That's a good point, when road is just wet its true it's more so when it' soaked with a few mm of sitting water even shitty tyres with channels to get rid of the water makes me feel a little better instead of a flat bald tyre aquaplaning

1 dif is that i only ever ran 235's aswell

Used to do it to uni everyday

Skipping all the traffic made me so happy

Wearing boots all day not so

Yeah well I'd probably have to leave my work shoes at work.. annoyingly ride with shirt and slacks underneath gear

Always get WTF looks when de-panting at my desk

Makes you wonder how often shit like this is happening all around Melbourne

I'm guessing a lot

More than you would like to think.

Thank christ we ( not me, NAB ) sold all our Greek assets when this all started!

Whoever we sold them to probably doesn't think they are so clever now lol.

The whole Greek attitude to this situation is laughable.

Apparently it's the banks fault not theirs, not the government, The bloated pensions, tax optional welfare state had nothing to do with it.

Why? (srs question)

Longevity?

The NT05's are just touching the indicators in the center now, on the sides there's maaarginally more, but barely enough to catch a fingernail on.

Where else to go for alignment duties? TT always been nice to me, but heard a few things now...

Longevity is definitely a big player here, AD08s you can supposedly get 30,000km out of a set which is fantastic for what type of tyre they are.

But in my opinion I think the AD08s are better tyres due to the sidewall. They're much stiffer than the RS3s so they're a bit more predictable when it comes to breaking traction. Where as to drive RS3s fast you have to be on their limit which is a lot more "wallowy" than the AD08s, if that's the right word. To boot they seem to have more grip as well.

interesting.

this is a good thing for me as a bit more side wall flex is a good thing.

running max camber a bit more give gives more grip.

same as softening off my front sway bar gained me 1.5 seconds at winton.

    • Hey Nismo, any chance in the world you still have these seats?
    • I'd say closer to OG GTX3582R, just smaller trim - so 59mm inducer/82mm exducer as opposed to 62/82 for the first gen GTX3582R. Yeah EFRs were boss, the EFR8474 is still an absolute beast and it perplexes me that people still go to things like Turbosmart/Garrett etc when the results people are getting with those are pretty unremarkable compared to what you could get with a turbo available well before those options came out.  DriftSquid (I think) "upgraded" from an EFR9174 to a Turbosmart turbo and promised a comparison video - and kinda shuffled awkwardly and did a bit of diversion from the fact that they didn't get any improvement going to the currently massively hyped brand of turbo from a turbo that was a bit of a frankenstein that had been well superceded in it's own range before the Turbosmart unit he put on there even came out. I suspect the EFR would outperform most Xonas for what a lot of less-insane RB owners would go for, in the 400-600kw range but the Xonas are looking hard to beat up to maybe in the mid 700kw range at this stage- basically where EFRs don't really reach, and before the Precision turbos take over.  What the Xonas do well in the "EFR range" is be easier to package etc, and work very well if a divided housing doesn't suit your application.  
    • Are you sure the gasket is blown? What are the issues? Thermocure is the only flush I've seen do anything with rust, very impressed with that, Prestone, rust will be by the pool having a cigarette.  
    • And since the flush you have a blown head gasket? Have you lifted the head off yet?
