    Storing tyres

    Storing stacked one on top of each other is probally best, but as Darren said doesn't make alot of difference either way. The only thing to try and do, is to keep out of direct sunlight, as its UV rays that ages the tyres the most and hardens the rubber.

    Thanks for the response mate, I am going for a set of 18" standard wheels off of Blades Grant.

    Track day wheels

    Can anybody help me..... I have a UK 04 plate and I am looking to get a set of track day wheels/ spare wheels while my rays are being refurbished. Is the offset on the JDM standard 17" wheels enough to clear the brembo calipers? Thanks for any advice. Kings
  5. I wouldn't touch them with a barge pole, they are made by Cheng Shin a Chinese/Taiwan budget tyre manufacturer. They are quite big in motorcross Recently they have upped their advertising in this country, have done a deal with Liverpool advertising on pitchside boards at home games amongst other things.
  6. From memory in either Auto Express or Evo's tyre test they came 3rd behind Goodyear F1 and Conti Spt Cont 3. Have a look at http://www.tyrereviews.co.uk/Tyre/Vrede ... ssanta.htm for a couple of reviews. Get good write ups, although so do Uniroyal Rainsport 2's, seem to be the best tyres money can buy!!!
  7. I can get hold of Vredestein Sessantas, if you are looking to change drop me a PM as I should be able to beat camskills price on most sizes.

    Tyre Sizes...

    How much have you been quoted for the Vredesteins? I can get hold of Vredestein so I'll get you a price in the next day or so.
  9. Where abouts are you based? I might be able to help, if you haven't go it sorted yet.
  10. Would love to come along, but not going to be able to make it as im at glastonbury that weekend. Maybe if the monthly meet comes off, then I'll meet you all then.
  11. Spotted a GM Z heading north on M32 this morn about half 8ish, any one here?
  12. on a private road, my speedo read 165mph on a slight down hill stretch, does that mean my limiter has been removed? has anybody hit the limiter? or is the limiter set to GPS speed, as 165 on speedo would roughly equate to 155 GPS. Car felt very stable and planted to road at this speed.
  13. A big thank you to Sky, just taken out a new policy with them, saved me over £200 on my current insurers renewal price. Didn't think it would have gone down nearly that much being 25. Definately worth a go when your insurance is up for renewal.
  14. I reckon thay are: 1. Toyo T1R 2. B/S RE040 3. Vredestein Ssantas 4. B/S RE050A 5. Conti Spt 3
  15. Spotted a Gun metal JDM this morning on B4509 heading away from M5. was it anyone on here?
  16. I did this day last september, One of the most enjoyable days I've had!! All the cars are great, got to agree with mick43 the clios were one of my favourites. For outright grunt the XKR's were fantastic. If you don't come away grinning from ear to ear, i'll be very very suprised!!! Enjoy it.
  17. Saw 3 parked in Red Bull Racing's car park in Milton Keynes yesterday, Azure, Chilli & Gold. Is it anyone on here?
  18. P zero corsa are one of the best gripping tyres on the market. My mate has got a pair on the front of his 200sx and he has been very impressed with the level of grip they offer. the only problem you will get is they will wear quickly. I've got the new P zero on the rear of mine with P zero rosso's on the front, the rears are very grippy, a bit noisy, but not as load as the bridgestones. the p zeros are very grippy in wet and dry, they came out top in the most recent auto express tyre test. Only problem is they don't make them in the front fitment as im on standard rays.

    PS1 with PS2

    Any good tyre dealer should be able to get hold of the PS2's as they are available in this country. I would advise against gettring the PS1's as eventually the PS2's will replace the PS1's and you will have a mix of tyres again. Out of interest how much are you getting the PS2's for?
  20. I have done a sealing job with some tape to keep it air tight as a temp measure, but you're right about the cone, i'll get searching for a new one!! Cheers Chris
  21. I've got a powertec stainless steel induction kit on mine, sounds absolutely brilliant, but the rubber/silicone shoulder joints that are supplies seem very cheap as one has split and although the filter is stainless steel it is starting to rust!!! Has anyone else got a stainless steel one on their Z?
  22. Hoff, i'll have to check but i'm pretty sure i'll be up for that.
  23. Nice to speak to you too mate, and your exhaust sounded the nuts!! You've now put changing the exhaust on mine far higher up my mods list!!! Definately going to be doing another track day, haven't decided which one I want to try. Have you been either Keevil or Colerne?
