I'm looking at a set of Volk GT-N wheels with the following attributes. Does anyone know if they will fit nicely on R34 GTT coupe without any modification to the guardes or anything else? Also should the +30 offset goes in front or rear? I was under the impression that less offset gives more dish which is not what I can see from below, is this right? I was quoted around 2k for the set is this a reasonable price?

18x8 +30 (56mm dish)

18x8 +36 (63mm dish)

Rubber: DNA 235/40/18

Thanks

They'd fit alright but wouldn't look "great" (The fitement that is, its a sexy wheel). They would sit inside the guards burt you'd have no clearence issues (I'm running wider wheels and lower offsets on my R34 opn coilovers with bog standard guards, un-rolled). 2k might be a bit much purely because the sizes and offsets aren't ideal for your car, but then again better then some Knob Jane Homo-spec wheels. If you like them get them. My valuation (private sale) $1.5k - $2k

Also, run the higher offset on the front as your rear guards are wider :)

I really like these wheels and it seems very hard to find them nowadays because it's discontinued. This is the only set that I come across that appeared to be the most suitable ones for GTT. But you guys are right the size is still not ideal... I double check if the back is not 9inch.

I've read from another post that someone suggested R34 GTT can fit:

Front: 18 x 8 +30 - +36

Rear: 18 x 9 +32 - +38

Is this correct? Obviously the narrower and/or higher offset will give more clearance but look less "great"?

edit, i just worked out where you are buying those wheels, and he has WAAAY better rims for your car!

True that! But I really like those patterns and colours and it falls into my price range. I think it will look greate if it has the right width and offsets.... :blink:

aah... what's on the site is all that's there atm...

Volk GT-N

18x9 +24

18x10 +30

245/40 275/40 ~60%

$2500 (ETA FEB)

these would need some rolling but probably not a flare, and would fit on a GTT veeeeeeeery nicely if you are willing to mod the guards just a lil... :D

Nice choice of rims! I wish I didnt sell my old set! absolutely love em... $2k is a good price too.

These were on my old gtst.. might give you a bit of idea of fitment.

18X8 front +36, will need a 10mm spacer to fit over an r33 front caliper might be the same for the R34?

18X9 rear +38,

      Thanks Santa (the neverending trials of the 400,000klm, 400kw, RB30, manual swapped Stagea)

      Thanks Duncan! Yeah it's street use for me only. Maybe occasional track day. Any difference in noise when running with the two pumps? I would expect the lift pump to be more quiet than the main pump so hopefully not? And yes, unfortunately quite a big price difference to the simple hanger setup. Though I'm usually willing to trade money for better reliability and future-proofing. Buy once, cry once and all that. I'd be very happy to never have to deal with fuel pump / wiring issues again

      The old manifold was quite under the GTR strut brace.  The new manifold is quite [unknown] the GTR strut brace. The GTR strut brace was needed to clear the bonnet vents. The Old strut brace will almost certainly clear the new manifold, but not the bonnet vents. The old strut brace will almost certainly clear the new manifold, and the new bonnet without vents. But I am hoping the GTR strut brace clears the new manifold :p

      Bonnet clearance?

      On the bright side, at least you knew that it happened and remedied before anything happened. A friend of mine just took his Fiat 124 to a shop for an oil change and they didn't tighten the oil filter housing properly. 4.5 quarts spewed out and even after refilling + tightening the cap the engine has a tick now.

      So, more pain. The FAST manifold is a little larger than the stocker. This is problematic because there really wasn't much clearance to begin with, so going from 'barely enough' well into 'no' is sad based on the external dimensions of the thing, even though where it bolts to the head is the same. Result is the fuel rails sit a good 25mm higher, and this is a bit of an issue with the wiring that runs behind the motor, and the fuel lines, and everything else. When pushing the manifold on, it required a huge amount of force to crush wiring looms to fit it, sensors like the MAP sensor are about 1mm from the firewall, and the FPR just has to bend ABS lines to be forced into place. After some brainstorming and some sad drinking, the loom for some reason ran from the grommet behind the ABS sensor, then to the driver side head, then back to the passenger side head. So all of this was pulled back and stripped, a few wires cut and rejoined, so that the 'branch' was now on the passenger side's head as below: Before you basically couldn't see anything behind the driver head. This is much improved! The MAP sensor is now pointing up (instead of at the firewall) Brackets have been made up for the rail. The rails are for a LS1, the manifold is designed around a LS2 as it's base. Which of course has slightly different bracketry and water pump clearance, hence the mods people need to do. Should be hopefully mounted tonight. I spent money on a new FPR that is slightly more compact than my Turbosmart FPR1200. The gauge has also been moved to the rail. There's also apparently an ORB to AN Union instead of the adapter, because the ~25mm of the current adapter is going to make the difference. Provided this all goes together and arrives today, it'll be the totally not stressful attempt to start it.
