We did the other rear guard yesterday. It went even better than the first. I now have 265/35/18 tyres fitting all round! Hopefully the AO50's that I'll be running later in the year aren't wider than the RE55's...

Awesome stuff. Love the R32's. Great to see you enjoying it on the track and loving it.

Any weight reduction plans?

Not really except the sound deadening has already been removed.

How much u pick up the A050 tyres for?

Haven't bought any yet. I'm expecting around the $550/tyre mark

I like your style of guard mods, overfenders = FAIL.

I don't mind the overfenders but this worked out and was cheaper too.

I remember reading somewhere the 050 were a bit smaller than RE55's mate in 265...

Hope recollection is correct.

Love the car, love the build.

Following it all on FB for a while now, must find time off work for SL 2011 :D

Top stuff mate. Should get you back into the top 10 on the EC track times!!!!!

What is the goal at EC?

Yeah should get me in top 10 again haha.

I would like to go as fast as a 1min 42 but I don't think it will be this year. Maybe 1:44. Realistically it's a whole lot more car than I'm used to and it will take a while for my driving to catch up.

With 330rwk, bigger brakes, lighter car and the 265 A050's, you will go a lot quicker than 44's! Sure, it may take a track day or two but definitely some good times to be had. Should be fun with 330rwk!!!!!

Will be more like 280-300 as motor is internally standard. E85 could be a possibility in the future for over 300. Not sure yet. Whatever is safe really. Don't want a grenade engine.

*face palm for buying this motor*

That thing will go strong for a lot longer. Compression was good when we pulled it out and had a great tune with very low knock levels.

You election not to go for the 295 Advan Russ?

All that work is a mild waste for a tiny little 265..... :P

295's wouldn't work on the front unless I go for GTR uprights. I'm already running a 10mm spacer for inner clearance. 30mm doesn't seem like much but when you consider that we've already stretched it ~50mm, 30mm is lots more!

When you make 295's fit on yours I'll copy you :P

    • What can't be done with a little bit of decking board or similar timber bolted to a hub flange via 2 wheel nuts is not worth talking about.
    • I noticed something. On the tps sensor and the sensor behind the adjustment screw is adjusted towards the far left. Are these screws supposed to be centered? (this sensor was in the same position before the tune as well)  Also attached a photo of where my car usually idles at when warm (sometimes a tiny bit above that). I think I might have screwed up the calculation and it might have better than I thought lol at 750rpm still not 650rpm though.      
    • So for both general interest of engine health, and to rule out any coolant/oil issues, I organised an oil analysis done on the 125,000klm oil Results below, all good, just a bit of fuel dilution which I'm not too worried about
    • This is actually a really good way of measuring what wheels fit. If only there was a similar measurement between hub face and suspension :p That said, it's probably pretty simple to actually measure it all with the wheel off the car for the rear. The front is a bit more complex but.. 
    • Being the top Google search result for R34 wheel-related inquiries, lemme throw down my experience. I calculated that 100mm from hub face to wheel face is about the perfect fitment for my ENR34 sedan.  I've been running 18x8.5s, ET35, with a 1" spacer. So, 8.5in to mm = 216mm. 216/2 = 108mm. 108-35 = 73mm. 73+ 25 (1" to mm) = 98mm.  If you wanna get close to this on dif widths, here are the offsets you'll want: 9" - ET around 15mm 9.5" - ET around 20mm 10" - you're crazy, but ET around 30mm All these should fit perfectly on a non-widebody, non-GTR Skyline. Note that it's probably the absolute max, and you're probably better off running a couple degrees of camber in this config, but it looks great, super flush.
