Those new Yoki's are pretty spesh huh, I'm running the same size compound on mine now and I cannot wait to see if I can beat my 03G time :)

At Oran and Eastern Creek, 50's in M's are a second quicker - be prepared there a bit soggy compared to 285 Dz03's, Yoki's were a bit quicker, but easier on the bankcard! Soft compound seems great on R32 with less grunt, they get over it too quick on R33 - M's are the go for me.

Must say havent tried em in the wet yet, so will probably put the dunlops back on for that occasion, although on behaviour, I do have high expectations of the Yoki's with 50% plus tread in wet.

Nice PI time. How to you rate the 050's against the RE55's?

It's a little hard to tell as first time on PI but seemed to be quiet good, the wear was comparable to the re55's and didn't seem to suffer what I experienced with the R888's in tread block squirm. They do seem to have some tread block movement due to the design but it seems to be only minor that shows in the wear on the tyre when you are looking at them and not through the wheels.

The FR is nearly dead but apparently that is expected at PI and suffered from getting a bit too much pressure too quickly and I didn't bleed it off quick enough so wear in the centre of the tyre is higher.

Felt fast, stable at higher speeds and came on quiet a lot quicker then what I would experience with the RE55's. I didn't expect this and found myself getting stuck into it earlier and earlier then what I would normally.

Probably the best tyre I have tried but would like to see the results on a home track before singing its praises.

Thanks for that. RE55's are getting very hard to get at the moment. May try the 050's next to see how they compare.

    • just an update to this, poor man pays twice  Tried sanding down the pulleys but it didnt do the trick. Chucked another second hand alternator in the na car which I got for free off my mate and its fixed the squelling. Must have been unlucky with the bearings.    As for my turbo car, I managed to pick up a cwc rb alternator conversion bracket + LS alternator for 250 off marketplace, looked to be in really good nick. Installed it , started the car and its not charging the battery.... ( Im not good with auto elec stuff so im not sure if this was all I needed to do but I verified such by using a multimeter on the battery when the engine was running and I was only getting 12.2v )   I had to modify the earth strap for the new LS alternator , factory earth strap was a 10mm bolt which did not fit the bolt on the LS alternator which was double the size so I cut it off , went to repco bought some ring terminals that fit, crimped it onto the old earth strap and bolted it up to the alternator , started the car and same issue. Ran like shit and was reading 12.2 at the battery.  For a "plug and play" advertised kit thats not very plug and play but alas.  My question is , am I missing something ? Ive been reading that some people recommend upgrading the stock 80 amp alternator fuse to a 140 amp but I dont see how that would stop the alternator charging especially at idle not under load.  Regardless ive pulled it out and am going to get it bench tested by an auto elec tomorrow but it would be handy to know if ive missed something silly or have done something wrong.   
    • My wild guess is that you have popped off an intake pipe....check all of the hoses between the turbo and the throttle for splits or loose clamps.
    • Awesome, thanks for sharing!
    • To provide more specific help, more information is needed. What Android screen? What is its wiring diagram? Does the car's wiring have power at any required BAT and ACC wires, and is the loom's earth good?
    • So, now all you need to do is connect the 2 or 3x 12v feeds into the unit to permanent 12v, ACC 12V and IGN 12V that you can find in the spot behind the stereo, and the earth, and then it will switch on with the car.
