I would not trust my line with $90 tyres full stop , but for a few extra bucks It could save your life or someone else's .

High power car with cheap tyres , Why dont you just drive your cars on an ice road . (just plain stupid)

Do your research first boys and girls .

They tell you that 20% rule of thumb, just to sell more tyres :D

Well better an experienced driver/racer on 20% worn Continentals or Bridgestones, than a P-plater hoon with race rubber.

Cheap price does not mean cheap tyre.

looks like i'll be after a cheap set of rears for my car to cover a few months before i have some spare cash for good ones, all these trips to melbourne have killed my tires, just a cheap set of bridgestones will have to do (don't want to go to crap)until i get them fitted my car is off the road :D

I'm selling the track bike now, with tyre warmers, race stands, spare gearbox, fairings, levers etc.

Ready to hit the track, ready to race.

2002 GSXR 600

$5000 for quick sale

thats a decent deal IMO

any engine work?

Im a fan of the hankook k104 ventus tyre

17's but Im sure you can find 18's somewhere

not much road noise, good sidewalls, dont get out of hand either on a 200kw stagea

thats a decent deal IMO

any engine work?

Engine is stock on the inside, although it comes with a full Leo Vince race system, 750 USD forks, RaceTech valves etc.

I do have Yoshimura adjustable cam gears and cams to go into it, I just never got around to it (after the workshop had my bike for 6 weeks and still hadn't fitted them before a race day, so I took my bike back and never went back to finish the job).

Its a decent deal because I have too many bikes ... I won't be racing this season due to broken shoulder ... so I'm selling for quick sale.

I smashed my 34 because I bought shit tyres which went hard quickly (well harder than when I bought them) and then I spun the car and put it in the wall .. Write off.. High performance car, high performance tyre.. no other option unless you use it as a daily and dont put your foot down (which if anyone says is them is a lier!)

learn to drive? :)

haha as long as you got good tyres up front and have decent car control you shouldnt be having any issues... :( everyone loves a bit of fishtailing.

unles youre still running hicaids... then get rid of that shit too :D

/shit stirring

The issue is that he dug up an old thread from 2 years ago, in which the OP's question was extensively answered, and added to irrelevant garble that would be MUCH better suited for discussion in the wasteland. If every user went and dug up an old post and posted some crap in it, imagine what the forums would look like in a weeks time. You need to examine the other side of the coin once in a while guys.

too true, it can go to shit pretty quick. i dont really need to know about someone looking for replacement valve caps in 1989

on the flip side i should get mad props for posting a humorous yet relevant picture

on the flip side, i might be considering 18" rims (which I am) and wondering about what other people on the forums are paying for their 18" tyres...

-D

    • So, this shouldn't be such a mission, but there were a few tricks so I thought I'd post up a DIY for it. This was on a Q50 Red Sport but I doubt any other V37 model is very different (maybe just less steps for the intake heat exchanger hoses) I pulled the radiator out to flush it because the car was running hot at the track, but obviously the same steps apply for changing a radiator for any reason including an upgrade. If you are removing the radiator, you of course need to drain and refill, so have 5+ litres of blue coolant ready. You don't need to drain the intake heat exchanger to remove the radiator but depending on your plans you may need a couple of litres for that as well. You will also need something to deal with the auto transmission lines, I used 2x 8mm rubber caps on the radiator side, and a short length of 8mm pipe on the car side.....unless you can block these lines quickly you will loose AT fluid and it may be enough to hurt the transmission if you don't refill it. Other than that....lets go... "First, jack up your car". Yes really, and put it safely on stands. If you are not confident doing that you need to give this job to a mechanic
    • If the forester is anything like our old 2007 GTB Liberty, I could near on run ling Long's and "rate them", as no matter what, it just hung to the road, even when abusing it in a hard launch in the wet, or throwing it at corners.
    • LOL, all of the CAI like Craig I just need to put a hole saw through my bumper Done and dusted, the car runs, which is nice, I'll take it for a spin when the weather clears up Just need to put the bumper back on for good
    • Brooooo Please send ABS control unit schematic Please! R33 gts25t ABS (Its two plug ecu, black and white) wire colors possible? [email protected]
    • Don't even try to run it on the stock ECU if you're going to have the boost controller bring boost above ~10 psi. I've already told you that. If you use the Nistune ECU, you will need to CAREFULLY read the available documentation for Neo tuning, and read some threads on the Nistune forums, to discover the various things you have to do to prevent the ECU from going bananas when the boost is too high. The is a table associated with th boost sensor that must be modified to prevent it from shitting the bed. This is just one of the things that you will need to do to the tune in Nistune, because the Neo turbo ECU will be expecting to see a number of things (such as the TCS) that are not there, and you have to block the DTCs on those. It is totally not surprising to me that you are having the problems that you are, but the solutions to these problems have been known for >15 years. So just get it done.
