What is SV Time Attack? I'm assuming it's not Redline's series?
i was running stock evo x advans on the first session, then switched to my advan a048s for the rest of the sessions... the pics w/ the silver nto3s were the street tires, and the white rotas are the racing tires

as for brake pads, im gonna get some reybestos st-43s probably.. or something comperable.. ill chat with a few people who are brake gurus when i get closer to actually purchasing the pads before i actually do

+1 for sure... various suspesion set ups, brake pad swaps, multiple wheel and tire setups for different track condiotions and all the time you spend bleeding and replacing fluids before and after track days can be physically and monetarilly exhausting. I haven't done it since I have been back in the states as I know its crack addictive but man U guys R inspiration. Nicely Done!
