Stretch lol, you get around the forum if I got it right :)

Rims are Advan RS-Ds 18X10 the tyres are 255/40 but have a set of Yokohama 265/35 AD08Rs ready to go on after I get the car back and use up the rubber on the car now :)

255/40s on an 18x10 rim :blink:

I too call you stretch

Stop mucking around and put those AD08rs on

haha, I thought the stretch was from a wasteland thread I was playing on :)

The tyres were on the car when I bought it and as the car has been living away from home most of the time I have not bothered. I want play a little bit when I run it in before I put the AD08Rs on.

I wanted 275/35 but they do not make a 275, just 265 then 285 ?

solution was simple.......should a got 285s :P

I know now :(

BJ said these 265s are the recommended size and I was not sure about the 285s but they do not last forever and if I like them, next time :)

what model you got mate?

R33's you can get away with fitting nice phat tyres but the R32's not so much

Yeah, gota call and could have got them for $220 as they got a lot in and trying to flog them :(

At first I was looking at going to 19x10.5 with the 285s but for whatever reason I changed my mind, cannot remember why, too much red maybe :)

When you are going through a learning curve with these cars it is not easy with anything you want to do, brakes and tyres are amongst the most confusing :/

But everything can become confusing and the more you read the worse it gets. In the end you have to make your mind up what you want from the car for yourself, then make the choice and hope it gets you what you want, it can be a costly choice if you get it wrong, lol

I totally understand what you mean. I've been there.

However you can only try to do what you think is right.

Sometimes you get it wrong but that's how you learn.

Talking to peeps in the business is sometimes the best thing instead of researching

After researching for ages I did speak to like mined blokes on SAU on just about everything I have done so far, then researched the info given. But they still have their preferences but a great guide to know what they have done has produced the type of results I wanted.

After I was sure what I had done to the car was not getting me the response I wanted I decided on the Nitto 3.2 stroker.

I kept everything from the earlier mods I did except the cams. I am sure I can get a lot more from the car but I do not need it :)

Probably went into over kill with the drive-train, but it all sounded soooooo GOOD :)

    • Resizing injectors in Nistune can be done a couple of ways, and there are a couple of ways that you can make a mess of it. The tuner needs to be really aware of the effects of whichever approach he uses (either K, or TIM). They are both easy enough to "get the injector size right" to run the engine. But little details like old start enrichment and hot start are affected differently, depending on which boxes you check.
    • Pretty safe to say almost everyone that has tuned their own car has experienced this issue. The difference being that we have our laptop in the car and when it happens, it's literally 10 seconds of tuning to sort it.  Would you be happy to plug in your laptop and sort this yourself? It is a very simple process and there is no risk of harming your engine (if you are worried about that). 
    • Yeah thats the next step now, either they wil or i will take out for a drive to work and go straight their after work and see is we get the same issues 🤞  thought i try my luck here too, never know someone else might have had the same issue but thanks for the reply 
    • Basically your tuner needs to drive it for the 30 min (or whatever) to create the same conditions then check the ECU settings and sensors at that time. They may not be excited to because that takes them 30 min rather than just opening the bonnet and seeing the problem straight away.... Hot start is generally not as tricky as cold start, but there would be a table for fuel enrichment vs coolant temp as a starting point
    • Yeah, they all cant say anything for sure as everything is working fine . Said unable to find an issue untill it stops again. Could mist likely be CAS wiring or IAS valve issue but again not 100%
