maybe try advan db/advan sport depending if comfort/low nvh or performance is a priority.if wet grip is of higher priority, consider upsizing and get something like michelin ps3/goodyear eagle f1 as2/nitto invo

QUOTE(iguana_tan @ Mar 11 2014, 10:17 AM) it's to reduce/prevent heat expansion of the hose (stock rubber hoses expands quite easily) so that when you're cooking your brakes over 200-300 Celcius or more, the braking feel is still linear and won't feel spongy.this is what most people won't deal with and to them the cable tie would most likely have zero effect A secondary effect is to reduce/prevent the expansion rate of the rubber as it ages. this is evident comparing Vyraz 's car and mine as his is on 90k km/3+ years iinm? and the hoses are about 10-20% thicker than mine and feels a bit spongy/soft while mine is stiffer. this is what most people may be interested if they intend to keep the car and never sell it (at least 3-5 or more years of usage, considering the hose did got expanded slightly about 3+ years of time) of course yeah, you CAN use steel braided brake hoses which are MUCH BETTER however the going price for inspira/lancers for such hose kits are between 500-1k+ iinm. http://www.thousand.com.my/index.php?m=pro...D=101&proID=302 (RRP RM580) the cable tie costed rm50/100 pieces via ace hardware (supposedly high temp high strength outdoor usage etc fancy american shit but made in china lel), we used 260+ for 4 wheels. =edit= to add in, yes i have steel braided for my iswara which are also from IMP and i really like the responsive braking feel. although honestly i only replaced them because the iswara was 12-13 years (at that time) old, and the brake hoses were pretty fat and the outer rubber were already flaky/cracking which could be a potential safety issue especially i do cook the iswara brakes to over 350 Celsius (or more) This post has been edited by Quazacolt: Mar 11 2014, 01:39 PM |

QUOTE(mytmnet @ Mar 11 2014, 12:56 PM) definitely.=edit to clarify= but eh, even the rubber hose can easily last 5-10 years so... as T630 pointed out, durability is not the reason for going steel braided This post has been edited by Quazacolt: Mar 11 2014, 01:47 PM |

QUOTE(Kirie @ Mar 11 2014, 11:43 PM) This clubman series using stock absorber mounting? Afaik, this series is recommended to be serviced for every 30k km for normal usage..normally how much the service cost? iinm custom mount; and just in case before you kena shot, it won't affect strut bar Thanks iinm (from a friend who's a RCS owner), 20k km or 1 year service whichever first. there were talks about prolonging the first service as the seals/condition etc are new, after first service then the seals won't be so perfect and the absorber may degrade faster (probably why rcs recommended such short service intervals to ensure the absorbers are always in tip top condition) service cost around 350 each for front, 250 each for rear (omg |
