xd9's look best in 17x9.5+17 fr and 18x10+18r

you can go either of those sizes all round, but if you want the 18's all round be prepared for a decent amount of wok to get the fronts to fit,

Skyline model = R33 Gtst

Wheel diameter = 18" Rays Gram Lights 57Gainer

Wheel width = 9.5"

Wheel offset = +22

Tyre size = 235/40/18.. Nitto NT05 front, Federal 595 rear

Modifications to fit = all guards rolled

Haven't really seen many 34 gtt's with aggressive fitment so thought i should venture to push the envelope on fitment.

What are thoughts on running 18x9.5 +19 Fronts and 18x10.5 +14 rears on 225/40 front and 235/40 rear tyres

What sort of guard work do you guys believe would need doing and opinions on the matter

Thanks bud, just stock arms but I've got some bushes in the back to pull a bit of camber out.

Maybe -2 or so?

cool.

Iin the photos, it almost looks like the front poke a little more than the rears.

Did you have to roll the guards pretty much flat? I always thought the guards would need a light pull front and rear with those sizes but they dont seem too bad in terms of how much they sit out of the guard either.

Any chance of some front and rear pictures in line with the side of the car that show exactly how much they sit out?

No pulling/pumping, only rolled the lips up.

I'll get some pics up soon

What suspension HEKT1K? Do you get any scrubbing over bumps up front or anything?

Tein Super Streets atm... but they are pretty much stuffed, so I'll be upgrading to something a bit stiffer soon

Doesn't really scrape unless the wheel is turned, going up crappy driveways etc. I'm sure with some harder coilovers it will be even better

That fit is prefect. I can't believe they fit that well with just a roll!

How do you think the rear would go with a 255/35? Probably need a pull to get it under you think?

18x9+7 front 18x9.5+7 rear

awesome fitment im looking at 9.5 +15 all round on 235/40/r18. So 2mm further in on the front and 8mm further in on rear. How much camber are you running and what work did you do to the guards.

Cheers

    • Pete knows these cars well, he does my car too, if he was concerned about the traction arm length for your use he would have said so. Do you have adjustable bushes in that arm, maybe he got enough adjustment there (or maybe the bump steer was not material for your use of the car)
    • Hmm. Yes. I should have been clearer. 1000s for Haltech, for extra headroom. 725s for Nistune. You might even be OK with 640s, but if the possible power ends up much more than 300 rwkW you will run out of headroom on the 640s. That would probably be OK and a signal to not push it to that sort of power with Nistune anyway. At that level you probably do want to be thinking about engine protection functions. Oh, and all of that presumes 98 only, not E85. Well....the 1000s would allow you to run E85 at ~300rwkW territory, again, maybe sort of running out of headroom. Hard to tell with E85 - depends on the tuner as to how rich they like to set it up.
    • Yes.  The only scenario I can imagine when the answer isn't yes, is if you drive like there is highway patrol behind you at all times.  If your car currently runs, enjoy it and keep saving. Better costs more, keep saving until you can budget the better ECU. It's worth it.  Nope. Plenty of us making >300kw on unopened motors. Mine is unopened and makes about 350kw if I turn everything up, its fine (lots of caveats here, how the car will be used/abused, how long you expect the engine to last between rebuilds, how has the engine been maintained prior to coming into your ownership, etc etc).   
    • Sorry just wanting to clarify, at this power goal, which should I be going? Also, More info regarding suspension, the rear upper camber arms were used to get the camber back to i believe around -0.5 ~ -1 degree (@ Road and Race in Rydalmere), I forgot the exact figure, but ALOT less camber than what it came originally which was like -2.5degrees. Are the traction arms still recommended? The bilsteins from SydneyKid, they've got 400lb/in fronts & 275/in in the rear, revalved to his specs. Intercooler, I'm just having a look at some on Rakuten.jp and some other japanese sites. Might get something from back there, GReddy, Blitz or HPI, all crossflow. Looking at roughly $450-$500 AUD + shipping... Theres not many choices except that chinese branded Justjap unless you go for blitz return flow. Yeah, only downside with Haltech is the price ahhaha, so expensive, and with all the sensors if I go that route... $$$$$ yeesh. Are headstuds/gaskets needed for <300akw?
