Hey,

A freind of mine has some 19" Enkei RP03 with Nangkang SuperSport tyres on them going for an absolute stunning price. I have always thought that I wont bother changing the standard R34 turbo wheels unless I can across something very good.

However, after reading about what tyre sizes / widths / offsets etc in the other thread I think there was someone with similar widths but in 18" and not 19

I dont have the offsets which I know are probably going to be the biggest factor but im pretty sure they will be +30+. EDIT: Actually I think the offsets are +40.

So fronts we are currently running 245/35/19 and rears are running 265/35/19 and these came off a 350Z.

What do you think my chances of getting them to fit as is are and with the guards be the biggest problem?

Cheers,

Dave

Haha I bet you will :) They are fn hot wheels... I took a photo of one today on my phone...

They are currently sitting at the wheel shop where he got his new ones fitted, so im gonna drop my car in there tomorrow and get them to put them on and see how they go...

I haven't had my car lowered (rather engine mods first...), will it make my car sit much higher? And how do you think a 19" wheel will look on the skyrice...

Have attached for those who haven't seen them...

      This would be a new pump with new gears. I'm just unclear on whether it's a good idea to run more oil pump flow if you don't actually need said flow. Oil level is set a minute or so after shutting off a warm engine so wouldn't the high RPM oil level in the sump end up lower all things equal? Plan is OEM clearances, main concern in my mind is whether the OEM pump can keep up with the flow requirements of any additional oil coolers.

      Don't do what I did, use a 300000km old housing with billet gears. The old pump probably was clearanced with saw dust, Edward Lee's special engine treatment sauce and a good odo wind back. I had oil pressure issues, then replaces pump with new housing, new billet gears and 2x track day later binned a motor due to other oil related issues due to a previous engine builder. Long story short, buy a M2 or 3 or 4 N55/S55/S58 and enjoy life.

      Yeah. "New pump" does not have to mean "massive pump".

      Well, can you still get an OEM pump, and by the time you're buying a Nismo/N1 etc, just buy another aftermarket pump. It's better to have the pump able to flow more if its needed, than for your pressure to drop off. At any point in time, you're replacing the oil pump in a rebuild. Aftermarket pumps are likely going to be a better economical choice, and they don't have any negatives, even if they can flow more.   Also, when you're saying "replace the pump gears" are you meaning leave a 25+ year old housing in the engine with unknown wear, and just put new gears in? As that sounds silly to me, especially if you do have that minute amount of wear, that means your new pump gears now have a little bit more clearance beside them, which means, whelp, you may not get to build a lot of oil pressure or make a lot of flow.
