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

    • Bit difficult to follow. Have a look below and see what the standard R32 layout was like. Note there was a restrictor in place immediately before "turbocharged pressure control solenoid" that, if removed, magically got you 1 bar boost.
    • I might be way off the mark here.. there must be a T junction under the manifold. That takes manifold pressure through a check valve prior to the T, one side splits out to this bleed off orifice, the other straight to the wastegate actuators. 
    • Carrying out some engine due diligence before my first drive in a 260RS that has been in storage for 10+ years, and found two lines that are susposed to be plumbed into the boost control solenoid. One of the lines (the wastegate boost supply line) to actuate the gates, had a bolt in one end blocking it. The other line (main boost signal line) from the very rear of the intake manifold (RB26DETT) and runs up to the boost controller had this pill in the end of it as seen in photos. Other than the obvious (T28 Ceramic turbos might well be cooked)  Can anyone shed any light on if there is any validity at all with this mod, bleeding a constant fixed rate of manifold boost pressure off through this 3mm hole?  Is it deliberate?  Was this a 90s Jap mod done to RB26's? Or has someone just fitted this without any idea of what happens to ceramic T28s if they are not gate controlled?    
    • This looks great! Awesome to have the 5 speed with an LSD in this. The Recaro's look like SR2's or SR3's. It's a shame they've been retrimmed as they would have looked sweet in their original colours. I think I'd want my agent to be a little more up front and informative too. I've never imported but I reckon it would make me a little nervous, so the more info the better.
