Wanting to buy some front runners in 15" by 4" for my skyline and need to know what backspace sit best on a skyline before i hand over the cash...

What have others used or recomend???

choices are 1 and 3/4" , 2 and 5/16" or 3 and 3/8"...

I was thinking 1 and 3/4" but dunno... 2 and 5/16" is pretty much zero offset...

what brakes you running, if you are running facotry brakes or big brakes 15 inch wont fit over them.

i was running r33 brake on my cressida, i bought 17 inch front runners form titan motorsports, 17x4 with 2.25 inch back space which should be perfect for skyline too. you can run a 26 inch tall tyre which looks nicer then 15 inch wiht 26 inch tall tyre

    • Do you plan on using 98 or e85?
    • This should be pretty easy. 200rwkW is just about the max power out of an RB25 stock turbo. So, 12ish psi on a 2.5L. That boost limited mainly by the prospect of seeing the turbine in the cat after the smoke show. A steel wheeled equivalent would likely happily do ~220rwkW at something like 17 psi, where it would probably be bumping into the usual limits of such a sized turbo. These things have like a .48 rear. You will not need the 0.86 rear. The 0.64 will be fine. In fact, if you were looking at various mid-200rwkW options for RBs, most of them would be in a 0.64 rear. So, I think you will definitely want to be no bigger than that for a same sized but probably even more efficient (at making power) modern engine.
    • Change the subframe bushes, transforms the car.
    • For something a little more serious, Davinci Resolve is about the best there is for free video editors. No expiration dates or watermarks, completely free.
    • Well, it's taken me until the last week of 2024 to actually do something on the Skyline but I consider it a good head start to 2025's efforts! I managed to justify (to myself anyway...) my purchase of the lift table. It made taking the rear subframe out a lot easier than it would have been without anyway! Everything is out and stripped down ready for a clean then powdercoating.  She's pretty grubby under there but pretty good condition for a 38 year old Japanese tin bucket. 12 years of zero street time have obviously helped that... I need to decide which of the factory suspension arms I will keep and replace so I only get what I'm keeping powdercoated.  Baby steps but it's a start!
