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

how would 17x10 38 R with 265/40

17x9 22 F with 235/40 fit?? any scrub on cornering?

would I have better handling and comfort over the bumps with this combo compared to 18x9.5 15 with 235s all round? I have rolled guards and want it to be flush or close to it.

Yes, 18x8.75+20 front and 18x9.75+20 rear will fit. It will be nicely inside the guards, only a roll is neccesary. Roll is where the sharp edge on the inside of the guard is pushed up on itself to create a soft curve - so it doesn't chew your tyres.

Pump means pulling your guard out to fit bigger rims or larger offset. I don't think you want this.

how safe is it, that it will fit without scratching and so on?

On a 33? I ran 9.5 +13 and 10+11-15 can't remember. Just depends on rim style for front brake clearance

Hi peeps, the opportunity has come up to obtain a set of cheap 18s, 18x8 +35 for the front and 18x9 +33 for the rear

They will be fitted to my mrs r32 gtst, will this offset be too weak and sit too far in the guards? Thanks

whats the widest tyre you can go for a 17x10 38offset on r33 with rolled guards, im after maximum traction..

I have 18x10 +38 with 265s. Easy fit with rolled guards. Was thinking of trying to squeeze 285s in there when next due for tyres if I still have these rims.

depends how low, how much roll/flare, how stiff etc

i'd say 265 will be the limit unless you really push the guards.

pump the arches and 285 wuld be possible

flare and the sky's the limit

      What should I do next to hold the head on

      By Gareth87 · Posted

      I can see between the water jacket and cyl 3 there wasn't a hard line of combustion gas. It certainly appears that the issue is coming from there. Yes, checked the tension. All at 100ft lbs where I set them 5 years ago. These blocks can crack but generally when they have been over bored. Mine is only 0.5mm oversize at 89.5mm. They break between cylinders around the 91mm mark. No sign of that with mine. My gut feeling is the head gasket lifted a while back when the studs stretched and i bandaided it by retorquing the studs. It's finally let go.

      So, version 4 intake is on its way I was looking at these a while ago but at around $200 or more it was a little pricey for something that might not work, but, I had it in my watch list, but, I got a message saying it was on special, and I had a code thingie to use, it eventually came in at $120 delivered, so BAM, BUY NOW.....LOL I'll need to have a look when it arrives but I feel it will "look" better than what I currently have, as it comes with a PCV fitting, so I will be able to get rid of the alloy pipe that goes to the throttle body with the PCV fitting  Well, that's what the voices in my head are telling me  Oh, and this happened today Yeap, it was a Trojan, and it was cheap, so I headed back to the hardware store and actually spent a little bit more on a heavy duty,  one that was actually recommended by a plumber mate, a Cyclone one with a fibreglass handle that is actually rated for clay The broken shovel will eventually be "modified" into a short handle shovel
