I still think the Federalies look OK for the money...... BUT you dont do many KM's so the Nitto may be ok too, but you dont want to leave them sitting for too long in storage and go all hard and waste the money.......

My KU36 are crap now due to sitting for 2 years!

Well done mate! You got the one you wanted i assume? (Didnt you have 2 lined up?)

Make sure their security is top notch! (I am sure you are all over that already!) :)

Ant you've had your car for a year and haven't don't 10k on them, get the good ones man. You only drive it for fun.

My Feds are great when there hot but before that there not bad but not heaps good either

ha cheers for the import guys..

i just looked again and pretty much decided to go with the nittos haha... im hopeless.

the nt05 isnt a full track tyre.. the nt05R is the proper semi slick, with the r type compound etc..

the tread wear differences of the two tyres are 200 nt05 and 240 for the federals..

so the nittos would just be a really grippy street tyre, and would still get 10k kms on them i think.. not like the proper semis where i would burn up the rubber on the steet within 2k kms..

so im kinda thinking i should just buy the gripper tyre for more fun on the street?... where the federals will probably just be the same as the falkens i have.. maybe even a little worse?...

i am running NItto invos and they are awesome i ran them down wakie in march and they were really good

Just got back from trying to put my car in storage, massive fail.

The one I had on hold, was taken down as the wrong one (needed on right next to a power point for trickle charging etc) so went in there and now it's gone, and none available next to power etc... Not happy!

Why's it going in storage

Need it lowered, got a bad driveway and live in a unit with a pretty small double garage with 3 cars... Ha

Just want it in storage unit I buy a house etc.. And I'm sick of waiting to lower it, hopefuly they sort it quickly and get me in there.

Might call them up on Monday and tell them to get the person that got the one I thought I had my name down for, to shift to another one!

yeah i'm only joking lol.

See if you can get a nice series 3 r33 or even a LM. I've alway liked them :-). But on series note, take your time to find decent one.

    • Thank you GTSBoy and MBS206 I have done the compression test with the motor out of the vehicle, reason for the test was to see if I needed to remove the head and do rings etc while its out. I'm in the process of respraying the vehicle and tidying up a few things. Story behind it all is I've just purchased the skyline and it was running when I got it, never drove it on the street though as I wanted to pull it down and do it all up again before registering it. the gentleman I purchased it from told me the motor has a forged bottom end and has a decent tune through it but I was going to pull the sump off anyway to see if it is a forged bottom end. that's why I thought id do a compression test beforehand. 
    • Man, I'm kind of amazed that the price of the turbo has not changed in 7 years. Everything else is inflating beyond reason, but not this? Good on Tao / hypergear I guess? Anyways, good luck with the sale!
    • I'm selling my brand new, in the box, never used Hypergear ATR45 - and I had some additions I paid for a few yrs back when I purchased it. Never ended up having the rest of the money to add all the mods at once, so I just ended up slowly selling each part. I originally had it internally gated, with the dump pipe, however I found it was incompatible with what I was going to use it for, so I contacted (I think Ken) from Hypergear, and he and I messaged back and forth & he got me to ship the turbo back, where they modified it & made it externally gated, and gave me the 5 bolt dump pipe attachment for custom welding. (Photos below) This turbo like I said has never touched the inside of an engine bay, it's completely brand new, never used, been sitting in the same box it arrived in, covered in plastic & all. Below are the photos of it: And while the guys at Hypergear were making it in-shop, they sent me some photos of the process: I'm looking at selling this just because I'm in need of the money right now, and don't have plans on modifying the 34 anytime soon - and from reviews & peformance sheets, this turbo had amazing results back when I was researching. The turbo was purchased in 2018 for $1.9k, with the mods I got added on. Looking at the website now, for the same turbo they sell (ATR45SAT), with the current addons it adds up to $1830 for the turbo Current addons included: - Bolted dump adaptor - Ball bearing CHRA - Braided oil feeding line So I'm looking to possibly sell it for around $1800, with shipping included in that 1.8k, It cost me around $120 to ship - so yeah thought I'd throw it out there and see if anyone was interested in purchasing. Cheers!
