No way mate........... it's got sooooo much grip I've been gob smacked at how it gets it to the ground.........totally disspells all the myths I thought were true of front wheel drive. Just for the record 235x35x18s on it all round..... widened the track of the car by 110mm. Am changing suspension and uprights to DC5 ones as they're naturally wider so it'll help reset the suspension back to ideal setup. Using wider offset rims will work as we've done, but I want it to handle well too.....

I have widened the rubber a little from factory, but even factory setup was mad..........certainly on a lot of little NZ roads it's as quick as the GTR for sure..........huge corner speed.

That chrome finish is bloody expensive and bloody fiddly to get right.........we didn't get it right, but got close.......too expensive to keep trying !!
