Wheel offset info

[AirStrike]

Does anyone know of a webste that lists the wheel offset, PCD, backstep, etc for tons of different makes of cars?
Trying to work out some rims for my next car........

[Troy711]

200sx. Trying to work out if there is a 15" rim that will have the same PCD but a big enough offset to clear the calipers.

Hahahahaha,

I'd Rather Roar Than Whistle??????

Hahahahaha, I Guess You've Seen The Light Brother?

Or Are You Going To Do A Gen 3 Conversion Or Something Silly?

No conversion, stick with the SR20. Always been a fan of turbo's, the 'I'd Rather Roar Than Whistle' sig was to combat the ricer 'If it doesn't whistle it's not a missle' crap.

lol i was just taking the ****, i have the msn username v8_symphony, but i'm looking at forced induction 6 or 4 for my next car so i guess i can't really talk. as you say it was just to combat the bull**** ricer image most import drivers give off.

be very wary of the sr20 though, not a bad motor when they're going and all is well. hell expensive to rebuild/work on. anything nissan is like that in my experience as a mechanic. i'm probably looking more in the toyota range, because they're always that bit more reliable, and parts over the last few years have become so cheap for toyota. although i wouldn't knock back another 8, or even stick with the commodores and go for another supercharged 6 with a few mods.

Off topic but factory parts for an SR20 are expensive, aftermarket are quite cheap.

200sx... ???

Haha...Haha....Rice Rice Drifter to go !!!

304 Fuel bills must be getting to ya bro ??? That's why I got rid of my 304 VK.

Buy an EVO if you want a turbo 4 !!! They'd eat 200sx's all day long!

Sorry don't know any sites for wheel measurements.

So nissan will tell me what other makes run the same PCD, etc?? Doubt that, might have to read the post again.

Evo isn't in my price bracket first of all, and second I want something a little different........see to many mocked up Evo's on the street.

1998 200sx is 4x100mm the offset is around 40-45mm. Fits my car anyhoo

Is this SX going to be a daily or track car Dave?

[Low_VX_Taxi]

200sx are nice! big enough to get comfortable in but still a light little car! What are u getting 14 or 15? I was looking at buying one before I got the Toyota, but I was more after a comfortable cruiser rather than a high powered car.

They will give u the offsets u need then go from there doesnt take rocket scientist 2 work that out most of its all trial n error neways specially if ur goin smaller with the same PCD 2 clear the calipers.

[Emackulation]

What kind Dave? S14 series 2, S15?

I already know what the nissan is mate.

[AirStrike]

Yep, S14 Series II.
The S14 series I has the crappy round headlights and the S15 has the weak 6 speed in it.

Wouldn't mind getting some lessons and giving drifting ago, along with maybe some hill climb events.
Stock is 16x6.5 +40.

BANZAI BANZAI BANZAI !

Expensive hobby, I can't think of anything more merciless except demolishon derby!... engines, gearboxes, tail shafts, axles, tires, panel damage!!!

But plz do all of it on the track... I see enough tools on the road trying to kill themselves in Silva's and the tire marks out the front of peoples houses don't do much for people trying to build property values !!! The next tool that lays rubber around here is likely to get a brick through the windscreen.

Yeah I realise the punishment on components, but that is no different to any form of motorsport.
No chance on the street mate, as I posted want to get some pro lessons or something to the nature of that........not Akmal down the street taking me to an industrial estate.

Forget the 200sx man !!! get a mx5 + turbo... check out youtube for some vids !!!

Early mx5's can be had for under 10K now, spend another 10K on everything else and it'll be insane... they only weigh 950Kg so there's the big advantage if you want to drift or go quick... late sx200's are about 1400 Kg.

I'm seriously thinking of a mx5 myself. They've always had great reviews as excellent handling sports cars.

It's not just for motorsport though mate. I want the luxuries they come with, good brakes, roomy (for a 2 door), etc.

nissan motors seem to have fairly small oil galaries in the heads and love a diet of good clean oil and filters on a regualr basis to avoid troubles. at least the people i know with the primera's anyways. nissan do make some tough little engines

Any turbo engine (that uses oil only for cooling) should have regular oil and filter changes. The S14 has the SR20DET engine in it, basically years of hard work to make the best 4 cyl they can offer.
