OK friends, to prove how much these guys want these tyres gone, for every person that buys 2 or more tyres, your name will be entered into a raffle between all the other purchases from this GB ONLY, so VERY good chances of winning!

The prizes are as follows:

A Federal Motorsports Jacket worth $80!

And a Federal Motorsports Cap worth another $20!

Raffle will be drawn at the end of June.

And to those people that have already purchased tyres don't worry, your names are already in the raffle ;)

Remember, you WILL NOT find BRAND NEW, UN-USED SEMI SLICKS straight from the supplier to your door for this price for a VERY long time to come, if ever!

Anyone know what these are like as a daily driver on the road and also if they are suitable for the drags?

I drive my Skyline every day and at the moment I am running Federal 595RS-Rs (the successor of the 595RS semi) on the street. With the recent rain here I can honestly say that they are much the same as a street tyre when it comes to the wet, if not slightly better. :ninja:

dooooof. 265/35/18's

caarn man, you can do it

You're right, I can... FOR CLUB MEMBERS ONLY TONY! :rofl2:

when I've joined your club lol you got these in stock... 255/35/R18?? want 4 <<<do i get 2 raffle tickets :D

Yeah they will be in stock, but they won't be this price, and no, no raffle tickets... well, I might be able to squeeze you in :sick:

i gotta say this is damn cheap for a damn good tyre! Ive had these on my car for 6months now and they are among some of the best tyres ive driven on wet and dry!

Ive never had this much confidence in any car in the wet before

What would be the best for 17x8 for front and 17X9, not looking for super low profile.

Ideal fitment would be 235/45R17 front and 255/40R17 rear if you are after maximum traction, but you can vary anywhere between 215 - 235 on the front and 225 - 255 on the rear safely (depending on the tyre)...

It depends on what type of driving you are planning on doing.

i put the 235/45's on my 17x8's. whats the ideal hot temp for these? i was trying to keep em around 40psi on the track as i wasnt sure how

hard the sidewall on these are?

what would it be for 2 255/40R17 and 2 235/40R17 posted to QLD sunshine coast

It would be $420 as we are not offering 255s, only the 235s are available.

:sick:

Ideal track pressures would be about 34 - 36psi cold as they will pick up around 6 - 8 psi when hot... I have found that ideal temp for track use is between 60 - 80 degrees on the tread face.

The sidewalls in the 595RS are fairly strong but when used on the track they can fold under a bit, keep checking the sidewalls for signs of wear and adjust your pressures to suit. :sick:

OK fellas, as was promised, the prize draw for the jacket and hat has been done, and the winner is...

*DRUM ROLL*

ssxRicho!

A PM has been sent for an address and what size jacket you want :sick: Congrats!

    • A few small updates since the previous post and lessons. I decided to do a little interior light upgrade on the 110. I quite like the iilumo items, even if they're a bit of a premium over other brands. You'll also note the Stedi Fogs, that will go into the S15 fog lights as I needed to match the bulbs since I got the new ones earlier. I hope they fit as the body is quite a bit longer than your normal bulb.  Annoyingly, I managed to trip the fuse, which normally wouldn't be an issue until I located the fuse. I can't say I've ever come across this. I had lucked out that someone nearby had a spare, but oddly enough Toyota dealerships seem to keep this in stock. I ordered some to keep in my stash and as luck would have it, someone else nearby tripped the same fuse so I passed on the favour.  I also did a little service on the 110 ahead of some additional work coming up. It's been annoying that Goleby's stopped carrying this particular HKS filter for the 110, so now I need to keep them on order from Japan. I also took the opportunity to install a bash plate and number plate riser. The plate riser is such a cheap but nice fix to help really tidy up the car. I'm tempted to now also replace my headlights, on this car. Both items were from Project Aero.    I also needed to replace the rear tyres on the 110, and after trying to get it aligned learnt that I need to replace some bushes in the front end, so that's next.  Closing out this update with a nicer picture as always! 
    • Yeah mate, never miss it.
    • Any going to watch World Time Attack at SMSP this year?
    • Appreciate the correction on the "ground", that will make a huge difference to looking at this. That makes complete sense about AF70/AF71 which is what I had come down to being the issue, one of these. I'll have another look in the ignition wiring when I get a chance next week. I'll also make up a jumper wire for running that AF73 test.  ECU is fine, relay itself is fine, pump harness is fine and the pump itself is fine. I am going to upgrade the Walbro 255 anyway with a DW300 I have since I need to replace the fuel sender and I'm going to upgrade the FPR with my chasebays kit ready for new plenum/injectors/dbw, but I'll get this working first. That's why this is so frustrating.
