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

    • Got the passenger door on plus the master cylinder and booster. Loaded up to take it home. At home, the colour changes a lot in the light.
    • Nothing cheap, but I have seen the AC Hydraulic DK13HLQ which is pretty close to what you're asking for. The problem is the hydraulic cylinder mandates that the back of the jack be a certain height and Skylines have fairly deep inset floor jack points. A more certain and cheap option is to get some nominal 2x10 inch lumber boards and have one board be 1.5 feet, the other board 3 feet. Glue it all together with lots of clamps to maintain pressure. Make two of these. The ramp suggested above is a good idea, it takes quite a bit of clutch slip to get over each of the boards. I only need the first ~1.5 inches for my low profile jack on a standard ride height car but a lowered car you want to go up to the full ~3-3.5 inches. Paint it or store indoors if you want it to last.
    • Ok. And Nistune? I read (here too) mainly on Stagea threads that it can by "turn off" with Nistune. But they say they still had the sensor plug in. Next week iam going to the Nistune(and other ECUs) tuner so i can finally make it work. I drove the car home and apart from the cut it drove great. No misfire no smoke no hesitation or rough start...so hoping it is this sensor that is missing  
    • I just stack 2 pieces of 200x50 timber on top of each other. Total length about 900mm, with the top one being a little shorter and both having a 45° angle cut on them to make the front edge a bit of a ramp. Put these in front of each front wheel, drive up on them, throw the trolley jack under. Takes 1 minute. Scissor jacks can eat a bowl of dicks. I never use on under my car unless desperate.
    • Well, yeah. But I just expect everything other than my car to feel like a bucket of shit anyway. I still miss my Alfa 116 so much though. You could run over a 20c piece and tell whether it was heads or tails.
