Right around 32psi. Track pressures around 40 psi hot or higher. Sometimes 1 or 2 psi lower in the rear.

Those are track tires.

Hey goose, are you asking about track tires, or street tires?

This is for street tires, for both my Bridgestone Potenza S0-3s, and Falken Azenis RT-615. The hot temperature is just after cool down from a 20 min session for the Azenis.

Street tires, just some toyo proxes all season, what's your opinion on this nsxtacy, theres a ton of numbers being thrown around and I figure it has to be different than stock pressure of 35/33

Why do you figure it has to be different? That's the stock pressure recommended for both the ITR and the GS-R. Using those pressures, I've had even tire wear across the width of the tread, for my summer tires as well as my winter tires, and the handling has seemed pleasantly neutral. If they were not the optimal pressures, you would expect to see more wear in the center than the edges (overinflation) or the reverse (underinflation), or handling quirks, but I haven't.

I use 1-3 pounds less in my track tires, but that's a separate story.

All pressures measured cold (tires at ambient temperature, not in the sun, after the car has been sitting a while).

I think that the original poster would think it would be different due to a different tire size; along with myself?

Not necessarily. Especially when the tire size in question is so close in size to the stock size.
