R34 GTR rims are 18x8 +30 offset from memory. They should sit nicely in a GTT. I've seen a few GTTs running around with GTR wheels. If you are looking at fitting 18s on the GTT, anything at the front with offsets +40, +35 should fit assuming they are 18x8s. You will also need to check on front brake caliper clearance. I have tried two sets of +

35 offset on my fronts before one did not clear because it did not have high disk clearance. Jap wheels can be very tricky in this respect. Best advice is try before you buy...which can be hard when you are importing or buying second hand. I've learnt this the hard way :)

34 GTR wheels are 18X9 not 18X8. you may have some trouble with the fronts, but i'm not entirely sure. best way to find out is to see if you can try a pair on. With some low profile 235s on the front they will probably be ok.

This is such a great forum and many experts opinion. Question is how is the alignment setting and whether the handling is effected compare with the stock standard rims or other after market rims? The design looks great and had offers for a set atm. One last question, if I change the GTT fenders to the GTR ones while still retaining the stock GTT bumpers & bonnet, will there be gaps during fittings? The GTR fender do balance the car up with the GTR rims and will not hit the inside while turning. The GTR bumpers are pretty low for everyday driving.

Thanks in advance for the pros....Cheers!

Sorry my bad...18x9 :P

i have seen a 33 gtst with them in japan ( with stock 245x45x18 tyres) and i have a picture but not 100% sure if they will hit , probably hit the front inner guards . If you want to see the pic p.m. me your email and i will send it to you .

Just to confirm , they are 18x9 and +30 offset .

    • By popular demand.. it was a coil. Got my hands on 1 new OEM coil, replaced with the one that made the less noise difference when I unplugged it while the car was running and started the car up. No stutter and the engine light was gone. I guess I’ll buy the other 5 they have lol
    • No, code 21 is very straightforward. It can only be the things described in that diagnostic flow. In fact it has no way of knowing that the spark plug resistance is out of spec.
    • Hi, SteveL Thank you very much for your reply, you seem to be the only person on the net who has come up with a definitive answer for which I am grateful. The "Leak" was more by way of wet bubbles when the pedal was depressed hard by a buddy while trying to gey a decent pedal when bleeding the system having fitted the rebuilt BM50 back in the car, which now makes perfect sense. A bit of a shame having just rebuilt my BM50, I did not touch the proportioning valve side of things, the BM50 was leaking from the primary piston seal and fluid was running down the the Brake booster hence the need to rebuild, I had never noticed any fluid leaking from that hole previously it only started when I refitted it to the car. The brake lines in the photo are "Kunifer" which is a Copper/Nickel alloy brake pipe, but are only the ones I use to bench bleed Master cylinders, they are perfectly legal to use on vehicles here in the UK, however the lines on the car are PVF coated steel. Thanks again for clearing this up for me, a purchase of a new BMC appears to be on the cards, I have been looking at various options in case my BM50 was not repairable and have looked at the HFM BM57 which I understand is manufactured in Australia.  
    • Well the install is officially done. Filled with fluid and bled it today, but didn't get a chance to take it on a test drive. I'll throw some final pics of the lines and whatnot but you can definitely install a DMAX rack in an R33 with pretty minor mods. I think the only other thing I had to do that isn't documented here is grind a bit of the larger banjo fitting to get it to clear since the banjos are grouped much tighter on the DMAX rack. Also the dust boots from a R33 do not fit either fyi, so if you end up doing this install for whatever reason you'll need to grab those too. One caveat with buying the S15 dust boots however is that the clamps are too small to fit on the R33 inner tie rod since they're much thicker so keep the old clamps around. The boots also twist a bit when adjusting toe but it's not a big deal. No issues or leaks so far, steering feels good and it looks like there's a bit more lock now than I had before. Getting an alignment on Saturday so I'll see how it feels then but seems like it'll be good to go
