  1. Cheers! Ive had 255's sit flush to the rim on the stock 19x8.0's Since 8.5 rims add 6.35mm per side to the rim width and a 265 Tyre will add 5.0mm (from 255) per side, I'm hoping it will work. But I guess first and foremost the rim itself clears suspension etc which is a start. Yours are 20x8.5's right?
  2. As the title suggests does anyone have feedback on 20x8.5 Offset 36 with 265/30r20's all round??? ie, will they clear the front suspension? I'm chasing more grip but would like to keep away from staggered so I can rotate. FG F6-310 with SSL's all round PS, my tyre guy told me many 265's fir 8.5 quite well, ie flush with rim, has anyone done this??
  3. also a bacon like smell can be an indication of ex-cop car
  4. would love to see the R-Spec enhancements (on the GT335 R-Spec) become standard in the 2014 FPV's. What the F6 needs most is grip. 350kw is more than achievable with simple tune and boost, so would be great to see those 2 enahncements with exterior and interior changes
  5. Seems to have done the trick, thanks fellas!!
  6. Thanks fellas, going to try the orange anti-squeal. will let you know if this resolves the issue.
  7. I think ive isolated an anoying rattle (only audible from inside, on slightly bumpy roards) to loose pads in the calipers. The noise doesnt occur when on brakes. You can move the pads by hand. I had a mate do this while I sat inside and it sounds like this is the culprit. So what can I do? I know there are no shims, so I assume that's a start. What aboout the clips? where can I get new ones, or can I bend them to give more tension etc
  8. Thanks fellas. Going to look into all this in the new year
  9. Thanks for the info fellas!! Heaps keen for a BiG crew cruise
  10. Can anyone recommend where to get a tune in newcaste? Also someone who is good at diagnosing an annoying rattle from passenger side front wheel area (not suspension according to Pedders & Bowers)...
  11. Has anyone had a tune done in Newcastle? Im interested but dont want to travel too much. Are there even any good workshops here?
  12. FG F6, 100% city, floggin it 50% of the time I consistently get 300kms per tank. Does that still seem high usage?
  13. not wingin bra. im comin off a 5speed fg xr6 with smooth as drive-line, so wasnt used to 6sZF and the LSD, thought it might be a probelm. settle
  14. ok thanks! so far the downshift clunk seems better now the diff bushes are fixed as does the jolt/clunk on accelerartion. BUT I assume the jolt on acceleration isnt normal?
