Hmmm.... well the RE5040's on the front and RE55S on the back seems to be a good mix atm, weren't too bad in the wet/damp in the hills tonight, the 104km/h dinger is freiking annoying and the car definitely still has the speed limiter, though it seems to be off the clock when it hits it, was somewhere near 6000 in 4th?  Not sure, wasn't really paying much attention to the dials

Yeah thats bout where the 180 limiter is Adam, round the 6000rpm mark in 4th gear...100km/h dinger?? I don't have that option THANK****!

Anyone using 4piston calipers and have rims that fit? Its a nightmare of mine.I had to fit longer studs,fit spacers and then i can only use a 6.5" rim with a 205 tyre on the front to keep the tyre off the strut.sad me.

A bit late I know, but I presently have 16 x 7's +38 Mirage 5 spokes up front and they will fit fine with a 1 inch spacer to clear the 4 spot caliper.

Best spacer is bolt onto the hub, and has it's own standard studs to mount to, they are also the only type CAMS will approve for hillclimbs & supersprints.

I also have a set of BSS Lorinser rims (ex Mercedes) modified to 4 stud and they are 3 piece rims and I am getting new inner rims made up to widen them in an inch, so that I will then have 16 x 8's all round.

Cheers,

Dennis

    • 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.
