So i have Heard 18 x 9.5 Are the perfect fitment if you do not want to scrape or roll your guards. Then ive heard 18x 10 & 10.5 fit with proper offset and you dont need to roll your guards can someone tell me once and for all what is the absolute limit without scraping and rolling guards?

It depends on ride height, I fitted 18x10+18 on mine lowered slightly without rolling any guards, then when I lowered it more with coil-overs it required one of the rear guards to be rolled. Guards sit about 1 mm above tire though

End of the day you will be able to run a 10 or a 10.5 without rolling but not with a very low ride height

I have 18x9.5 with an offset of +12 and had to lip the guards a little, plus I get some rubbing on the inner guard when turning. Also running 265/35 tyres, lees wide tyres would reduce the need to lip guards, as would offset of +15.

Here's some pics with some suspension bump applied, (and semis in 265/35)

I dont know how low my car exactly but its lower then factory... The front Oem lip sits about 10 cm from the ground, So no sure how low that is compare to factory but i want 18's do you think with that ride height i can fit 10inches?

R32 GTR, 19x10 +20, when lowered needed the guards rolled/cut a little due to running 275 tyres, a narrower tyre would have been fine.

      I used the radium thing, makes the whole parallel assembly a lot more compact compared to any other way of doing it

      Racetronix also sells those ethanol content sensor bypass blocks. Adapter, Flex-Fuel E85 Sensor High-Flow Bypass, In-line No Sensor (ADF-FLEX-NS): Adapters - Flex Fuel | Racetronix Ethanol content sensor are originally designed to be on the feed line. These bypass blocks are meant to be ran in the feed line and not return. The continental ethanol content sensors have a 3/8" ID and not 5/16". This is why they are ran on the return line directly in conjunction with a low threshold sampling value VS in the feed with one of these blocks.    Haha we think alike, I used both original feed/return for 8AN feed, and one of the Hicas lines as a 6AN return. I also capped off and left the other Hicas line as a spare.

      R32 gtst speedo out by 10kph

      By -Jimmy- · Posted

      Interesting, I haven't read about the issue with oil getting into the speedo in the cluster before. I'll have to take more notice with mine. The speedo on my R32's when I've run factory diff and tyre size have never been accurate as far as I can remember. The non Type-M GTS-t did come with 15" 5 stud wheels and smaller brakes, but that's less than 5% of them.

      Good to hear the condenser you picked up off my brother worked all good. Do you think there could be an issue with your AC compressor itself or the clutch on it then? I don't know a lot about them so I can't really help but keen to hear what it ends up being. Keep the build thread going man, it's nice to look back on over time.

      This is a story of my life things, I learned eventually (thanks to someone calling me out) that my enthusiasm for discussing and sharing ideas that it came across as arrogance and I'm like... WTF?!    One thing I'm pretty sure I justifiably pride myself on is knowing that everyone will have things they can teach you, and you're always going to find out that something you think you know turns out wrong - you just don't know what it is until you get there.   Just the bursting enthusiasm that comes with ADHD when you hit something that gives you dopamine dumps can come across like you think everyone else is wrong or don't matter. But yeah, I'm a software engineer by trade and also do tuning in weekends and 100% have long had a reputation for  quickly making connections when resolving problems or forming solutions that I've sometimes had to take people form a long walk from start to end to explain how I ended up where I did when it's seemed "too simple" when I've stated my initial case, and had the "WTF" type reaction when they've realised how much was actually considered haha.   My reward is that I get all the curly problems thrown at me.
