    Furry muff, i ran them on my XR2i but due to the camber they shredded the inner edges in less than 3k which i was gutted about, so be prepared to lose the rears on yours in somewhere similar

    There's one around me that's turboed and slammed on its ****. Looks awesome and sounds sooooooooooooooooo nice.

    Good buy.

    Very nice that Leeeeeee

    Just to add, there is a JRSC kit for sale on CTRO right now

    As for tyres, OE is potenza RE040

    Jap spec RE040s are awesome, UK RE040s are toss.

    I have them, they are getting trashed as fast as possible!
    Falken 452s are apparently very good for these, I will consider them next if I dont go for A048s

    Cheers Stoo.

    It has the Falken 452's on the back so might leave them and just change the fronts.

    I love the difference the ECU makes, makes the car far better to drive as power is much smoother and available much lower down!!

    452s are apparently real good, very stiff sidewalls compared to the T1Rs

    K100 is ace! AND it gives you better MPG if the part throttle maps are good.
    I have the K-Pro, same thing but i can plug my laptop in and datalog/tweak the map....

    I've managed 320 miles to a tank doing mixed driving which is better than I expected.

    Been told it will need a new clutch soon so that will be a fun job. Its on 106k miles now!!
