I already have 265/25/18 on my 18x10s so I was thinking of going wider on the 10.5s.

Ferni makes a good point though. I think the "tramlining" effect would be too great with 285>

Will prob stick with the 265s or maybe go up to 275s.

Now all I need is to find a good tyre. The Falken Azinis have been good. Just wondering what else people are using for street use. If the car hits the track, it'll only be something small like DECA so RE55s and the like aren't necessary.

Get the Pirelli P0 tires. they work wonders, they get very sticky when you drive them hard, and get them in 275-40 or 35 i use 18-10 rims on my car and i use 275 - 40 they handle great especialy when hilclimbing with the hairpin turns and a T04Z screaming full BOOST :D

I would use 275x35x18's , Toyo T1R's are a good street tyre, falken ST 115's , depends on how much money you want to spend.

As for tramming you are going to get it with 10.5" rims , it doesn't matter what tyres you use.

Although I'd like to say I run 600+ awkw on the street, I think that'd be known as suicide. I'm only running 420awkw on the street so I dare say any decent rubber will hold the car unless I decide to do some hard corey launch action.

Hahah Faid it says he has 604awkws i dont think any tyre will take that while corning :) but that power was made over 2 years ago so who knows what its got now.

      Before you blow your car up, have you checked you've made all the correct modifications to the wiring if you're still using the RB20DE loom?   Some things to look at: The pin used for the map sensor on the RB25DET, is the same pin used on the RB20DE for the Ring Gear Crankshaft Position Sensor, no idea what you've got it plugged into now. The turbo pressure control valve solenoid you're talking about on the RB25DET, the same pin is used for the Variable Air Intake Control Valve on the RB20DE.   The factory manual has the wiring pinouts in it for you to check everything. It also has the diagnostics process to read codes out. In addition, there's a great table that shows what sensors and what actuators not functioning will relate to which signals. And Nissan confirm the as everyone else has from experience, the Solenoid being disconnected won't cause a fuel cut. However, the turbo pressure sensor being missing / wrong, WILL cause a fuel cut. https://www.nicoclub.com/service-manual?fsm=Skyline%2FR34-Workshop-Manual-English.pdf

      I've been hunting info on the G Series II - this is best I have found so far(Link below). Still waiting on the G35-1150 comp map, kind of very keen   So how do we go about getting precision on that little table of yours ?   https://turbosbytm.com/sites/default/files/product/technical-info/Garrett-G-Series-II-Product_Flyer 25 30 35_1.pdf

      yeah I get ~0.6L per session into the catch can. very ethanoly. It ends up overflowing out the breather of the catch can on circuit days too even with a 2.3L capacity catch can and I only drain out ~0.6L max. So every session I have to come in and drain the catch can, which is a hassle. So this is me cracking the shits and doing everything I can without removing the motor (back of head sump drain/breather and oil restrictors off the table). plans short term are: full length splash plates remove oem cam cover baffle add foam and reinstall at -10 or -12 AN fittings to the side of the cam covers down to the sump (luckily I already have fittings in the sump) Yes the ~340,000km unopened motor is probably not helping things

      I'd use any fuel safe foam....mine went in 15 years and 15 rebuilds ago, still getting reused I'd have to say I don't understand swapping to studs to fit a particular baffle unless you are having a massive blowby issue, and even if you are addressing crankcase not head breathing is probably the next step.
