Sorry make that 18" x 10" + 20 at the rears

Hi guys, I am just wondering if anyone knows if +25 offset (R18, 8.5" fronts 9.5" rears) will fit under the guards sith a stock suspension set up?

cheers

Well if chad is running 18x9.5 with +20 to fill the guards, i would guess that the 10inch wide is going to poke out a little. And obviously if you wanted more low you'd need to either add some camber + roll/lip the guards (probably need that either way)

Hey guys.

Any of yous running something like::

Rims: 18 x 8, +38

Tyres: 235/40

all around on the R34 gtt?

my main concern is whether it'll rub on any of the suspension parts, given its high offset.

any help would be heaps appreciated :)

I just got off the phone with OTR motor sports and they said:

For the 18x9 +25 is too aggressive for stock set up R34 GTT without lowered and camber.

The prefer size in 18" we recommended is 18x8.5 +35~40 for the front and

18x9 +35~40 for the rear.

Does anyone strongly disagree with this??

Yes

Like i said, im on 18x9 +20, lowered on Tein Super street coilovers, with the dampers set to about half way through the 30 odd clicks,

only modification i did was to the rear guards, and that was simply rolling the lip on the under side of the guard a little, a heat gun and hammer took care of that, alternatively you could just buy a guard roller for $150ish or pay someone to do it for you.

    • My idle is set at 950rpm though - Moving the timing around 20 degrees is not really what I'd call a calm idle. That said... neither is chop, by definition. The LS ECU likes to adjust timing to hold idle as opposed to air. It'd work, but generally speaking there'd be a discrepancy in the base idle and the IACV would want to move the timing around anyway to maintain said idle. I think I'm just going to keep the timing steady anyway. Preserve my engine mounts.  My aircon is now officially regassed. As the guy was reversing I noticed my reverse lights do not operate, along with my reverse cam. This is a bit distressing, because 100% of guides talk about which wire to connect to backup cams as "the goes with the [other color] wire". Often when doing conversions. Unfortunately the R34 colour wires aren't documented Unfortunately I had a T56 Magnum gearbox with it's reverse switch, which also isn't documented. Unfortunately there's definitely not documentation for people with both of these in the one car. Unfortunately I forgot. After many hours of this, I have a reverse cam and reverse lights again. The wire going through the trans tunnel to the reverse switch had broken. Upon inspection, it looks like this one wire had about 7 spade terminals and extensions in it.. for reasons I cannot possibly comprehend. I also spent the 750 hours required to clean up the wiring behind my head unit which now looks like this: This is a monumental improvement relative to what used to be there WRT triple gauges, head unit, traction control, wideband controller, and whatever the f**k OEM stuff still exists there in various states of connectivity/needed. Next step is to check in at the Exhaust shop to see/confirm how much clearance I have, to decide what mid mufflers or 'resonators' (which are just straight through, narrower mufflers) I can add and hopefully cut out a lot of exhaust leaks, pinhole, v-band or otherwise. But first step will be to 'take a look' before the next step.
    • Fark the AFM card and Nistune, Haltech Nexus S3, DBW, cruise control, flex fuel, dis dat.  
    • It's most likely the bolt/bush where the cover bolts back wore and allowed cover to move forward.
    • Still haven't put the injectors and R35 AFM in so we can tune the bloody thing for the HG highflow it got mid last year! I think I can forecast the upgrade path to a bigger twin scroll, external gate, Haltech, flex setup, Samsonas, dis dat, etc will be .... a while away!
    • Should have taken that opportunity to slot in a twin scroll turbo setup. Maybe next time.
