Without a cage and suspension to suit slicks, I'd stick to A048/888/Direzzas etc.

Depends on the model of Conti tbh, 'Sport Contact 3' I think I had. Truth.

In that 16" specific Cup size, the best tyre I've had for all weather was the Conti Sport Contact. They lasted well and had very very good wet grip, and I used them for an 80 mile round trip commute on A/B roads.

Cracking pics. How do the standard brakes do against the weight of the GTR?

Love it ! :clap: Reminds me of Herbie Goes to Monte Carlo. It must be an absolute PITA to get parts for?

It's not *that* tricky to do yourself, but for £84 inc VAT you can't go wrong!

That is lovely Sam. Would love to know the ballpark figure they're after!

That's pretty much exactly what it is. lol

I have the Vibratechnics silver/black ones, they're pretty stiff but ok for a daily. Would imagine the red ones are a bit much !

That's not the point. :rasp:

You mean you're adding weight to a cup? :nono:

Don't know yet ! Can't track it currently, the NSF bushes are SO bollocksed.

Nah, avatar is on 16's and Eibachs. It's now 15's and B14s. Going to be fitting new wishbones once the weather clears and want to raise the front up, I haven't even looked to see what angle the arms are currently at!

NorthloopCup So a 1*2 on standard hubs, what kind of angle should the wishbones sit at? I've had my B14's fitted a while and the chaps that fit them just wound them right down. :o

A 6th cog.

You'd be surprised I think. Julian @ Balance Motorsport has done this to a few motors, by all accounts no more lag than usual.

^ Exactly. The extra vibration at idle is negated by the fact the engine no longer sounds like it's wanting to come through the bulkhead. Gear-lever doesn't move at all now, which is a plus.

Standard mounts are chocolate, and the powerflex dogbone made no difference to me. VibraTechnics mounts ftw.

Lol! What's with the RSRs? Federal ones? I'm going for Direzza's now.

Got more info on that?

There's 3 R888 compounds? I thought there was only SG and GG?

Ta :)

That look normal to you then? lol Top mounts are the same age as the struts, 1k miles / 8 months. Everything feels tight and there's no play in anything.

They don't move, they're equal both sides, but they look a little high up to me? Car is sitting on B14s, and Bilstein OEM/Pattern top mounts. This is with the wheel sitting straight ahead.

Budget?

Haha, nailed it.

Must've been a footballers.
