Be carfull with getting wide tyres on a front engine rwd. As I found good 285's - 335's are all designed for rear or mid engined cars that have a lot of weight over the rear wheels. In a front engine rwd you will never get the tyre working properly to generate any grip. Dunlop do make a good 285 but again its in a hard compound designed for Porchers :(

Our car was 30K...but then broke the world record for labour charges for a GTR street engine build (no, unfortunately we didn't build this one) So yes you car may be cheaper than ours...hehe

Is that from the same people who brought you "2hrs labour/install for a plug-in ECU" ??

Woops Dunlop do make a good 295 not 285 but it is for Porchers. There is a 285 in a Bridgestone RE55 but you will never fit it on a jap car as it is way too tall. Again it doesnt come in a soft enough compound for a front engine rwd :laugh:

thinking of running a book on what our best time will be.

bit like a guessing competition, contestants nominate a lap time to the nearest 10th of a second...$10 to enter...winner takes all. Nearest to the time wins or 1/2 the cash if tied.

so who's in?

I'm running 265 wide Re55s on my GTR and a couple of the guys at QR are running 285s on theirs... ?

edit: Paul I havent used one on mine but really need one. Have watched the guys with one at QR in comparison to me and corner exit looks a whole lot more pleasant than without one!!! lol

Our suspension mechanic looked at some details on it today...he's impressed with it. Im sure Luke will get the best out of it.

How are the tyres coming along Jas?

I have some spare white walls if needed :D

I think they are only 12 inch in diameter as they may be from my old Datto 1200 days.

Ruzic ATTESSA controller going in car this weekend...anyone got one/used one?

Currently run one in my 33 GTR. I like it. Allows for more control over the power shift. Certainly makes my front diff work a litter harder (and hotter) as I tend to have the power transfer come on quicker than standard. For want of a better word, gives you more "feel" and more controlled power slides in tight corners.

      Compatible rear drive shafts R34 N/A?

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      They should do. I have S14 (or something S chassis, anyway) driveshafts in my R32 (because my diff flanges have 3x2). They're the right length. When you go looking for R32/3/4 driveshafts (for turbos), they're all the same thing, so are the same length. So there really shouldn't be any reason why those cheapies from JJ won't also fit an R34. R32/3 NA should also be the same thing. The (3x the price) D-Max ones are uni-fit. They have 5x1 and 3x2 bolt holes and say they cover all the cars. So that would also suggest that they are all the same except for the flanges. And in that case, the flange goes both ways. I'd be buying the D-Max ones if I ever have to replace a shaft. Because that will open up diff options without needing to juggle shafts also. Juggling shafts is gay.

      GReddy Injector Help!

      By ChoppedSpots · Posted

      Yeah with the adaptors they do look like the photo above - just the fitment within the plenum itself and then further with the rail to the intake is questionable - we shall see tomorrow hopefully once I get some replies from Aeroflow, maybe those bosses are the missing piece....

      GReddy Injector Help!

      By Dose Pipe Sutututu · Posted

      Should be fine, if you have it sitting too far in, you end up just spraying the walls and have shit idle. You "can" run them like that, however I don't think it's a great idea (also depends on your plenum, might be good to just get the injector bosses first, mock it up and see if you need to get the bottom extension) Ideally your injectors, with the extension should look like this  (Not my photos, just Google)

      By ChoppedSpots · Posted

      Thanks for the replies guys, it's really appreciated.  It seems the kit was supposed to come with those injector bosses but hasn't. Unsure if they'll help as even with the adaptors to make them a 3/4 height injector they still sit too far out so mount the fuel rail?

      Compatible rear drive shafts R34 N/A?

      By RB25inside · Posted

      Hello, I am looking to replace my two rear drive shafts in my R34 N/A Skyline but I'm finding conflicting information. Do S13/S14/S15 or R32 NA/ R33 NA fit? https://justjap.com/products/gsp-premium-rear-drive-shaft-l-h-nissan-silvia-s13-s14-s15-3x2-type?currency=AUD&srsltid=AfmBOoqY7EwDaYCUoUU3mxxZ_qrUXkVVHiV4MIN7ozoar6scjnEiekv- would this fit?
