This is my Gf stagea as it sits at the moment

There weds kranze cerberus ii in 19s

Width I'm unsure as the same as ofset ,

Tires are 19/235 35 on the front

And 19/265 35 on rear , tires are also look fairly stretched,

Looking the goods there!

I'd be willing to bet those staggered tyre sizes are the root of you driveline shudder.

They're a no go on these cars...

Size is up to you, but they have to be the same sizes front and rear.

Even theoretically perfectly matched rolling dia staggered sets seem to cause issues with the ATESSA system.

If you can; fit a set of matching dia wheels/tyres, and see what happens.

I always found this a little strange, by this reasoning adjusting the camber on a car, even if its not by choice (lowering) would change the amount of tyre contacting the road and thus change the width and more than likely the rolling diameter ever so slightly...

I have also seen plenty of GTR's running staggered widths in the past, is there something about our cars that makes this an impossibility?

I have to say I agree. GTR's seem to get away with it fine, I've even seen Evos with 9.5" wide rims front, and 9" rear, albeit with the same size tyres (apparently gives better grip through corners), but when I had slightly different tyres on my C34 Stagea, it "bucked" from the get go. I won't be trying it on my M35..

Hey Wagon boy, looking nice! Did you get the wing fitted after or was it already there?

He already had it; but he's just minding for me until Sunday...:ph34r:

Bloody Nismo; why can't they just make something that I DON'T want?:spank:

Most wings are "not suitable for ARX" is this correct?

No.

All Nismo add-ons state "not suitable for ARX" for some reason, even though you can fit the speedo, suspension, exhaust, wing etc just the same as with an RS or RX.

Where there is a bit of a problem is with front and rear bumpers and side skirts due to the ARX and Axis flares.

    • Well, hydraulic lifters will get noisy if they are dirty/fouled in some way, and exactly how that manifests will depend on exactly what schmutz is where. There is a procedure on here somewhere for dismantling and soaking/cleaning them. Replacing them with new is about 50% of the work and about 5% of the money!
    • Thanks for the reply @GTSBoy this is is a hydraulic lifter engine. Yea right i did not realise the lifters were supposed to be compressible while installed. I could push them down but i had to lean almost my while body weight on them.  I have never heard of a lifter/ lifters ticking only at hot idle and getting worse the hotter it gets. I have owned a few jdm cars with noisy lifters. This noise is slightly more subtle, it is more of a sharp gentle metalic tic than the solid and more loud tapping I've heard on lifters. I have used a metal rod, alloy tube, hose and stethoscope and could not find the source of the tick. But it appears to be loudest on the actual engine block behind the exhaust cam gear and next to the oil filter. I had mate (40 year old mechanic) go over it with me and he couldn't find it either..  Could it be a cam seal issue of some sort?  Cheers  
    • This seems problematic and unlikely at the same time. Vanilla RB2Xs have hydraulic lifters. They do have "zero" clearance, but only when running with oil pressure inside them. When not running, you should be able to compress them and obtain heaps of clearance. RB26s and Neos have solid lifters. They should have ~0.3mm and ~0.5mm on the inlet and exhaust respectively. If they have zero clearance then bad things are happening. With nothing else being wrong, it would mean that the valves would be held slightly (ever so slightly) open when they are supposed to be closed and it should have all sorts of problems when running, caused by leakage in/out through the valves. Or, zero clearance can indicate severe valve seat recession. None of it is good. Have you used a piece of hose as a stethoscope to try to localise the noise?  
    • Sorry for reviving an old post, but I'm having the same hot idle tick issue. Did anyone ever find out what it was?  I have checked/ replaced Injectors Coils checked Lifter clerance (is at zero) Checked Cam lobes Replaced exhaust gasket and studs Would appreciate any advice this is driving me nuts  
    • There's a huge reason manufacturers are tuning in dead flat torque curves... Make them reliable (and more drive able)
