Post edited to remove pointless dribble about nitto's as I failed to notice he is after ghey 19's

Joeyjoejoe: Yes starting to regret the 19's now... bought when car was essentially stock with no major plans for upgrading it... they look the bizz but makes finding tyres (especially affordable tyres) much harder... :blink:

I'm just shocked at how laggy the car is. 5000rpm to get to 18psi? Something is not right there.

Federal SS for all round performance, or KU36s for the dry.

Yes i thought something was wrong from looking at that sheet as well, but couldn't feel it on the road - I tested it on the road this morning - full boost well before 4500rpm so its just obviously either the ramp rate on the dyno or the way the operator put (or didn't put) his foot down!

Just goes to show that dyno charts need to be taken with a grain of salt...

been around for a while now... i run them every now and then in my drift car. with 310 rwkw and aggressive boost and torque curve it doesnt wheel spin in any gear in a straight line... pretty grippy tyre! they also work well from cold and dont require much heat to get them performing.

you cant be serious about the nankangs, they are good for a burnout and thats about it.

ime dead serious. they are great for what they are and the price, they perform good against better branded stuff. i work in a tyre shop and most people cant aford $400 $500 dollar tyres that do no klms.

there after a good alrounder. if it was a track car it would be different.

but ime not saying there good against some of the other stuff.

    • The final part arrived today to un-clampify and simplify the intake Who would have though a 1/2" hose stainless bulkhead fitting designed for below waterline bilge pumps would be what I needed Test fit on a 3" offcut I had laying around to see if it would work, and it worked a treat All going well the intake will be on its "final version" tomorrow 
    • Good luck on the weekend mate
    • Must have been an absolute nightmare to drive when the power steer was out, the rack ratio/wheel size/caster is all set up for power assistance
    • Welcome to SAU, what are you looking at buying?
    • I checked the injectors again (1 and 2, since they’re easiest to access) to make sure they weren’t clogged. Even though the entire fuel system had been cleaned, I wanted to be certain. Everything looked clean, so I reinstalled and connected everything. When I started the car to confirm everything was okay, it immediately revved up high, so I shut it off straight away. I checked to see if I’d missed a vacuum hose or something, but everything was connected. On the second attempt, the car ran without the high idle, but I noticed a distinct “compressed air” sound coming from the engine bay. Tracing the sound, I pushed injector #6 forward slightly and the noise stopped — it turned out it wasn’t seated properly, despite the fuel rail being bolted down. While holding it in place, the car idled steadily without stalling and ran for over 5 minutes. At this point, I pulled all six injectors out just in case I hadn’t seated them correctly or dirt had gotten onto the O-rings. Unfortunately, I discovered that I had damaged 3 out of 6 injectors (the OEM 270cc ones) during installation. So yes, this was my fault. Since only the pintle caps were damaged, I’ve ordered a Fuel Injector Service Kit from NZEFI to refurbish them. In the meantime, I reinstalled my new injectors – the car now idles fine for over 15 minutes without stalling. I have not attempted to drive it so far. It’s not perfect yet, as it hesitates when the throttle is pressed, but it’s a big improvement. Unplugging the IACV with the new injectors idles at around 800rpm, even with the IACV screw tightened fully. But this is probably due to tune.
