This group buy starts immediately and will conclude on the 1st of January OR when 10 pairs (20 in total) are paid for, whichever is the sooner. We need to have orders and payment for 20 individual tyres in total for the price to stand.

The product on offer is pairs of Mickey Thompson ET Street Radials (Drag Radials) in either 275/40/17" OR 255/50/16". We can have any combination of these sizes to comprise the order. The 275/40/17" sized tyres are known by Mickey Thompson as "blemished" stock. I have personally inspected the stock on hand of these tyres and they are incredibly hard to pick why they are listed as blemished. These tyres are cosmetically different (although usually un-noticable unless you're inches from the tyre) but are still 100% stucturally guaranteed. The 155/50/16" size are normal stock.

The prices we will be getting for these tyres are as follows:

255/50/16" - $245.00ea - (MSRP is $283.00ea)

275/40/17" - $225.00ea - (MSRP is $311.00ea)

The company that is supplying the products for the group buy is Rocket Industries

The products can be collected from Wollongong/WSID by prior arrangement or may be shipped road freight at buyer's expense.

Associated costs for delivery will vary depending on your location.

These tyres can and will typically drop tenths, sometimes quite a few of them off of your quarter mile ET. They're usable on the street so driving to and from a race meeting on them isn't a problem. I drive 107km to the track on them, let some air out of them, race, then put some air back in and drive 107km home!

Cheers,

Adrian

The 17's are very very good. They are MUCH better than Nitto NT555R's and I ran 1.68 60' times on those tyres. These are better again.

The group buy end date is in the first post. Quite a while between now and then.

      Welcome. This is not really true. We have a whole forum here just for the NA shitboxen. And they are not very different from the turbo shitboxen. Just weaker brakes and gearboxes, and no LSD, for the most part.

      I'm pretty sure it has an 040 in it @Duncan Also reading up, that turbo should top out at 250 as you first thought. It will be interesting to see how early it chokes due to the changes in the head too

      Yeah confirmed they are Nismo 555s, found the boxes in the spares with the factory injectors in. Yeah the AAC has been relocated to allow reuse of the factory brake booster line, and yes confirmed it has a 1 way valve in it. Unfortunately the one on the car is cracked, I'll need to replace it. Pretty sure I've got all the AAC plumbing correct in my previous post, but I am going to source some new fittings with 90o angles to help with the hose routing and also one really specific moulded shape for the AAC intake to cold start hose (will raid the back of our local repco when I get a chance and work out some combo that works) One of the big things I learned in the GTR is you need to be able to get your hands all around the bay when something goes wrong. I've done a bunch of re-routing now and it should be much more practical now. Also got the BOV mount re TIG-ed by the local engineering shop so that should be good to go now. Never got to the fuel pump because of some life stuff today, but will pull it to confirm it is suitable for 300rwkw when I get a chance

      Hello everyone, I am from Malta and have recently bought myself a fully stock 1992 Nissan Skyline GTS. It has the RB20DE engine and thus is NA. Unfortunately, not a lot of information can be found online related to the GTS, unlike the information for GTS-T and GTR variants. Apart of the Skyline, I also got a 1984 Porsche 924 2.0l NA and a 2002 Renault Clio 1.5DCi for everyday use. Excited to be apart of the community and perhaps get better information on cars such as the GTS.

      The fuel pump bracket just slides straight up.  Below is a pic I stole off a site. But basically put hand in for fuel pump, wiggle it all about a bit while pulling up.
