ste91 Posted December 30, 2009 Share Posted December 30, 2009 Uniroyal Rainsports mate. the roads are fairly shocking to be fair, and the tires are probably due for replacement anyway, but i was assuming that tread meant grip, silly me lol. they may well be like 4 years old, but they seem in good nick, ah well, simple fix nonetheless.Phil. :) A 4 year old set of tyres? How? I trashed a set of T1R's in under 4 months. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Nanglebadger Posted December 30, 2009 Author Share Posted December 30, 2009 because they are hard as nails mate! seriously, i've simply had no cause to replace them, they have handled every weather condition thats been thrown at them, guess they are just past their best now lol!Phil.

Liam_D Posted December 30, 2009 Share Posted December 30, 2009 Glad it wasnt all bad news from the garage Phillip As for tyres, i would just get a fresh set of Uniroyals and let them settle in, and you should have some grip again!!! Failing that get some Goodyear F1 Assimetrics dude if they lose grip ill eat my own Head Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Nanglebadger Posted January 6, 2010 Author Share Posted January 6, 2010 alrighty then, thanks to Mark (Pandamonium) today saw the rev counter moved and the boost gauge mounted. fair bit of wire cutting and soldering requried, and WeeJohn will be required to make the rev counter work again and to light up, but at least now the boost gauge is somewhere i can see it! also trying to get an Apexi boost gauge off iamlegend, been searching for a mint one of these, same as Bildo's, for MONTHS!gotta get used to the change of layout on the dash after so many years, but change is progress! will get photees soon.Phil.
