Go the +20 all round.

9.5s are not too wide for the car.

What size tyres are you looking to run on it?

Sorry, if its a GTSt with std guards, even if the insides are rolled then its my experience that sized rim will not have a hope in hell of fitting on an R32 GTSt

At best you will get a 9" +28 or so on the front and a 9.5" + 36 or so on the rear. Even that will fill out the guiards and probably rub depending on ride height and tyres used.

A far better bet for a decent stance is 8.5" +30 fronts and 9" +30 rear. For the size tyre you want to run then they will fit that sized rubber better too.

I have very heavily pumped guards on my car and here is a pic of it with 350/340mm ride height and R34 GTR rims which a 9" + 30 all round They clear nicely with no rubbing. But you are talkign rims that are about 12mm wider and with a further 10mm offset. No way i can see them fitting with std guards!

One of my mates got a 32 gtst aswell hes got 17x9+17 all round with in gaurds taken out and gaurds rolled! So im thinking more along the lines of 18x8.5+17 on the front! And 18x9.5+20 on the rear! Would that work! With 225/40's on the front and 235/40's on the rear!

      I can get more photos of it here soon and I plan to make a thread detailing the process. I received the car this way and it sorely needs refinishing. That is probably the most appealing photo of it. Up close it is fading, cracked, and needs to be re-glued. Depending on their condition I'm on the fence between refinishing or making a new set.  Another angle hiding the pimples and razor pumps

      Can you mount the ATTESA pump in other locations?

      According to this thread the RS4V with build plate RC40 comes with the R200 diff @ 4.083 ratio as well (mine has said RC40 denotation). We may need to check if the axle stubs are the same pattern as well. The auto subframes have longer axles. However I think yours being a later Series 2 as well, we should have the same bolt pattern for the diff stubs. Unless your upgraded rear also has upgraded axles. Either way, I would not be opposed to pulling the covers to check so I can inspect that  fancy rear core  Also I don't have HICAS. I don't believe that should change things but I hope the people here with heaps more experience than me can correct me if I'm wrong   Let me know if you want to attempt to make this work and I can get some pictures of mine from under the car.

      It's not that straightforward. For example I have had this code because my ignitor/power transistor wires were unplugged. It knows something is wrong but has no idea what it means. If you want to actually diagnose this I recommend following the service manual flowchart for code 21. Ohm out the harness, coilpacks, inspect the ECU, etc. And again, it's entirely possible for there to be no problem at all but if you're running a different coilpack it'll trigger the code because it doesn't like what it sees.

      If it (the code) wasn't still current, it should have gone away by itself by now. No, nothing it 10/10. But it is quite likely. Everything else to do with the ignition could still be responsible (which is wires and connectors). The car is an old piece of shit now, so all the wires and connectors are also old pieces of shit.
