So the rest of us can dream Munro , and think of what might be.

The terbs would be good but the rest of the engine to do them justice is what's gonna cost.

Free Bump

Fair comment gtrken.

What - 3 GTRs now?

I take it you'll get rid of the WRx now?

The thing that suprises me (at least in Adelaide) is the lack of mid

range performance GTRs. We have a few sick ones & lots of stockies.Where are all the 11 & 12 second GTRs???

I'm sure there are heaps of them interstate.

I think you will find he did it on Nitto Jap street rubber.

3 x GTR's but have to get rid of a couple to cash up.

The rex is used for our Rally courses ( best place for them )

And I think those 2835's would be overkill on anything less than a 2.8 litre GTR with a lot of work.

But , if I sell a couple of R's .........

Cheers

9.66 on Nittos. 3litre OS engine.

Each 2835R is rated at 420 hp.Perfect for single on SR20.

HKS 2540s are perfect for 700hp(rated at 350hp each) & still low mount.

GTRken - sell em,sell em, & go crazy on one.

sorry ndr.

I am trying to sell them - not start a discussion!

PS. IF I DO sell them - 3037S x2 will be next step up.

thanks ultim8DTM5(what does that stand for?)

I dont really understand the Jap catalog but I think the flange is

GT25.Will need external wastegate.

$3000 ea is correct.

This might help clear things up for anyone wondering about trims and fitment,

Hope it helps

Munro, I am bloody amazed that these havent gone yet, they must be close to the bargain of the century - perfect singly for a 2 to 2.5L and they sell new here for over $5K each!

Thats better - in English.

Yeah, 3037S turbos might have to wait.

could put TD06s on it, but would much rather run ball bearing

HKS turbos 'cause they are the ducks guts.

Runs well with the 2835Rs, so can stay as it is.

    • The rain is the best time to push to the edge of the grip limit. Water lubrication reduces the consumption of rubber without reducing the fun. I take pleasure in driving around the outside of numpties in Audis, WRXs, BRZs, etc, because they get all worried in the wet. They warm up faster than the engine oil does.
    • When they're dead cold, and in the wet, they're not very fun. RE003 are alright, they do harden very quickly and turn into literally $50 Pace tyres.
    • Yeah, I thought that Reedy's video was quite good because he compared old and new (as in, well used and quite new) AD09s, with what is generally considered to be the fast Yokohama in this category (ie, sporty road/track tyres) and a tyre that people might be able to use to extend the comparo out into the space of more expensive European tyres, being the Cup 2. No-one would ever agree that the Cup 2 is a poor tyre - many would suggest that it is close to the very top of the category. And, for them all to come out so close to each other, and for the cheaper tyre in the test to do so well against the others, in some cases being even faster, shows that (good, non-linglong) tyres are reaching a plateau in terms of how good they can get, and they're all sitting on that same plateau. Anyway, on the AD08R, AD09, RS4 that I've had on the car in recent years, I've never had a problem in the cold and wet. SA gets down to 0-10°C in winter. Not so often, but it was only 4°C when I got in the car this morning. Once the tyres are warm (ie, after about 2km), you can start to lay into them. I've never aquaplaned or suffered serious off-corner understeer or anything like that in the wet, that I would not have expected to happen with a more normal tyre. I had some RE003s, and they were shit in the dry, shit in the wet, shit everywhere. I would rate the RS4 and AD0x as being more trustworthy in the wet, once the rubber is warm. Bridgestone should be ashamed of the RE003.
    • This is why I gave the disclaimer about how I drive in the wet which I feel is pretty important. I have heard people think RS4's are horrible in the rain, but I have this feeling they must be driving (or attempting to drive) anywhere close to the grip limit. I legitimately drive at the speed limit/below speed the limit 100% of the time in the rain. More than happy to just commute along at 50kmh behind a train of cars in 5th gear etc. I do agree with you with regards to the temp and the 'quality' of the tyre Dose. Most UHP tyres aren't even up to temperature on the road anyway, even when going mad initial D canyon carving. It would be interesting to see a not-up-to-temp UHP tyre compared against a mere... normal...HP tyre at these temperatures. I don't think you're (or me in this case) is actually picking up grip with an RS4/AD09 on the road relative to something like a RE003 because the RS4/AD09 is not up to temp and the RE003 is closer to it's optimal operating window.
    • Either the bearing has been installed backwards OR the gearbox input shaft bearing is loosey goosey.   When in doubt, just put in a Samsonas in.
