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

Recently bought a 33gtst s2 and looking for some wheels. I found a set of 18x9.5 et35 just wondering who else has run this spec and any clearance issues or mods needed?

If you searched this thread you would have found that out.

Skyline model = R32 Skyline GTS-T 4-Door

Wheel diameter = 18

Wheel width = 9.5

Wheel offset = +38

Tyre size = 245/35 (This is a must...)

Modifications to fit = None, but it would be recommended to get some wheel spacers, I am thinking of running 2.5 in the fronts just to push them away from the suspension just a tad as it's a bit close for my tastes.
Stock suspension, fenders have not been touched what so ever.

Has anyone had the A disk on a r32 gtst with R33 gtst brakes on it?

I have A disk meisters with r32 gtr brakes on the front, clears the calipers no worries.

O disk rear.

18x9 +22, 18x9.5 +24, they're on a c35, a mate had the same size on a 32 gtst, but needed more camber and guard work than the laurel, pic maybe not relevant haha

O disk doesn't have as much curve in the spokes to get around the caliper.

Pay to check on the work site but you'll see certain sizes and offsets available on each disk.

Thanks mate!

I run 18x9.5 +11 O disc rear and 18x9 +18 R disc front. This is on a 33, not a 32 but I have no issue with clearance

general rule of thumb:
If you want stock-ish fitment,

8 to 8.5 +35 front
9. to 9.5 +38 rear
These are Nismo sizes for RWD Nissans.

From that baseline, you grab a tape measure an figure our where your new set of wheels will fit.

@Adz2332 please specify what car you have, what body panels, and what modifications you will be running.

 

GT-R owners like me have it easy, but RWD owners, have a bit more calculations to run.

 

You can obviously run "GT-R" sizes, which would be 9"+30. But that heavily depends on your preference.

This rant is completely ignoring any StanceNations specs/looks.

32 gtst. Stock panels but don't mind pulling them ever so slightly as it hasn't gone to paint yet. Stock arms etc with coils.

I was hoping I could get any of the specs below to fit the front to

Hey guys any recommendations for fitment for a stock 94 GTR R32 

Want to order work meister s1 3p and would like a nice looking flush fitment. Plan to get MCA coilovers to set ride height etc. Just confused on offset, brake clearance etc. 

Never purchased after market wheels so I'm a bit concerned since it's a long wait to order and I don't want to order the wrong specs.

The other thing to watch in the meisters is they have different faces to cater for different brake sizes. eg. i run an 'R' disc on the front (biggest clearance for brakes) and the 'O' disc on the rear. it doesnt impact size or offset, its just the shape of the rim face that changes.

      That SSR is actually the same (or similar) as the Jaycar 100AMP SSR (which I use). They suggest the resistor to stop the SSR turning on when the ECU turns off (I believe). I personally don't use the resistor as I use the 5V output from the ECU to supply power to the SSR. I do however run a flyback diode, the old Haltech documentation was wrong too and didn't specify the fly back, I mentioned it to a few of their staff and they eventually added it in.

      Removing sump

      By elohim_imanu · Posted

      I did manage to do this without removing the engine or front cross member, but I had the advantage that the exhaust manifold was removed. I am not setup to support the engine from the top or remove it. 1. Loosen the engine mount nuts so they only have a nut of thread. If it is a manual, I think you have to remove the gearbox to engine support brackets. 2. Jack up the engine off the bottom idler mount. Jack it up till the end of the slot and nut on the mount. You need this clearance to get the pan out at the rear of the engine. 3.Break the sealant seal to sump. I found a oil pan separator tool helpful to get it started. 4. The oil pick up can be removed with the gap available.  5. The oil pan can be removed now. 6. Before assembling, do not apply sealant to the oil pick up area as your hand will rub it all off but apply to the other three and a bit sides. 7. It is a two man job to put the oil pan back, with the sealant, as you do not want it to touch anything and rub off. 8. With one person supporting the oil pan the other can fit the oil pickup 9. Apply the remaining sealant. This would be more difficult with the manifold or turbo in place, but I think it could be done. As you can see my sealant is a bit ugly, but good enough to seal. 10. Lift the sump up to the engine and bolt it on. We found it was easier to use two long guide bolts at each end to get it nice and aligned without touching.

      I find building an exhaust a really satisfying job! Looks nice!   Did you consider using an oval pipe to get the same cross sectional area but keep it above the chassis rail?

      @Dose Pipe Sutututu Sounds good.  Just double checking with the pull up resistor indicated in haltech's info sheet for their SSR - https://www.haltech.com/product/ht-030202-solid-state-relay-100-amp/  I'm guessing that would only be if the ECU did not have an internal pull up resistor? Their instructions are pretty strongly worded lol "1K pull-up resistor MUST be fitted."

      I wouldn't think you would need a flyback diode, as it's an OEM replacement parts for a fan controller/relay on a Dodge. Another tried and tested option are the Volvo XC90 (or similar) fan controllers.
