My only question is..

Why are there no vids of you walking GT-Rs at highway speeds? I'm very interested to see how that will be.

* I do NOT in any way condone street racing whatsoever. :icon14:

Ran into a problem with the tires. I am mystified.

I have the 305's mounted both say outside and outside but when you look at them the tread's go in opposite directions?? Do you think I have 2 Left side tires??

Left Tire

Right Tire- But I would have to rotate it to get the rove lines on the inside then the treads would go opposite directions......:mad:

if the indeed have "outside" written on them, then they should be asymmetric

vipor

03-17-2010 11:42 AM

My tires (stock Yokos) are directional and have an "outside"

yoko advan sports are asymmetrical as well...

FuszNissan

03-17-2010 11:44 AM

so is this normal to have pattern in opposite direction

Caravanshaka

03-17-2010 11:47 AM

you have RE-11's right? then they are asymmetrical per bridgestone and as long as you mounted the outside part of the tire towards the face of the wheel you are goldne.

FuszNissan

03-17-2010 11:48 AM

So weird. It's screwing with my mind...lol Yeah there RE-11's

semtex

03-17-2010 11:56 AM

Both tires are facing forward? Like we're looking at them from behind their direction of rotation?

FuszNissan

03-17-2010 12:01 PM

No I haven't spun one, just saying then the tread groves go the opposite way.

Caravanshaka

03-17-2010 12:04 PM

ok, look at this picture:

http://www.driftking.net/re11/P1060086-mid.jpg

see how the angled grooves are on the outside part of each wheel, that is how yours should be.

FuszNissan

03-17-2010 12:05 PM

Looks fine then. Just threw me the way the groves would cut opposite directions one rotated the right way

Caravanshaka

03-17-2010 12:08 PM

ya, they are a little weird that way, but according to their site they are asymmetrical and that is the correct way to mount them.

FuszNissan

03-17-2010 12:15 PM

Yeah, I am so used to directional, it just threw me for a loop looking at them. I was like wait a minute they are both Left side rear tires. Learn something new everyday.

semtex

03-17-2010 12:16 PM

Michelin PS2s are the same way if that makes you feel any better.

FuszNissan

03-17-2010 12:25 PM

Just me being OCD.

GoPro camera needs to be delivered first.

BCZ - It's great. Smooth and precise. The power isn't crazy unless you really want it. As far as DD it's perfect. You want just smooth power just drive it normal, you want power just go WOT, and hold on.

Wheel slip is there in 1st and 2nd at WOT in lower RPM's other than that it's good.

It's a blast!

absolutely sick, are you going to track this thing anytime soon? You need to make a road test video, i think I am the 100th person to ask for it now.:happydance:

My only beef is that the injectors are a little more noisy than the stock injectors(if you can believe that). I have to say I enjoy the upgraded clutch and flywheel feels, much better than the stock set up. Feels great, can't really tell by feel that it's forced inducted. Drives like a normal Z with a little more noise's going on. But feels great for DD. I can't wait for the weather to get better so I can feel some power. The gauges are sick! I had no idea how big the displays were, until I got in the car, I find myself staring at them all the time. Well these are my cliff notes so far.
