Toyo R1R's... decent tyre?

Need new tyres all round and want some quality items. I know Kristian rated them pretty highly? Anyone else running them?

are R1R's the semi slicks?

I'm running T1R's (have been for 2.5 years) and theyre really good... only considering the goodyear eagle f1 asymmetric as wheels magazine rated it a tad higher than the toyos

Supposed to be one of the closest things to an R-compound semi slick you can get in a road tyre. There was what you'd call a slight uproar about who should get access to them at what cost in drift comp circles as they were said to pretty much put anyone who wasn't using them at an unfair disadvantage.

Can't help you in any real world feedback but judging by what others have said it sounds like you'd be hard pressed to get a better performing tyre short of a semi slick, in the dry at least.

hit AJPS up for some AE86 flares

same size of wheel arch to a 31

hit Decs up maybe and see if he's got some spares (Garage 7)

      What accelerator cable can be used with greddy plenum

      By Duncan · Posted

      I was 99% sure the standard one is long enough to get there, you might just have to change the throttle orientation. If not, I remember someone having used an r31 cable instead, but that is probably harder to find than r33 by now...

      RB26DETT Sketchy boost mod?

      By ARB26 · Posted

      Or do we think it was installed to give 1 bar of boost max, all day, everyday?

      RB26DETT Sketchy boost mod?

      By ARB26 · Posted

      So could it be assumed it has been installed intentionally with potentially a power FC boost controller kit?

      What should I do next to hold the head on

      By Gareth87 · Posted

      Had my rig on Matt's dyno at PITS the other day. After a few years between tunes I added a few sensors and swapped intercoolers. Result. 553hp at 26psi. Not bad for an FJ20 that was built in 2007. The problem.. It filled the overflow bottle on hard runs which leads me to believe the head gasket isn't sealing. I have a coolant pressure sensor which was reading cap pressure at 22psi and occasionally overrunning to 23/24 psi on deceleration after a pull. It was not spiking. It has arp2000 head studs and a cometic gasket. As its been 18 years in service, I pulled the engine out and head off. Everything looks good but we obviously have an issue. Where I'm at.. Years ago I had the same issue, I checked the stud tension and they were all over the place. Some at 60 to 70 and some up near 90. I nipped them all to 100ft lbs and this stopped the water push until now. I believe this compromised the gasket back then. What do I do? 2 options are..  1) I bought arp 625+s, which I could put in with a new gasket. Thinking Kameari this time, reassemble and try again. 2) strip the block, get fire rings machined in with copper gasket and try that. I do not want to push it more than 28 to 30psi. I think the turbo will be out by then anyway. (G30-770). My other concern is the long term ability of a copper head gasket. Are they streetable for years? I feel like a new gasket with the new studs will probably suffice, but I don't know. Any thoughts welcome and advice on copper gaskets and fire rings. Thanks!
