  1. Medium compound. Looks like i jumped the gun on them tyres, Maybe they just needed a good clean up, I took it for a good run up the motorway last night, not much boost but did about 10 mile at a decent rate of speed then put the car away. Ive just been out in it now and they are pretty good, I can lay all the power down in 3rd gear onwards easy, 2nd gear was doing pretty well an all, a little wheel spin but not to bad, still prefer R888's but at least they was not a total loss of money.
  2. Yeah his car started life as a UK auto, i think he will want to sell as a full kit though tbh.
  3. Thought the box was ok? Saw Noel today, he is still planning to break his supra, he has 6 speed box and UK auto diff.
  4. Terrible tyres, seems they may need some heat cycles in them to work right, wish id stayed R888, cant go wrong with them.
  5. Get them hot and let them cool down again? ive only done about 4 miles on them, no boost yet, they are that bad at the min its almost impossible to pull away in a straight line off boost, like driving on ice.
  6. Sounds like a load of agro, R888's are amazing the second they are fitted.
  7. Terrible tyre, give no grip what so ever on the street, i can only think they have to get very hot before they will work, im trying to get my money back from Kumho.
  8. Them kumho v70 track tyres are a load of rubbish, id even say they are dangerous, trying to get my money back from Kumho. Some good news is the car flew though a MOT today, just had to put the big plate back on the front.
  9. It does look the best option for you. Padlock won't stop anyone getting inside, they would just cut the fabric if they wanted in.
  10. Unless you are going to be running over 2bar it dont look like its worth changing to me.
  11. Sounds ok, how much and where about are you Andrew?
  12. I will have a look tomorrow, im picking up a few bits of carbon sheet off him myself.
  13. Yeah, my arches are kevlar/carbon sandwich.
  14. Lol, will tell him you are trying to give him money.
  15. Im going to see Noel for breakfast tomorrow if you need any "stuff" picking up?
