After trial fitting my new wheels... ( 15" x 9" et -5) they stick out the arches quite a bit 70mm at the front!! after looking at R30's with overfenders i made my purchase.. Now i need to find lowering springs which seems to be impossible!

ooh. this is getting interesting ;D
doubtfull you'll find anything for this in the UK. and the rear suspension on this is different to the normal R30 saloons. they have IRS, whereas this has a live axle, probably a locally (Africa) sourced axle at that.
R30 is pretty much a C31 laurel. and the UK C31 laurels have live axle. dunno if thats any help?
if you wanted to do it right, you could convert the front end to S13 and use coilovers. and maybe use s13 rear coilover dampers too. assuming they'd fit your car. i'm fairly sure they would...
personally, i'd make my own.

Where did you get the arches from and whats the quality like?
I came very close to buying a similar set of wheels in from the US for my wagon, just 4x114, but got a set banded instead.

Update... Overfenders arrived and they really didn't suit the car.. Put new brighter bulbs in the lights.. far better now.. The massive update really is that i've refreshed the interior and put new wheels on my R32 ... 4 stud ftw!!

nice. hopefully you'll be happy with these on the car. i really think the car needs to get a lot closer to the tarmac to really improve it though..

Hi Gary! As I said I wasn't going to ruin it when it's done it will look great I promise , the front suspension spring look like R33 so I can use lowering springs.. Il research on the rears soon but need to get the Hayashi's polished and fitted first
