I warned him before he bought them lol. He said nah, I got good luck since putting them on.. Lol

Poor alwina

beats having a 32R disappear on you

That said, this is what the defect notice says.

1. Air cleaner - to be secured

2. Rear wheels, to be covered to axle height.

no rwc required.

Will cable tie down the pod, and also, put on the wheels off the v35 on.

He tried to tell me my car needs Z rated tyres. like reary?

So fingers crossed, when the epa comes, its just noise, i know its not possible, but a man can hope.

thought you said semi's....

RS-R def not semi's

It's weird, half the places I look advertise them as semi slicks, but they look like (and have the specs of) like... extreme performance tyres. Either way, bang for buck it looks like they're what I'm after :)

Yeh they are pretty good tyres, they screech abit but like Martin said. Not semi.. Borderline though

as a general rule, semi is lower than 100-120 wear rating

rs-r are 140,

my R888's are street legal so it not like that a hard thing.

o rly?

im looking at getting semi's sometime next year, so will be doing some research then.

Edit: can anyone recommend a decent place for interior detailing? south/east regions

If he saw the bleed valve then that's a full EPA. The same goes for intercooler an airpod.

Vicroads staff don't know what bleed valve is. They will look at wheels and pod and go back.

Where does one acquire cheap R888's.?

I better tape up my bleed valve with black tape once my tuned is finished then :ninja:

Coming to GC tomorrow night Pat?

If you've got the stock airbox, you can tuck it under there pretty nicely as well. Makes it super hidden.

That's pretty cheap!

Still a bit more than I wanted to spend on DECA and a few track days.

$240 fitted for a 265/35/18 595RS-R

vs

$730/2=$365 unfitted,unshipped for a 265/35/18 R888

Different league of tyre I know, but for my level of competition... its a bit more than I was willing to spend this time around, considering I just bought a grand worth of rims as well :( Wallet hates me enough already.

    • No-one in Aus/NZ would pay that much, because they remember when a turbo Skyline/Silvia was a cheap but awesome alternative to the mediocre shit sold here locally at the time. I'm sure over in USA there are enough trust fund kids who will have their R34 GTR, whatever the cost
    • I am stuck with enthusiast and very unhappy, even though Lumley, Shannons and Famous are all options, they all require a lock up garage, and my situation (basically a walled off compound from the street) is insufficient because the car is under a carport. I'm confident to resolve the situation I need to build a roller door with fascia in-front of my roller gate which is a solid opaque metal rolling gate. In any other universe moving the roller door 2 meters in-front of the garage door would still constitute the same amount of security but oh no. My insurance rates suck to the point of when I joined a market research for Enthusiast they were all surprised that I paid about 2-3x what other people were paying with Enthusiast when I asked them why their rates were so high. If I lie about having a garage, I save like $10 a month with enthusiast. (It's about $2600 p.a for 5000km of driving for a very unsustainable agreed value). Lumley has terrible reviews but @Duncan made me consider calling them when renew time came up - but their horrible reviews plus Christmas time made me... forget.
    • Not far. If all you want to do is know that they will reciprocate and move oil around a tiny bit, then a metre or so is all you need. Half metre fore and aft is enough.
    • That's the spirit!
    • It's fine. Basically if it has seized (eg due to moisture/rust in the bores) it will either break free on the starter or it won't turn....then you'll know it is freed up If it turns and doesn't start (reasonably likely) you will need to troubleshoot but most likely issue is a seized injector from moisture; same if it starts but missfires. Anything else could have happened (eg mice nibbling electricals) but the only way to find out is to close your eyes and hit the key I'd also change the fuel filter again after a few minutes of running as it may catch a heap of crap on first start
