Found myself looking at new tires, do they seriously expect me to pay $375 per tire for Michelin Sport 3's?

On a related rant does anyone know the best place to get cheap tires in Canberra?

NTW (Mick) for Federals :D

He's SAU

In FYshwick

I think it stands for National Tyre Warehouse ?

Extreme good price

Thanks for the tip :0 Did you mean Nationa Tyre Whole Salers, they have a place if Fyshwick. Now I've got to pick between the 595 or the 595EVO :D

595 RSR

ill be shoving 595 rsrs on mine when i have some money... Thats a big when. I finish my job next month so will have to wait and see what happens..........

What would I do with RSRs? I would kill myself the moment it rained :P

Whats the wear rate like? I would have thought that a semi slick would last about a week on the road.

Im yet to run them properly. Someone will know... Considering how widely they are used id say its pretty good.

Ring the number, ask for mick, let him know your an SAU'er

Address: 14 Yallourn St, Fyshwick, ACT 2609

Canberra, South Canberra

Tel: 02 62806800

RSR's work fine in the wet and do last a reasonable time.

The tyre wear on these depends on your driving and distance.

Had them on the Toyo Taxi for well over a year now

apparently i might have my GTR back tonight... It's literally about to go on the dyno... SO keen!!! BECAUSE NO MORE WORK NEEDS DOING. Until something breaks. CRY.

I hate hearing them on the Dyno - they scream

I always stress about what is happening to my car :/ like getting it back and they say, Rev limiter is really high, (Insert name) managed to get it up to 8500RPM :verymad:

Also thanks for the tips about tires, will definetly get some next pay :)

    • So, this shouldn't be such a mission, but there were a few tricks so I thought I'd post up a DIY for it. This was on a Q50 Red Sport but I doubt any other V37 model is very different (maybe just less steps for the intake heat exchanger hoses) I pulled the radiator out to flush it because the car was running hot at the track, but obviously the same steps apply for changing a radiator for any reason including an upgrade. If you are removing the radiator, you of course need to drain and refill, so have 5+ litres of blue coolant ready. You don't need to drain the intake heat exchanger to remove the radiator but depending on your plans you may need a couple of litres for that as well. You will also need something to deal with the auto transmission lines, I used 2x 8mm rubber caps on the radiator side, and a short length of 8mm pipe on the car side.....unless you can block these lines quickly you will loose AT fluid and it may be enough to hurt the transmission if you don't refill it. Other than that....lets go... "First, jack up your car". Yes really, and put it safely on stands. If you are not confident doing that you need to give this job to a mechanic
    • If the forester is anything like our old 2007 GTB Liberty, I could near on run ling Long's and "rate them", as no matter what, it just hung to the road, even when abusing it in a hard launch in the wet, or throwing it at corners.
    • LOL, all of the CAI like Craig I just need to put a hole saw through my bumper Done and dusted, the car runs, which is nice, I'll take it for a spin when the weather clears up Just need to put the bumper back on for good
    • Brooooo Please send ABS control unit schematic Please! R33 gts25t ABS (Its two plug ecu, black and white) wire colors possible? [email protected]
    • Don't even try to run it on the stock ECU if you're going to have the boost controller bring boost above ~10 psi. I've already told you that. If you use the Nistune ECU, you will need to CAREFULLY read the available documentation for Neo tuning, and read some threads on the Nistune forums, to discover the various things you have to do to prevent the ECU from going bananas when the boost is too high. The is a table associated with th boost sensor that must be modified to prevent it from shitting the bed. This is just one of the things that you will need to do to the tune in Nistune, because the Neo turbo ECU will be expecting to see a number of things (such as the TCS) that are not there, and you have to block the DTCs on those. It is totally not surprising to me that you are having the problems that you are, but the solutions to these problems have been known for >15 years. So just get it done.
