R32 gtst 2 door

Advan RG2's 18x9 +29 all round.

235/40 Sumitomo's (minimal stretch)

Suspension lowered to minimum legal height ( pretty high )

Front guards untouched, rears slightly rolled but wouldn't need to be.

Rims sit flush with guards, perfect fitment.attachicon.gifimage.jpg

I hate you. I was watching these on eBay and had offered him cash when he told me they were sold. Dude had them on his Evo yes? They look great!

Edit: If you ever decide to sell - me first!

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

Opinion time. Deep dish rims for an r34 gtt. 18 inch or 19 inch (the rims look smaller with big dish)

18's would require pretty low ride height to achieve stance.

Going to be running 10-10.5 width at the front, and 10.5-11 at the rears.

Tyre size = 225/40/18

Lowered= yes, on king lows/bilsteins. not slammed.

Camber = whatever is possible with the stock eccentric bolts and arms. Not interested in mega camber.

Should be fine. Keep in mind rolling guards done properly will have no negative impact at all

Skyline model = 1996 R33 GTST

Wheel Brand = Volk TE37

Wheel diameter = 17"

Wheel width = 9"

Wheel offset = +22

Tyre size = 235/45/17

Modifications to fit = None (front wheels lightly nudge front bar at full lock, otherwise fine)

Hi mate,

Just wondering if you managed to do anything to fix this?? Was it much of an issue?? Looking at doing exactly the same for mine =)

Cheers!!!

Hi everyone!

Car: 1998 R33 GTST

Wheel brand: BBS LM replicas

Wheel diameter: 19"

Wheel width: 8.5 F, 9.5R

Offset: +20

Mods to fit: Fronts needed a 3mm spacer(spokes rubbed on the NISSAN writing)

Rears sit outta the guards still, the guards have bee rolled I think. Is there a way I can somehow "pull" the rear guards out by a couple of mm so they fit??

The only problem with running those sorts of widths on the fronts on a gtt is the lack of guard. I had 9.5+22, and I had to remove the front liners for scrapage problems - and they sat completely flush with the guards. Now the issue here is, with a wider tyre, and non mexican spec, you will need a large offset, which you can't do as it will eat your suspension. I can't remember how much clearance I had with mine on, but I don't think there is much room for movement.

To get 10.5 to fit up front you will need something like +10 offset, 245/40 or less tyres, pumping guards, big camber, etc. Cause it will look mexican as fark with no camber.

Rears are 10.5+22 with natural camber and they sit nicely on the guard.

Rears shouldn't be out of the guards on those specs are u stock height? What size tyre?

Tyres are 265 35 19's

Car has tein coilovers, so it's lowered but not to excess....

Guards have been rolled a little(stuff all) but I can see where the tyres have scrubbed the guards on occasion :/

I will try and post photos(not working for some reason)

265 is a big tyre drop down a size still well within legal and should fix the problem I think

I have gtr front fenders, and the rears are pumped and rolled +40mm.

Currently running 18x9.5 +15 all round.

Depenging on how much extra poke you want will depend the offset obviously.

I would go 18's, because of the possible slammage. 19's fit the wheel guard better, but also limit how low you can go.

Anyway 10.5+27 is essentially the same fit as what you have now, so depending how wide you want to go. I am not familiar with GTR fenders, but I believe they are around 20mm wider than GTT.. How wrong am I? Based off 20mm wider, I would go 10.5+15, which is 13mm more poke then what you have now.

On the rears... 40mm pump. Oh this is going to be sexy.

You could go 18x12+0? Or 18x11-12. The 11's are going to give dish all day, all week, probably most of next month.

      No, your formula is arse backwards. Mine is totally different to yours, and is the one I said was bang on at 50 and 150. I'll put your data into Excel (actually it already is, chart it and fit a linear fit to it, aiming to make it evenly wrong across the whole span. But not now. Other things to do first.

      God damnit. The only option I actually have in the software is the one that is screenshotted. I am glad that I at least got it right... for those two points. Would it actually change anything if I chose/used 80C and 120C as the two points instead? My brain wants to imagine the formula put into HPtuners would be the same equation, otherwise none of this makes sense to me, unless: 1) The formula you put into VCM Scanner/HPTuners is always linear 2) The two points/input pairs are only arbitrary to choose (as the documentation implies) IF the actual scaling of the sensor is linear. then 3) If the scaling is not linear, the two points you choose matter a great deal, because the formula will draw a line between those two points only.

      Nah, that is hella wrong. If I do a simple linear between 150°C (0.407v) and 50°C (2.98v) I get the formula Temperature = -38.8651*voltage + 165.8181 It is perfectly correct at 50 and 150, but it is as much as 20° out in the region of 110°C, because the actual data is significantly non-linear there. It is no more than 4° out down at the lowest temperatures, but is is seriously shit almost everywhere. I cannot believe that the instruction is to do a 2 point linear fit. I would say the method I used previously would have to be better.

      R33 Fuel Pump & Brakes after alarm swap

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      When I said "wiring diagram", I meant the car's wiring diagram. You need to understand how and when 12V appears on certain wires/terminals, when 0V is allowed to appear on certain wires/terminals (which is the difference between supply side switching, and earth side switching), for the way that the car is supposed to work without the immobiliser. Then you start looking for those voltages in the appropriate places at the appropriate times (ie, relay terminals, ECU terminals, fuel pump terminals, at different ignition switch positions, and at times such as "immediately after switching to ON" and "say, 5-10s after switching to ON". You will find that you are not getting what you need when and where you need it, and because you understand what you need and when, from working through the wiring diagram, you can then likely work out why you're not getting it. And that will lead you to the mess that has been made of the associated wires around the immobiliser. But seriously, there is no way that we will be able to find or lead you to the fault from here. You will have to do it at the car, because it will be something f**ked up, and there are a near infinite number of ways for it to be f**ked up. The wiring diagram will give you wire colours and pin numbers and so you can do continuity testing and voltage/time probing and start to work out what is right and what is wrong. I can only close my eyes and imagine a rat's nest of wiring under the dash. You can actually see and touch it.
