£200 then!? I just want rid without the hassle of putting them on eBay. Surely someone on here does track days?

These must be worth something to someone! I just need them out of the way now, £300 posted ono?

I'm open to sensible offers? I want to avoid putting them on eBay.

Hi guys, I'm having a garage clear out and after selling my zed I still have the old Track day wheels and tyres I used. They are standard 18 inch 350z alloys with Toyo R888 tyres on them. These in my opinion are the best track day tyres you can get. just the tyres alone took almost 8 seconds off my time around Oulton Park. The two front tyres are 235/40ZR18 91Y, the rears are 255/35/ZR18 94Y. I have used these for 3 trackdays now and they still have 2.-3mm of tread left on each tyre. I will get the exact measurements tonight and update. One of the tyres has a puncture repair which happened when they were brand new some numpty in the pits left some bits on the floor and I ran over this. Since the repair I have done 3 trackdays and this has not been an issue at all. The wheels are balanced and ready to go so if anyone is in to doing trackdays this are the perfect tyre to use. I am looking for £400 + £50 postage or these can be collected from the Warrington area, alternatively you can arrange postage yourself. Please let me know if you have any queries. Cheers

Cheers, I thought it had just discolored! Mods can you please lock this untill I have this sorted? Cheers

Gents I have a few tyres I have left over on my garage. I would prefer collection from North Warrington of all the below but I can post if needed. The first set are Toyo Proxes R888's, these are brilliant track day tyres, They are size 225/40/ZR18. I have used then in a number of cars for around 8 years now on different track days and they are incredible. The grip will transform the handling of any car. These are in a used condition, one tyre has 1.0 -1.5mm of tread the second has 1.5 - 2.0mm. These will be good for 1-2 track days depending on how you drive. These are road legal tyres but I would not advise it, also one is below the legal limit now. I am looking for £60 + £30 delivery Please see pictures below: The second set are Bridgestone Potenza RE040's, size 225/45/R18, these are great all round tyres, I use these on the road and they are great all year round. Both tyres have 3.5 - 4.0mm of tread left on them, when I was taking the pictures I have found a small nail in the centre of the tyre (see photo), this is dead centre so this would be an easy repair. I am looking for £40 + £30 delivery Please see pictures below: Please let me know if you have any queries. Cheers Andy

Howdo Gents! I am working on putting my car back to standard so I am getting shot of my Japspeed K2. I bought this about 8 months back for £329 directly from japspeed. It gives a great tone higher up the revs and does not drone as much as the K1 on motorways and general driving. I am looking for £150 or £50 plus a standard exhaust (in good condition). Collection will be from the North Warrington area I can post but this will be at a cost of £35 due to the size. Please see pictures below and let me know if you have any queries, Cheers Andy

I have no idea, I did a track day at oulton park and at the end of the day they were just a weird brown colour. When I stripped them down I was expecting the seals to be melted but they were fine. I did a full rebuild on them regardless. I bought a torque wrench from machine mart about 8-9 years back, it was a clarke one, it cost me £22 and it still works perfectly today. My old man got a halfords Pro one for around £80-£90 and it lasted around 12-18 months before it packed in!

Ive read that in a few places but I would prefer to strip it right down and replace all seals. With the caliper overheating and changed to a lovely shade of brown I wanted to make sire there was no damage anywhere. It took a while but I managed to source the internal O ring directly from Brembo. I torqued them up to 75Nm and they are doing great so far, Iv covered about 150 miles so far and they are spot on (so far). Iv just fitted some DS3000, so hopefully they will fend well at Cadwell Park in a few weeks.

They are 80mm decals for the front, I have just refurbished my calipers: I got them from ebay, see link to follow: http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/281241597404?ru=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.ebay.co.uk%2Fsch%2Fi.html%3F_sacat%3D0%26_from%3DR40%26_nkw%3D281241597404%26_rdc%3D1 I am not sure about the rears though, I think they are 60mm but I cant be sure.

Will do, cheers.

Just an update, I have pulled apart the diff again and I have found the backlash to be way out, I need to get a dial gauge on it but it looks to be about 2mm rather than the 0.10 to 0.15 mm. So I need to increase the shim size on the pinion. I am not sure on the size needed though. Does anyone know of a backlash to shim chart, or is it as simple as 1mm of backlash is 1mm of shim size? Cheers guys!

PM replied!

Cheers Darren but the Y pipe is fine, I just want the Y-piece down back to the standard exhaust.
