Anyone know a good place to buy some Michelin (265)/(275)/35/18. Under $650 for a pair or AD08 or something close excluding federals as theyre a nightmare in the rain.

I got a good price online from Ozzy tyres for my Michelin Pilot Supersports and so far I think they're a fantastic tyre.

A 265/35/18 was around $1600 for 4 including sending to Canberra. Wasn't much difference in their price compared to tire rack after you factor shipping, customs and quarantine fees etc.

"How much were they for the set, if you don't mind me asking?"

I did some hunting around in the end Bob Jane at Fyshwick were the best at $1340 all up, as I said I'm very happy with them.

You have the RSR yeah Richard?

I'm running just the standard 595's and I think my camber probably pays a good part in shit traction.

Best thing about them though is that they hold well in the dry and they have lasted me for nearly 2 years!

Im running the RSR dan and i can't fault them. Even in the wet.

Okay folks.

It is going to be an absolute nightmare financially and physically to get the 34 registered in Victoria so I think I am just going to sell it real cheap to someone in the ACT if they want it. We only really need one car here in Melbourne anyway. What do GTT's go for these days?

I do like having fresh breth though.

The issue with rego was that i just wanted it in Vic rego so it would be easier to sell.

I was initially told that if it was an interstate car with current rego i don't need an inspection, i just need an appointment to hand in plates and they would honour my rego. Today i find out that because it was an import never registerd in vic they dont have my compliance plate on record so it will need to be a full rego inspection and ID check, which i would fail because i am in no position to spend money putting my car back to stock just to get it into another state just to make selling it easier.

I will just leave it in ACT rego and sell it cheap enough to sell it quick but still not make a massive loss.

I barely drive it here in melbourne so it's just dead money really...still...it will be sad.

Also selling mine Andy ( can't plug it enuff :P)

Do a search on carsales anywhere from $7k to a very hopefull $25k

Mine sits squarely in the middle ground (also known as the kill zone !)

    • It says 300ZX, does that make it an Aus delivered car? Funny how back in the day I just couldn't care less about Z32's and these days I am just in love with them. Back when Nissan was into pushing the envelope. 🤣
    • Hi guys, just after some guidance with an R34 sunroof that has stopped working correctly. It still opens and closes perfectly fine, but it no longer tilts/vents up or down. As a result, the rear of the glass now sags a bit as it drops down slightly in order to retract into the roof, but now it can't pop upwards into a flush position. I’ve probed the pins on the back of the switch connector with a multimeter and it seems like both switches (for open/close and tilt/vent) still work correctly. Any ideas on what it could be, or where I should even start in terms of diagnosing? I'm sure someone's had this issue before but I haven't been able to find anything online relating to this specific issue, most of the issues are with the seals leaking or the motor failing entirely. Thanks in advance!
    • Do you have some data like fuel pressure? It's really hard to say if you're still fighting a fuel system issue at this point. Could be something weird like the FPCM dipping out.
    • Yeah in that case, pulling the dent out. Event a very slight dent can create a lot of work filler-wise and there is a strong chance the panel won't be the factory shape when you are done (as the dent will result in a new high point created somewhere, then everything is brought up to that new high point... but the panel shouldn't be that high if that makes sense).  So you've filled and primed the panel and it is flat, why would you go back and remove the primer and add more filler? 
    • Something else I have been faffing with while the car was off the road is making the AC work. Assuming the car isn't at a thermal limit the idea of having AC while waiting in line to go on track sounds delightful. I have actually been lugging around the weight of the entire system since 2018 when the RB25NEO went in without it working at all.  The main reason was in the first few events before I got around to re-gassing it the rubber hose that runs under the manifold had the factory heat wrap/sleeve fail resulting in this: ~2 years ago I purchased a complete used R32 AC line set but when I finally went to install it the line i needed was different where the expansion section is I found a local place that was able to replace the rubber section and re-crimp. They also added some modern heat sleeve to the hose Tight fit but fingers crossed this is the last physical piece of the puzzle needed
