For reference we have 265 tyres (on R34 GTR rims) on our Project Car (R33 GTSt) and the lips only had to be slightly rolled. The offset has been so far and that includes a trip from Melb to Syd without any scrubbing or bottoming out on a track/street setting with the GReddy coilovers.

Maybe if they were moulded to the body so it looked smooth, instead of looking cheap with rivets and glue.

Maybe!

I dont really think they suit the skylines natural shape,... a bit like that purple skylines overkill wing... just to much

daym that looks pretty solid. they need to either mould the flares so it looks smooth or just give that rough look to the whole car. did any1 find out where to get these? mite try it out on my 33

Not that it matters either way but a Torana slr 5000 will take 17 x 10 with room to spare.

I'd like to see some work meister s1's on an a9x, would look good I think.

As you said function over form with the fllares and it's not as if they're hideous or even close.

+1 for the molding but o so hot, you have me thinkin know dam you dam you to hell I want.

Look f#*king tough no matter what anyone says HOT HOT HOT, you must post up some pic once you finish :P

why is electrical tape over headlight and brke lights so HOT!?

youve obviously never been on a track.

track workers would rather pick up one tape encrusted piece of plastic when you f**k up your car, than sweep a big scattered mess off the track.

nah, he was being a smart ass about track cars always having tape as if it was a fashion statement. if not, i apologize, this is a pretty multi-cultural forum, and sometimes i dont pick up on aussie-ness too well.

Yes. I have been to the track

Yes. I realise its to keep the glass in large chunks. And to lessen the risk of missing a peice and somone else ending up in a puncture and another accident (for eg.)

Yes. I have done this too on downhill evets held at Mt Panorama where there it is quite narrow and there is no run off and its straight into the wall

Yes. I still think it looks freaking hot!

No. I dont care about vehicular fasion. Function over form FTMFW!

    • Hi all, Restoring r33 series 1 rb25det. All the heater hoses were on their way out, have replaced them and put it all back together. After testing I noticed a small leak from behind the head on the actual metal water line to the turbo when cars warm. I tried running a longer hose over it but it kept leaking...   I am about to take the (stock) manifold off again😔 to change the water line does any one have any lines they recommend? I was looking at Aeroflow Turbo Oil & Water Line Set but not sure what everyone else recommends. Car is completely stock but want to upgrade turbo eventually. it looks like ill have to disconnect a lot just to replace these lines so if there's anything else recommended to do please let me know. Thank you in advance!
    • From memory, on the R33 GTSt at least, while everyone says "It's not adjustable", I found when I changed clutches in mine, it just needed a small adjustment on the rod length. But be very wary here, as you could end up trying to push the pushrod in the master too far, or blowing out the slave.   Most likely though, if the master/slave isn't bypassing internally or leaking out, then the throw out is the wrong height compared to the fingers on the clutch, so when it moves to disengage the clutch, it isn't 100% disengaged. You can check part of this out too by jacking the car up, having the engine running, put your foot on the clutch and try to engage 1st gear. If it goes in pretty easy (Compared to the ground) and/or the wheels start turning a fair bit and it takes a bit too much brake pedal to bring them back to a stop, this is likely the issue.  I'm not sure if you can adjust the height of the forks etc in these though, it's been that long since I've touched any RB gearbox.
    • That's all good, I thought I was missing some interesting feature! Maybe @PranK can double check if that is something that is meant to be operating or not.
    • I hope that is not something that bad. From what i remember he said that only first gear is "hard" to get in and that he has couple of ideas what to try next but idk 😕  hope it is not gearbox out. I will let you know.
    • If it's not the hydraulics, it is probably gearbox back out. Usually as per @Duncan's post, or otherwise associated with not getting the throwout fork positioned correctly. All the way up to catastrophically bolting shit back together without it being aligned properly and wrecking the clutch/input shaft/flywheel/something else.
