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 :)

    • The fancy pants red shock tower brace is finally incoming from MX5 Mania, getting it shipped from 'Merica has been a long and problematic process, and GWR, the 'Merican supplier will not ship directly to consumers outside of the US, Mania basically had to order a heap of them, the colour choice was silver, or red, and we all know anything red adds 5 killerwasps of dynotorques..... Whilst it does fit over a 2.5, and I've seen a few photos and videos of it being installed and fitting, google also says it might get real close to the FAB9 intake front runner, people in the US says it does fit with the FAB9 intake, except for one person who said it slightly touched.......so there is that.....LOL..... As it seems that I am the first in AU to have this combination of parts there's no local knowledge about fitment, so I'm just a willing guinea pig in this endeavour, I'll cross my fingers and toes and hope for the best In other news, I ordered stuff from China  on the same day I ordered the 23° silicone bend from Victoria, the stuff from China arrived a day ago, the 23° silicone bend is still travelling around Australia thanks to Australia Post, and "may" be here next week
    • Very good news...I contacted Racebox about it last night. My car is a 2016 so remains to be seen if it is compatible, requires a TCU swap, or is impossible.
    • What ECU are you running? This is probably the biggest question. If it's a PowerFC, I'd probably change the ECU and get something newer that will handle the injectors in a nicer way.
    • FYI: Racebox RE7R Custom Tunes Released!   https://goracebox.com/.../2017-infiniti-q50-q60-re7r-tcm...   FOR GEN 2 (21+) VEHICLES, PLEASE SEE NOTE AT BOTTOM See more   But whomever tuned your car is the tuner you should go back to, AMS, Sonictune or BT Tune....
