I currently have Kumho Ecsta 712's on my car and there is NO WAY i'm ever having them again. For the money, it's a decent enuf tyre but it's a poor man's performance tyre. Why compromise after spending so much money in other areas of your car?

For me, my power severely outweighed the 712's grip so i've stepped up to see what the toyo can do.

ive got Kumho 711 on the back atm, and 712 on the front

the 711's are utter shit..

712's have done very well on the front, and ive seen them do well on the back of a similar spec R33 to mine..

and for the price im getting them for, theres no real harm in trying em :)

Nangkang NSII................. they spin when you want them to and grip like hubba bubba to a dunlop volley every other time.... i got the 265 18' ones and they are great. Plenty of smoke, plenty of art and they last...

Ill let you all in on a secret........ phone order from tempe tyres (www.tempetyres.com.au) in syd

17" 235 around 110 ea!!!! (85 delivery with in 4-5 days).

I paid 220 for my 265 18s and 180 for the 235 fronts.

I got a few guys together and they made it cheaper plus its still only 85 freight.

Sherriff,  

I just put a pair of the Ventus 104's on the 32 a month ago.. pretty DAMN GOOD tyre for the price.

I havent tried the 104's in the wet yet.  

Shaun

gave the Ventus 104's a run today in the wet and they were pretty good, no loss of traction accelerating fully through second in a straight line. Most of the other tyres ive used break loose at around 5500 RPM or so.

car has 210wrhp.

Shaun

i just put the 104's on early this week too..

255/40R17

235/45R17

$860 fitted....

they grip ohh so good... im struggling to spin them, launching hard, launching around corners... 260rwhp and the buggers wont budge!

highly reccomended. :D

    • The filter only filters down to a specific size. Add to that, the filter is AFTER the pump. So it means everything starts breaking your pump even if its being filtered out.
    • Just like in being 14mm too small (296mm) makes it not fit, being 14mm too big (324mm) it also won't fit. You want to find the correct rotor.
    • @GTSBoy Ok so that was the shops problem...they showed R33 rotors on R34 page and i did not know 296 do not fit(and are for R33) Yes i bought "kit" with rotors and pads. Pads are ok(i have GTT calipers front and rear). They have some 324mm but no 310mm. So i dont know if they would fit. I have 17inch LMGT4s So another question. Can i fit those in the rear or they are just "too" big for that?
    • I started removing the tank a while back with the intent to give it a proper clean. Got to a bolt that I couldn't undo completely due to a diff being in the way, so just said f**k it and siphoned the gluggy old fuel out and called it a day. Looking it the tank it looks less corroded than the one in the pics for that billet hanger from Frenchy's anyway. Isn't it the fuel filters job to worry about this stuff? I scraped off most the crusty shit of the hanger but will give it another go before reinstall coz maybe the fuel and return pipes are also full of gunk  
    • Pretty sure it is a common fault. I believe this is the only part you need, but don't quote me as I don't have a V36.  I also believe it is a bit of a pain to change and the device needs to be encoded to the car once it is replaced, so may need someone with the right tools.
