Mark unless you're planning on tracking your car, the Continental RFT's should be more than adequate for you. If you are tracking, then keep those and get a second set of rims and tyres. The brakes aren't bad, I just find they lack in feel somewhat.
I'm with Spikey, I'm not touching any of the first gen boost controllers. |

yea, to fit the quads lol
there's quite a few stage 1 plug and play piggy back type tunes. would be interesting down the track to see if there'll be a cobb tune and outputs from other flash tunes |

As for the stage 1 tunes, Looking at the available information they seem relatively conservative for the N20 so it does not worry me too much,.. unless you all have experienced or heard different? |

As for the tune, I don't like tunes that fiddle with boost without addressing timing. It's too much of a blunt instrument for my liking, but each to their own. I expect there are many happy customers. |

the reason why tyrerack cant send certain tyres to AUS is because of the compliance in AUS. I cant remember how exactly it was done, but some friends use to state that it was purely for track. maybe worth a shot

I think some manufacturers (e.g. Michelin) have come down on them to protect their market pricing here also.

I'll probably start using a freight forwarder if tirerack can't ship direct. Would love to support local businesses here, but the prices are so far apart it's ridiculous.
