Big updates, tons of work and $$$

Agreed, 130 won't cut it on bigger jobs. I had my 180 up pretty high on those the caliper adaptors. I swap n go Gas from Bunnings, I think I'm on my second E size bottle in like 4-5yrs. One day I'll bite the bullet and get a TIG setup.

Gas MIG for learning, I was able to weld up some nice 1.6mm tubs so you can do thin stuff easily enough. Then moved on to thick caliper adaptor brackets with the same machine, all good. Arc/Stick is great for dirty garden work etc, but Gas MIG for starting on car stuff. Jump on the NCR FB page and search ATP Tubs or GKTech caliper adaptors for pics/info. I'm no pro but it wasn't hard to learn. Be willing to grind and go again though if it's cold etc.

This is a real nostalgia trip for me, I mean SK Bilsteins? I ran those lol Good times. Good work Duncan, it's not an easy job in many respects. I'm sure the family appreciates it.

I managed to win under 2L turbo/4L NA class championship in our club with a single set of AR1s, including several wet rounds, and they were still getting faster end of the season 0_0 For $800 in 255/17 I was very pleased (7yrs ago so adjust for inflation) -
Don't you have a Camry to crash somewhere?

CR-S decent "budget" option, but still a grand+ for tyres. No idea what they're like in the wet though.
-
Lots of tyres were quoted above, plenty of people have shown up to cruises on many of them. Winton sprints allows full slicks and semi's in my category (C1, race car up to 2L), and semi's dominate the class. You've got to set a car up properly around slicks, semi's are much more forgiving and the setup can be more versatile for a multi-use car. I've got some used slicks fitted to the wheels already for the Silvia so we'll see how I go when the time comes. 2 sets of wheels is almost always the answer for a weekender.
-
MMM ok, I see a bit of praise for RE003s, but CR-S sounding like a better option, seems Nankang wants those to replace the AR-1
-
I would also add to the above that setting up a car for slicks is a bigger change to the car over all, lots of people have wacked used slicks on and gone slower, the heat cycling issue and the suspension setup being the 2 biggest issues.
