The RS-R run slightly wide as well. Go the same size you did on those.

Will see how i go... A few supply issues with them as they are discontinued!

I didn't notice my RS3's to be any wider than the dunlops that were on the evo.. The federals have a massive casing too so you shouldn't have a drama with the hankooks fitting under your car Matt :yes:

I've had kumho ku36 in 265/35/18 all around on my gtr for about a year and half now

In the beginning they were good, now for past year they are just getting harder and harder and the tyre noise is unbearable, drives me crazy !

Rears have about 20-30% left fronts about 40%

I'm taking them off and going for nitto INVO's in 265 have herd nothing but good things about them

The invo's are a great tyre Michael had em on my old 33 they are literally silent on the road and I found them really good in the wet too! ;)

When are these RS3's going on Matty? :)

2 are on, 2 are for sale...

Road test this weekend :banana:

Got some 235 Z222s on the front and some 255 Fed RSR on the back

Will let you know how they go at racewars :) ( if my cars ready )

You are all backwards :P

I have 255RSR up the front and 275 Z222 down the back ;)

Was going to get Rsr all around,

Could get front z222 cheaper than rsr, so i got them.

I do track work, so tighter tyres on front could be better

Yeah i will be doing plenty of track work and know the RSR front wont be up to the task ;)

I have just scored a set of 34GTR rims and will start researching proper tyres and will keep the current combo as my street/thrasher set!

Make sure you report back with thoughts on the Z222 ;)

I have 245/40s on my 34 GTR runs (on a 33 gtst s2) and they seem OK. Looking for a replacement and thinking RE050A or Pirelli?? Or the Invo's you guys all seem to rate. My RE01s are worn and the road noise is terrible, looking for a grippy but quiet set.

I just scored a set of 34GTR rims and will run Hankook z221 all round in 265/35/18... Not ideal for street though! Ill run the XT7 setup for street!

The RSR's kept me on the runway at 240km/h at racewars, thats a pass for me :)

Will let you know how they go on the track.

Pressures make the biggest difference with the RSR!

Ill have mine on the track on the 25th too :yes:

    • Hi, is the HKS  Tower Bar still available ? negotiable ? 🤔
    • From there, it is really just test and assemble. Plug the adapter cables from the unit into the back of the screen, then the other side to the car harness. Don't forget all the other plugs too! Run the cables behind the unit and screw it back into place (4 screws) and you should now have 3 cables to run from the top screen to the android unit. I ran them along the DS of the other AV units in the gap between their backets and the console, and used some corrugated tubing on the sharp edges of the bracket so the wires were safe. Plug the centre console and lower screen in temporarily and turn the car to ACC, the AV should fire up as normal. Hold the back button for 3 sec and Android should appear on the top screen. You need to set the input to Aux for audio (more on that later). I put the unit under the AC duct in the centre console, with the wifi antenna on top of the AC duct near the shifter, the bluetooth antenna on the AC duct under the centre console The GPS unit on top of the DS to AC duct; they all seem to work OK there are are out of the way. Neat cable routing is a pain. For the drive recorder I mounted it near the rear view mirror and run the cable in the headlining, across the a pillar and then down the inside of the a pillar seal to the DS lower dash. From there it goes across and to one USB input for the unit. The second USB input is attached to the ECUtec OBD dongle and the 3rd goes to the USB bulkhead connected I added in the centre console. This is how the centre console looks "tidied" up Note I didn't install the provided speaker, didn't use the 2.5mm IPod in line or the piggyback loom for the Ipod or change any DIP switches; they seem to only be required if you need to use the Ipod input rather than the AUX input. That's it, install done, I'll follow up with a separate post on how the unit works, but in summary it retains all factory functions and inputs (so I still use my phone to the car for calls), reverse still works like factory etc.
    • Place the new daughterboard in the case and mount it using the 3 small black rivets provided, and reconnect the 3 factory ribbon cables to the new board Then, use the 3 piggyback cables from the daughterboard into the factory board on top (there are stand offs in the case to keep them apart. and remember to reconnect the antenna and rear cover fan wires. 1 screw to hold the motherboard in place. Before closing the case, make a hole in the sticker covering a hole in the case and run the cable for the android unit into the plug there. The video forgot this step, so did I, so will you probably. Then redo the 4 screws on back, 2 each top and bottom, 3 each side and put the 2 brackets back on.....all ready to go and not that tricky really.      
    • Onto the android unit. You need to remove the top screen because there is a daughterboard to put inside the case. Each side vent pops out from clips; start at the bottom and carefully remove upwards (use a trim remover tool to avoid breaking anything). Then the lower screen and controls come out, 4 screws, a couple of clips (including 3 flimsy ones at the top) and 3 plugs on the rear. Then the upper screen, 4 screws and a bunch of plugs and she is out. From there, remove the mounting brackets (2 screws each), 4 screws on the rear, 2 screws top and bottom and 3 screws holding in the small plates on each side. When you remove the back cover (tight fit), watch out for the power cable for the fan, I removed it so I could put the back aside. The mainboard is held in by 1 screw in the middle, 1 aerial at the top and 3 ribbon cables. If you've ever done any laptop stuff the ribbon cables are OK to work with, just pop up the retainer and they slide out. If you are not familiar just grab a 12 year old from an iphone factory, they will know how it works The case should now look like this:
    • Switching the console was tricky. First there were 6 screws to remove, and also the little adapter loom and its screws had to come out. Also don't forget to remove the 2 screws holding the central locking receiver. Then there are 4 clips on either side....these were very tight in this case and needed careful persuading with a long flat screw driver....some force required but not enough to break them...this was probably the fiddliest part of the whole job. In my case I needed both the wiring loom and the central locking receiver module to swap across to the new one. That was it for the console, so "assembly is the reverse of disassembly"
