Has anyone tried the new nitto radials??? I was going to use a mickey thompson 255/50/16 but id rather use something smaller like a 235 or 245/45

If anyone knows of a good branded radial that can cop load it'd be great..

If anyone knows who sells them it'd also be great.

cheers

I can vouch for the Hoosiers as well as being a good choice. They were cheaper than the MT's @ the time i was buying.

On an airport surface I could still manage a 1.5 60ft with them @ 30psi in the 275/17

I dropped the pressure to 20psi and next run broke a diff so i can't comment on the 60ft there but it certainly hooked up hard haha :)

yea ill be running them at all 4... il see where to get those hoosiers from cause i think the MT's are a little taller and they will go real close to my dry sump near the wheel arch...

Ive got a 4WD TH400 so i dont think ill break a diff... if i can get out of the hole with a 1.3 60ft il be wrapped.. need to hit half track at over 140mph and come home

Na, getting it caged now and I spun a bearing when I tried to turn it up to 60 pounds so I gotta get Anthony to do rings and bearings and have another go at it.. Poor engine did over 8000km on over 1000 at the treads.... Was due to break something.... I was lucky it didn't throw rods!!!

I'm just saving slowly to get this shit done so I'm in no real hurry to get it on the track cause every day out at the track is a couple of grand.

      The final part arrived today to un-clampify and simplify the intake Who would have though a 1/2" hose stainless bulkhead fitting designed for below waterline bilge pumps would be what I needed Test fit on a 3" offcut I had laying around to see if it would work, and it worked a treat All going well the intake will be on its "final version" tomorrow

      Must have been an absolute nightmare to drive when the power steer was out, the rack ratio/wheel size/caster is all set up for power assistance

      R32 GTS (RB20DE) Injectors Replacement

      By GabsReDeal · Posted

      I checked the injectors again (1 and 2, since they’re easiest to access) to make sure they weren’t clogged. Even though the entire fuel system had been cleaned, I wanted to be certain. Everything looked clean, so I reinstalled and connected everything. When I started the car to confirm everything was okay, it immediately revved up high, so I shut it off straight away. I checked to see if I’d missed a vacuum hose or something, but everything was connected. On the second attempt, the car ran without the high idle, but I noticed a distinct “compressed air” sound coming from the engine bay. Tracing the sound, I pushed injector #6 forward slightly and the noise stopped — it turned out it wasn’t seated properly, despite the fuel rail being bolted down. While holding it in place, the car idled steadily without stalling and ran for over 5 minutes. At this point, I pulled all six injectors out just in case I hadn’t seated them correctly or dirt had gotten onto the O-rings. Unfortunately, I discovered that I had damaged 3 out of 6 injectors (the OEM 270cc ones) during installation. So yes, this was my fault. Since only the pintle caps were damaged, I’ve ordered a Fuel Injector Service Kit from NZEFI to refurbish them. In the meantime, I reinstalled my new injectors – the car now idles fine for over 15 minutes without stalling. I have not attempted to drive it so far. It’s not perfect yet, as it hesitates when the throttle is pressed, but it’s a big improvement. Unplugging the IACV with the new injectors idles at around 800rpm, even with the IACV screw tightened fully. But this is probably due to tune.
