    Video soon.

    Picked up some new used tires for the rabbit. Got the coilovers in and the brakes installed. This car is about finished mechanically.

    They don't look like it, but if I'm reading that right the treadwear rating is only 40. So like R comp sticky.

    What the eff are those Chuck?

    Those are Goodyear ZR gatorbacks of some sort. Popular in the early 90's. At this point, I would expect those to be harder than a all-season.

    From the early 90's? Yeah... Most likely totally useless now.

    Treadware = 40. They are full tread race tires.

    We ended up maxing out the WG spring (and the map sensor). For me to go for more we would need to change the WG spring out for something that would raise the least amount of boost I could run over 8lbs (not sure I want to do that yet). The turbo will spool much faster when the low end timing is added back in and the turbo is broken in.
