Nah not you mate, i meant SilverS2, info on his setup would probably help both of us, though if you put 9.5's on with no suspension work your car will look like shit.

+22 on a 9.5 will clear the coilovers at the front from what ive stuck in the calculators, but will have some serious poke without camber, lowness, roll/flare and most likely 225's.

Should be sweet at the rear with just a rolled guard. I think it works out to be pretty close to a 10" wide +18 in terms of fitment.

If anyone knows the final word on inner clearance it would be awesome if you could post it up, pictures would be good as well.

cheers,

Jess

Hey, didnt see this post till now, on the rear the 18inch by 9.5 with 30 offset 245 tyres, was needing rolling, and thats with tein coilovers lowered bout half way i think, sits nice on back, the front was definitely causing problems with 9.5wide and if i was to do it again id be going 9 or 8.5 wide.

i have 9.5 on front 30 offset, 245 wide tyres and it was dramas, the guards cuts up the tyres if its low, ive put some camber on and lowered a bit with rolled arches now, but its just scrapping slightly on full lock, but also due to guy that rolled them didnt do it perfectly but its not a huge problem now.

It all depends how low you want to go, the lower you go you run into problems on the front, with the tein coilovers it goes on like 2 or 3 wheels up a steepish driveway and ends up having trouble scraping and wheels spinning, so if your want the 9.5 it will have to sit medium height .

i think ill try 235/35 next time on front if possible, cause its right on the limits as it is, but just doable depending how low you go with the suspension.

I would say dont go 40 profile on the front , keep it 35 so that theres more clearance in the wheel arch and go less than 245 on front but you'll need them rolled on front still probably. then you'll have a full wheel arch and the widest that you can go and most aggressive offset too.

hey guys. pretty sure 18x9.5+20 will fit an R34 taxi with a roll a little camber and a little stretch. but would like to be adamant. can anyone confirm this?

dont want to buy the wrong sizes etc

thankscheers.gif

Help please?

Got two options for my 32 gts-t (coilies, front/rear camber arms, rolled guards):

1) 18x9.5 +22 all around

2) 18x9.5 +18 Front

18x10.5+18 Rear

Pretty sure first ones will fit with some camber, however, 2nd set I'm worried will be pushing it too far. Although, I do want something crazy. Opinions?

hey

i've got an r34 with work xt7 18x8.5 +32 and 18x9.5 +38

i don't think the rims suit the car so i'm looking at some xd9's and some others

anyway i'm pretty sure it should be ok but i thought i'd check i'm looking at going 18x9 +30 and 18x10+38, i should be able to get away with those sizes without any guard work?

they offsets it has now are good but i'd just like it to be that little but more flush with the guard

as you can see below it's not that low at the moment, i haven't had a chance to get around to playing with the height yet so i can lower the car as needed after getting the rims so it doesn't scrape on anything

yeah at the moment it's just not quite flush on both front and rear by the smallest amount, i can deal with it out a tiny bit on the rear, no 'moderfercation' required lol

Got anymore pics?

I went with similar spec wheels as your current ones, but +35 all round, should sit behind the guards a little (which is what I wanted, as I want to lower the car).

    • Ok glad you clarified on the frenchy’s options , I was worried about if my oem hoses would fit the new compressor or not if I just bought the bracket/compressor kit ,  didn’t realize they also sold a larger full conversion kit. Hmm may just go oem in that case then to make it easy only because I plan to sell this car to upgrade to a 32 GTR or 34 GTT.
    • Right, here's a video of the basic operation at least.  This is what you can expect day to day when you turn the car on and it boots from standby.  The only thing from a media point of view I haven't gotten working is for it to autoplay plexamp when it turns on from standby (it works from cold boot) but that's more of a plexamp problem as it will autoplay other music players.  Also attached is my one stray cable.  It's part of the screen's wiring adapters but there's just nowhere for it to go in my car.  I've just now done a bit of research and found a matching port on a 2010-2014 head unit with BOSE.  Mine has no BOSE so that's that case pretty much closed I think.  Plugging in the Infiniti AC panel basically did nothing for me, so that's a dead end as well.  Next port of call is to mess with this CANBUS module and see what I can find from it.  I found this resource containing the DBC files for a 2010+ G37 : https://github.com/icecube45/Dash_InfinitiG37/blob/master/InfinitiG37.dbc I'll now have something to go from when I try to extract my CANBUS data so I can see if the HVAC Mode, Fan Speed, Temperature, etc. match and also the gear shifter position.  It's a pretty big assumption that it's just mismatched CAN signals but considering all the devices in the CAN network are talking to each other (AC can be fully adjusted just with no info on screen) it might be a safe one.  I will report back WhatsApp Video 2025-02-26 at 12.49.10.mp4
    • Thanks for that Paul.  Do you think if I posted a picture you'd be able to remember where it went? 
    • Sorry Duncan, I didn't get a notification for the replies.  Thanks for responding!  It's a full Android device, but does allow you to use CarPlay/AA as well.  This is the one I bought from NaviRS on AliExpress: https://www.aliexpress.com/item/1005006368602668.html?spm=a2g0o.order_list.order_list_main.111.59aa1802JDzQ0E - the 2K 8G-256G CAM variant but it seems to have gone up by £170 since I bought it!  My purchase was £307.14.   It's not the fastest thing in the world but performs perfectly adequately.  It stays on standby unless I disconnect the battery and let it power down, then it's just a fairly standard Android bootup time from cold.  The DSP Equaliser is very nice and made the standard stereo system sound pretty decent compared to the stock screen.  Perhaps I can take a video of it when I get a sec. It *allegedly* supports the reverse camera, but I'm yet to get that working.  It has options for reverse cam (a camera unit can be bought separately) or 360 cameras (also bought separately).  To be fair it doesn't seem to detect that the shifter was put into reverse but I'm working on a theory about this as well.  At the moment I'm going without which is a bit annoying considering the car is an absolute canal barge but so far I haven't caused any damage I'll grab a picture of the wire I'm missing later today when I can get outside.  My theory, by the by, is that not only is the head unit different, but the CANBUS network has different signals for the different years.  I think this because I have a spare AC panel from a newer Infiniti G37 (as opposed to my Nissan panel) which wouldn't control anything except the volume when I had it wired up with the stock system.  I'm going to throw it back in and see if the screen will respond to it.  I've just ordered an arduino CANBUS module so I can have a look at the signals going around the car and see if I can spot anything.  I'm thinking if I can work out what it's expecting vs what it's getting I might be able to translate and relay the signal back but so far just a theory anyway. I also found this on my travels, so far the only one that specifically matches my car: https://www.aliexpress.com/item/1005002822934280.html?spm=a2g0s.imconversation.0.0.33433e5fgttovi If you look at the picture of the before, it has the card reader slot, and the picture of the head unit is exactly the same as the one pictured in my original post.  I asked if they sell the cables separately but sadly they won't.  I didn't want to just buy this one because it's a super old Android version and only dual core - likely slow as hell. 
    • As above, you did refill the coolant and burp the system before running it again didn't you?
