Im thinking of getting Michelin Pilot Super Sports actually. But tyres here in Australia are so damn expensive that most of us get them over the internet and have it delivered. Much cheaper

I would go for the Pilot Super sport, worth the money IMO and much better macthed the power of your car  :drinking:

Front and rear rotors (OEM size. 345x30 front, 312x22 rear) and Remsa brake pads arrived along with some Penrite DOT 4 brake fluid.

Didnt want to opt for slotted rotors such as stoptechs or DBA's as I'll most likely be going 2pc slotted rotors anyway when i get my BBKs so these will do for now. Rotors are pretty much shot and are squealing more than a japanese porn video

Will be installing these soon but also going to have a chat with John from VSPORT to see how much slotting these rotors will cost. If its too expensive then i'll scrap the idea.

EGT and Oil Pressure gauge to be installed as well

Rotors and Pads installed. No more squeals, no more tears! Love the new pads. Very minimal brake dust, same OEM bite and now with the rotors, the R is stopping very well!

Went to a dyno day at Port Hacking Automotive on their mainline dyno. Great day out and was a chance to meet some new people and get the car on the rollers to see how much power its now putting out now that I've done pretty much all I can do bolt-on wise without having the need to change internals or get a bigger turbo etc.

In the end, pretty happy with the results and as it stands, plenty enough power for me as a daily.

AFR is missing as it didnt print out for whatever reason, however it remained steady at 11, so pretty content with that.
