Hey guys!

I am from Vancouver Canada and i bought a R32 GTS-t coupe a few months back... I have asperations to get a R33 RB25DET and i want a good rim to go with it.

What is the largest rim that i can put on my car without haveing to roll/flair the fenders. I think that i am going to get the BN SPORTS front flaired fenders with the side vents but the rear 1/4's is were i think that i am going to have the most problems.

I am hoping to go with a 18"X8.5 in the back and 17X8.5 in the front.

What does anyone think about this? do you think that it will work?

Thanks

James

should be sweet bro how, have you lowred the car at all?

Currently i have Tein suspention... but it is not lowered... I have ordered some Coilovers from Cusco and i am not looking at going too low to the ground. The speed bumps are HUGE here. some up to 7" high. i amy lower about 1/2"-3/4". Cusco makes and amazing adjusting shock

I was concidering going with 2 different sizes to get some Dynamics to the car... it is already a rare car here and i think that it would give it that "wow" look.... i really like how my buddies 'vette and his camaro SS look with the different rime size. (his corvette is a 2005 with 21" on the rear and 19" on the front, Camaro SS is a 2000 with 20" on the rear and 19" on the front)

i fit 18x9 +30 rims on the back and it just clears the guards without any modifications.

on the front ive got 18x8 +30 but i had to pull the inner guards out and lip the guards

may have less troubles for you as you wont lower your car heaps

    • This isn't for lotsa powers, and time and effort isn't even a thing I'm concerned about The whole reason is "Just because fun", and "Just because fun" is what I do And whilst there are other kits, with better and more modern turbos (Rev9 use the same Kraken manifold I believe.....EDIT... nope, the Kraken is a cast jobbie, the REv9 uses welded up stainless, plus $8000 AUD before shipping, installation and tuning) Where else in Sydney can I do a drive in drive out with the after sales support that MX5 Mania give My Turbo 86 made around 200kwatw on a AVO turbo kit that Pulse fitted, and it was over 100kg heavier than the MX5, but it was a blast to drive around the streets, until I crashed it.....DOOH, so somewhere around 200 ish level and some whooshy noises and I'll be happy driving to work, the shops, or heading into the country with Jackie for Devonshire tea So, thanks Dose for your info, it sounds like a 0.64 will be fine for what I'm after👍 The only real racing I do nowadays is to the toilet

    • Hey @Butters, did you end up getting this clutch in ? I have just ordered to a uniclutch track to go in my getrag 6 speed that’s in my BNR 32     
    • I know you don't want to hear this comment, but I can't not say it.  I just can't see 200kw being worth the time and effort. Its like guys with NA cars, putting in headers/exhaust/tune for a massive 20% jump in power. Great, the slow car is still slow and you're down $10,000.  My vote is leave it NA or price in a gearbox upgrade and shoot for at least 300KW, preferably 350KW+.  Now you have a NC that will try to kill you from time to time and will be exciting to drive
