What he said.

If you find the limits of your car out there, my only question to you is; why aren't you driving for a professional racing team surrounded by easy women and earning bulk coin?

I would put good money you will find your limits before you find the cars. Especially being your first time on the track. Youre not out there to break records but to have fun safely and enjoy your car

^spot on

I never said I was the greatest racer alive. If I was I wouldnt need brake upgrades etc.

so does that mean you'll be out there?

there are plenty of guys out on the track in GTS-t's that don't run mega large brakes. and they do fine. and i doubt you'll be hitting 200km/hr down the back straight and need to pull up in less than 100m for the hairpin on you're first outing.

the GTR isnt a 2 tonne + landcruiser or a XR6 boat. you will be able to stop with the std brakes. just make sure you get track spec pads and good fluid.

if anyone is interested we have a lap timer and also some slotted front rotors and HC+ track pads for R32GTR in our sale section (also rear slottd rotors and full set of braided brake lines for S14/S15).

i might be able to come for a looksie, but id have a good guess and say the GTR wont be back together in time, and if i have the Mini going by then it wont be in any fit state to be thrashed around mallala :laugh:

Hey guys

My car came with kuhmo ecsta711 fronts and 60% Federal 595SS at the rears ( >_< prev owner ) ..265/35/18's

Will I be ok with these to run them out then get new tyres or shall I get new tyres now?

Cheers,

If you are looking for a bit more performance out of your tyres, id say go for the Federal 595 RS-R motorsport tyre

Tyrepower Blackwood will do these at members prices for you too!

If its your first day out there I'd say leave them on. They might not be great,but it will take a few sessions to get up to speed. If you can steer, have been before and take it semi seriously then look at a more performance based tyre

Yah its my 2nd track day but first time with this car

Ive been doing some forum readings...but there are so many types

Pirelli Pzero was good in my old evo

Potenza RE-11 (replacemen of RE-001???) and RE-01R not made?

Fed 595RSR and

Toyo T1R which I had in my old GTR

Your suggestion is valued

Cheers,
