Hi Steve, did you just buy that 34 off someone from the forums? Thought i saw it for sale a while ago.

Anyway, what's your price range? Different people will have different opinions on which tyres to get. Really depends on how much you want to spend. 19s might be a bit pricier.

yeah the silver 34 from qld, im the proud owner!!!

ive been checking ebay and they're around 300-350 each tyre depending on brands. i dont really want to spend big, but i dont want shit either. ill spend if i have to type thing

Wanlis are ordinary. But, surprisingly, took me to a 1.9 60ft a the drags.

They are CRAP in the wet.

A whole bunch of us run Hankook K104

They are very reasonably priced, wear extremely well, and are very grippy.

Then there's the new Hankook K107 S1Evos or something. Grippier again.

at the size you have, all tyres are going to be expensive.

Yeah I found Hankook (Ventus) K104's to be cheap and good. They are silca rubber, which is supposed to mean a longer wearing boot.

I had 235/40/18's and 265/35/18 and got them supplied/fitted/balanced & 4 wheel alingment for $960 new!

Not bad in average wet/dry driving, but like all street treads, they heat up on the track and get slippery.

for 19's... if you are spending $230 a tyre its going to be a death trap.

I put sumitomo's on my 18's @ $300 each... possibly the worst tyre i have ever used.

Useless in the dry, dangerous in the wet.

I should have gone a more expensive option

If you have 19's, expect to be paying around $400 for tyres.

Considering they are posibly the most important thing on a car, i wouldnt be looking to skimp

hi guys

i just got a qoute for those Hankooks k104 $340 each tyre

275.30.19 rear

235.35.19 front

is this a good price?????

tyrepower have been trying to sell me "Marshalls" for $300 each tyre

265.30.19 rear

235.35.19 front

Anyone heard of these "Marshalls"???????

Are they Any good???

need some advice PLEASE.

steve

I used Pirelli P-Zero Nero and they were ACE! It's going to hurt your wallet getting decent rubber for 19's, it hurt for my 18's but it's a must. That's the pirce you pay for large rims. You'll kill yourself with sh|t rubber in a Skyline.

I'm using Hankook K107's on the rear at the moment. They do the job but no where near as good as the P-zero.

ive gone for the Hankooks K104

its booked in for the morning. $335 per tyre Fitted & Balanced.

im getting ready for the SAU cruise tonight.

    • So, version 4 intake is on its way I was looking at these a while ago but at around $200 or more it was a little pricey for something that might not work, but, I had it in my watch list, but, I got a message saying it was on special, and I had a code thingie to use, it eventually came in at $120 delivered, so BAM, BUY NOW.....LOL I'll need to have a look when it arrives but I feel it will "look" better than what I currently have, as it comes with a PCV fitting, so I will be able to get rid of the alloy pipe that goes to the throttle body with the PCV fitting  Well, that's what the voices in my head are telling me  Oh, and this happened today Yeap, it was a Trojan, and it was cheap, so I headed back to the hardware store and actually spent a little bit more on a heavy duty,  one that was actually recommended by a plumber mate, a Cyclone one with a fibreglass handle that is actually rated for clay The broken shovel will eventually be "modified" into a short handle shovel
    • When you pulled it off, there is no signs of blown head gasket? Is it possible you have some other issues going on? Possible cracked blocked? Or do you think it's straight up lifting the head? Did you check what the head was torqued to before pulling it down (To see if possibly they're stretching, or starting to break threads out etc)?
    • Seems like a decent result for a modded JZX110. They are bulky in comparison to the 100 and 90 models (which I'd prefer myself) but they are getting very few and far between here in JP these days. Thanks for the detailed review and the import process into the UK. I also have a car which I'm hoping to export from Japan at some stage so it's good to know if someone from the UK was interested in it. By the way the corrosion underneath is par for the course for cars which were located in/near the mountains or along the Japan sea coastline. They get huge amounts of snow every winter and the sodium chloride is used on the roads. Many cars have some kind of rubber like treatment underneath but they tend to limit it to the wheel arches underbody and fuel tank. Suspension arms and sub-frames will have similar corrosion to your JZX110 which is a common sight. See it all the time and car dealers here generally don't even mention it unless asked.
    • If the sound goes away when you clutch in, the 1.5/2 way diffs are just shit, and you are a normal person. The diff is likely "fine" but driving at anything under 30kmh is a violent horrible experience. It would be exaggerated with solid diff bushings and subframe bushings if you have those.
