Brother, nope, I've watched a "documentary" that proves otherwise

Not specifically the revamp Toyos.

In the past I've used Nitto NT01s, which were essentially the same compound as R888 with a different pattern (that's what the internetz said, so just be facts). I did like the NT01, progressive fade, didn't go from grip to 0 grip in a split second.

If you look at the serious street/track guys, most are either on Cup 2, A052, A050, AD09, CR-S or AR-1.

 

Go the CRS, cheaper than the A052 and same if not better 1 lap performance when suspension is dialled for it. If wanting to do back to back laps the A052 and can cool off and go again next lap will be the better option.
I have gone quicker over 1 lap with CRS than the A050 I came from but may be due to getting more seat time.

I am driving CRS on the street lately in different conditions and its going well, a lot better than AR1 in the wet.

MMM ok, 

I see a bit of praise for RE003s, but CR-S sounding like a better option, seems Nankang wants those to replace the AR-1

AR1 is a race tyre, CRS is a Hill Climb/time attack/Sprint tyre. 2 different things, a slick is on the way too.

The mighty gay mods choice of tyre is proper rubbish for those that actually drive on track not park at bunnings at night.

CR-S decent "budget" option, but still a grand+ for tyres. 

No idea what they're like in the wet though. 

probably around the $1700-1800 fitted in his sizes. 
The ar1 is heaps cheaper.

Get on scumplace I got some A052 295/35/18 for $400 that had done maybe 20-25 hot laps of SMP.

People are going faster on CRS than AR1, so there's that 😕

But to be fair, I think people have gone faster on Bob Jane All Rounders than AR1's; particularly if it's wet.

I managed to win under 2L turbo/4L NA class championship in our club with a single set of AR1s, including several wet rounds, and they were still getting faster end of the season 0_0

For $800 in 255/17 I was very pleased (7yrs ago so adjust for inflation)

Merry Clitmas you dirty cnuts.

24 hours ish in the sous vide at 50°C, then finished it off in the pizza oven at 500°C. Internal temp peaked about 56°C, albeit a bit higher than I wanted however still butter soft.

Don't ever let the mother in law out cook you at family events. 

Yes, that plate was bought in Ischia, Italy.

I still get shit from my wife for this photo because it is the happiest she has ever seen me. And it's not with her, it's in someone else's car. :D  Quang's EVO is sick, but that rotary wagon flying past was absolutely bonkers.

Hahah look at that smile 😂

Just like those ones on IG where they compare the husband in family photos vs husband going fishing lol.

I don't think I'll participate this time, clutch isn't in and also the last time I went there were too many numpties on the cruise sessions. Nearly caused a few accidents holding up people and a few guys initiating massive kerb to kerb drifts with heaps of cars right behind them. Not to mention, there were guys on the track session using it as a power cruise session.

    • Wife wanted basket things in the wardrobe in our temporary house. Thought about ripping our the wardrobe and fitting the entire IKEA set, but it's a temporary house and we want to move in a few years. So IKEA advertises this as a 50cm unit, however the actually basket and rails measure 46cm wide. Only issue was depth, IKEA stuff is quite deep, where as the builder special junk is super shallow at less than 40cm. Send it, chopped the rails, then offset the mounting holes, job done, happy wife, less shit scattered all over the bedroom. Did the same to the other side too. Also drove the Skyline shit box today, dropped off oil at Supercheap Auto. I didn't realise they only now take max 2x bottles per visit. I visited 2x Supercheap Autos.  
    • I've seen similar actually in my situation. You never know what tables are attempted to be used when the car thinks it's -99C or +200C. The fail state is not usually that extreme but you know what I mean - it was in my case though! This is where being able to read all the sensors is useful cause you see this stuff really quickly.
    • The above is very important. However as long as you keep timing relatively low, it's plausible to make your own knock ears and plausible to learn to tune with a modern ECU that can do wideband O2 correction like a boost controller. I mean if you only have one viable road to even drive the car on, learning to tinker to this level may be worth doing given you can't do much else with the car...?
    • I find the fact that the rear plate has to be bent inwards at the rear not so bad: but the front is just awful: It's like come on. (these are my very old, now retired/turned in plates) TBH it is a lot of money to fix a minor issue, the fact I said "I'll never really spend the money on doing this" is why people ended up buying them as a gift for a 'car guy' who can be hard to shop for.. for car guy things.
    • I just bent the ends of my premo plates. It even went through Regency like that after the engine conversion and the inspector (a great bloke!) just squinted his eyes and said "I didn't see that". Plates, and how they look, are just something that have zero importance to me.
