I just got my new "D1 SPEC" steering wheel spacer/snap off lock kit from Justjap.com
Well worth it for $69.
Adds approx 7cm more clearance. So less chance of hitting that indicator (out the window).
And taking off the wheel in 2seconds is fun for sum reason.

seem sturdily made? do the screws go into aluminium? wonder if it would fit my cheapo autotechnica steering wheel.

That trueno coupe looked cool. I wanted to see how everyone was going cos there were so many sprinters. Was in the beginners section for a little while and didn't really get to watch the other sprinters do their rounds as they probably weren't there yet or were doing it when I was on my way back from my lap.
Then I decided to go to the other side where Henn was ripping it up good! Sorry for the spin in that last run before the comps started Henn.
I'm glad my car made it back in one piece, just badluck for my rear tyres as they are no good hehe. And hmm, my 2 month old? C-drives on the front overheated! just slight edges of the tread area were melted. Has anyone used a539's on the track? How'd they go? I mean my C-drives were on the front, I wasn't that harsh to them!
I was in the two toned silver/blue sprinter by the way.

Sloppy?.... It fits perfectly.
Yeh its sturdy and ur supplied with screws to bolt the steerin wheel to the spacer. And u use ur old bolts that came with your boss kit to bolt the spacer to the boss kit.
It fits 2 different bolt patterens. so it should fit the autotechnice wheel.

I ran A539s up til recently and I think they were pretty good. Better than the Eagle F1s I now have on in my opinion. I find the outside edges always get flogged out quickly whatever I use though, probably due to understeer due to bad alignment/setup/skills.

nothing to do with drifto , but after years of using the a539 i have since moved to the c drive on both the bmw's . At the start i thought that the c drive was much louder , and the dry grip level was much better , and the wet much worst . But after a few thousand ks the c drive really got alot better , wet grip levels where way better than the s539 which was a really surprise , and the noise seem to go too . Dry grip level is still very good for a tyre with so much tread depth Wouldnt go back to a539's now .
