I use them for day to day use. Not a bad tyre for street duty at about 180rwkw. Never put them through their paces on the track though.

That said I will most likely be upgrading next time I am in the market to tyres to something a bit more track orientated.

Had them on my old r32 215/35/18 on fronts, and when they got old I put them on the rear and they were ALOT grippyer than brand new 235/35/18 Nankangs I usually had on rear. Not that Nankangs are much of a tyre, but I was very happy with the proxy 4 all the time, exept one delimitated on front due to 2.5 deg neg camber, and shop told me it's my fault for "shitty" camber so no refund. They lasted 10,000km on front

Had a pair of these on the front of the RX when I had it, with Potenzas on the rear. Saw some pretty hard street driving but no track work. Was very happy in what I paid/what I got. Didn't have any dramas but read alot of reviews saying hard work an time (year or so) caused trouble. Eggs, poor response etc...

    • R34DE as in R34 with an RB25DE? So did you get this? Or you planning to?  I'm not really sure what you're saying. 
    • Possibly avoid using a Cometic one unless the deck/head surface are perfectly flat. I did have a look just then and forgiving gaskets such as Tomei or Nitto don't exist for the FJ20, however the Bar-Tek or Kameari ones look good and might do the trick.
    • Because pipe threads for pipe things. M threads for bolt things. Throw some teflon sealant onto it and dust your hands off knowing you did the right thing, instead of going twice around the block to achieve a result using the wrong things. Of course, all of these solutions are ignoring the fact that the minimum thread pitch we're talking about here is 1.25mm, with the 1/4" in NPT or BPS being out around 1.4mm. You will need to know that the boss you're tapping has enough thickness for at least a few threads. That's one of the reasons that 1/8" is commonly used - because the pitch is <1mm. And why would you look to use 1/4" NPT in a BSP country anyway? Ugh.
    • Just throwing around ideas, does it need to be in the compressor cover? Why not the hot side piping?
    • 1/8NPT drill size = 8.7mm. Since the hole got messed up by me, it’s probably around 9mm.    So 1/4” NPT would be next step. A drill size of around 11mm would be preferred there which is not way of my M12 (drill 10.5mm and tap M12 threads)
