The Polarizer is mounted in different positions depending upon the model it is fitted to. The VL Group A plus pack's had them over to the side due to the central mounted cold air intake. The LE, Corsa, Nitron and a few other models that had them optional, were mounted closer to the centre of the vehicle. The theory behind them was interesting in concept but they have now become a very collectable item to have and worth a lot more $$$ than they sold for new. I think that they fit into the same category as a lot of other things on the market in that if you believe it works then that's all you need to make it work. As an example: It had been proven that just fitteing a larger exhaust to some cars would actually make them lose fuel efficiency and power but the owner was convinced that the car was better just because it sounded better. A retune of the ECU to suit the exhaust would lower the fuel consumption and improve power but is very rarely done. Corsa

i don't care what it does or even if it works i just want one cause if it has the kings sig on it good enough for me

Recommended tyre pressure:- Standard and 60 series tyres - 24 P.S.I (165 k.P.a). 45 / 50 / 55 series tyres - 22 P.S.I. (150 k.P.a). Light trucks and commercial vehicles - 30 P.S.I. (210 k.P.a.). wouldnt the lower Pressure make the most differnce, More Road Grip... softer track means less bumps... the smaller wheel is easy to turn so it will get you off the mark quick, your top speed is just lower.... but as your wheels heat up, and spin fast over 100km the Tire would flex out the Slack so you would not notice soo much... what do you think?

Thats right! I remember that one of Brocky's recomendations was to lower tyre pressures with a polariser fitted, and that the polariser would overcome the negative effects of low tyre pressure on handling. Maybe Brocky could have a second go, now that he's working for them, and try to convince Bridgestone that it will improve the grip and handling of their tyres and that one should be fitted to every car getting a full set of Bridgestones. Then Brocky could use the ghecko to show everyone how much extra grip the car has with Bridgestones plus a polariser fitted.
