I got them in a 255/40/R17

2 laps in and they were just spinning in every corner.

that's with 180kw at that!

I'm currently running at about 250-260rwkw with a nice smooth power curve so nothing really comes on too hard too fast, and the car does mostly street driving. I'm really happy with them because of their bang for buck ratio and their cold grip which is where I mostly use them. If I was taking it to the track then I wouldn't be using them, because as you say, they go off after a few hot laps and need to cool down.

They do smoke nicely at deca though ;)

Using the basketball court for a motorkhana circuit instead of the megamini, tyres do not like it very much...

Also, need rear camber arms :/

tried to claim me some centerlink yesterday.

apparently i earn to much or someshit, but every little helps. have to take the visa in and see what they say.

Im pretty sure Centrelink payments are exclusive to GTR owners only now

Sorry brah

nice nankangs bro...My cressy rolls on nankangs :P

My plan was... Nankangs on the 17's for pottering about, Stickies on the 18's for track grip...

Though it seems whenever it goes to DECA or Track the 18's go on, and then don't come back off for street driving because the BBS's look better than the AVS's.

*sigh* so it looks like I need to wait up to 4 weeks before my car is repaired again. The parts have been ordered from Nissan Australia and that's the estimate they gave to the repair shop.

Anyone ordered from Nissan Australia before? How long did it take?

Sounds about right.

Smaller parts will get here sooner.

What happened to the car? What parts take a month to acquire? Gotta be coming from JP at that timespan...

Was involved in a rear end collision. Rear bumper, 2 rear reverse lights, the back panel and a few others I think. Yep they are coming from Japan, I'm hoping it is more like 2 weeks delivery.

In the meantime spend your petrol money on alcohol, hookers, bet on black, buy crack, and moar alcohol

    • Yes.  The only scenario I can imagine when the answer isn't yes, is if you drive like there is highway patrol behind you at all times.  If your car currently runs, enjoy it and keep saving. Better costs more, keep saving until you can budget the better ECU. It's worth it.  Nope. Plenty of us making >300kw on unopened motors. Mine is unopened and makes about 350kw if I turn everything up, its fine (lots of caveats here, how the car will be used/abused, how long you expect the engine to last between rebuilds, how has the engine been maintained prior to coming into your ownership, etc etc).   
    • Sorry just wanting to clarify, at this power goal, which should I be going? Also, More info regarding suspension, the rear upper camber arms were used to get the camber back to i believe around -0.5 ~ -1 degree (@ Road and Race in Rydalmere), I forgot the exact figure, but ALOT less camber than what it came originally which was like -2.5degrees. Are the traction arms still recommended? The bilsteins from SydneyKid, they've got 400lb/in fronts & 275/in in the rear, revalved to his specs. Intercooler, I'm just having a look at some on Rakuten.jp and some other japanese sites. Might get something from back there, GReddy, Blitz or HPI, all crossflow. Looking at roughly $450-$500 AUD + shipping... Theres not many choices except that chinese branded Justjap unless you go for blitz return flow. Yeah, only downside with Haltech is the price ahhaha, so expensive, and with all the sensors if I go that route... $$$$$ yeesh. Are headstuds/gaskets needed for <300akw?
    • Haltech fanboi reporting in. Buy the Haltech! 
    • You can try shoving a borescope down there to see what's up.
    • I could see someone trying this to save money on oil changes.
