Any one here used Potenza G3's, RE-01, Toyo T1R, Toyo R1R?

Im in need of new tyres and thinking of one of those tyres. Also are the R1R a semi slick?

thanks Luke

I run nothing BUT T1R's.... they are, imho, the best tyre out there for street users. There are better track tyres, but the Toyos suit my style..

Diff tyres will suit diff drivers... I know the eagle f1 asymmetricals are rated higher than the toyos in some tests, and I may give them a try some day, but I've been more than happy with my toyo t1r's....

cheers mate, Need a tyre which can take track work also, until i get 34 gtr wheels with semi slicks.

the t1r's will cope with whatever u can throw at them - in a street scenario

they do lose traction during high lateral G cornering (usually when you have 215's - not so pronounced when ur running 265's)

they are one of the best wet weather tyres out there... however I'm curious about the test wheels magazine ran recently where they score the f1 eagle asymmetrical rather highly (i think thats the one?)... either case, it was an interesting report and I think if you're gonna get new tyres, you're going to want to read it so u can select the tyres u want for the specific application...

if you want info about track tyres, im sorry but i dont know anything about that... but ive heard the toyo r888 semi's are very highly regarded

Chef is using the R1R's on his GTR. From memory, they're borderline semi's.

If they're used on his GTR, then they must be nothing short of awesome.

    • 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.
