Thank you to everyone within this thread that answered my questions and provided info, and ultimately helped me select my new wheels (width and offset) Here's the end result (minus big brake kit awa

Thought I'd share my setup since there doesn't seem to be much info/examples out there for this particular setup. Perfect for spirited driving on back/mountain roads, not so ideal for daily driving or

I was considering powder-coating my XT7s in black for my R34, but decided against it.

Now you're making me think about it again damn you lol.

But I must agree with previous comments......one of the toughest 33 GTS-T's around.

Just needs that front lip painted black to finish it off :P

235/40's and rolled guards and you can tuck that easy :)

Thanks for that, what about 18x9 +4 f and 18x10 +4 r would take fair bit of work to tuck them in hey?

Fronts with a 215 or 225 would need a roll and pulling out, depending on height of course. Rear will need a roll and possibly a pull also depending on how much camber your going to run and how flush you want it. But it would look great lol

Mr Hamish,

You reckon you could tuck 18x9.5 +14 in your 33 as is with same size tyres you're using on SSR's?

easy... I have had 9.5+18's on there with no hastles

my new rims are gonna be 10+18's btw

dont forget my guards are pulled tho.... why?

Thanks for that, what about 18x9 +4 f and 18x10 +4 r would take fair bit of work to tuck them in hey?

9+4 would be doable on my rig, but 10+4 would need more flaring or camber.

still easily doable tho

Hamish,

I'm selling the GTR for another GTST, and I remember there's some room in your front guards when you have the professors in when I looked at it last.

So your answer is very useful, thanks for that, how much have you pulled the guards?

Cheers

Grant

Hi All, I've read through this entire thread so I apologise in advance if I shouldn't ask this here (please direct me to the right spot)

I've come across some Works XD9's which are 18x9 +30 all round without tires. From everything I've read it seems these should fit fine on my R34 Sedan and will probably stick out about 5mm on the front? Anybody able to help with this?? Also they don't have tires, what's my best bet in terms of nice fitment?? (or is it best I just take the car to a tyre shop somewhere, I'm in Perth btw)

They are currently bronze but after seeing Blaqs I'm very tempted to go black also coz once you go black... =P

thanks in advance lads

      R32 GTR clutch master cylinder adapters

      By weikleenget · Posted

      I replaced the whole clutch line with the chase bays braided hose, I think it removes that loop, is it the short hose that comes immediately off the slave or is there a drawing in the manual to find what you’re referring to? It was just re-bled when I upgraded to the nismo slave, old slave worked fine but I thought that might help, didn’t change a thing. It’s like the first half of the pedal is pushing air and then when it finally actuates the master the friction zone is tiny. Makes it practically impossible to launch the car

      Yep, that was one of the things we learned fast in the past with our MX5. When you drive with the top down, you are effectively standing out in the sun, 100% of the time, and not getting in any shade (because roads aren't shaded generally!). Just like standing out in the middle of a field on a sunny 27C day is a bit of a bad plan, so is sitting in a MX5 without sun protection.

      I also just ordered some Frankenstein bolts and side mounts to fit a hard top Just in case I do find one, basically so it doesn't need to be fixed to the car with only the front latch.......and then gaffa tape to keep it in place for the RTN journey from wherever I get it

      If your temps are fine now, you probably won't have any issues with where your vents are as they don't look right up at the windscreens high pressure area, so any differences when giving it the beans for extended happy laps would be minimal, but, they should vent heaps when stuck in traffic  Much like how that reverse cowl on my SS let "visible" heat out when stationary, but, because it was basically at the windscreen my coolant temps on the Hwy actually raised because air was being fed into it at speed (110kph), to only come back down to around 90° when I got off the Hwy And your 100% correct about the NC currently not needing vents, but, if I was to add a turbo, and a oil cooler and intercooler in front of the condenserand radiator, and then take it to the track???? It is apparently a recommend requirement if I don't want to worry about coolant or oil temp issues, but, any of the above are possible scenarios, over time As it sits now, with the triple pass radiator and stock air conditioning system, I have absolutely no issues with either temps or air conditioning efficiency, I've been basically daily driving thie car for the last month, both on the Hwy, and peak hour, bumper to bumper traffic, but, that's pretty much expected from basically a standard engine  Talking about no issues daily driving, it was 39° the other day and I was sitting in bumper to bumper traffic on the M5 and then M7, with the top down, and with the air conditioning blowing nice cold air on my feet, balls, and face, well, there was one issue, my head and arms got pretty sun burnt Note to self: leave a hat and sunscreen in the car for such days 🤣

      I would agree, unless you need something specific to the HV motor/battery side repaired or investigated, any mechanic will be able to perform normal services, but if you prefer, maybe look for a mechanic who regularly services/repairs Nissans, the VQ engines are pretty common in the Nissan lineup.  Sorry, I can't make any suggestions, I don't live in Vic.
