I have also been looking at Hankooks, anyone tell me much about these?  Ive heard they're slightly better than Falkens (the reason i like Falken's is ive had them on my GTS for a year and still have people asking if they're brand new - and i drive it A LOT)

got a pair of hankooks for $325ish each.. 18x265x35.. they're alot better than the sumitomos i had before.. dunno how they compare to falkens tho

See Shane at Vic Park Tyre and Brake. Hes a good lad. He has a habit of cutting through the crap and telling you whats good and bad. Generally Falkens rate pretty highly in his books.

Ive had 3 sets of Falkens on 3 different cars, all good. But these Azenis ive got on my current 18's are starting to get a little loose despite only being 50 percent worn. A symptom my brother also seemed to get on the same set of tyres on his 180SX.

Better than Nankangs, Toyo's, Kuhmo's and most Dunlops any day of the week and thrice on Sundays tho!

Also never had a problem with most Yokohama's ive used.

Edit: Oh also had a set of Hankook Ventus Plus on my old SSS Pulsar... they had trouble keeping 100kw on the road, never mind 200! Useless.

    • Hey everyone. Is there a way I can get the original window sticker (maroney label) for my 1995 R33 GTST? I doubt I’ll be able to ever get it but it’s worth a shot to ask
    • Have a vb in honour of the car comming back
    • It was a great, but typical track day, and some VB was ingested at the night time debrief 🤪
    • And so, to round this out, I couldn't be happier to confirm @MBS206 has decided to buy the car. He drove down from sunny QLD with a trailer last week and it is off to its new home today. I'll let Matt confirm on next steps but I understand broadly that the plan is to leave it pretty much as is, and just get some quality wheel time with a nicely balanced car that is pretty much track ready. There are a few a jobs still to be done first but nothing too major and I think its a very smart buy Dinner last night at the Paragon with a round of VBs (mostly) for Neil
    • Well, 50 pages and the end of a chapter for this car. We took it out for a shakedown at Wakie yesterday, and everything went well. There were a couple of niggles: - Oil cooler fitting leak - tightened, cleaned, stopped leaking - Radiator cap overflow fitting was leaking....Mark called it, the overflow fitting was threaded in and not tight....tightened, tested and held pressure - Small oil leak at the rear of the block, probably the turbo oil feed - too hot to get at it comfortably but probably just needs to be nipped up - leak at the driver's side rear brake line where it meets the hardline. Fitting wasn't loose, so Matt backed it off and back on, no further leaks - there's also a leak somewhere on the top of the fuel tank, maybe that cross over fuel line - that was has been left to fix when its on a hoist Otherwise than those niggles the car went great, turned great and stopped great so it was a very successful day out. I'm always really nervous when a car first hits the track after a long break, especially with a brand new engine as well but it was great. VID-20251011-WA0007.mp4  Big thanks to @The Bogan who dropped by and helped out, @MBS206 and my nephew Lachlan the apprentice.  Neil's wife Mel also surprised the hell out of all of us by dropping by; she's up in Tamworth these days but was travelling to Melbourne so had plausible deniability for turning up at the garage, it was great to see her but also obviously a bit sad all round.
