Hey guys

I've finally gathered up enough funds to buy wheels for my r33 GTS (4 stud).

Ive narrowed it down to a few wheel. with semi similliar specs. The brand of wheels are rota and im going for the "grid" rim. The first wheel is 17x9.5, 30mm offset and the second wheel is 17x9, 12mm offset. Which wheel will fit the best without any modification to the guards? I'm sitting on stock suspension atm, but plan to eventually upgrade to lower springs (not by to much).

Cheers.

i would say for an r33 gts-t 17X9 +30 all round or +30 front and +20 rear if that size can be bought but thats my opinion alot of it is what you want, i have no clearance issues with 17X9 +30.

heres some pics before i lowered the car

they are +30 all round with 235 tyres

+30 on a 9.5 inch wheel will stick out a half inch further and +12 on a 9 inch wheel will be 18mm further out than the wheels in the pics

      Stock rb25det neo questions

      By Murray_Calavera · Posted

      Yes.  The only scenario I can imagine when the answer isn't yes, is if you drive like there is highway patrol behind you at all times.  If your car currently runs, enjoy it and keep saving. Better costs more, keep saving until you can budget the better ECU. It's worth it.  Nope. Plenty of us making >300kw on unopened motors. Mine is unopened and makes about 350kw if I turn everything up, its fine (lots of caveats here, how the car will be used/abused, how long you expect the engine to last between rebuilds, how has the engine been maintained prior to coming into your ownership, etc etc).

      Sorry just wanting to clarify, at this power goal, which should I be going? Also, More info regarding suspension, the rear upper camber arms were used to get the camber back to i believe around -0.5 ~ -1 degree (@ Road and Race in Rydalmere), I forgot the exact figure, but ALOT less camber than what it came originally which was like -2.5degrees. Are the traction arms still recommended? The bilsteins from SydneyKid, they've got 400lb/in fronts & 275/in in the rear, revalved to his specs. Intercooler, I'm just having a look at some on Rakuten.jp and some other japanese sites. Might get something from back there, GReddy, Blitz or HPI, all crossflow. Looking at roughly $450-$500 AUD + shipping... Theres not many choices except that chinese branded Justjap unless you go for blitz return flow. Yeah, only downside with Haltech is the price ahhaha, so expensive, and with all the sensors if I go that route... $$$$$ yeesh. Are headstuds/gaskets needed for <300akw?

      You can try shoving a borescope down there to see what's up.
