I am trying to pick out a new set for my track car.

i Currently have a set of AVS model 5 i think rims. 17 x 9 + 19 all around. there is no way in hell they will fit under stock guards but there is a fair few sets for sale that would.

Personally i dont like them that much but they came along at the right time for the right price.

I personally love the old school look. work meisters or equips for the plain dish look but if your gonna go dish make sure you have plenty or non at all.

yeh true about dish...same with xd9, emotions, te37's, some of the weds and anything that have that tapered/curved look when theres good offest.

avs 6's and buddy club p1's are some i like that don't need good offset.

Few from my old R32 that I thought looked best

Abu.....all i can say is WOW. You've probly got one of the sexiest looking R32's i've ever seen!! :)

It looks tough with anyone of those rims but i like the XD9's the most, then probly the 33GTR's.

Jake, just pick one of the rims Abu has. Same offset, width etc....you cant go wrong and it will look tuff as :)

just recently bought a cheap set of wheels..8" +38 front and 9" +38 rears...really happy with the wheels as i got them pretty cheap and picked up some bridgestone potenzas for the front and advan neova ad07's for the rear for cheap as.

they are gmax's but i have no idea what model they are because the aren't on the site so most likely old skool.

i've only put the rears on as i'm waiting to fit and balance the tyres and i miust say...it looks tuff as. i was scared +38 9" in the rear wasn't enough but its enough to fill up the guards and not look over done.

so anyone with a r32 gtst that isn't willing to roll/lip/modify guards and want to use as much space as possible 17x8 +38 and 17x9 +38 is pretty good. you could probably go to +35-+32 but i think any lower and you'll be rubbing on something. My car isn't slammed on its ass but it is lowered with apexi springs.

i'll post up some pics once i have tyres fitted.

      Shifting questions

      By DRoc81 · Posted

      This was a huge help.  We followed the steps,  although shifting into 2nd was actually into 3rd for us,  and 1st was into 2nd ( steps 9 and 11) .  The long flash was the 4th flash.  So shift solenoid A is possibly the culprit.  Is this inside the transmission itself? Or is it accessible by just front the pan? Or is it bolted to the outside of the transmission?  Thanos for your help everyone

      Can you enlighten me on your best practice regarding these hoses? I don't wanna make the same mistake if you already got a better solution.

      I have some silicon hoses already, for example engine to watercooler. But yeah, I get the sentiment. The lower intercooler silicon hose is drippy too, despite not being very old. Does anyone except Nismo make these same lines out of rubber? Long term I think they'd be the better replacement, especially since the car won't live as hard a life anymore as in the past nor be driven as often.

      I know most issues are just age related. But for example the turbo oil drains, there is dash adapters for these and you can just make a braided teflon line for them and (probably) never have them leak again. Also not terribly expensive. Can you even get the factory hardlines from new? Or are they repairable if they break?

      I know it'd be much much easier with the tool. I hope I can find one that won't take 3 weeks to get to me an isn't a "Asian models kit" that has tons of (to me) useless adapters for a load of cash.   It's a summer project/fun car. I do wanna enjoy it, without endless downtime over and over. So yeah I would even go and buy an engine crane + stand to save myself the trouble of hard to reach or unreachable places going bad later on. Would also be a good opportunity to put on a Fluidamper, renew the mains seals and stuff like that. I have some money on the side that I can use for that, what I wouldn't want to or be able to do is let everything be done by a shop or have my engine completely rebuild right now. I intend to do most of the "doable" jobs myself. Pulling an engine can't be that hard, can it?
