Tyres for stock r33 rims


Recommended Posts

Guest andrewjread

Gday all.

Finally got my approval ..YAY!

Has anyone got some tyres with enough tread to pass the pit inspection. New they have quoted me $150-160 a tyre so any price cheaper than that will be good.

Another question is what air filter should I ask the compliance shop to put in. Just a standard one ? or how much more would a brand name one cost.

Cheers.

I have a blitz power sus panel filter if you are interested, I also have a new paper one (was fitted for compliance) you can have the blitz for $70 and the paper one for $10 if you want. As for tyres you need *brand* new tyres on all 4 rims to get it over the pits, so my suggestion is buy some decent ones and then get some new mags and wheels when they are worn. Or if you have plenty of dosh buy some cheap 205/55's (I got some ceat tornado's for $130ish per corner) and then sell the stock rims and get a nice set of japanese deep dish rims alla 18x9" and get some nice dunlop rubber to suit :)

    • Possibly avoid using a Cometic one unless the deck/head surface are perfectly flat. I did have a look just then and forgiving gaskets such as Tomei or Nitto don't exist for the FJ20, however the Bar-Tek or Kameari ones look good and might do the trick.
    • Because pipe threads for pipe things. M threads for bolt things. Throw some teflon sealant onto it and dust your hands off knowing you did the right thing, instead of going twice around the block to achieve a result using the wrong things. Of course, all of these solutions are ignoring the fact that the minimum thread pitch we're talking about here is 1.25mm, with the 1/4" in NPT or BPS being out around 1.4mm. You will need to know that the boss you're tapping has enough thickness for at least a few threads. That's one of the reasons that 1/8" is commonly used - because the pitch is <1mm. And why would you look to use 1/4" NPT in a BSP country anyway? Ugh.
    • Just throwing around ideas, does it need to be in the compressor cover? Why not the hot side piping?
    • 1/8NPT drill size = 8.7mm. Since the hole got messed up by me, it’s probably around 9mm.    So 1/4” NPT would be next step. A drill size of around 11mm would be preferred there which is not way of my M12 (drill 10.5mm and tap M12 threads)
