10.5-11, not the best idea for a 32 mate :(

Would grip awesome though, mine has the Z221s in 265/35/18 to give you an idea from your ride at SMSP

damn didnt realilse u were running z22, car was on rails thru the corners, i was being ambitious with the size on offer :-)

Yeah those Z221s are awesome and the A050s are suppose to be even better, these should fit ok under a 33-34 GTR with the right offset wheel, but I wouldn't like to put them on the front of an unmodified 32 GTR :(

Nesh, 265/35/18s would be plenty enough for your car :thumbsup:

I see you got down to a 1.07.39, nice

I'm running 285/35 on my 18x10.5+18 and i struggled to full lock to the left as the driver side tyre was rubbing the splash guard and made a horrible noise when i full locked, so DIY'd and cut a small square where it was rubbing, just putting it out there incase there were people out there with same or similar specs to my wheels who wanted to purchase this so they're aware of a potential issue =]

  • Like 1

gentlemen i had them on my r32 gtr on 18x10.5 +15 with 2deg camber on front with rolled guards

wongy you will never need full lock on the race track full lock will only be used when reversing or parking

i have done a 60.9 around wakefeild park wuth the AO50's i personally prefer the z221's but both are awesome

but cant use z221's for wtac

yea, i understand that, but incase someone has a street/track car like me, lol, i don't track mine all the time, but when i don't, i enjoy a drive here and there and it requires me to full lock when parking, and it started making noises abit before full lock, so i'd imagine 295 to start making noise much earlier than full lock, just a warning thats all :)

I can't comment on the A050s but the Z221s are street legal, they have the DOT rating and wear indicators

That is the Z222 RS3 tyre, the Z221 says Competition use only...

Mine say "not recommended for street use" but still have the DOT approval :/

Either way they are not a tyre that you would want to use on the street! They are the best tyre i have driven on in terms of grip, with the 295/30 size they would offer amazing grip!

Possible offer coming soon :whistling:

    • You are selling this? I have never bought something from marketplace...i dont know if i trust that enough. And the price is little bit "too" good...

    • It would be well worth deciding where you want to go and what you care about. Reliability of everything in a 34 drops MASSIVELY above the 300kw mark. Keeping everything going great at beyond that value will cost ten times the $. Clutches become shit, gearboxes (and engines/bottom ends) become consumable, traction becomes crap. The good news is looking legalish/actually being legal is slighly under the 300kw mark. I would make the assumption you want to ditch the stock plenum too and want to go a front facing unit of some description due to the cross flow. Do the bends on a return flow hurt? Not really. A couple of bends do make a difference but not nearly as much in a forced induction situation. Add 1psi of boost to overcome it. Nobody has ever gone and done a track session monitoring IAT then done a different session on a different intercooler and monitored IAT to see the difference here. All of the benefits here are likely in the "My engine is a forged consumable that I drive once a year because it needs a rebuild every year which takes 9 months of the year to complete" territory. It would be well worth deciding where you want to go and what you care about with this car.
    • By "reverse flow", do you mean "return flow"? Being the IC having a return pipe back behind the bumper reo, or similar? If so... I am currently making ~250 rwkW on a Neo at ~17-18 psi. With a return flow. There's nothing to indicate that it is costing me a lot of power at this level, and I would be surprised if I could not push it harder. True, I have not measured pressure drop across it or IAT changes, but the car does not seem upset about it in any way. I won't be bothering to look into it unless it starts giving trouble or doesn't respond to boost increases when I next put it on the dyno. FWIW, it was tuned with the boost controller off, so achieving ~15-16 psi on the wastegate spring alone, and it is noticeably quicker with the boost controller on and yielding a couple of extra pounds. Hence why I think it is doing OK. So, no, I would not arbitrarily say that return flows are restrictive. Yes, they are certainly restrictive if you're aiming for higher power levels. But I also think that the happy place for a street car is <300 rwkW anyway, so I'm not going to be aiming for power levels that would require me to change the inlet pipework. My car looks very stock, even though everything is different. The turbo and inlet pipes all look stock and run in the stock locations, The airbox looks stock (apart from the inlet being opened up). The turbo looks stock, because it's in the stock location, is the stock housings and can't really be seen anyway. It makes enough power to be good to drive, but won't raise eyebrows if I ever f**k up enough for the cops to lift the bonnet.
    • There is a guy who said he can weld me piping without having to cut chassis, maybe I do that ? Or do I just go reverse flow but isn’t reverse flow very limited once again?
