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?

    • Yea - I mean I've seen my fuel pump which is decades old and uh, while I'm not saying this with real knowledge... but I sure get the ick at using anything in the fuel system that produced the state of that pump. Many years ago I went through multiple pumps (and strainers) before I dropped the tank to clean it out with extreme violence. I'm talking the car would do maybe 50km before coming to a halt, which resulted in me cleaning out the filter with some brake cleaner and going on my way. None of my stuff ever looked like what came out of your fuel tank. I don't think I'd be happy with it unless every single component was replaced (or at least checked/cleaned/confirmed to be clean here).
    • I'm not going to recommend an EBC pad. I don't like them. Just about anything else would suit me better. I've been using Intima pads for a while now.
    • Agreed, and in particular the earth strap that should go from the subframe to the chassis but it often broken or left off. There is a section in the R32 workshop manual you can follow for troubleshooting if you don't see anything suspicious, and depending where you are (there is no location on your user profile) you should be able to get your hands on a second hand replacement unit still if needed
    • Yeah they mention as a R34 for 2.5 Turbo...but then again thos "small" were also for R34 by that different site. But i look into it and that 310mm EBC is for R34 GTT. And by those you linked the specs are the same 🙂    EDIT: I found these on one site here: DBA 4000 series T3 DBA42304S They are 310mm...and it says are for R34GTT...are there good? EDIT2: ok they have pads too.  What "color" should i get for street use? I dont want/need some noisy ones...(and if they are not that dusty that is good too)
    • Yeah, shame. Maybe  driver's carpet is available 🙏. I am waiting for both amayama and nangun to confirm.
