^^ pretty sure I can do that day, just need to check with the boss and the 1 year old boss, tough getting used to 2 bosses in the house now
just remembered there is a Porsche club super sprint on the north circuit on the 24th September, I love the hump on the back straight of the north circuit, things can get a little loose

Thanks, hoping to go quicker as I made a few little mistakes...
Thanks - Yes I saw that also...Car ECU is 100% stock (about to get a tune) but you can over-rev in-between shifts I believe. No expert but will run an over-rev report to check...

I think I'm going to bite the bullet on a set of Koya's. The price is just too attractive to ignore.
Charlie / Warwick - just confirming at least one of you runs after-market toe links and that their is no rubbing running the 11s? And that there is no clearance issues with the front brakes.
Was there a reason you went 8.5 front rather than 9s?
I already have a set of 19's in 8.5f/10r but the fronts I have are just too tight on brake clearance for my liking (especially given they are track wheels) and the rears being 10's don't fit the 295 Hoosiers well at all (the tyres actually go flat when the presures drop to cold over-night as I think the seals break. They hold fine when hot / up to +20psi pressure).

Ordered set of Koyas 19x8.5 ET45 & 19x11 ET50 (apparently Ross was under the impression there was more room at the rear from 19x11 ET47 he had done previously). This was not the case. 19x11 ET50 hit my rear toe links (I have the upgraded ones for more camber). Sent Ross the pictures of where it was hitting, he ordered me a new set at 19x11 ET46 (I wanted ET46 over ET47 just to be extra safe). I test fitted them last night before I swapped the rubber over to the new rears, hand spun the wheels, checked everything and it just cleared. I swapped the rubber over today and will test drive the tomorrow to make sure under load it doesn't hit any components but looks good. Give Ross @ Rolling Stock - http://www.rollingstock.net.au - a call or message, champion guy and he wore all the cost of replacing the rears because of his mistake. No questions asked.
First pic is ET50, you can see it touching the toe links. Heard the scraping when I took it out of the garage. Straight back in I went. Second is ET46, you can see how small the gap is between the toe link. ET47 would just clear or clear the metal but take the powdercoat off. Third is how far the ET46 sits out from the guards. It is only 4mm more than stock and lots of people are running ET44-47 for track wheels so wont be any issue for fender clearance.

I'm running RSS rear links and 47 ET with no scraping. (look up some of my detailed posts and photos). I should have ordered 9" fronts. I may get another set of Koya's next year as they cost less than a set of tyres anyway and the fronts would be 9's. I have a set Hoosiers lying around!
Also, would be interested in seeing a pic of how close your 19x11 ET47 are to your toe links. You mentioned previously you were going to go ET50 on the rear for your next set, but ET50 hit my RSS toe links as my pictures above and ET46 just cleared. Interesting to see if different cars vary that much.
You going to the PCNSW Wakefield Day next weekend?

I will trial fit mine today and report. I have the TPC toe links fitted...I have the 11 rears with 47 offset..

Koya don't make the SF in a 19x9. Either 19x8.5 or 9.5. I asked when I was buying my set.

Great, see you there.

Mine have plenty of clearance...and they are 45mm offset.
Which wheel nuts do you guys use, theirs or Porsche ones? Also which way are you fitting the hub ring?
Thoughts?
