bridgestone tires are very expensive. Think yoko are quite alright for the rpice u pay.

It was fun....let's do it again. Hope to get more laps the next time round. Dunno why everytime I go out...kena red flag after 2 laps.

Absolutely stock setting from tyres down to the camber and everything else. NOthing change from the factory defaulted setting except a whiteline swaybar and this thing works wonder to reduce body roll of our car.

Im guessin they are running those R3 modified Campro..like the one iread before..1.6litres 200hp++ engine.

wah macam B16c ..not bad R3 keep it up!

for that sg 8 got vacuum leak.nice knowing you.
same goes to all the 8's that came from sg and anywhere in malaysia ^^.Thanks for participating.

I love Boony's rims! they're the bomb..bling-bling factor 10/10
so is a black rx8 with prodrive rims..also cekapppp

but em..i was wondering..why all our 8 sound so .. "soft".
even that gReedy'ed 8 also a bit "soft",so does wood's HKS Legamax'ed car.Doesnt live up to expectation.

heck,even those Alfa 156's sound better on track,any reasonable explaination why our exhaust notes arent so good?
