Cheers guys.
Yeah its not to bad .
My brakes went on the first session out though so had to take it a little easier through the rest of the day . was still a really good day though.
I think im going to be getting some track wheels though as it likes to under steer as well.
Cheers Jon

Great pics. Yeah the Rainsport 2's do let go once they are over heated. What about some uprated ARB's and/or polybush to help with understeer?

cheers mate.
yeah it did seem to be worse once done a few laps . Im thinking the stretched tyres might of caused over steer as well ?
its fully polybushed already mate . Would uprated ARB'S make much difference ?

Ahh cool your list didnt say about polybush. I installed my polybushes and ARB's at the same time so I dont know what the incremental difference would be, but I do know that I dont get that much understeer. But I do have semi slick tyres as well :?

Up rated ARB's will keep your tyres more firmly planted though.


Are you looking to get new wheels and tyres for the track or just tyres? I have been eyeing up the Federal 595-RSR's, they are quite a bit cheaper than R888's or AD08's.

Must of missed that out :oops:
I suppose all those parts installed together made a big difference together.
I may have to look in to uprated ARB's .What ones do you have ? probably try that first and see how it goes.
i was planning on wheels and tyres but unsure as to what size to get . Yeah the R888's and AD08's are a fair bit of money now but they both seem to be really good. i mite have a read up on those tyres if they save a bit of money .
