Hi Guys,

Can anyone recommed and post pics if possible of the size of spacers to use to fill the guards more on an R34 GTR using the stock wheels.

Would like to avoid tyre rubbing though. Im not interested in discussions around legal issues.

thanks

Jason

Dude, if that is indeed 1 inch (25mm) spacers all round - it looks perfect to me

thanks very much for replying

what brand wheel spacers come recommended (I am also looking at 1 inch spacers for the rear)? I was told to get hub centric ones.

Try just jap?

So a 20-25mm spacer would be perfect then.

If I did this I would probably see whether I could get spacers with the correct diameter center welded onto the wheels, then machined and painted.....

Those are Rays hubcentric 20mm spacers. Used to have a set before changing from stock wheels to te37's.

      I am currently going this route. I am curious how much horse power you put behind the cut bell housing? Collins was telling me I am going to crack it and bluh bluh bluh. Because I didn’t buy the custom fly wheel from him. I am looking for somewhere around like 500 hp

      Thanks @PranK for the updated member status, much appreciated! 👍🏼 Now, about those pics… Unfortunately I could only find ones that I took in the dark. I was soon to discover that underneath it wasn’t in the best shape, but it was mine and that’s all I cared about at the time 😆

      A little PU bush story

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      Oh, and only having done this task yesterday, I've now driven the car ~60km since, and while it is hard to avoid placebo effect and confirmation bias, I reckon that some annoyances I had with the way the car has been behaving have improved. Which....kinda makes sense, I guess. If the bushes were really stiff and resisting rotation, they would have been contributing to the effective wheel rate. And if it was more so on one side (which it was, because one side was worse than the other) then.... you might imagine that the additional rate would be asymmetric, and potentially even different between compression and rebound. And so... the car has been twitchy at higher speeds - like freeway on ramps. It really shouldn't be. The wheel alignment is good and there are no (other) known problems elsewhere in the suspension. But at 90-100 on a long sweeping ramp, tiny steering wheel motions would make it feel like it wanted to rear steer. Quite nervous. At lower speeds it would heave about in a manner that it didn't use to. Didn't want to put power down, etc etc. Now...seems to behave better. Am going to have to concentrate on the various corners where it has exhibited weirdness, on the rare occasions when I can get a decent run at them without Methanial getting in the way in his D-Max/Ranger/LDV Van/etc.
