275/60/15 - $245ea

Would this profile tyre fit my R33?

Would you recommend them or the 40's you mention earlier?

I always thought more profile = more squat upon launch.

Nope, get the 40's mate. Like I said, these are much better tyres than the Nitto's I ran 1.6 second 60 footers on.

Put me down for:

A pair of: 275/40/R17's ($450) &

A pair of: 235/60/R15's ($380)

Total Amount (Excluding freight to VIC 3021) = $830

Please send me final price including freight. Plus your bank details.

Thanks Adrian.

Cheers,

Bill

Glad you like them. Let me know if you guys need racing tips on how to get the most out of them. If anyone else wants these tyres, they will be delivered in the new year.

Will I be recieve mine this week? :nyaanyaa:

Has something gone wrong with the freight?

hey adrian, is it safe to run these tyres with the space between the trye and the shock absorber spring seat being only 7mm or should i be using a spacer as you said i might need too.

Hi Mate. How much room is between the tyre and your outer guard lip? If there's sufficient room, it might not be a bad idea to run a 3mm spacer. Remember that the top of the tyre will lean in towards the shock on launch.

theres enough room for a 3mm spacer, mabie 5mm at the most. I might have to do that until I can get some adjustable upper arms and adjust my camber to positive 1 or 2 degrees. are you using 3mm spacers?

    • So either way it is gearbox out and look what is wrong?  I know about the input shaft bearing. Even before swap/new clutch the it sounded exactly like this: So is that inout shaft bearing or the other was installed backwards?  And can some please tell me the part number for that input shaft bearing? The gearbox is small box from R34 N/A and number is FS5W71C. Thank you  
    • I am yet to see anyone ever regret a quaife or helical. ...other than drifting/skidpan duties. I kind of want to upgrade my factory helical with a Quaife (but really it's not ultimately that different, and is a MASSIVE UNDERTAKING), that's how good the hype is about them, that I want to try them 'just to see'  
    • D2 and Ksport are essentially the same thing and basically just generic Taiwanese manufacture. Better than ChinaBay crap, but... not top shelf. Öhlins have got to be some of the best dampers around, so likely to be a good option. It's going to get to the point though where I suggest you buy from Oz. We have at least 2x excellent options here. If I were you though, I'd be talking to KW about doing something for the R33. There's bugger all difference between that and the 32. In GTR land, anyway.
    • KW only offers a set for the R32 GTR. Popular options are D2 racing, Ksport or Öhlins. I have a D2 Racing coilover set, though I don't know for sure which one.
    • Well, the good news is you have more than one very good option for new coilovers in and around your country. Worth the drive over to KW to talk about GTR stuff.
