This is a £60 tyre, this is a £100 tyre and THIS is a £150 track tyre. We’re going to do some laps on each tyre to see which gains us the most time for the money.
Here are three sets of tyres, a budget set, a premium set and some semi-slick track tyres. We're going to do some laps on each of these tyres - to see which gain us the most time for the money. We’re trying to beat a supercar with just £15,000.
Last time out we fitted a set of BC Racing coilovers which really exposed how bad our old tyres are. In this episode, we’ll compare an eco tyre, a performance tyre and a track tyre to figure out which one we should go with. Let’s look at what we’ve got.

Super happy with your tire choice!! If you are doing brakes next, please for the love of god don’t but a big Brembo brake kit. Big brakes only help with heat dissipation, letting you get full performance lap after lap. If you’re only doing a few laps, get some quality fluid and track pads, like carbotech xp24s. Will squeal really loudly below 300 degrees but when warm, they quiet down and BITE

A bbk with opposed piston calipers makes a huge difference to pedal feel and confidence, so you can modulate better and trail brake for longer. Its not just about heat dissipation.
@liam14452 Жыл бұрын
Larger brake disk means the pads have more leverage to stop the wheel which means more braking force…
@turbo_brian Жыл бұрын
You can most likely get enough braking torque from the stock caliper to lock up the wheels, aka the maximum braking torque you can use. Even those grippy tires can still be locked up most likely. An aggressive pad compound and a quality rotor is all thats needed. Centric 125 series high carbon rotors and hawk hp + pads would be my recommendation if available.
@vr6one Жыл бұрын
They can't focus too much on braking. Brakes alone aren't going to solve their 6 second problem and they can easily eat up 3k in a brake setup. The op is right, pads, better rotors and fresh fluid will be enough for a single lap. This is a sprint not a Marathon
@howarddavies136 Жыл бұрын
@@vr6one you're right. On this budget and for this purpose, a BBK is probably overkill. If I was in their shoes, I'd probably do pads, a flush and maybe braided lines. I suspect the best improvement will be when they inevitably strip it.

I've daily driven plenty of 'lightened' vehicles, better mileage, better performance, spill resistance. It's nice to be able to hose off the interior when it fills up with rocks and dust from the desert. You want it to be a 'supercar'? Lambo uses skateboard grip tape on bare floorboards and CHARGES EXTRA for the 'lightweight' option of no carpet or headliner. And besides, supercars aren't exactly daily drivers, a bigger challenge will be to bring your Lambo to Wal-Mart, Costco, the gym, the vape shop, the post office and Home Depot for a year like it's a Scooby lol.

Sway bars and strut braces next! No idea what the Subaru aftermarket prices are like or how stiff the chassis is from factory, but for my Volvo you'll have front and rear for €500. Before I installed sway bars I wasn't sure how much difference a thicker squiggly line under my car would make. It makes quite the difference! It doesn't mount the curbs as easily anymore, although that downside is overshadowed by the amount of grip you gain. Adding a strut brace allows you to get the most out of it. My Volvo was pretty flexible from factory, so again, no idea what it does for a Subaru.

Pressing start and stop on your phone is bound to cause incosistencies due to human error and reaction speed.
