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?

I've got the 9.5 +22's all round on a 33 gtst, and i am running 265's front and rear. Only a guard roll and splash guards removed.

I'm running about -2.5 front and -1.5 rear.

No scraping/rubbning at all

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

Much poke with that size on the rear? Pics?

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

i'm running 225/40 on the front with -3 camber it scrubs when i drift but it will depend how low you go to notice scrubbing. On the rear i've got a 235/40 but i'm running 0 camber at the moment and have a pre existing flare of 25-30mm

I have trawled through this thread and it seems no one is running a very aggressive fitment on a ER34 coupe. Everyone has shitty offsets with little if any guard work.

I am purchasing Varrstoens 2.2.1 18" wheels. I was initially thinking 18x9.5+22 front, 18x10.5+30 rear, but after talking to a few people and looking through basically every post in the entire thread, I have decided it is not flush/aggressive enough for my liking.

What I am not sure of is if the guards are the same front and rear. If they are, I am thinking 18x10.5 + 15 all round. Only problem is it may scrub inside the guard on the suspension or arm, which I have no idea how much clearance I have. I can't really go 18x9.5 because the lowest offset they offer is +12 and that is (I am quite sure) not enough poke for what I am after. I plan on running 245/35 on the 10.5 or 225/30 on the 9.5. I have my guards rolled, I have the front liners removed, I have up to -2 camber from the coilovers and I will put camber arms on if needed. I don't really want to flare the guards.

I need some REAL opinions from people WHO ACTUALLY KNOW WHAT THEY ARE TALKING ABOUT.

Shoutout to nisskid for helping thus far.

just pull the guards... it's a cheap import, not a bentley

if you want to put 10+15's all round you are going to want to pull the guards or run a LOT of camber. depends on how much power you want to make really.... if it's more than stock then i'd look at pulling them reasonably far so i could run the rears a little flatter.

you will get away without flaring, but you'll definately need to pump all 4 guards.

it's only 10mm more than what i'm running on a 33, and 34 guards seem to sit abuot 10mm further out and i managed it pretty easily and it's flat enough to put down 300+ rwkw

here took some better ones.

18x9.5 +22 with 265 hankook z221's

rears have 7mm spacers

Looks mint! I cant believe the 265's sit like that on a 9.5 +22, especially on the front. I think when i get new wheels, ill run a thinner tyre on the front and dial out a bit of camber to help with tyre wear.

What was the reason for the 7mm spacer in the rear? Inner scrub issues?

rota grid 18x9.5 +20 all round,

Those should only sit out 2mm more than the +22, yet the front sits out a fair bit more than other photos. I know yours is a 34gtt, but i didnt think they was that much difference between fitment for 33gtst and 34gtt.

What camber are you running front and rear? Loving the colour/look of your car !

yeah funny how the fronts look like they stick out more than the rear, but i get that with mine also, its hard to get the rears looking more aggressive than the front on a gtst, you car looks very purposeful, show and go...

      High temp brake fluid?

      By Komdotkom · Posted

      Reasonably hard, although I haven't run it with the new Endless setup yet. The old brakes were F50's on 335mm rotors and the car did a 1:40.6 at Phillip Island which is a reasonable time, I'm seeing high 600s on the temperature paint. A guy I know ran the Endless fluid at WTAC without issues and he was doing 1:33's I think (Evo) with a 355/332 setup. I don't get out to the track as much as I'd like but we put the car on the hoist and spanner check every bolt and re-paint mark everything, bleed the brakes, change the fuel, check the coolant system and re-bleed blah blah blah before every event. Motorsport is expensive, RB's are expensive so a couple of hours before an event is time well spent. It's also a net time saving because if you can keep your RB from self destructing it saves you time in the long term!

      Hello! I'm new here, I have an R33 GTST that is currently being finished up! Last year was pretty rough, blew two stock turbos so I decided to build the car. Has been down since November, but I get it back next weekend!

      Hello, I believe my car was imported to America in the 2000s by Kaizo Industries. Would anyone be able to help me find more info on them? I've only found all the basic stuff like that paul walker bnr34, them being shutdown by feds, just stuff like that. Any help would be much appreciated, thanks!

      HKS Vcam Step Pro Issues

      By believer · Posted

      I am using Motec M150.  I am not working on the car myself actually.  My workshop is giving all these info, they are quite reputable in the industry and are very familiar with Motec and RBs and have done a few big setups with VCam and single turbo on RBs.  In fact, they built and tuned my engine from day one.  But they are stumped with my engine at the moment and cannot work out how come the compression is so low with the VCam. They told me that they have now swapped in some Kelford cams (without the VCam) and can achieve around 130psi compression and the low end torque is better, but now the engine is doughy as.  It boosts and peaks at more than 1000rpm slower, with twin HKS GTIII RS, it doesn't get full boost until over 5000rpm. I have always thought the VCam was a bit disappointing at the low rpm. To a point I had to ride the clutch a fair bit to get up a small hill from stand still.  That was when I had a clutch.  Now changing to a 8HP, I don't have that luxury and this problem has become a major issue. I am beginning to think the VCam never work since the day it was installed.  Maybe it was just sitting at the most advanced point, that is why it went good at top end but very ordinary at the bottom.  Therefore, with the help of the Holinger 6 speed and paddle shift, as long as it was moving, it drove pretty good.
