That's a good point, when road is just wet its true it's more so when it' soaked with a few mm of sitting water even shitty tyres with channels to get rid of the water makes me feel a little better instead of a flat bald tyre aquaplaning

1 dif is that i only ever ran 235's aswell

Used to do it to uni everyday

Skipping all the traffic made me so happy

Wearing boots all day not so

Yeah well I'd probably have to leave my work shoes at work.. annoyingly ride with shirt and slacks underneath gear

Always get WTF looks when de-panting at my desk

Makes you wonder how often shit like this is happening all around Melbourne

I'm guessing a lot

More than you would like to think.

Thank christ we ( not me, NAB ) sold all our Greek assets when this all started!

Whoever we sold them to probably doesn't think they are so clever now lol.

The whole Greek attitude to this situation is laughable.

Apparently it's the banks fault not theirs, not the government, The bloated pensions, tax optional welfare state had nothing to do with it.

Why? (srs question)

Longevity?

The NT05's are just touching the indicators in the center now, on the sides there's maaarginally more, but barely enough to catch a fingernail on.

Where else to go for alignment duties? TT always been nice to me, but heard a few things now...

Longevity is definitely a big player here, AD08s you can supposedly get 30,000km out of a set which is fantastic for what type of tyre they are.

But in my opinion I think the AD08s are better tyres due to the sidewall. They're much stiffer than the RS3s so they're a bit more predictable when it comes to breaking traction. Where as to drive RS3s fast you have to be on their limit which is a lot more "wallowy" than the AD08s, if that's the right word. To boot they seem to have more grip as well.

interesting.

this is a good thing for me as a bit more side wall flex is a good thing.

running max camber a bit more give gives more grip.

same as softening off my front sway bar gained me 1.5 seconds at winton.

    • Its also worth mentioning that 30 years after it left the factory and god knows how many missed oil changes since, there is every possibility that one or more lifters are ticking because they are sticky/gummed up. To resolve that you need to pull the cams then pull each lifter, disassemble, clean, reassemble, soak in oil and re-install, and they should come up good as new.
    • What air filter are you running? Is it a panel filter in the stock air box, or a pod filter? Is the air filter the type that is oiled?   If you unplug the IACV, what rpm does the engine idle at?
    • Reading through the engine service manual their advice is do a cylinder balance test. Unplug one injector at a time and see if the idle drops a consistent RPM. You can also do this using a Consult cable which is easier. They also call for unplugging the power transistor, then with the engine off and the fuel rail unhooked from the manifold verifying that you have good fuel flow (even injection, no dripping/leaks, etc) when you twist the CAS by hand. Also verify the spark by pulling the spark plugs and allowing the plugs to ground and turning the CAS by hand. I would also start doing the sensor checks and idle valve checks in service manual. Make sure the MAF tests reasonably, the intake air regulator is sane, etc. You may have to get new spark plugs.
    • This sounds very old of me, however since buying the Tiguan shit box, my view on shit boxes have changed.
    • I've looked up the parts number (41011AL501). It's around $700 OEM. Usually our Infiniti G35 here in Canada have interchangeable parts with my Stagea but the parts number are not the same. I have looked around and it seems the JDM 2005 V35 Skyline (which is the same as our G35) has the same caliper but I cannot confirm. And I can't find a repair kit. The inner brake pads drags on the rotor, seems to be rusty piston. Thanks for the info by the way
