awesome...

interesting because i dont know about drags, they say over the speaker that slicks arent great for drags

i would have thought in the dry theyd be great, provided they were warmed up by the obligatory burnout first....

anyone got an answer?

I think he means they arn't good handling wise and as predictable as street tyres are. When the rear gets out of shape they bite back hard and can sling shot the car into the wall once they get traction again because of the big sidewall, low pressure and soft compound.

Correct Josh.....a drag slick is a totally different animal to a circuit slick.

Unlike a circuit slick which can be eased out of traction loss, unfortunately there's no such thing for a drag slick, it's either on or off, no in betweens.

Drag slicks have much softer compound, much taller side walls and can grow up to 50% rolling diameter at full noise...........hence why final ratios differ so much from start to finish on a single run

    • The odometer does go up when driving.  Does this tell it is an issue with the speedometer itself?    Where can I look for replacement cluster? Or speedo? I can likely do the repair.. Will ER34 cluster work on HR34? Or do I need a HR34 20GT S2 specifically lol   
    • Mine's a bit bigger at 70x150mm roughly. The spots are flat, just can feel the edges if I dig my nail into it. I did fix some other other ones by both using my finger to sand that small spot (I'm a bit wary of doing this and creating hot spots and a bigger mess) and I also did sand over it flat and others, but this also worried me a bit because if I create an overall low spot on the panel on paint that is good.  Correct me if I'm wrong but as long as it's flat even if I can feel the edges, I can put filler because it will all be level once I sand it? I can see myself going in a circle after sanding guidecoat with 320 grit if for example the panel is flat with my hand but because I sanded the guidecoat I could have created a low spot again somewhere. Unless where I'm going wrong is what I mentioned previously where I didn't go low enough on the grits. It's 1 step forward and 2 step backwards here haha. I'll probably need to experiment with it more. Last time I go back to bare metal lol.
    • Thanks for the details mate , for me I think being a daily driven and happy with a basic tune (630Nm and 310kw) . Seems to be working well I just put on a set of Michelin Pilot Sport 4 should help put the power down. I'm going to start looking a brakes and LSD in the future so I might reach out to you on options to upgrade the brakes. Cheers - Dee   
    • I have a HR34 GT... RB20DE My speedo doesn't work! The rest of the gauges seem to work, fuel and RPM. I did not notice if my odometer was going up when driving last.  Any ideas? Speed sensor? Hopefully atleast... Gauge cluster perhaps? Or is that unlikely because the other gauges are working?   Any insight is appreciated. This is a rather new to me car. Lol
