my friend has a gts-t r33. he is getting a gtr rear hubs and diff fitted to it. will his wheels that fit on fine under gts-t guards still fit?? or will they stick out/rub?

in other words, do the gtr hubs stick out further than gts-t in a gts-t cradle (if that makes sense, lol)

if your unsure you could look at the factory specs, should be able to find them on the net somewhere. and compare the tire track specs of the gtst and the gtr. make sure you take into account the rim offset aswell.

"he is getting a gtr rear hubs and diff fitted to it", so he isn't changing the cradle?

If so, there is a long list of issues;

Driveshafts won't bolt up

Tailshaft won't bolt up

Shocks won't bolt up

Wheel bearings are different

Rear brake lines and hoses are different

If he is changing the cradle then he will have clearance problems as the GTR rear cradle is wider. So the rear swaybar won't fit either.

Nissan didn't want people doing this, so they designed in lots of difficulties.

    • Hi All Does anyone know what size bolts are used to mount the bonnet hinge to the bonnet on an R32 GTR please? I'd usually just buy them OEM but they are nearly £20 each and I need all 4
    • interestingly enough, i found out the answer is yes. doing a flush did fix my recurring A/T light. it might have been because of the trans filter: but that doesn't really make sense to me. the fluid/filter was super dirty. would that increase the pressure in the lines and trigger an A/T light? does the car even have a way of detecting that? i have no idea. i've done 200+ miles after the flush and no A/T light. if my A/B solenoids went bad, i would think the light would've come on. shifts and drives way better now though...at 2k rpm instead of 2500...no hesitation and downshifts when i want it to. 
    • I vote go red. Only because I hate keeping gloss black clean. Was no worries helping out either! Glad you've survived the rain outs of QLD
    • I would again like too thank Matt for his help in me sourcing the detachable hard top for the little red car, without Matt's assistance in inspecting it and locking it down, I can guarantee it would have sold before I could get up to see it,  and as that was the only available NC hardtop in Australia, I consider myself extremely lucky on multiple levels To say I'm more that happy would be an understatement And, it is 100% water tight, I drove through torrential rain coming back south, and by torrential, they type of rain that doing 40kph in a 110kph zone was a real thing, and even then, the standing water on the Hwy was deep enough to throw waves I'm also more than happy that the huge "BEASTS" that Matt calls dogs didn't eat me for lunch, I'm sure the sniffs and licks were more to "taste test" me, over being to friendly Now to work out what colour to get it painted, panel match, or gloss black........first world problems are real
