Had a chat to the owner of this GTR yesterday. What an amazing car, it was so quick across the back of the track I couldn't believe how late the breaking was. Unfortunately he was leaving when I finally said g'day so I didn't get much info but no doubt somebody on here knows more about it.

Well, what can I say? I wish I'd done tyres to my old cars rather than other stuff first. I couldn't believe how well the car performed on the RS4's. They just kept holding up all day, I think I did 6 sessions and each session was just so good. In the old days my car would give up after 2 or 3 sessions and even before giving up it wasn't great. The 330 just kept going and holding and not over/under steering (unless I was in too hot). Can't get over how good they are. If R compound tyres are even better then by the time I learn how to drive again I'll have to upgrade. Was so good to be able to trust the tyres and brakes 100%. Neither let go. Awesome. Thanks guys. Looks like I'll be trying to do more track days in the future with the old girl.

I understand this. Wheels need to be perfect!

Love that wheel!

Thats going to be an awesome project! Was it on its wheels while stored? Front wheel gap is insane! Looks like it has no engine!

I've disabled it for the time being. I might be able to make it a user setting so you can disable it.

No, not trivial at all. If I don't hear from people on issues that affect them then I can't make things better. I'm trying to promote content to encourage clicks but I need to balance that with usability and experience. If I'm reducing people's positive experience by trying to get clicks, then its not worth keeping it. It's hard to keep making the ends meet these days. I'm happy to disable or try to show it to guests only.

Fwiw this has been in the bottom right corner for many years now. It's not new.

What about it gives you the shits? Does it get in the way? You using desktop or mobile?

Hey Jake and welcome to I'm sorry for your loss but happy for your motivation to take on this project. do you want me to move this topic into the build threads section? You might get a few extra followers in there.

She's a bog stock non turbo 330i, she aint quick

How did you go @GinD18?

What do you tow? Can't see the Santa Fe being able to pull the skin off soup.

Dang. What a beast! I love the RS's, any of them.

Damn, it looks fantastic! Great project, I love the pics! Boot looks awesome. Wheels and tyres are a good fit.

If you havent already tested this then hold off. I have to reindex the search which will break a few things for the next day or so. Soz guys

Can you guys check now?

Roughly what day did this start happening?

Hey @Dose Pipe Sutututu can you let me know if it is still appearing?

Welcome! I love R32 Gtst's being future proofed. @GTSBoy's post is awesome. Maintenance/Repair will be crucial and you need to do it before modifying as painful as that will seem. @GinD18create a thread in the relevant section if you have any q's, theres a lot of members who will be able to assist that way and your content helps others.

Welcome to ! Car looks great, any more pics?

Ok, so, based on available funds and availability, I went with the Hankook RS4's. I know they're not a proper R compound and maybe I'll upgrade to that one day. The fronts were $170ea which was hard to beat and the rears came in the factory size of 255/40/17 which is apparently a little uncommon. Hopefully they are ok on my super slow, super body rolling E90. Not a lot will be asked of them over the course of the day. I'm also not going to be doing more than 2 or 3 track days per year I wouldn't think. If they aren't great I'll look to upgrade when funds permit (yeah right!). Thanks again guys.

Hi Guys, these all should now be sorted, let me know if there are any other issues.

Welcome! That will be a cracker daily. Makes me jealous. Good to know you're going to give it some love.

Thanks guys, keep them coming. I'm just waiting for the search to reindex and I can start tackling these issus.
