what so good about them???

As mentioned it's replacing the S03 & supposedly was tested at Mallalla against the S03 & had better lap times.

Bridgestone seem to be very confident with it's performance as they've spent $$$$ on marketing.

I was quite impressed with the Adrenalins & will definitely be getting a set once I go through my T1-Rs.

I had G3's on my old VR V8 cop car.

ok tyres, but really, for the cash, they were crap.... crap i say. wife lost it a cple of times. just didnt have the grip youd expect them to have, on a slippery surface.

best priced and performing tyres Ive ever used on a car are my current fare; Hankook Ventus K104 awesome tyre, $190 ea for 17x 235

I dont see how you can lose traction with these tyres on the street - if you do then you're doing something wrong. ie coming too hot into a corner, or perhaps braking thru the corner (big no-no; always end your braking B4 you hook into the crnr)

mind you, i do have AWD and a few extra hundred kgs in the stagea so maybe that makes a difference to a RWD skyline, in the way that they handle..... but this set should last 4yrs (35,000kms). top value. id argue that with anyone.

best bike tyres Ive had were Michelin Pilot's, top of the range goodness :) $290 for rear and $230 for front. worst tyre was Michelin sports, long range tyre not made for kneedown cornering. meant to last 12000kms, I ripped mine up in 5000 lol.

michelins hot spot is in the high temperatures tho isnt it, whereas bridgestone is better known as an all rounder and wet control tyre.

Id take pirellis over both tho. but I am going to go with these andrenalines ive decided.

I had GIIIs on the R34 and they were absolutely brilliant. Only problem was when I went to replace them the rear 255s were going to cost $450 each!

Went for Michelin Pilots and they have been awesome, but as usual I only got just over 10,000km from them.

Might try these out next.

    • Hi...so a "development" here aswell The swap is "done" and car went "test drive" BUT it seems the clutch(maybe gearbox?) is a little bit sad? I bought this clutch kit https://justjap.com/products/xtreme-heavy-duty-organic-clutch-flywheel-kit-nissan-skyline-r31-r32-r33-push-type "Problem" is that the first gear is hard to put into and it seems that the clutch is not disengaged. It was not the problem with the old clutch...(or like sometime the first gear would not get as easy specialy when the fluid was cold) So? Can it be like...bad "install" or is the clutch wrong ((it should not have been) i done research to get the right one) Or is this "normal" with new clutch and needs to be break in? 
    • @Duncan I can try  and thanks i did not thought about VIN and part numbers for 33/34. @GTSBoy yeah it looks like iam gonna do that  
    • Forgot to include this but this is the mid section of my steering rack that looks like it has a thread/can be turned with that notch mentioned in the post:
    • Hey everyone, Wanted to pick some brains about this issue I'm having with rebuilding my 33 rack (PN is 49001-19U05). All of the tutorials/videos I've seen online are either R34 or S Chassis racks which seem to be pretty straightforward to disassemble but this process doesnt carry over to my rack. Few of the key differences that I've noted The pinion shaft on the other racks bolt on with 3 torx bolts: Whereas my rack bolts on with 2 allen head bolts: These changes are pretty inconsequential but the main difference is how you pull the actual rack out of the housing. The other skyline/s chassis racks can be taken out by tapping the rack out of the body with a socket and it just slides right out. I'm unable to do that with my rack because there's a hard stop at the end that doesn't let the seal/shaft be tapped out. Can also see a difference in the other end of the rack where mine has a notch that looks like you're able to use a big wrench to unthread 2 halves of the rack whereas the other racks are just kinda set in with a punch. My rack: Other racks: TLDR; Wanted to know if anyone has rebuilt this specific model of steering rack for the R33 and if there were any steps to getting it done easier or if I should just give this to a professional to get done. Sorry if this post is a bit messy, first one I've done.
    • I would just put EBC back on the "I would not use their stuff" pile and move on.
