Hicas and tyres

[[PIMPIN]]

thought i'd ask around to see what tyres gtr owners run on their cars and how long between changes

Also, anyone removed Hicas? Yay or nay?

Thanks guys

Falken Azenis.. depends on how often and hard u drive I guess! Mine are almost due after 1 year, but need to take it to the track before binning them.. hehehe.

Dont think i'll ever remove the Hicas, but since we're on the topic, has any R34 GTR owners have a problem with Hicas when Bass Woofer is blasted loud? Ive heard it happens with R33s...

ok, so we have the same tire. Used to have RE55S which were great in the dry were hopeless in wet weather.

Would have thought you were more a candidate for Nitto hahah

Same tire? Mine are 275.. a little wide for my liking, tramlines quite a bit, gotta always keep them well inflated, gonna swith to 265 next time.

Sorry tyres then. Mine are 265 though. Was gonna go for 285/30s but didnt fancy Falken FK452 as I already run those on my Z33 and they are only so-so.

Might get wider rims but too attached to my forged TE37s

Is it Tire or Tyre now? Im confused.. :P
TE37s are nice.. but i really like the look of Black LMGT4s on blue beasts.. hehe.. maybe later.. too much financial comitment now!

hey russ, all you have to do is paint them black :)

FYI Black LM GT4 are a limited edition item

Black LM GT4 is only for Z-tune rite?forget it, just paint it.hehe
btw, does the hicas really effect the tyre thread so much?

 

[russwestwood]

Ive seen a few black LMGT4s on non Z-tunes.. so u mean those are all painted??
Crap.. dun want lah like dat.. hehehe, probably go for gunmetal then, after kena kutuk.. keke :P

200 sets of Black LM GT4 were available sold separately to end users which 20 of them were available via the 20 units of Z-Tune.

Some of the LM GT4 may have been painted and some are original. Its hard to tell unless the information stickers are still attached to the inside of the wheel.

sorry dude, im a banker.. its hard enough having to know how to count you cant expect me to spell correctly as well

anyways, happy with the TE37s and like you, too many financial commitments too, just took delivery of my new hse last week (well not quite cause final payment due then only its mine haha)

Normally hicas is disabled to have better predictability. But i kept mine on all the time.

Toyo T1R.. 275 all round.

Don't remove the HICAS!!!!! Get it recalibrated... the main and aux position sensors on the rear steering rack should be adjusted to read 2.4V. Do this and you'll find that the HICAS works really well!

A voltmeter and some crawling under the car should sort this out for you... better if you can get hold of a Consult handheld...
