correct. IMO, go equal size all round. makes it easier to swap tyres, rims front/rear(which if you have a mech diff you might need to do as they won't like a space saver), resale of rims to GTR owners etc.

+22 is the most you would go with unmodified guards

the offset number doesn't mean much without the wheels size.

he was asking about 8.5" and 9.5" wide rims

which ones were you suggesting +22 offset for? as there will be a 13mm difference in how far out they sit

^^ That's about right Adz, conservative offsets and sit almost flush with the guards.... i prefer more aggressive offsets :)

+22 would be the lowest offset at 9" wide on stock guards

For reference, these are R34 GTR wheels on a GTT which are 18x9 +30 all round... +22 will extend another 8mm outwards of the guard

I had the following on my GTT -

Front - 18x8.5J +30 offset (235/40/R18)

Rear - 18x9.5J +38 offset (265/35/R18)

thanks adzmax. just asking because these are work wheels i cannot try b4 i buy so to speak. i want the dished look at the back and not so much at the front. also i only want to have to roll the gaurds a little. no camber/ streched tyres to fit.

im running XD9's in:

17x9.5+17 fronts with a 215/40

18x10+38 rear with 235/40

On a R32 Gtst with rolled guards. not flared..

-1.5 to -2deg camber on rears

-3 deg camber fronts (cos front is slammed)

will i need to camber if i dont go so low??? also what is involved in this and do you scrub at all?? full lock bumbs ect. cheers

Nah u shouldnt need neg camber if u dont go so low, u shouldnt scrub... but, if you have very wide wheels and low offset with 0camber settings, the wheels can possibly stick out too much and look odd, usually when u lower your car the camber will start falling negative naturally.

to adjust the camber you can get camber arms front and rear... but thats more for dialing out negative camber than increasing it (from a performance perspective)...

nah i dont scrub @ all, not even @ full lock sliding over bumps. rolled guards + stretched tires + negative camber on front avoid the situation

      My plan is to go the pink option. But still add the 4th fitting near the oil cap and just cap it off for now.  That way I can add 2 extra to the sump and have 4 dedicated breathers/drains if I ever remove the sump for any reason.

      Oh, yeah, look - here's the thing. You always replace the tensioner when you're going in there to replace a belt....under normal circumstances. You want to make sure it is good and safe, and that you don't create a reason to take the front of the bloody motor apart again. But in this case, OP is replacing a belt that has aged out on time, not usage. The belt is a million miles away from aging out on usage. The belt gets a time "limit" merely because it is made of rubber and can degrade naturally. The tensioner? Not so much. I reckon it could last forever on the current usage pattern. So I reckon if the thing is going to continue to get used at the same rate, replacing the tensioner is somewhat gratuitous. Would I replace it if I was doing it on my car right now? Hell yes. Because my car does 10-20 thousand kays a year. So it's all going to be the same thrashedness. Would I YOLO it on OP's car. More than likely.

      I dunno. I think any one of those from each side to sump is probably enough. Remember - this is about creating a path for gas flow up from the sump to the cam covers. That gas flow then has to leave via the lines to the catch can. There's probably little point in providing 100% more capacity from sump up to covers cf. what you have from there to the catch can. Put in the 3 convenient ones? Any which way that you see fit. That'd be my thoughts.
