Hey guys,

Had a bit of a look on the forum and I did see the wheel fitment thread, however no one was running/I didn't go through enough pages, to see the fitment I was looking at getting for the car I have.

Does anyone have pictures of 18x9.5 +38 WITHOUT Spacers on an R33 GTST?

Looking to see fitment on both Front & Rear. Really want Enkei RPF1's but I feel like the 18x9.5 +15 will be poke-city...

Then again, I feel like 18x9.5 +38 will sit too far in -_-

Points if they are RPF1 but any 18x9.5 +38 rim will do.

Cheers! & if there is any thread that already has this, please link me to it and I'll take this down!

I had 18x 9.5 +30 with rolled guards and had to go 245's all around so i'm guessing + 15 will need some camber adjustments and similar tyre width, GTR spec is 18 x 9.0 +30 which is like the bar as far as a good snug fitment.. beyond that means skinny tyres id say.. but i havnt explored it like the guys on the wheel/tyre thread, the +38 can be done though with 265's as far as ive seen and 10inch wide ..

So you think I could fit:

Front - 18x9.5 +38

Rear - 18x10 +38

And have them inside the guards with good rubber? I don't want it to sit too far inside the guards but I also don't want poke-city -_-

I have rolled guards on a 34 and a slight pull which is considered to have about the same as a 33 (generally speaking, i.e y ou will also need roll and a pull)

I have 9.5 at the front with +27 and it is perfect. So if you want extended studs and a 10mm spacer this will clear just fine. I have 265's all round but the front can be made to fit, but I think you'll be hitting suspension components stock with that fitment.

In short, doing my maths with my own car leads me to believe you absolutely will need a spacer. Yes, I too wish the RPF1 had a decent offset for GTT/GTST owners in 9.5.

Or even 9+22. This size is also perfect but only comes in 17....

Can almost guarantee that 18 x 9.5 +38 will rub on the cast iron knuckle/strut thing (cant remember the name of it for the life of me) on full lock up front, My 18x9.5 +35 (not rpf01s though) required spacers to sit flush and to avoid inside of the rim hitting the cast strut on full lock.. The only real options for decent fitment with the sizes in that chart you have there is 18x9 +35 or 18x8.5 +30 for the front and 18x10 +38 or 18x9.5 +38 for the rear..

Old as thread but what were thoughts about 18x9.5 + 15? Will these poke alot? Obv rolled guards and camber adjustment

Will fit with camber and max 235 tyre size depending on how low you are.

I recently bought 18x9.5 +38 rpf1s for my r34. Just done a test fit front and rear. Rears fit nice. Front hit the brake caliper. This was fitting the rim without a tyre on. Looks like you can get away with 10mm spacer to clear the brakes. Not sure what will happen once I put the tyres on if it’s going to hit anything else on lock

The 18x9 + 35 exist for this reason. - Though for my calcs these will hit the uprights. I have 18x9 +30 and I'm pretty sure I don't have 5mm to spare... more like... 2mm...

9.5+38 is an obvious no, and would slam into the uprights and I'm very suprised that the caliper is the only problem!

I’m also in the market for some Rpf1s for my 33 gtst, non-rolled guards and going to keep them that way. Advice on sizing and any pictures of what anyone’s running will be a big help, as I’m no guru on fitment… 😬

      HyperGear vs Pulsar Turbo RB25DET

      Oops, guess I accidentally deleted the last digit of the video ID. This one drives me nuts. VCT is such a big advantage for basic driveability and it costs very little to do. It's not like we're dealing with an E60 M5 with its dedicated high pressure VVT oil pump + hydraulic line carrying 1000+ psi and all that fun stuff. I also see a lot of people speak poorly about EGR and try to delete it in modern GDI engines. The problem is modern GDI relies on cooled high pressure EGR to improve timing margin at high load + RPM. So unless you're compensating for it by raising octane you have to completely retune when it's deleted.

      R34 GTT RB rough idle problem with weird RPM gauge fluctuations

      By Joni Boi · Posted

      Yeah, I was just trying to show on camera that the manifold is pulling enough vacuum through that hose to pull the diaphram in the stock fpr but couldn't really hear it on film.  Yeah, it's strange. Fuel should be by-passing through the reg to exit back into the tank thus reducing the fuel pressure: Sorry for my awful drawing here (I like to make diagrams to understand it better 🤪) The (temporary) fuel gauge is plumbed between the fuel filter and dampner. I've already eliminated the possible cause of restriction that the return line might have had and it's not that because I placed a long hose from the FPR (exit from the fuel rail), by-passing the 2nd dampner and return line, then straight into the filler fuel cap (as seen on my first vid). And it was still at 50 psi. Which means that I have a fuel restriction between the 1st dampner and the FPR.  Possible causes: Blockage/restiction in the 1st dampner: I know it's not this because I've swapped it out to a known working one from a spare complete neo engine sitting in the shed. Blockage/restiction in the Fuel Pressure Regulator (FPR): Also, can't be this because I swapped it out to a known working one from the other engine.  Blockage/restriction in the fuel rail and fuel rail's lines: this could probably be the case. Maybe red rubber grease got in there when I changed the injectors (with new seals) a year ago? Who knows. The only way to know is if I take the bastard off and inspect it (or swap it to the other spare one), which I think I will just have to do.  Injectors causing a restriction in fuel causing high pressure? Could this be? I wouldn't think so? Because even if injectors were completely blocked, fuel would just by-pass them through to the FPR and exit? Let me know if I'm wrong though. Because if that's the case, it could explain some weird electrical shit where the injectors aren't opening enough or something.  Air bubbles in fuel rail? Can this be a thing? Could air get trapped inside the fuel rail and cause high pressure? Shouldn't though right? Faulty pressure gauge? I just grabbed this old pressure gauge that was sitting in our toolbox at work. I'm going to buy another gauge and see if I get the same result just incase. But it reads the priming correctly at 40ish psi. idk... The spare rb25det neo engine that we have in the shed came out of my brother's R34 that was working perfectly fine before we pulled it out to slap a rb30/25det neo in there. It also has the same xsprut 640cc injectors on the fuel rail still. So I might have to swap them out and see what it does. 😮‍💨

      Yep, like how people insist VCT does nothing, delete them OR say how twin scroll is a waste of time.

      https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5Y3mHN8HbG This is about 450 whp and it's keeping up with a modern GT3 RS. Obviously some caveats to that but I think our brains are all broken by modern car power numbers. It's really everything around the engine that needs to be up to scratch. This particular R32 last time had some random BBK on it and clearly it wasn't good enough because he switched it to AP Racing for this go around. I'm reliably surprised by how much the little things matter when you're modifying cars. Every last detail is critical.
