Hey just a quick question.....

Im looking at getting some new wheels for my car and in the case of GTR's and GTS4's (GTS4 in my case), it doesn't matter wot the width of the wheel is as long as the rolling diameter matches.

Wheels size im looking at is 18x8.5 & 9.5

Now as long as tyre size also matches eg 235's or what ever then i should be fine?

Thanks in advance for the responses.

I would have thought you just buy 4 of the same rim - how hard is that?

Well finding a set of rims that i like it one thing, then finding them all in the same size and offset is another thing, so to simply answer your question its hard, im not about to settle for just any rims either.

I'd love a set of CE28N's or VS-XX's but finding either of these either in my budget or in the size and offset i need is painful, i sometimes feel i'd be better off making a set of rims out of rocking horse shit at this rate.

If anyone knows of any in 18's for a decent price, size and offset for a GTS4 lemme know!

    • Speaking of diverting threads, my second ever NISMO purchase…. I think they look pretty classy and just wanted to share 😅   PS: 1st was the oil drain plug 😂  
    • R12 has not been not available for....decades now. Propane is not a great replacement. (I mean, it's a great replacement, but it is a bit too flammable). R134a being the only way to go forward with an R12 system. The design pressures etc, are close enough to R12's to work. The ability to move heat around is close enough to R12's to work.
    • Out of curiosity, what's the reason for converting? I think @R3N3 might have the Frenchy's kit in the R33? I somehow think of you as the ambassador for realistic and clean street-driven setups nowadays  
    • careful when running the car after a boil over. Ive heard you can lose enough coolant that it won't show the right temps because of too much air in the system (or something like that). Make sure the levels are good before trying again.  Maybe a mobile mechanic can come have a look with their scan tool ?
    • OK, just for some extra clarity - there is more than one option at Frenchy's. 1. You can buy the whole kit - with or without the actual compressor. The whole kit includes mounts, hoses, condensor, etc. That's either ~$2200 or ~$2800. No surgery required with this option. 2. You can buy just the bracket (~$600), or the bracket with the compressor (~$1200). Either of this or the above option "without the compressor" is if you already have an Echo comp or you are able to source one locally. Whatever the case, in this option, you will need surgery done on your hoses to adapt to the new compressor. When I said "the Frenchy's kit", I meant the whole kit in option 1. It is obviously somewhat more $$ than a $1500 OEM compressor. But if I had to spend $1500 on an OEM compressor, I would certainly consider spending double that to renew and significantly update everything forward of the firewall. Another option is to rebuild your original compressor. My R34 comp is currently dead and I will be most likely doing that to it if the spare one in the shed is also leaky.
