Hi Guys, Took the plunge and got the falken 452's put on my rear today. 265/35/18, same dimension as the 451's i had worn and got taken off. WELLLLLLLLL.... drive away, then noticed on my way home the rear is scraping, i think the rear right, when i turn. Especially turning left. I think. The sidewall of these new 452's is definitely alot straigher, as in more vertical... the 451's sidewall leaned inwards alot more to the tred point. But i got no idea where they are scraping?!? I called the guys who put them on and they said to come back tomorrow to roll the guards. What is this exactly? Anyone got a pic to show me? If that doesnt work, i guess i will have to pull them off and sell them and order in 255's. Bit worried i'll have the same problem on the fronts aswell cos they will need replacing soon... maybe i should get them rolled, whatever it is, at the same time. Thoughts?

Whats Load/Speed in relation to tyres? ie comparing fk 451 to fk 452 http://www.falkentire.com/fk451_sizes.html and http://www.falkentire.com/fk452_sizes.html

Thanks mate, yeah thats what i was going to do, but that article shows people who were going to do the same i think then had to go down in tyre size?

Even if different tyre pattern? I just got a price for federal 595 235 front $190 265 rear $280. These are a different tyre pattern i assume. Tempe tyres say they dont have and cant get my rears in falken 451, only falken 452. Edit: Actually im leaning towards getting the falken 452 now since the tred pattern is similiar to the 451 and from what i have read they are a decent tyre. My only concern is here, http://forum.e46fanatics.com/showthread.php?t=407372 - they say the 452 is bigger than 451! Im not very knowledge, are they saying they are wider and taller or just wider? From what they are saying it sounds like i should maybe get 255 rear instead of 265 i currently have. Can anyone please help with this? Im happy with getting the 452 now from what ive read so can anyone comment on that link?

Hi Guys, My current tyres, falken 451's, are bald on the inside camber. I have 18" impuls rims 235 front 265 rear. I've had a look on the net for tyres over the weekend, hankook ultimate, potenza S03, Toyo T1r's, falken 451's.... are there any others i should consider? what would people recommend? Ideally i want something that will last longer than the 451's did for the inside camber wear although i plan to get a camber kit to help with that. My car does not see the track, road use only. Also, can i just change the rear and leave the fronts as is? i'e have different brand/model tyres on the front compared to rear? I think i can get away with the fronts as is for a little bit. Cheers

Xizor replied to cliff25gtst's topic in Engines & Forced Induction
what do you guys who get the neo notice after install? Any difference in performance and or economy? any other changes? -
Seems like although kezza was the local guy fronting this thing the guy in japan doing all the product side was "j-styleinc2004" - He is the bloke that has sent us the wrong shit. ie send me s1 bezels and dials instead of s2! j-styleinc2004, please come on here and address our issues you have taken money and delivered the wrong goods.

Help With My Car.....i Think The Term Is Surging?
Xizor replied to nsta's topic in Engines & Forced Induction
Can someone explain the surging to me? I am having real problems with my car at the moment is freaking me out i was just meant to go to work in chatswood and turned around and went home i was scared! I have r33 s2 stock turbo @ 12psi mech controller, fmic, turbo back zorst, pod. Its been fine pretty much had it at 12psi for over 6 months. But it gets this sort of stuttering during acceleration/spool, typically when i DONT put my down enough for high boost, which can be REALLY alarming sometimes and the car jolts. Its freaky. It only got serviced 2000km ago. It happens mostly in 2nd, but a bit in 1st and 3rd and can kinda tell some other times too just alot more subtle. Its also idling a tiny bit funny i think. I was thinking my fuel pump, its stock and car has 99k kms? Now im thinking afm? Or boost controller? I dont know. If my 12psi was a problem logically i would think i'd be experiencing the problem max boosting but thats not the case in the least. -
Tyres you use(d) and how u would rate them
Xizor replied to ZigenGT's topic in Suspension, braking, tyres and drivetrain
tempe still have 451's? you serious? man when i got mine mid-late last year they were being phased out for the 452 and almost noone had them. Im only gonna replace the rears for now, what are the Potenza S03's??? And the Toyo T1R? My car doesnt see the track but it gets alot of street use. -
Hi mate I meant to do this a few months ago but fell really sick and couldnt afford too being off work. But i have money now! I already have the bilsteins on my car so thats done. I have a s2 r33 gtst. ive just realised today the inside camber wear on my car is bad.. the inside camber on my rears is bald, so need new rears asap. and my fronts arent too much better, but i think can get away with them for a bit. left side of car wear is a bit worse than right too? So i have $1k i can spend. What do you suggest i do? whiteline springs all round and rear camber kit? Is the price list on the main page up to date? Cheers Rob

Update on my situation. Kezza finally got me 5th blue LED which is great. Got all 5 in today, they do NOT evenly illuminate the cluster.. almost do, but not quite. The top of the speedo is duller than everywhere else, i think thats what, the 80-100-120 area? Anyway, not happy about that. And whats worse, is the holes in the dials for that thing to poke out to stop the needle going below 0... well, it does NOT line up. So not only have i knocked my needles around because of this thing thinking i had done something wrong that they didnt line up, but they definitely dont line up and freaking blue light escapes through where they DO sit. And my needles dont have a stopper. And im still waiting on my metallic bezel. AND the blue LEDs lighting up the Blue MET dials doesnt look very good either to me. I'll give it a week or 2 but dead set what i have is totally not as i was led to believe, it must be the wrong product just like the bezel i got and sent back because it does NOT line up. Basically everything i've gotten has been crap and wrong. Waste of $300 and 6 months.

So these are brand new RB25 PFC with hand controller, right? Do we have to wait until all 10 are allocated before they are sent?
-
hehe there is quite a few more under cover cars than that falcon mate! I've seen atleast 4 different undercover ford/holdens in ctown area.
-
Kezza, give us an update mate! I still have not received my 5th blue LED which i paid for and waiting on the correct bezel too...
-
Come on Kezza bit more communication mate!!
-
I still havent received my 5th LED and Bezel was returned last week to Kezza for proper S2 one... unless my dodgy ass mail room at work decided it was too much hassle and are doing it today. Either way, its been sent. Atleast Kezza is still kinda replying to PMs. Be good to know whats really going on now. Wrong Bezel and no 5th LED kinda makes the whole $350 or whatever package useless so far. hmmmmmmm fingers crossed
-
Mate how much was it to tune the Neo? ive been eyeing one off for while now, nothing too extreme so suits me well. Also, where did you locate the display panel?
-
Is there an easy way i can tell for sure mate? I dont have that little sticker unfortunately, but the bezel itself is still in its plastic sleeve and stuff.
-
Thank you Dif honey... haha 12 months later i see this!
-
I can testify to the work of Alan Jon... good guy to talk too and explain things, and a great quality install. No thief will get to it easily thats for sure! Highly recommended.

Need Insurance? Want Cheaper Insurance?
Xizor replied to two40's topic in General Automotive Discussion
Decide to alter the usage habbits of my car a bit and signed up with Ryno Insurance. $1450 comprehensive for modded R33 S2. $22,200 agreed value. Better than just cars renewal offer in every way and they are easier to talk too on the phone too. -
Has anyone got their 5th LED? I havent received mine yet. Also, can someone post a pic of either the S1 or S2 bezel so i can tell which one mine is? Pretty sure mine is S1 but need pic to see to be sure... i need the S2 for my car.
