Ah right. although, if you have 3 mm clearance, that should be 3mm clearance?! on topic but off topic theres less than a mill between my rim and coilover on the golf ha, the kerb protector yoke was rubbing till i drove it and now its custom tyre to coilover clearance yo!1:cool:

grange
25-10-12, 22:48
sorry let me refraze if i drop the car 3 mil it will the coilover. il get a pic to show you what its doin. i had bolt on spacers , but for some mad reason the meisters on the front dont have the groves cut out inbetween each stud hole so they wont work. and when i had the back dropd i struggled getting over the speed ramps in fas =[

26-11-12, 19:02
it was low when i startd there. but them crappy speed bumps didnt agree. thank fuck i havnt got the bn kit yet cause i wouldnt last to long goin in and out of there. the fronts up in the air cause i was waitn on my spacers that came on friday.my wheels wouldnt clear the new coilovers and with the coilovers that i picked up the week befor i was just letn them settle befor i dropped it. cut a long story short i got lazy and didnt bother lowering it yet. what you startn in there?

ali-d1936
26-11-12, 19:26
Do you need the 25mm spacers tho? Christ that will push the front wheels out a fair bit! I have 5mm slip on spacers some where Ya can have them if i found them should giv Ya enough to clear the coils

grange
26-11-12, 19:43
had 5mm on them and they where shtuck under the first collar. all il ask is dnt u take any pics of it up in the air u will kill me haha. i had 20mm spacer there also but the back of the front meisters dont have grooves in the back of the wheel so i would have to chop the nuts that hold the spacers on. that sounded messy so rico of here popped over with some 25mm spacers to get an idea of what it would look like and how the wheel would be stickn out. it wasnt anything crazy so i got some brand spanking new ones :) the fronts are 9j +35 . there now + 10

i need to get lower and narrower front tires next. there 235/40s

ali-d1936
26-11-12, 20:08
Get 225 i had them on my 9s for years nice profile on them have them on 10's now so its safe cheap too :) ah bolox to that, no way to just get regualr old nuts with the right thread? But suppose if they look ok at 25mm belt away haha,

grange
26-11-12, 21:20
il just stick with the 25mms :P yeah 225s or 215s will see what pops up . did u get arches sorted yet?

ali-d1936
26-11-12, 21:43

grange
26-11-12, 21:50

ali-d1936
26-11-12, 21:56

11-02-13, 13:16
so i swapped the skirts for a bn front bumper for the skyline. because there are no skirts so i gota wait till hey have them back in. my big update is im goin up to get a rb25 on sunday. i wont be fitting it till i have everything sitting there and is all ready to bang in.like custom prop and gear box mounts. althouth i was sent a link that was on zilvia.net that was sayn a auto r33 gearbox mount will work fine so i might even try one that i can get a lone of to see if this actualy works. iv a question for you rb heads. if i put a rb20 box on the rb25 im goin to clear the tunnel without having to bate the shite out of the tunnel. is it goin to last long? also what turbo would be a nice lil upgrade? gt35? precision 6262? or what else is there that would be a good uprated turbo?
