guys

i want to order some tyres for my 33 gtr. Running 18 x 10.5" rims so from what i've read/heard the best bet is michelin 27/65-18's. I've also been told to try to squeeze the 27/68-18's on/in but i think it's going to be too tight.

Anyone used either size on a 33 gtr?

they could be called a 280/60/18... where as the 27/65 is more like a 45 series.

getting them new is ok but for second hand, abit tricky as only 2 cars in gt and production sports use them. gt3 rsr gt car and the supra i used to work on in production sports.

I have some 2nd hand ones that I haven't had a chance to use yet.

Going to buy a new set for drive Bathurst

My other option is to buy some 285 re55's but the car is going to have 400awkw.

Which set of tyres will last longer? I would be getting the s9 Michelin

Also, European guys in Melbourne are charging 660 each for the slicks. Can anyone else import them?

    • @GTSBoy This method was able to get readings of -10 to -2, so it looks like its monitoring.  Now I need to figure out why the vacuum on the line provided isn't alternating with manifold pressure.  I went with 2 lines that an RB25 tuner recommended but I'll get a longer hose and try directly off the back of the manifold.  He may have been used to OEM intake setups while I have a DBW setup that removed the MAF and IACV.  
    • I work at a car detailing and tinting shop called Quark which gets all manner of German cars in usually (mainly due to a contract with Mercedes Benz Kita Osaka, BMW Nishinomiya and others) but every once in a while something special comes in, like a fully restored 1972 HS30 Nissan Fairlady 240ZG... The shop owner had immediately started applying film to the windows as soon as it was in the shop so the interior was completely covered in towels and plastic sheets. But I could get a few photos of the engine bay which was restored like new. Such an amazing car to see in pristine condition in Japan these days.  
    • Was going to say the car pulls up nicely everywhere, especially going into that last long right hander before the main straight. Looks like a lot of fun.
    • Hey Dave, welcome aboard! Good to see another soon-to-be Stagea owner here. The wagons are awesome — plenty of space, still got that Skyline DNA, and loads of potential if you’re into mods. Definitely post up pics when you get it, everyone here loves seeing new builds. What model/year are you looking at?
