There has been alot of people who have wanted to fit rims with a R33 GTR offset to a GTS-T. Does anyone know if it is possible to remove or shave a little (eg 10mm) off the wheel where it mounts to the hub to change the offset? So in effect bringing the wheel back inside the arch...?

Boost, i think that answers the question. There is no way an inch could be taken off the hub (even half from the wheel and half from the hub sounds like too much), so i guess i'll just have to save up and get those Volk racing rims... :D

What the...

I have R33 GTR rims with semi slicks I use for track work, and they fit perfectly. I have NEVER heard of any offset problems with fitting R33 GTR rims to an R33 GTS-t.

R34 GTR rims however will NOT fit, because they are 18x10" rims and are just way too wide for the front guards.

R33 GTR rims are 17x9" rims.

I'm sorry, but I don't have any photos of my car with the track rims on... I'll have to take some. :(

Bonkers or Red900ss took a photo of my car at a trackday that they posted on here, but I can't find it, and I didn't save it :P

i spoke to a suspension place and he told me that i can lower my car and it wheel camber so they well fit under.Not sure if it will be okay though.Also mine arnt original gtr wheels ,there sparco's that have a offset to suit a gtr ,Not sure on the width they may be wider than stock 33 gtr ,thats why they stick out so bad.

Thanks everyone who has replied to the post.

Thanks Dark, i remember looking at that thread. That R33 has 34 rims on it though, and they do look a bit too wide. Someone surely has a R33 GTS-t with GTR rims with a pic?

I guess i should just try a set on and see how they fit first.

    • Dear folks My family members have 4 different cars : Triton 2015 and Corolla 2011 and Mazda3 2012 and Hyundai Elantra 2014 Looking to buy engine oil funnel spill free What I found are are below  https://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B0BBTTJNKX?ref=ppx_pt2_mob_b_prod_image&th=1 https://www.ebay.com.au/itm/145553221359?srsltid=AfmBOoqYBU6Ptw0LU_bAp_k67U3qkF97HHvePkA7iHZw8vUmiwoIRaRr https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B09X23TCS5?th=1 Is there a funnel with attachment that fits most cars ? Don't mind to spend for a decent quality  Thx  
    • Stock ECU (or more accurately stock tune) absolutely refuses to go over 10psi and behaves like you have seen. The Nistune is the same if it is the stock tune. If the Nistune chip has been tuned, the resulting tune could be literally anything for any combination of parts. The Nistune just makes the stock ECU Tunable.
    • So stock ECU does not like anything above 10 psi?  That Nistune one is just for "try" if it will be any different, I know it need to be tune for that. I know but YOU may know about these problem but i/we dont. They few little Skylines here let alone people who know anything about tham so that is why iam asking here  
    • So now we have a radiator with no attachments whatsoever. It lifts up with a particularly tight spot between the drivers side air box mount and the lower radiator outlet, but if you've got this far you will sort that too. This is the lower mounts with the rad out so you can see where the rubber bushes go, it is a straight shot upwards Done! Assembly is the reverse of disassembly, with blood less likely to be shed.
    • Right, onto the second last trick. The Air Con condenser is mounted to the front of the radiator and stays in the car when the radiator is removed. There are 2x 10mm headed self tappers holding the top of the condenser to the radiator, remove those The bottom of the condenser is attached to the radiator with clips. You need to lift the condenser out of those clips and clear (up, then forward). f**ked if  could work out how to do that last bit with the front bumper on. I hope you can, and you share the trick.  Bumper removal probably deserves its own thread one day once I've recovered the will to live, but basically you need to remove the wheels, front inner guard liners (clips and 10mm headed bolts), the self tapper between the guard and the bumper at the rearmost point of the bumper (same as an R32 that bit), any remaining clips at the top/front of the grill, an absolute bastard design with a plate that holds the top of the bumper above the headlight each side (only 1 bolt which is tricky to get to, but the plate catches 2 places on the bumper and must be removed....carefully!) and push clips between the bumper and guard under the headlight. If you've done all that you will be faced with wiring for the fog lights on both sides and in ADM Q50 RS at least, 4 nasty tight plugs on the driver's side for the ADAS stuff. So, the clips at the bottom look like this on drivers side (looking from the front) And on the passenger side (also from the front), you can see this one is already out Clearance on both of these are super tight; the condenser needs to move up but the upper rad support mount prevents that, and the radiator can't move down far because it is (rubber) mounted. Once you achieve the impossible and drop the condenser off those mounts so it does not stop the rad moving, you are good to go
