before you pay $790 for that set get a price for Hankook Ventus K104... same price awesome tyre, far superior to Nankang without doubt cant comment with Fedral never tried them. The Ventus K104 is the shitz ..... 235/40/17 for $190 each and Im using R34GTT mags

edit: ahh 18's my bad. hhmm price the K104's anyway =D

I've got 595 0n 17's. Wear is OK. 33k at present, on the rears. Got about another 5k . Cant tell about the fronts, as a dodgy tie rod end scrubbed them

out.

I find them a bit noisy though.

I put K104's on my car and while I haven't had any traction issues I find the fronts are a bit funny with off centre feel. Maybe I was just spoiled with the Dunlop Formula W10's that were on my car when I bought it... they were clearly a few years old and but it felt like the front end was glued to the road. F*ck they were noisy though.

had federals on my stagea when i got it and they were lucky to last 30,000klms. they are crap and if you really want a decent tyre go for michelin all the way.

i switched and man what a difference in ride, so much smoother and quiet to boot!!!

just my 2 cents

    • Legend. I ended up finding the facebook account of the owner of the first car i sent but sadly he deactivated the account. I think you’re right in saying it’s some sort of well done custom job. Really appreciate your help anyways.
    • Totally equivalent. Stock often goes from the comp cover because that's where the actuator is also installed and the factory needs 2" of hose to make the connection - and it comes as a pre-assembled unit. They totally have a boost reference from somewhere between the turbo and the throttle(s). Oh, jeez. Just do it in M12 then. We don't actually care that much. I would expect any such AN converter fitting to rely on an o-ring or some other seal onto a flat surface under the flange of the hex**, because bolt threads are no intended to provide a pressure seal. unlike..... pipe threads. **which also requires a suitably flat and smooth surface on the turbo's boss to provide the seal.
    • I also used NP   That’s were it’s seems to be the best place to fit it? All schematic shows also that it’s should be referenced from the turbo housing. But idk, I do see high hp cars without any connection or anything to their turbos, so I really don’t know how they connect their things
    • I do have loctite 243 and 246 and a few more models. I could drill it now in place and make new threads for m12 and order an4 - m12 coupling and fit that to the turbo. Run a braided hose to the EBC which I could get a an4 to 1/8npt 
    • So M12 and sealant should be fine?    NPT ” because that’s what I had and what I could get atm.
