The Eagle F1 GS-D3 is Goodyear’s maximum performance radial developed for driving enthusiasts who want more performance from factory stock or aftermarket-tuned sports cars and performance sedans. The Eagle F1 GS-D3 excels in wet conditions by delivering class-leading hydroplaning resistance and traction, as well as offers competitive dry performance.
Surprisingly the Potenza re001 last l0nger than i expected, instead of 6mth, it lasted a year and if i didnt change my suspension and messed up my alignment and camber it could've lasted longer.
But decided to save the alignemnts for the new tyre and decided to go with the Goodyear Eagle F1 GSD3 which has the most review, a good reputation and a lot of awards. The tyres a a bit noisier then the potenzas, the steering feels mild, feels like it lack grip until i hit a certain turn the tyres are screeching however the grip is still there and the car is still controlable.Purposely hit a puddle of water at speed and like they say no aquaplaning.
The feeling reminds me when i first us a full set of Yokohama S Drive the car turns in and there's a feeling of oversteer. So i need to get used to the the tyres behavour befor i can go all out with it.

The ATF cooler is simple to install given that u have the right tool. The hardest part for me was taking off the original clamp because its very hard to reach. Need to lift the car and take off the lower cover. The taking off the bumper was easy.
Overall a peace of mind when driving hard all the time. Prolong the life of the transmission.

The V4X is probably the cheapest standalone that does not break the bank and has more function the piggyback thats almost the same price. This is because other than controlling the fuel and ignition it is also capable of controlling the Toyota VVT-I. Where most piggyback and standalone only offer VTEC control.

When we look @ GT cars, we can see aerodynamic diffusers on the cars. Even the body are widened to accommodate the wider tyres. These aerodynamics helps the cars to corners with great speed which complements the rigid chassis, suspensions and sticky tyres.
This is why call it GT S15 because apart from the already aerodynamic proven Vertex bodykit, the owner also did a full diffuser kit giving it a unique GT look.
