guys

i want to order some tyres for my 33 gtr. Running 18 x 10.5" rims so from what i've read/heard the best bet is michelin 27/65-18's. I've also been told to try to squeeze the 27/68-18's on/in but i think it's going to be too tight.

Anyone used either size on a 33 gtr?

they could be called a 280/60/18... where as the 27/65 is more like a 45 series.

getting them new is ok but for second hand, abit tricky as only 2 cars in gt and production sports use them. gt3 rsr gt car and the supra i used to work on in production sports.

I have some 2nd hand ones that I haven't had a chance to use yet.

Going to buy a new set for drive Bathurst

My other option is to buy some 285 re55's but the car is going to have 400awkw.

Which set of tyres will last longer? I would be getting the s9 Michelin

Also, European guys in Melbourne are charging 660 each for the slicks. Can anyone else import them?

      And 90% of the time those people turn out to be wrong anyway. But they still treat themselves as a victim...

      I used the radium thing, makes the whole parallel assembly a lot more compact compared to any other way of doing it

      Racetronix also sells those ethanol content sensor bypass blocks. Adapter, Flex-Fuel E85 Sensor High-Flow Bypass, In-line No Sensor (ADF-FLEX-NS): Adapters - Flex Fuel | Racetronix Ethanol content sensor are originally designed to be on the feed line. These bypass blocks are meant to be ran in the feed line and not return. The continental ethanol content sensors have a 3/8" ID and not 5/16". This is why they are ran on the return line directly in conjunction with a low threshold sampling value VS in the feed with one of these blocks.    Haha we think alike, I used both original feed/return for 8AN feed, and one of the Hicas lines as a 6AN return. I also capped off and left the other Hicas line as a spare.

      R32 gtst speedo out by 10kph

      Interesting, I haven't read about the issue with oil getting into the speedo in the cluster before. I'll have to take more notice with mine. The speedo on my R32's when I've run factory diff and tyre size have never been accurate as far as I can remember. The non Type-M GTS-t did come with 15" 5 stud wheels and smaller brakes, but that's less than 5% of them.

      Good to hear the condenser you picked up off my brother worked all good. Do you think there could be an issue with your AC compressor itself or the clutch on it then? I don't know a lot about them so I can't really help but keen to hear what it ends up being. Keep the build thread going man, it's nice to look back on over time.
