I need to make up some straight pipes for Hamish to approve :P

Maybe then I won't hear my NT05s.. nah but srsly loud with 4 of them on, I might go back to stockies soon for some super happy powerskid action the problem is the car is too low then and scrapes :(

So how much would I be looking at for a locallly bought set of NT05's in 265/35/18 or 255/40?35?/18

I've just chucked my 17's on the back, I don't really want to be rolling for too long with mismatched wheels :P Was hoping to drop off the rims this week somewhere, then pick up later in this week,,,

Don't really want to go anywhere over $275 / tyre... So "AD08 territory tyres" are out, no good for a daily anywhere with their wear rating...

IMO, steer clear of anything remotely soft compound.

I had a set of bridgestone ER300's that I was very happy with grip wise, and lasted 60,000kms. chuck em on the 17s for cheap and save the 18s for DECA or possible track days?

Nitto NT05 on a 265/35/18 would be just under $300

Nitto/Toyo are from the same factory people think its the same compound as the Toyo couterpart with a different pattern

In saying that I currently run Nitto Invo didn't last that long...

Funnily enough I'm thinking RS-R for my next set if I have no monies :P

Yeah I'm trying to save some cash, so think I'll just be dropping the rims into OTR for some new RSR... was just wondering if there was anything else for the same price with as much bang for buck

It takes me 6 months to do 5000km. That's also how long a set of federal rsr tyres on the back of the skyline lasted, fronts could near on do 20000km.

I have 60 treadwear for the track, 400 for the street.

1) Can I book a test drive? 2) I have enquiry regarding price. 3) Can I please have more information on service history? 4) Hi, Just viewed your listing and will like to purchase it. can you advice on how long you have had the vehicle, why you are selling it, has it ever been damaged, what condition is it in, will it meet a RWC, does it have any bad habits and your final price? I will be Glad if you can send me some pictures.. Kindly get back to me as soon as possible. Awaits your response Steven


Can I please have more information on service history? Please kindly advice on the final price and the present condition...

Interested in your listing,can you send more pictures(insideespecially) to martianlabelle(at)gmail(dot)com.Regards


^ Enquiries about a car I have for sale on drive.com.au, are these scam replies or legit do you think? If scam, what blipped on your scam radars?

Car is a 2006 Alfa Romea GT Selespeed

The T1R would be the NT05 equivalent. Tthe Toyo R1R is a much better tyre. Has as much dry grip, but better in the wet and quieter/smoother if it's your daily driver too,

is that all from the same person? sounded like you put a bunch of inquiries into a list... but sounds like a pretty standard response from when selling my car. that or "will u swap 4 R33 skyline??" or "ill give you $1000"

    • Update: Tunehouse looked into the problem and identified a wiring issue between the camera unit and the connector. They managed to get it working , but did warn me at some point it will stop working again. From their perspective it is unserviceable and will need replacement. They did some research and found that the new replacement camera would be Approx $1400 supply only (their fitting cost would be $190) . They did provide the part number (28442-JL05B) and a quick google of the part number shows that these are rather expensive brand new (seemingly no longer in manufacture) for the places that still have them in stock, with the used option potentially presenting  the same issue down the track at some unknown point. They are happy for me to supply the part so that they can fit it. Decisions, decisions... I can definitely recommend Tunehouse (thankyou Vee37!). Cost for the diagnosis was as quoted  ($190) , car was ready on time and communication was top notch. Their workshop is super clean and modern, and there was plenty of car candy parked out the front on the day I went.   Would definitely go back.   
    • to fix the voltage drop issue I swapped out the old 150amp alternator which turns out is a brand known for having issues and replaced it with the black 180amp alternator beside it 
    • For anyone interested, the Way Back Machine has that Japanese website archived with pictures, etc: https://web.archive.org/web/20051023225805fw_/http://www.a31cefiro.com/air_con.htm "Simply swapping the wiring of the harness will not allow it to function properly. For the outdoor air sensor and sunlight sensor, disconnect the wiring connected to CN1-11 of the air conditioning harness from the harness and connect the sensor side wiring to earth. For the indoor air sensor, disconnect the wiring connected to CN2-3 of the air conditioning harness from the harness and connect the sensor side wiring to earth. The connector PIN numbers listed here are the genuine A31 PIN numbers. To avoid incorrect wiring, check with a tester before wiring. Also, disconnect the wiring in a location close to the sensor. The disconnected harness side wiring will not be used, so be sure to insulate it." Wish someone sold a conversion harness to just plug-and-play a Kouki 180sx digital climate control into C33/A31. I'm decent with wiring but feeling kinda lazy about taking this on. Edit: Did some more digging and found a helpful Minkara blog post about the conversion as well: https://minkara.carview.co.jp/userid/1831116/car/1360568/2284209/note.aspx "After installation is complete or the battery is replaced, you need to go into self-diagnosis mode and set the internal air recirculation. The way to do it is to "hold OFF with the key on for more than 5 seconds, set the number to 5, then press 卍→C." ↑↑↑It probably won't make sense unless you actually try it (・∀・)." Lol wtf
