yeah I wanted 19x8 for the front and 19x9.5 for the rear.

But they couldn't get the an said they can get a staggered set of 20's.

But they didn't tell me how wide there going to be

You got pics? Just out of curiosity?

I got some volk gtc 17 x 9 +35 for my R32 gtst

they dont have tyres yet and im curious how wide i can go on the back

I have searched this thread a lot and cant find the offset of the stock wheels so i can calculate the difference

Anyone know the offset of the 32gtst wheels?

Oh.. i forgot google.... doh! im so used to finding everything on sau

So..

GTST 16 x 6.5 +40

GTR 16 x 8 +30

Thanks, sorry, whatever. :blush:

I don't know the offset to the 20x10's I don't know how to work it out but the rim sticks out past the guard and the cops are picking on me for it so I want to put some 20x9's on the rear and want to run a 255/30r20 tyre

written on the back of the rim

After some info for fitment of Varrstoen 2.2.1 on a R34 4 door - 9.5" version.

Best I can find so far seems to be - +30 with a 235/30/18, it won't hit the guard at all and it won't have poke. Ideally you'd want 9" +25 front with 235/40 (v little stretch) and 10" +35 rear (with 265/30/18). Or 9" +25 front and rear.

Don't know the specs on this, but I want to get it close to flush, but not sitting outside the guards at all.

Being a daily, I want to keep it as legal as possible while looking the way I want it too.

I've email Varrstoen, with no reply. I'm running 18x8 or 8.5 at the front now and they scrub when turning around a bumpy corner, but not at all during normal driving. The front guards have been rolled slightly by the previous owner, but nothing too extreme, no guard lining at all.

I've seen how R34 GTR rims sit, they are 18x8 +30 from memory? Looking for that sort of fit. As much as I'd love to poke the rims and stretch the tyres, being a daily its got to be reasonably tame

    • Actually everyone on the roads was really well behaved. The only person that did any minor tailgating was a local hoon in a Turbo Focus. Unfortunately we weren't going the same way so there was no grand initial D touge battle. Lots of people pulled over and let me through. The amount of "Hey man nice car, omg skyline, nice 34 man woo" was suprising. Like really suprising. Like almost annoying. My partner was obviously surprised, she'd never seen anyone in the real world point out the car/like the car/want to chat about the car before, so to have like 3 people per day mention it was notable, I could finally say SEE? SOMEONE THINKS THEY'RE COOL. Everyone was also pretty suprised about the weather. Every day was dry and about ~13-14C. Mount Wellington had a sign that said they close the gates at 9pm and I was heading up there at about ~7:30. It was VERY apparent that conditions were getting significantly worse by the minute on the way up and down. The road on the mountain was terrible though, it's no driving road. I have various suspension related questions now. Luckily it was only about 20 minutes from where we were staying to the top of the mountain as said Google maps. We only had the 2 nights in Hobart. We went to the Farm Gate Market though which was really good - And went down to the Hastings Thermal springs/caves down there during the day. I'd definitely be up for going back again, so luckily there's a few more sights yet to see. Didn't get to do the west coast/queenstown/cradle mountain so this was supposed to be a 'scouting' trip anyway of sorts if I were to one day do/take part in/organize a more car-focused trip. As for the boat, it wasn't bad. Well it was bad, but not in the way you're thinking. We did the night trip which leaves at 6:45 (though you have to be there ~2 hours earlier) and arrives the next morning at about 6am. There is nothing to do on the ship. If you plan accordingly and bring a book/tablet/show to watch/charger you can just chill out, take some Travacalm and just sleep through it. The food there is an extremely basic buffet that costs $32 a plate, or $14 for a $3 pizza. The way back we had a travel kettle and a few different types of cup noodles and made our own tea/coffee in the room. This was a far superior way to do it. At the very least book one of the rooms with beds. I guess as we were in the off season we didn't have room mates. You get an option for rooms with 4 beds (2x bunks) or a room with just the two bottom beds. There's also some option for a deluxe queen bed but it's much pricer. We've been on sleeper trains in Asia before so we figured this is similar (and it was)
    • You just gotta be really, really, really clear and decisive with what you want your end product to be. 99% of people who want this conversion aren't "I want to run a 295 front tyre!" so they don't really need the widebody. They just want the OEM body to look a little less dumpy, so bonnet, bar, skirts job done with some camber, stretch, slam. It's when you want that, but then decide to pivot later you get big problems. See also if you're willing to get an all in one fibreglass bar, and you're willing to accept fibreglass problems like cracking the entire item on a driveway, instead of just a piece attached to the bottom, etc etc etc. Decide this all before buyin'.
    • After @Kinkstaah debacle, I'd never want to try and get it right 😛
    • The hood lines up with the fenders. The front bar doesn't perfectly line up with the fenders where the wheel arch is. You have to 'squeeze' the front bar 'in' as it wants to naturally flare out and be longer on the sides. There's a few threads where people notice this when they only swap a GTR style bumper and front bar. Unless you have genuine OEM items - you may be better served getting conversion kits. There are GTT bumpers to fit GTR hoods. There are GTR hoods (non genuine) to fit the GTT bracketry. MAY
