this is bad advice! Not to mention these are illegal

Because slamming your car and having rims poking 10mm outside the guard isn't.

Hub centralising spacers are fine for daily use - if he told me he was tracking it I would have said no.

clearly you have no idea what is good and bad when it comes to suspension/wheels but im not going to get into an E fight with you...FYI i bolded that section of your quoted text for a reason!

let me know when you have some experience in suspension

How would fitting xxr002 16x8 +0 go for a r32 gtst coupe with 205/50 tyres? I'm wondering how brake clearance would be and if spacers would be needed. I have a guard roller and adjustable camber arms.

brake clearance shouldnt be an issue.....pretty agressive wheels tho! pics when fitted

he's got you there damo... you said illegal, which having rims out of your guards is :P

Won't fit over the front calipers. Knew itd be an issue but was being hopeful lol, time to buy spacers

Thought they would have fit easy, i have 15x10's on my 33 and they fit no problem

Chaps,

After reading through 115 pages of this thread, I have a bit better of an idea of what sized wheels I should be looking at, but this question is more R34 GTT specific.

I'd like to run

18 x 9 +20 Front (235/40)

18 x 10 + 12 Rear (245/40)

I currently only have Blitz ZZ-R coilovers fitted, but open to comments about what other kind of suspension components needed to run this setup.

Cheers,

Shazza

no issues with the coilovers there. Will need to lip the guards on the rear but the fronts will be no issues. would help if you had rear upper adjustable camber arms but shoud be able to squeeze them in without too much hassles

Hi Frosty,

Thanks for the quick reply. I intend on getting a set of rear camber arms, and front eccentric camber adjustable bolts for adjustment regardless.

Would a 255/40 fit on the 10" wheel on the rear, without much issues?

255 is a big tyre you would want to run a smaller tyre unless you go mexican and run camber but then defeats the purpose anyway. if you look at my signature the one on the right is a R32 with 18x9.5 +12 all round with 235/40 an the GTT is roughly 15mm wider each side in the rear

not at all and only if its more than 25mm ;)

The wheel and tyre must be contained within the body work or mudguards (including any flares) when the

wheels are in the straight ahead position.

    • Also, the cause of fuel spills and smells from the top of the tank is almost always the rubber hoses that are up there, not the tank seal.
    • 1. No, as you say you can remove the connectors and fuel lines. Before you do make sure you remove fuel pump fuse and crank the starter a few times to release pressure, and also loosen the fuel cap (just in case the tank is slightly pressurised) as it will pump out the lines otherwise 2. Not necessary but you are right, if it is the factory pump it is at risk of failing after 25 years....Changing it is not hard but potentially not trivial as you have to make sure you have the right pickup/sock for the pump to suit the tank, need to make wiring connections (crimped butt connectors would be fine) and have to mount/adapt the new pump in the right place in the cradle. Not impossible but don't start the job if you aren't confident. Also, the plastic nut that holds that seal in place can be really hard to remove. If you don't have a fuel nut removal tool it generally requires a big screwdriver or similar to bash the ring around a few times before you can get it by hand. Also the fuel lines can be very sticky on the tank lid fittings, hose removal pliers can help or if not twist the hose on the fitting (eg with linesperson's pliers) to break the seal before you try and remove it. Finally, mark the feed and return hoses so you don't put them on backwards and seal them with an m8 bolt to stop crap getting into the lines while working. Add a little grease in the threads of the plastic lid when you go to do it back up as a gift to your future self, and make sure you put it on evenly/not cross threaded.  Having said all that, most likely the lid just needs to be either tightened or removed and put back on without being cross threaded...the seal itself is usually pretty good.
    • Another weekend and another project I have questions about.... I bought a fuel tank sender O ring to install on the car because I'm quite sus on what I've got now.  1. No "whooosh" sound when opening fuel cap 2. If I fill up full tank, there will be a small leak under the car and it comes from the top of the fuel tank, dripping along the side. Stops after a short while 3. Hot days = 50/50 chance to get high as a kite inside the cabin if the car was in the sun for too long This is what I bought: https://www.amayama.com/en/part/nissan/1734279900 My plan was to just replace the O ring but I've got some questions: 1. Does the whole fuel pump assembly need to come out for me to replace the O ring?         Or, could I unplug all the connectors and fuel lines at the top, take off the twisty part (17343) and put in the O ring from the top?  2. Is it a very common thing for everyone to just change the pump whenever doing this?        I see the Walbro 255 gets thrown in a lot but I've got no issues with my pump so far. When I did the tune, I asked the guy to check my fuel pressure and he said there were no issues too. But is it just a good idea to change to the 255 anyway as the old unit may have been in there for so long? The 255 seems to be a direct fit for GTT (I got no soldering iron)  
    • Normal speedtek issues, bin it and go cdoo# or 8hp. So many issues with these gearsets, a mate went through 3 rebuilds and multiple parts with heat, bearing and vibration issues.  
    • I wouldn't go near them, they are rubber seals for a reason. Just chuck new cam cover seals, half moons and the spacers for the screws every decade or two. I add a really thin layer of silicone too and it seems to hold together OK
