Comma made the fluids for Halfords and have re-branded them but the Comma DOT4 is not the re-branded Racing. It is just the normal old Halfords DOT4 with wet boiling 180 Degc.
I'm going to need to look for an alternative now for my annual change. Or search ebay to see if anyone has some. I only have one bottle left.

Last year I lived in Shanghai for three months and covered a lot of road mileage. It was interesting for me to note that the EU car manufactures like the VAG group and the French who make their cars in China at the own factories do not use Chinese made tyres but only EU brands such as continental and Michelin. Now that in itself is interesting and very telling. Chinese brand cars do though and are fitted with their own crap rubber from delivery. I squirmed every time it rained as the amount of car crashes increased dramatically mostly low speed though. Driving is interesting to say the least but as a short term working resident I was not permitted to drive so I had my own lunatic who did.

I'm using the ACT release bearing without any problems.

Yes there is a problem. The ESC won't like it.

No contest until you fit race rubber.

Hi Kenny, I used those on my last RAV and when my new RAVs OEM wear out will buy a set. Compared to F1s they are not performance tyres but they are good. Will wear better, run quietly and are good in the wet.

Looks ok but make sure she has roller boots on if she's going to hang on behind you.

Tyres? + surface condition? + steering input?
-
well my first thought was "maybe its because of them being summer tyres" but just wanted other peoples opinions on whether it could be something minor or something that could be potentially dangerous for myself and other drivers
Probably rubber related in present conditions. Just drive slower. I had to reduce my lap times by 7 secs just to stay on line.

Bit like me at Knockhill on Saturday but that was because I could not get any heat into the rubber. Like ice driving without studs.

I'd be inclined to turn down the coolies to a soft setting and see what happens. Adapt the settings to the current roads conditions.

I agree with Joe. Have just fitted this clutch when my gearbox was updated with an LSD. Very nice clutch to use. It's just had its first track day.

They are treated as a summer performance tyre. My son has used a few sets of them but never got more that 11k out of the front pair. He was pushing 214 bhp. Wear rating is 280 so compound is soft for a road tyre.

Ok Danny well done. It's all yours now. Next challenge.

I have a set of Rainsport 3s on the MX5 and must admit they are superb in in rain at cutting though standing water but I don't want them on my Celica as being a superb rain tyre compromises their overall summer dry road performance v F1s.

been using Gulf Competition and its compatible with an LSD.

lol, no scoop just use the bonnet.

Ok thanks Matt. An easy one just to get things moving along and maybe some new members interest.

Nice one! Not where you live I hope!
No, and it's the first time I've come on that street.

Run them for 20,000 on the back and you will see the problem - but with the eagles being so soft you probably wouldn't get 20,000 out of them.
20k on Eagles is a dream lol. Even on the back.

Probably 10k till I get to 3mm. (2k per mm).

+1 for the Osram NB 110. All four of mine are. superb light but they do give up annually. Don't care though as they light output on a 7 is fantastic and I do a lot of country night driving. Also have them fitted in my RAV4. The MX-5 is running MTEC though but very seldom out in the dark but they are also good.
