Since i'm back in singapore, i decided to go 'performance' shopping and i came across this big tire warehouse where they stock like heaps of YOKOHAMA ADVAN AD07 tires. The price for it was fair enuff... AUD$338 for back 18" 265/35 each and AUD$275 for front 18" 235/40 each. I m really interested in purchasing these tires but i have a problem. AM I ABLE TO BRING THEM BACK INTO AUSTRALIA? Are there any law might prevent me from bringing it back? Does anyone know?????pleaseeeeeeee help.... thkssssssssssssss :)

oooo are these good tyres? I've got these on my car, they're not like R-spec tyres are they?

umm.... bringing them back....i'd imagine you'd just have to box em up and send them back seperately, but in terms of legalities i'm sure it's fine as it doesn't look like you can buy them here anyway.

I bought those tires from North end tires (second hand - there is a thread about these guys somewhere), for $90 a pop (225/50 R16)

2 had 100% tread, and the other 2 had 99% tread.

They were great tires, had plenty of grip, but didn't last very long - about 18 months I think (everyday driving - no burnouts either). Could have mde them last 2 years if got a wheel alignment.

Anyhow, back on track.... I think those guys import them second hand from Germany, so I dont see an issue (besides maybe the cost of getting them here).

Good luck

Should be alright to ship the tyres to Australia. I dont' think customs will really care what it is for. All they care is GST. :) I'd be interested in finding out the GST and shipping for these tyres.

Wilzlee, let us know the address of the warehouse when you can!! Cheers mate!

      BNR34 identify this connector please

      By bigboss59400 · Posted

      that is correct to be more precise, this sensor goes to a loom which contains only the flat blade single terminal (to connected to this sensor) and then the connector shown in my first post. This loom is tied up to one of engine hairness

      Farewell Neil.....hope the tracks are awesome where you are going

      By Victory · Posted

      This is really sad news to hear and it has taken me a few days to come to grips with the loss of Neil.  Neil was very straight forward and I have always respected his honesty and how he called it how it was.  He was a very knowledgeable man and was always available to provide advice when you needed help to solve a problem because he would have encountered the same issue in the past and could explain how he solved it.  Neil will be missed by many members of the Skyline family.

      GOT SUM's RB34

      Dropped the car down to my mates shop on the 19th to get it on the dyno. Ran the motor in and dropped the running in oil and filter and filled it up with some engine oil.  Monday arvo I went down and we got a tune in her. Had a fun time trying to get it to hook up on the rollers. We end up having to roll into the throttle, reaching full throttle at around 6k. Made 23psi on gate then tapered off to 20psi up the top and spat out a healthy 700rwhp.  We had a slight voltage issue which was dropping ecu volts to around 11.8v so we called it quits and on Tuesday I went down and ran a couple of new power feeds to the ECU and DBW relays. Have yet to test it as we were trying to get things sent into the ECU from the TCU over CAN. We've now got oil temp, programme switch and gear position. Still working on gearbox speed, but have been told what to do so hopefully that will sort it. Once we've got speed working, we can start setting up the gear shift cuts and do some clutch adaptations in the TCU.  Should have the majority of it setup this week and go over the tune to see how it is now with the new power wire.  Was slack this time, didnt get any full runs as I was watching the TCU data on the laptop.

      Power Steering Fluid Leaking Consistently

      By silviaz · Posted

      Not until I googled it, now I remember lol. Seems like it's just to clean it up. But it doesn't stop the leak, I have a leak issue though? Thinking whether I need a new bottle, surely not lol.
