Default guest timezone 'by country'

[محروم.كوم]

I currently have my forum set to US Central Time but want to change this for UK guests.

I have an IP lookup that puts the guests country code into $countryCode.

What hook and variable would I have to put in the following code to override the default time format for UK users?

PHP Code:
// what hook?

if ($countryCode == 'GB' && !$show['member']) {

// change offset
$XXXXXXX == 0; // what variable controls time zone offset?

}

Any help would be great,
