I was running 265 fronts also, DOT r-compound, which seems to work very well. With a lot of camber and narrower tires the contact patch might be a little too small for ultimate straight line braking.

I'm hoping to be back together by the end of the coming weekend. I've been spending DAYS chasing wires and cutting out unnecessary circuits. Here's a couple of pictures of the initial state and the current state. I wanted to relocate the harness so that it's not on the driver's side, especially the fusebox. Not for the feint of heart!

And now she's to this point -- much better!
Here's the bin of wires I cut out -- this weights 21 lbs!!!

Karlooz, how do you like the nose? Is that a GT3R clone? Getty or Mashaw?
Anyone try the new Hoosier radial slicks? I only have one day on them and still figuring out pressures. I was running them way too high. 265 front, 315 rear and even heights so it does not screw up the ABS.
