I have to upload that pic I took from the Autosalon thing.

Because how those tyres are called semi slicks is beyond me. They are slicks with 2 tiny grooves. lol

Yes I know pushing the boundaries but DOT and not as good in the wet that is for sure but may be better in the dry than fully treaded semi slicks but maybe not. Much cheaper than all the other semi slicks though. I guess I will have to go out and buy much more expensive RE55's or similar then and do it. What if faster though?? Maybe then it will be said it is our special car polish we use.

Grandad with the cardigan Here,

take it easy on JP you guys, do you know how much those tyres cost?

He's had to moonlight as a pizza delivery boy to be able to get those.

Hey Jp do you think if i take the baby seat out of the Zed it will go faster?

Speed boat Pizza delivery, ha ha got in first.

That's gold Wiz. :)

WTF, baby seat?

Hey some might think I am rallying zed owners onto the Skyline forum. At least I have GTR parts in my zed what are you guy's doing over here??

Hey by the way here is the times and notice an R32 GTS-T in the 51 bracket also very good. Faster than a few GTR's also, what's going on. Also Reddy good time in the 51's. Huge improvement from the last one.

GTR Jason popped in yesterday to the track but car not ready otherwise he would have been in there re the times too I suspect.

They are a dangerous tyre, its that simple.

In the wet they are 100% certain death trap and shouldnt be used.

I dunno who's cock was stroked to get them legal, but the amount of trouble you had keeping your car on the track is just evidence those tyres are un-safe.

I reckon you get out there on a set of RE55's like everyone else :(:) :) ;)

I mean, put it through the business as promitional or something.

Im sure you have a bean-counter who can work that out. I mean, it is promotional isnt it? :)

My wife is the bean couter and not fussed on cars or race cars much so a bit of smoke and mirrors. Yes claim it all on tax but funds are tight. The Hoosiers cost me almost half what Dunlops or Bridestone semi's cost me. They are radials and DOT approved.

i once saw a young zed owner leaving some special polish on your car john, not a pretty sight!

lol

:)

Was it the go fast stuff or fast go stuff Richard?

Now John, if you really want to improve your track times I will drive the wagon down and put the tow rope on. You pay for the fuel, Ill take care of the beer and pizza.

Best regards,

Ken from Darwin.

    • Those car show concepts from the 2000's and 2010's like the Floria and IDx were brilliant and should've gone ahead, at least one of them. But neither Honda nor Nissan are thinking about affordable performance any more, which is truly sad.  Even if Toyota's liquid hydrogen ICE development reaches the point where it's commercially viable and the infrastructure to support it, Honda/Nissan would have to wait until Toyota allow fee access to their patents to offer it with any smaller performance models they released to take advantage of it.  
    • A sporty manual RWD coupe with a IL4 Honda engine would only be a good thing I assume we won't see anything released for a few years though, unless informal talks and designs have been going on for a few years,  and due to the current, and future, emmisions and safety requirements, I assume anything "sporty" they would do would be at least some hybrid thingie And hopefully anything they are thinking of has nice lines, without lots of plastic and fake bits hanging off it like that horrendous FK8 that looked like it was designed by a 13 year old The other issue of course in the current market is cost, currently the type R is around $70k, a twin is around $50k Meh, I'm old and grumpy and would rather buy a older model car and waste my coin on that than buying anything currently available new  
    • Nissan needs to forget about building SUVs in every size possible and bring back the damn Silvia/200sx duo to compete with the 86/brz. Maybe with the Honda type r motor pointing the right way
    • Good to see you followed your heart, got your dream car and have it pretty well sorted out now. I think anyone can get caught out with a seller not being 100% honest about a cars problems. Can relate to all the electrical issues, had similar issues with my first car (mk2 escort) ages ago
    • I just bought the Nexus S3 for my gtt, haven’t installed it yet as I’m collecting parts to do everything at once…so far spent $14,000 The Nexus is nearly future proof
