Good things for a "street tyre"...plenty of grip "once they warm up"...  |
Super Autobacs and the likes make Repco etc look like crazy clarks. The shops are bloody great. Walk in buy an R35 titanium exhaust off of the shelf, or a set of Rays wheels, the Japanese dont dick about with cars, everything has to work and work well. I could have spent hours in there looking about.
