damn, i'm out...

sheared one of the bolts of the rear strut top trying to install my rear strut brace!! aaaaaaarrrrrrrggggggggghhhhhhhhhhh!!

car not driveable now until its fixed, and i don't think i can find a strut top and have it installed before the weekend...

;)

i could come in the corvette, but then would have to cruise at the back and that's no fun..

What.... Just drive it.... :)

Coming down to Asply Motel Saturday Pm, anybody know of a car wash in the area???

Yep... Car lovers at Brendale and Stafford, either spot is a 15 minute drive...

Id offer my house as i live 5 minutes from Aspley Motel... But due to level 4 water restrictions means you would have to wash it at 3am, while the water police are still in bed... :(

Thanks for the advise I find one of the 2 you nominate, best we allow the WATER police some sleep.

really??? oooooops - lol - i planned it so well to! lol

yeah that sounds good - the only thing is we wont be able to then see the guys from springwood come past... what do you other guys think? (suits me!! - we'll just have to be in contact with springwood guys if we want to drive to asley together)

Its a quiet spot for those hangover blues :D

For those groups that want an sms 4 when we leave Springwood PM me with your number.

I will be there for sure! BUt not sure how to get to the starting point from St Lucia..... anyone wanna meet up somewhere in Briz so that I can follow you guys?

Ryan I can meet you at that BP near indooroopilly if you like, PM me

I think it will be easier to head straight to springwood and just ride with them from the start. That way you can't miss them go past. It,s not that much further anyway.

Its a quiet spot for those hangover blues :happy:

lol suites me fine thats just down the road

BIG ONE!!!! The meet point as I can see is Springwood maccas! Id be changing that to SPRINGWOOD CRAZY CLARKS CAR-PARK. It just easier to see from the road, easier to leave from etc etc.

RIGHT!!! all the guys that were gonna meet up at the truckstop Zennon suggested that we meet up here seeing as the springwood guys r going a different route

Doesn't look like people are keen hey... i might just drive strait to aspley with schultzr33

    • Nah. You need 2x taps for anything that you cannot pass the tap all the way through. And even then, there's a point in response to the above which I will come back to. The 2x taps are 1x tapered for starting, and 1x plug tap for working to the bottom of blind holes. That block's port is effectively a blind hole from the perspective of the tap. The tapered tap/tapered thread response. You don't ever leave a female hole tapered. They are supposed to be parallel, hence the wide section of a tapered tap being parallel, the existince of plug taps, etc. The male is tapered so that it will eventually get too fat for the female thread, and yes, there is some risk if the tapped length of the female hole doesn't offer enough threads, that it will not lock up very nicely. But you can always buzz off the extra length on the male thread, and the tape is very good at adding bulk to the joint.
    • Nice....looking forward to that update
    • Neg, the top one is actually for the front. The sizes are 18x10.5 +18 and 18x11 +32.   I measured many times but I'm sure I'll have problems as this is the thread for problems.
    • Just one thing; tapping tapered threads is tricky. Taps are always tapered and you would generally run it as far as you can, but with a tapered thread you have to stop much sooner otherwise the wide part of the taper will run in too far and you will have to thread the sensor in too far too as well (possible that it will never make a good seal) BTW nice wide wheels, I guess the top one is for the back!
    • Welp, good to know. Will have to wait awhile until steady hands with drills and taps are available. In other news, these just arrived! I will weigh them for posterity. Edit: 11kg each (or 10.9/11.1 depending on what my scale decides over multiple tests, the 18x11 don't seem to weigh noticeably any more than 10.5)
