when the stock Yoko Advans are done I will switch up to the Yoko ADO8R. Should be a good balance of grip and longevity for a DD.

), but the PSSs are great. Lightyears better than the stock Yoko Advans on the NISMO, and with 305/30/19 on the back, no traction issues... yet there will be so many in due time, hahaha.

just remember the r888 treadwear of 100 is a lie, they die QUICK.

Ya no matter what they would spin. Everything spins at least 1st and 2nd on a good day in my car at full throttle. But the RE11s would spin just from part throttle boosting around spirited. It was like having real skinny tires in the back. Its actually a lot of fun to drive... but it totally sucks when you want to have fun with the HP you paid a fortune for.

Where here's the thing.. getting your car running without spinning in first gear is nearly impossible, the only way to do that is buy new tires and run them for first 5k Miles then throw them away and buy a new set and so on..
Chalres mentioned that these cars got bad IRS configuration. I think im gonna have to disagree with that. This car is actually perfectly balanced between power and handling. I have ridden many other powerful cars and trust me, only few cars impressed me with their handling and grip rest were all dyno queen. Now, as far as IRS configuration crap. unless you're compering it with Ferrari, Porsche, Austin Martin, ETC. this car is actually well balanced (besides the fuel starvation) |

Its a good IRS, it just doesnt lend to traction with power. Corvettes, Vipers, etc, MUCH better. There is a reason you never see Z/G with appropriate 1/4 mile times, or accomplishing much of anything that involves acceleration.

FYI, got an email from Sam, and he said he'll send an update to the progress of the kits before the week ends. Said "things are moving forward nicely".
Thought I'd share! I'm getting married in the end of March... gotta get the kit installed and tuned while I've got some financial freedom! ha |
