Ok so recently me and few friends were driving along to the shops, and noticed a black R32 with space savers on.. We were like cool he must have popped a tyre and put a space saver on.

But then to our amazement he was driving along as if he had all 4 normal wheels on. Speeding a fair bit and cutting in and out of traffic etc etc..

Now not to long ago i noticed another black r33 with one space saver on.. Didnt think much of it then, but saw him aagin a few days later.. Again with space savers on.

Now today i saw him again driving with it on..

Dont you know that its not safe having it on for long periods of time?? Esp when you drive around like as if you had all normal rims on..

Sigh..

End rant..

i'd slash their space savers to get them off the road and prevent an accident.

this space saver shit must be the new "look at me, I'm a fu(kwit" trend.......the 5" cannon exhaust and the 200 db blowoff and pidgeon in the engine bay trend must be on its way out.

He obviously doesn't pay attention to Skylines in the news or he would have seen the Skyline that crashed because they were driving too fast on a space saver. Didn't one of them die?

Yeah I think a guy and his partner died...and a little boy survived the crash?

But the the times i saw the r33 he was drivin normally..

The other r32.. well lets just say there was an accident waiting to happen..

ohh well not my problem in the end anyways!!

hahahah nice pic mr 32!!

and the 200 db blowoff and pidgeon in the engine bay trend must be on its way out.

Not possible.. :blink:

Read the title and thought "Gees.. this one's going to stir a pot, bit racist.."..

But no - it's ok - it's stupid people being stupid..

Saw a taxi drive driving with one the other day - dropping people off.. went to get the next fare, couldn't believe it..

I drove around with a space saver on cos I was having issues with my rims.. but never went over 60k/h or hit boost and never on there for very long ..
hahah sure slim sure..

nah its all good.. Im just lookin out for you guys lol..

it is true

i was following him to make sure everything is fine..

damn, im a good bloke.

I was one of the mates with Siddr20. Believe it or not, the 32 with the space saver had positive camber on the space saver wheel. I think you can all work out how positive camber comes about

    • Jack the back of the car up, pull that wheel off, pull that sensor out, and put a bore scope into the hole to inspect the outer casing, see if anything looks damaged before you pull the whole thing apart.
    • Ergh... So I pulled the speed sensor out again and the tip was shiny so I think it's rubbing the bearing. The bearing contains the magnets for the speed sensor so I think when the first sensor broke it damaged the magnet ring on the bearing.  This is just a Google image, but there is a hole going to the bearing. So when the tip broke off the old sensor I'm guessing it fouled the bearing... As the magnet is only protected by a plastic cover it would be easy to damage it. So I guess I'm doing a bearing again.   
    • My thinking is that if the O2 sensor is shot then your entire above described experience is pure placebo.
    • Here is the mess that I made. That filler there was successful in filling dents in that area. But in the middle area. I can feel dents. And I've gone ocer it multiple times with filler. And the filler is no longer there because i accidently sanded it away. I've chased my tail on this job but this is something else lol. So I'm gonna attempt filler one more time and if it doesn't work I'll just high fill primer the door and see where the issues are because guidecoat is of no use atm.
    • Ok, so I think I sort of figured out where I went wrong. So I definitely overthinked it, and I over sanded, which is probably a large part of the problem. to fix it, I ended up tapping some spots that were likely to be high, made them low, filled them in, and I tackled small sections at a time, and it feels a lot better.    I think what confused me as well is you have the bare metal, and some spots darker and some are lighter, and when I run my finger across it, it' would feel like it's a low spot, but I think it's just a transition in different texture from metal to body filler.    When your finger's sliding on the body filler, and crosses over to the bare metal, going back and forth, it feels like it's a low spot. So I kept putting filler there and sanding, but I think it was just a transition in texture, nothing to do with the low or high spot. But the panel's feels a lot better, and I'm just going to end up priming it, and then I'll block it after with guide coat.   Ended up wasting just about all of my filler on this damn door lol
