MITZ@CougarStore Posted June 13, 2013 Share Posted June 13, 2013 Welcome to the forum, we can help with wheels and exhausts... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KyleR Posted June 14, 2013 Share Posted June 14, 2013 Depends on budget, straight away if you haven't already bought the GTR's, buy them in 19", will look so much better than 18". Exhaust, Cobra and scorpion are good budget systems, in and around £400 for mid pipe and back box. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dan-s14a Posted June 14, 2013 Author Share Posted June 14, 2013 Yea the gtr's are in 18 unfortunately they came off my old car Where can I get a plenum spacer I've seen that its a easy mod to do with a small power gain? Also what are hfc's? As for budget it's not massive ATM as I've just spent most of my money getting the car lol Thanks for the welcome guys Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KyleR Posted June 15, 2013 Share Posted June 15, 2013 Car looks good What offset are the GTR's and what size tyres are one them? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dan-s14a Posted June 15, 2013 Author Share Posted June 15, 2013 They are 9.5j et30 and ATM they have 225 or 235 can't remember but they are pretty stretched I'm gonna get some normal tyres on then what sort of size would you recommend? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KyleR Posted June 15, 2013 Share Posted June 15, 2013 For 18's the normal sizes are 225/45 front and 245/45 rear, so if you don't mind your current stretch they'll be fine. Hopefully someone will be along to give you a better suggestion because I've never ran aftermarket 18's on the zed. You could also use a tyre calculator to get as close to the OEM rolling radius as possible. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pete87 Posted June 16, 2013 Share Posted June 16, 2013 Welcome I'd just leave the tyres and spend money on other things, as for plenium spacers Horsham developments also do them for around £150 I think. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KyleR Posted June 16, 2013 Share Posted June 16, 2013 If the rubber on the OEM wheels is decent, just get it swapped over onto your GTR's, if it doesn't work you've only lost £20 to the fitter Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
