Has anyone tried the new nitto radials??? I was going to use a mickey thompson 255/50/16 but id rather use something smaller like a 235 or 245/45

If anyone knows of a good branded radial that can cop load it'd be great..

If anyone knows who sells them it'd also be great.

cheers

I can vouch for the Hoosiers as well as being a good choice. They were cheaper than the MT's @ the time i was buying.

On an airport surface I could still manage a 1.5 60ft with them @ 30psi in the 275/17

I dropped the pressure to 20psi and next run broke a diff so i can't comment on the 60ft there but it certainly hooked up hard haha :)

yea ill be running them at all 4... il see where to get those hoosiers from cause i think the MT's are a little taller and they will go real close to my dry sump near the wheel arch...

Ive got a 4WD TH400 so i dont think ill break a diff... if i can get out of the hole with a 1.3 60ft il be wrapped.. need to hit half track at over 140mph and come home

Na, getting it caged now and I spun a bearing when I tried to turn it up to 60 pounds so I gotta get Anthony to do rings and bearings and have another go at it.. Poor engine did over 8000km on over 1000 at the treads.... Was due to break something.... I was lucky it didn't throw rods!!!

I'm just saving slowly to get this shit done so I'm in no real hurry to get it on the track cause every day out at the track is a couple of grand.

      V35 Overheat + Coolant Boil & Overflow + Engine not Starting

      By carnoobb · Posted

      Hey all, my 2004 Nissan Skyline 350GT overheated the other day with coolant boiling and leaking out of the coolant reservoir when I was parking. So today, I started it up again just to see if it was a thermostat/head gasket issue. After about 20 mins of running, temps were normal again, no coolant was leaking out and the upper reservoir hose was warm but my engine suddenly cut off. I checked the oil dipstick and cap when it was running and there was no white foamy residue and the exhaust did not have white smoke. I tried starting up the car again but it would only crank, similar to when I had a camshaft sensor issue just that now there’s no check engine light on the dash. Any ideas? Unfortunately I don’t have an OBD2 that can read the Nissan's programme.

      Rb head oil drain dimensions

      By Papichulo96 · Posted

      Bump on this to not make another post, had a ‘head drain’ leak on me and have the engine out as we speak. Planning on just putting a new freeze plug back in , plug the tapped holes and just be done with that headache.    Now I still want to relieve pressure to allow oil to pass down the blocks returns easier. I’ve seen catch cans with multiple vents help folks with this issue on this forum.  I’m wanting to make my own. I have some pictures here of my setup if anyone can help how I should plumb and design the catch can I would deeply appreciate it !   rb25 Oil upgrades: 1.0mm restrictor n1 pump/billet gears extended crank collar  extended sump with trap doors/w welded fitting

      Need AC Compressor for R32

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      The Frenchy's kit is the way to go forward. A modern compressor that weighs about 1/2 as much, is at least twice as efficient, and will do a good job on R134a. And of course the kit has everything else you need to connect it up and have it work properly.

      Need AC Compressor for R32

      By Zabuza · Posted

      Hey all , I am in the process of having the AC system in my r32 GTST converted from r12 to r134a and I’m being told my compressor has gone bad and I will need a new one. I was wondering if anybody has any suggestions for what is the best route to go aside from dropping $1500 on a new oem one? I did see that Frenchy’s performance garage offers a kit to mount a Toyota compressor, has anybody actually used this kit on their car? Or is there anywhere I could purchase just a clutch? Any help is appreciated.

      Help Understand GTT Boost Setup

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      Well, your RB20 ECU loom won't have wires for the boost solenoid, that boost sensor, and possibly one or two other things. There could be differences in seemingly random things like the charcoal canister purge solenoid, because the 25DET has to handle boost in the vacuum system and the 20DE does not. I don't know - I haven't looked. It is very likely that all the most important things are same-same, being the main sensors like AFM, CAS, etc, and the injectors and ignition. Not that you'll need the AFM for the Haltech anyway. I would suggest that you would seriously want to sit down with the pinouts for both ECUs and just go through them and highlight green what is the same, orange what is different/missing, and make a plan from there. It's not going to be difficult. It will either be the same or need to be fixed.
