Hey mate

I'd like to know what they're like as well, as i've been chasing a set for a friend...

Good luck finding some though... they've been discontinued, and most places have already used up their stock... between $200 and $220 seemed to be the going price at about 5 different places i called (and of 3 i was told that there was no stock, and another 1 said they had a few left, and the final one said that their supplier had 4 left in Australia)

i have Yoko 102s on my GTR. Super in both wet and dry. They rocked!!

i understand that 539s are no longer in production and the C-Drive are the replacement versions? One of my mates has it and commented that they grip really well

hmm, i have run a set of the A539s on my old car...mind you they were 15" but yeah, really happy with them for the price tag...they stick like shit to a blanket so to speak, even in the wet, mine were pretty high profile so they had alot of roll in the sidewall but if you were going to get lower profile they should be fine.

They are a very soft compound so they will wear quicker than others, but they will hold the road really nicely and they aren't noisy at all...reccomend them!

great thanks guys... These were recommended to me at my local tyre shop and I wanted some second opinions... he didn't mention they were discontinued so they may be trying to get rid of the old stock, which doesn't really bother me as I'm getting a decent price...

most tyres will be better than the bald federals I have at the moment;)

this would be me :rofl:

c.drives stick like dried poo on a toilet roll... much quieter, different compound

i believe, different tread pattern and far grippier than the 539s...

i first got the c.drives as an experiment type thing - because they stopped 539s.

as soon as i left the tyre shop (not even run in) i cud notice the difference..

that said - if u can still get 539s and for a good price then get them, you'll love them.

    • A bit late but A disk S13P fit over stock R32 GTR brakes, usually A disk front, O disk rear works.
    • Or, the height of the release bearing is not correct for your combo. Start with the bleeding and checking the slave moves throughout its range when you press the pedal (2 person required), but it is possible for the height to be internally wrong too (box back off to measure.
    • Yes, there's quite a few things that can go wrong during a clutch install. Very unlikely. I have a similar clutch. They (ACS) make good gear. No, it is not normal. It is possible that you just need to bleed the clutch slave. But the new clutch will also have a more aggressive actuation force/pressure, and so your old slave cylinder might be a bit leaky or otherwise compromised, and not up to the extra force required. Or the master cylinder, same.
    • Hi...so a "development" here aswell The swap is "done" and car went "test drive" BUT it seems the clutch(maybe gearbox?) is a little bit sad? I bought this clutch kit https://justjap.com/products/xtreme-heavy-duty-organic-clutch-flywheel-kit-nissan-skyline-r31-r32-r33-push-type "Problem" is that the first gear is hard to put into and it seems that the clutch is not disengaged. It was not the problem with the old clutch...(or like sometime the first gear would not get as easy specialy when the fluid was cold) So? Can it be like...bad "install" or is the clutch wrong ((it should not have been) i done research to get the right one) Or is this "normal" with new clutch and needs to be break in? 
    • @Duncan I can try  and thanks i did not thought about VIN and part numbers for 33/34. @GTSBoy yeah it looks like iam gonna do that
