I was in a situation where I had to put standard wheels of my stock car onto my track beast, and they looked mega narrow under the body so I put the hub extenders (about 20mm thick and bolted to the hubs with a different set of studs for the rims) and the 3 piece track wheels, running 255 45 17's, on the stockie and they hung out almost 25mm while they sit juuuust inside on the track car. I was thinking that it was just some bodywork had been done but then I saw a comparo on the MCCR website that mentioned widebody GTS25t's, and only about 100 were made.

Does anyone have more info on this? Is it fact or fallacy?

Skyline Imports Does them.. I think

Or talk to J-Racing (They do a full wide body conversion of s15's for around 5K, Probably the same for a Skyline.

A genuine Widebody Kakimoto r33 GTS 25t (275's on the front / 335's on the rear!!) was sold this week here in A.C.T, It had only 11,000 KM, was in mint condition, and bog stock..

It fetched 65K!!!!!!!!! Id rather get a r34 GTR!!

Hey that kakimoto is J-spec's car!! I've seen it in the flesh and yeah it looks awesome! Craig is one lucky guy!! :D

Rumour has it, that he's in the process of a making it a full show car..........cant wait

But yeah, to gauge how wide those kakimoto wheels are, they're the same size as what they put on lambo's (i think.... )

    • Interesting, I haven't read about the issue with oil getting into the speedo in the cluster before. I'll have to take more notice with mine. The speedo on my R32's when I've run factory diff and tyre size have never been accurate as far as I can remember. The non Type-M GTS-t did come with 15" 5 stud wheels and smaller brakes, but that's less than 5% of them.
    • Good to hear the condenser you picked up off my brother worked all good. Do you think there could be an issue with your AC compressor itself or the clutch on it then? I don't know a lot about them so I can't really help but keen to hear what it ends up being. Keep the build thread going man, it's nice to look back on over time.
    • This is a story of my life things, I learned eventually (thanks to someone calling me out) that my enthusiasm for discussing and sharing ideas that it came across as arrogance and I'm like... WTF?!    One thing I'm pretty sure I justifiably pride myself on is knowing that everyone will have things they can teach you, and you're always going to find out that something you think you know turns out wrong - you just don't know what it is until you get there.   Just the bursting enthusiasm that comes with ADHD when you hit something that gives you dopamine dumps can come across like you think everyone else is wrong or don't matter. But yeah, I'm a software engineer by trade and also do tuning in weekends and 100% have long had a reputation for  quickly making connections when resolving problems or forming solutions that I've sometimes had to take people form a long walk from start to end to explain how I ended up where I did when it's seemed "too simple" when I've stated my initial case, and had the "WTF" type reaction when they've realised how much was actually considered haha.   My reward is that I get all the curly problems thrown at me.
    • Wives never seem to find things funny. Especially when they're trying to sleep, and you've found the new funniest thing ever. I've never seen someone be able to get try and be cranky with me, while they're holding back fits of laughter... 😛   Also, I tell mine it's payback anyway. She has BiPolar. So the household can get quite emotionally wild at times 😛
    • I'm not up to date on the latest, but for basic modifications like pod filter, lower springs etc you can get a modification permit at the time of inspection.  For more serious modifications you will need engineering.  Intercoolers used to fall into the mod permit rule but its been a long while since i looked it up.   Either way you will be able to get it registered, just a case of $300 vs $3k .
