Depends on what you want to spend really

Yokohama AVS V102

Goodyear Revspec

Dunlop FM901's (cheaper.)

Talk to Kosteras tyres in Kalamunda for advice.

They can supply tyres just this side of race rubber if you want to go down that path

Cheers

this is what i'm looking at getting.

712-11.jpg

Kumho "Ecsta Supra" 712: Racetrack inspired, race-winning technology all wrapped up into a high performance street tyre. Race proven technology inspired the development of the Kumho ECSTA supra712 V and Z speed rated directional tyre. Designed to deliver a higher level of high speed performance in hydroplaning resistance and wet handling, the tread’s large lateral and centre channels provide maximum water evacuation for superior wet traction while an advanced silica tread compounding ensures excellent wet/ dry traction and handling. To further meet the demands of those drivers who require the best in handling and traction, the ECSTA Supra 712’s wide tread contact area provides dry grip, stability at high speeds and handling. Its sophisticated, directional tread design offers superior acceleration, braking (especially when rabbits happen to be in your road) and exceptional cornering. Altogether with its European design and styling, the ECSTA Supra 712 delivers ultra high performance, featuring black letter styling and available in 55-,50-,45-,40-, 35-, and 30 series, in H-, V-, Z-, and W speed rated sizes for 14 inch to 20 inch wheel diameters. Now world class beating quality with best value pricing will make sure your customers will know.

hahahahahahahahha

sorry troy but dont get them

theyre pathetic

my mate has them in his 300zx, after 12,000ks of not very syko driving theyre incredibly bald, offer no grip and are weapons in the wet

bloody pathetic!

as an all round tyre the dunlop fm901s are very good, thats what im using at the moment. the sticker the tyre the quiker it will wear, like the SO3s... depends what youre after. an allround tyre or just one which will get you off the line. pirellis range are also good, but expensive. p-zeros have excellent grip!

Spoke to Ray @ Kostera's and will probably settle on a set of Dunlop SP9000's @ 225/55 on the rear. Only because I've got stock rims and havent got the dough to get a set of 18x9's yet and fit some nice 255/45 tyres :) Cluth and tyres should be done in time for drags on wednesday 13th of november. Whose coming along?

Guys, going to have to do a shameless plug for the boys at beaurepairs in Rocky - they gave me a great deal on the REVSPECs: 2 x 234/45/17 and 2x 255/40/17 fitted for 1k.  Saved several hundred on the list price.

Who did you sleep with to get that price?

Best price I could get was $1320 from Beaurepaires in Perth area.

    • I would just put EBC back on the "I would not use their stuff" pile and move on.
    • Can I suggest you try EBC directly again and link them to as many competitor catalogues as you can to show their listing is incorrect, eg https://dba.com.au/product/front-4000-series-hd-brake-rotor-dba42304/ If you have access to an R33 GTST VIN and your VIN, you could also use a Nissan Parts lookup like Amayama to show them the part number is different between 33 GTST and 34 GTT which may get their attention
    • So i got reply from EBC and they just this site where you can clearly see those 296mm fronts on R34 GTT. I send them photos and "quotes" that 296mm are not for 34 GTT and they are too small. But it will be very hard to return them cuz nobody here knows 100% and they just copy those EBC catalogue :-D https://ebcbrakesdirect.com/automotive/nissan/skyline-r34
    • Hi, is the HKS  Tower Bar still available ? negotiable ? 🤔
    • From there, it is really just test and assemble. Plug the adapter cables from the unit into the back of the screen, then the other side to the car harness. Don't forget all the other plugs too! Run the cables behind the unit and screw it back into place (4 screws) and you should now have 3 cables to run from the top screen to the android unit. I ran them along the DS of the other AV units in the gap between their backets and the console, and used some corrugated tubing on the sharp edges of the bracket so the wires were safe. Plug the centre console and lower screen in temporarily and turn the car to ACC, the AV should fire up as normal. Hold the back button for 3 sec and Android should appear on the top screen. You need to set the input to Aux for audio (more on that later). I put the unit under the AC duct in the centre console, with the wifi antenna on top of the AC duct near the shifter, the bluetooth antenna on the AC duct under the centre console The GPS unit on top of the DS to AC duct; they all seem to work OK there are are out of the way. Neat cable routing is a pain. For the drive recorder I mounted it near the rear view mirror and run the cable in the headlining, across the a pillar and then down the inside of the a pillar seal to the DS lower dash. From there it goes across and to one USB input for the unit. The second USB input is attached to the ECUtec OBD dongle and the 3rd goes to the USB bulkhead connected I added in the centre console. This is how the centre console looks "tidied" up Note I didn't install the provided speaker, didn't use the 2.5mm IPod in line or the piggyback loom for the Ipod or change any DIP switches; they seem to only be required if you need to use the Ipod input rather than the AUX input. That's it, install done, I'll follow up with a separate post on how the unit works, but in summary it retains all factory functions and inputs (so I still use my phone to the car for calls), reverse still works like factory etc.
