Sooooo. Turns out the customs delay was caused by Tirerack not sending the right paperwork. Once this came through and after a fee for duty and an $89 quarantine inspection fee I had my new tyres in my hot little hands!

Overall, still shitloads cheaper than buying here and the tyre guys that fitted my new semis to my TE37s looked suitably in awe when we turned up there today.

This is a very welcome sight in my lounge and will be even more welcome on the GTR when she comes home soon:

Over all, experience with Tirerack was awesome!

yeah same thing I had, tirerack didn't include the Quarantine Paperwork, next time I'll get them to email it to me and follow up from this end just to be sure customs gets it.

+2 for what tyres are they and let us know how they perform ? thats some serious contact on the outside block.

just put Michelin Pilot PS2 on my GTR, excellent grip dry and wet, little bit noisier than the Dunlop P600 that came off but I would expect the Michelins to last longer.

for anyone looking at a good tyre, I went for a spin in a mates new M3 and could not believe the grip, under braking, cornering and accelerating , in didn't step out or even give a hint of a squeal, and we were putting them to the test---------Pirelli PZero's, I'm very happy with the Michelins, but after that drive I'll be trying the Pirelli's next.

We're glad our service worked well for you but regret our paperwork mistake caused a delay and extra work for you.

We will review our procedures to avoid this error in the future.

Welcome on the forum. I must add I've got nothing but excellent service from Tire Rack and the price is great (even during the "normal" exchange rates). But yea, its a bit unfortunate Kat got hit by that quarantine. Mine went through without any hassle.

Yoko AD08s impressed me after a weekend on the skidpan

VERY good in the wet, car slid - thats gonna happen with 370rwkw, but it was predictable and didn't break traction as soon as i expected :D

if you like the AD08s try some dunlop Z1 star spec's next time. cheaper and better. I have AD08s on my grey 32 with the 2.7/motec etc and AD07s on the other 32 and the Z1s on the evo and having now driven on all of them extensively I reckon the Z1 are a touch better for a weekend car/occasional track car. very cheap from our friends at tirerack too. :)

Be even bigger fans if they stocked Bridgestone Re55's. :yes:

agreed!! :) please add RE55 to stock list. or dunlop direzza 03G. both very popular circuit tyres here in aus. they will definitely sell.

    • You'lll likely have to make do with R33 GTR for engine/tranny stuff, and Stagea for the body. I don't know that there's even been an actual diagram seen in the wild.
    • Haha, i kow right? Could have bought so many cars for the same amount of money (or less) but driving Unicorn gives you at least +1mln to style 😅. Like wise man said "life's to short to drink cheap wine and drive boring cars" 😉
    • Newbie here, proud owner of an Autech 260RS. I'm on the hunt for wiring diagrams specific to the 260RS, particularly S1. I've ran my eyes through R33, R34 Diagrams, there are some similarities, however continue to find incorrect wire colours and pins on connectors in the 33,34 diagrams.   I was hoping someone could point me in the right direction? I'd be happy to pay for the originals in Japanese. I can translate them, at least they would be accurate.   Any help please would be greatly appreciated, never heard an RB26DETT before let alone driven one, and I've got a spaghetti monster of goodness to sort out.   Cheers Benny  
    • Hey all  im wondering if you can help me please I have put a rb20 box in my r34 gtt as my auto packed up and a friend had a spare box I know it’s not ideal but it will get me up and running for now. we have done the conversation and everything is working great but my Speedo we got a s13 speed sensor but my Speedo reads double now and I bought a speed converter but still not having any luck.  so I thought I’ll reach out and pick your brains  any help would be appreciated please as I wanna drive my car again
