hay i have got a question from a person that is really keen to buy my wheels The wheels are 17/8 and 17/9 the pcd is right and the offset is 38 on the front and 35 on the rear... will they fit over a gtr r32's calipers or generally fit?

i need a answer asap

i thank u very much in advance

regards hal

Standard R33 GTR is +22 offset and the rim is 17x9.

No its +30 as well and they will fit the 32 no problem .

When you buy aftermarket rims though even if the offset is right , they may or not clear the brakes you have to try them on .

But you have 8" rims ( front ) with +38 offset that means when you put them on the 32 R you will narrow the track by 8 mm on each side ( 16 mm all up ) and widen the rear track by 7mm on each side (14 mm total ). Would you want to do that ? I wouldnt , i would want to keep both the same and preferably widen both by a small margin .

If you use stock 33 or 34 rims you widen the track by 25 mm ( 12.5 on each side ).

you can`t use a different diameter front to back on any attessa 4wd car..so these are not suitable for gtr (8 and 9)

From the way I understand it, the problem is matching rolling circumference, not the diameter or width. The reason for that is that the wheels will rotate at different speeds if you have different rolling circumferences, which confuses ATTESSA.

You could have a 16" on the front and an 18" wheel on the back, and as long as the circumference is the same, you're ok.

no offence..but have you ever tried to match O.D. on different width rims..its near impossible..i`ve been going thru this for a while since my 260 turned up with same size wheels 17x7.5 but different offset front to rear,30-20 ..this is std setup... ,any of the aftermarket wheels that come up for sale with the correct offset are usually of a gts-t and i really wish it was easier to find 2 different width/profile tyres with the same O.D...but i`m yet to find them...

open to any suggestions :)

      R34 Skyline climate control unit transistor

      By sinn3r · Posted

      perhaps i should have mentioned, I plugged the unit in before i handed over to the electronics repair shop to see what damaged had been caused and the unit worked (ac controls, rear demister etc) bar the lights behind the lcd. i would assume that the diode was only to control lighting and didnt harm anything else i got the unit back from the electronics repair shop and all is well (to a point). The lights are back on and ac controls are working. im still paranoid as i beleive the repairer just put in any zener diode he could find and admitted asking chatgpt if its compatible   i do however have another issue... sometimes when i turn the ignition on, the climate control unit now goes through a diagnostics procedure which normally occurs when you disconnect and reconnect but this may be due to the below   to top everything off, and feel free to shoot me as im just about to do it myself anyway, while i was checking the newly repaired board by plugging in the climate control unit bare without the housing, i believe i may have shorted it on the headunit surround. Climate control unit still works but now the keyless entry doesnt work along with the dome light not turning on when you open the door. to add to this tricky situation, when you start the car and remove the key ( i have a turbo timer so car remains on) the keyless entry works. the dome light also works when you switch to the on position. fuses were checked and all ok ive deduced that the short somehow has messed with the smart entry control module as that is what controls the keyless entry and dome light on door opening   you guys wouldnt happen to have any experience with that topic lmao... im only laughing as its all i can do right now my self diagnosed adhd always gets me in a situation as i have no patience and want to get everything done in shortest amount of time as possible often ignoring crucial steps such as disconnecting battery when stuffing around with electronics or even placing a simple rag over the metallic headunit surround when placing a live pcb board on top of it   FML

      Bit of a pity we don't have good images of the back/front of the PCB ~ that said, I found a YT vid of a teardown to replace dicky clock switches, and got enough of a glimpse to realize this PCB is the front-end to a connected to what I'll call PCBA, and as such this is all digital on this PCB..ergo, battery voltage probably doesn't make an appearance here ; that is, I'd expect them to do something on PCBA wrt power conditioning for the adjustment/display/switch PCB.... ....given what's transpired..ie; some permutation of 12vdc on a 5vdc with or without correct polarity...would explain why the zener said "no" and exploded. The transistor Q5 (M33) is likely to be a digital switching transistor...that is, package has builtin bias resistors to ensure it saturates as soon as base threshold voltage is reached (minimal rise/fall time)....and wrt the question 'what else could've fried?' ....well, I know there's an MCU on this board (display, I/O at a guess), and you hope they isolated it from this scenario...I got my crayons out, it looks a bit like this...   ...not a lot to see, or rather, everything you'd like to see disappears down a via to the other side...base drive for the transistor comes from somewhere else, what this transistor is switching is somewhere else...but the zener circuit is exclusive to all this ~ it's providing a set voltage (current limited by the 1K3 resistor R19)...and disappears somewhere else down the via I marked V out ; if the errant voltage 'jumped' the diode in the millisecond before it exploded, whatever that V out via feeds may have seen a spike... ....I'll just imagine that Q5 was switched off at the time, thus no damage should've been done....but whatever that zener feeds has to be checked...

      Hah, fair enough! But if you learn with this one you can drive any other OEM manual. No modern luxury features like auto rev-matching or hillstart assist to give you a false sense of confidence. And a heavy car with not that much torque so it stalls easily.
