Hi Guys,

It has come to my attention, through the number of PM's that I get, that there are a number of people interested in 2nd-hand tyres for both street and drags purposes. As I have two mates who import cars then I can get my hands on tyres quite cheap.

I have already given away a few sets of drag tyres, tyres for the drags not slicks, and sold some street tyres. I must point out that I make no money out of this whatsoever, and am just doing it to help those of you who can't/don't want to pay for new tyres.

I am currently searching for tyres for three different people, if anyone else is interested then PM me and I'll see what I can do.

I currently have:

2x Falken Ziex 255/40 17's 75% tread even wear $80each

2x Bridgestone Grid II 265/35 18's for use as drag tyres

I also currently know or a couple sets ot 18's , a set of 255/45/17's and possibly 235/45/16's for street use.

Let me know if you are interested.

See'ya:burnout:

Yes this offer is on-going, whenever you need some tyres then just let me know.

Seeing as I'm in PERTH, this offer is only practical for those people living here, but I'm sure that if you have an importer living near you then you could pop down there and get tyres at decent prices.

In general for tyres with 50-75% tread you will only pay 1/3 of the retail price, which is pretty good value for money.

G0DF4Th3R, let me know when your back.

Pva_Glue, I'll have a look for you.

Yes, I'm giving first dibs to those who have requested those sort of tyres, but if he doesn't want them then there are free to whoever wants them.

As you may have noticed the thread moved from the ForSale section to the WA forum, thanks Skyzerr, as I wanted to make sure that everyone in Perth could check it out if they wanted to.

I had a PM asking about the drag tyres, the reason they are for the drags only is that they have insufficient tread for legal road use, but they are great for a spare set of rims to run at the 'Plex, which is what I do.

driftr33,

Thanks for the kind words. I spend all of my spare time doing car things, and if I can help someone out with some cheap tyres then I will. I find that most people with import cars are nice and helpful, will lend you things if you need them or come over and fix your car if they can. I think this forum provides a good way to network and help other people with a similar interest.

Hi Guys,

Just thought I'd update you on the tyre front. It looks like I got tyres for gtrken and InitialD. Bambam wants 4x235/45/17's, Hicks is after some tyres for the drags.

If anyone else is after anything then let me know now so that I can get all the tyres in one hit.

See'ya:burnout:

    • Have a vb in honour of the car comming back
    • It was a great, but typical track day, and some VB was ingested at the night time debrief 🤪
    • And so, to round this out, I couldn't be happier to confirm @MBS206 has decided to buy the car. He drove down from sunny QLD with a trailer last week and it is off to its new home today. I'll let Matt confirm on next steps but I understand broadly that the plan is to leave it pretty much as is, and just get some quality wheel time with a nicely balanced car that is pretty much track ready. There are a few a jobs still to be done first but nothing too major and I think its a very smart buy Dinner last night at the Paragon with a round of VBs (mostly) for Neil
    • Well, 50 pages and the end of a chapter for this car. We took it out for a shakedown at Wakie yesterday, and everything went well. There were a couple of niggles: - Oil cooler fitting leak - tightened, cleaned, stopped leaking - Radiator cap overflow fitting was leaking....Mark called it, the overflow fitting was threaded in and not tight....tightened, tested and held pressure - Small oil leak at the rear of the block, probably the turbo oil feed - too hot to get at it comfortably but probably just needs to be nipped up - leak at the driver's side rear brake line where it meets the hardline. Fitting wasn't loose, so Matt backed it off and back on, no further leaks - there's also a leak somewhere on the top of the fuel tank, maybe that cross over fuel line - that was has been left to fix when its on a hoist Otherwise than those niggles the car went great, turned great and stopped great so it was a very successful day out. I'm always really nervous when a car first hits the track after a long break, especially with a brand new engine as well but it was great. VID-20251011-WA0007.mp4  Big thanks to @The Bogan who dropped by and helped out, @MBS206 and my nephew Lachlan the apprentice.  Neil's wife Mel also surprised the hell out of all of us by dropping by; she's up in Tamworth these days but was travelling to Melbourne so had plausible deniability for turning up at the garage, it was great to see her but also obviously a bit sad all round.
