Shockworks are going well. Like it is on rails. I am yet to mess around with the settings though. I feel that I may need to make sure that they are setup right, but I want to give Brett a Call.

I am sure that the guys at Malaga suspension left it as is an that was meant for the GT.

You free for a drive on Saturday night?

Ahh damn afraid not I have a BBQ on sat night. Maybe next time? Not sure you could ever get a falcon cornering like this thing, lighter flatter car.. but if I could get anywhere close I'd be pretty happy.! Was ridiculous

Very harsh ride though

You know it!

-Car's booked in for clean up work Monday, gonna leave it there for a few days to get as much stuff fixed as they can (they better do a good job, trying a new mob near car hire in Midland so it's very convenient on the way to work in the morning)

-Also booked for exhaust leak fixing (hopefully) and welding of bung for AFR reader I'm buying from our WA mod

-4x Invos ordered from Taleb Tyres, $936 delivered

-Scrutineering on 28th, gonna rock the windscreen banner from then until I get bored of it after the event

I also want to upgrade the intank pump to one of those KPM units that they claim work until 5L of fuel or less in tank so I can worry less about fuel levels but opinions are divided on the units and I should be saving money anyway.

IH8TOADS is entered but has a wedding the night before so probably won't make it.

Brad Frost (frostyboy) is entered in his 500rwkw or something manual

Justin/Warchild is entered, manual black Typhoon, good power but I forget how much

Chris/mummba in his FG F6 bull$hit power manual that eats R35s

I think that's everyone from this forum, Josh possibly too in an R35 if he's going again this year, I know he drives one of those now

They were ok for me (245/40/18). Spun top of 1st and sometimes 2nd...stock tune though. I didnt keep them long enough to let you know about wet wheather conditions (they came from dealership on OEM rims which I changed pretty much straight away).

If you shop around the Ku39s are around that price too (some places will jipp you though cause its supposed to be kumhos 'premium' tyre lol). Only got them in fronts...but Bomber seems to be enjoying them all round on his car. I might try them on rears when the goodyears wear out.

Invos are slightly more too....but apparently grip only lasts 10,000kms.

Good luck hench bloke! :P

I forgot to mention my budgets around 200 so it doesn't give me much selection of prem'o tyres, I can squeeze to 220 as my absoloute max but the missus is gonna let me know about it.

ideally want a long lasting tyre over maximum grip.

should really go a smaller rim but I like the lux pack 19s I have :(.

cheers bud

Yeah forgot 19s have a slight premium. The ku39s were $210 delivered....then $30 to fit & balance...so just over the budget.

The maxxis will last a while....atr2s will last ages I'm pretty sure but apparently subpar in the wet. Stever should offer good opinion on those

The maxxis have good online reputation for BFYB. So should be right lol

Steve has ordered Nitto Invo's for all 4 corners. That should say something about the ATR Sport 2 tyres.

The ATR Sport 2 Tyres are good for dry conditions. Do not use them in winter especially in the rain!!!!

I can not give my opinion on the Maxxis.
