Hi Guys,

As you may know Unique Autosports was recently struck by a massive fire in the shop above their show room. Because of this they can no longer use the show room and are now operating only out of their dyno room building and their workshop. Since this arrangement is far from ideal Crazy John is packing up his cardigan, pipe, captains hat and love boat and is moving to a new workshop soon. As he's already laid out his dough for the new place and is looking to make his move sometime in Jan it's time for him to get rid of as much stock as possible.

Basically anything not nailed down is open to offers. Between now and the moving date (yet to be set, but some time late Jan). So get in there, or call and hassle him or whatever and make an offer on the bits you want.

He has loads of stuff that must go. Particularly big bits like bumpers, bonnets, side skirts, mufflers, exhausts, suspension etc etc etc. And he is willing to negotiate on price on pretty much anything in current stock.

Personally I'm already breaking his balls on a few key pieces for my beer mobile. So by all means ring him, or even better get out there and confront him face to face with your low ball offers.

If you ring up and greet him with a big aussie G'day he will drop another 5% off the price, but you have to do it well to qualify. Another way to ensure good discount is to ask john to tell you a story. Ask him about the time some nice young gentleman tried to pass a dodgey cheque. or pick-up UAS clutch pivot and ask him to explain how it's better than a nissan or nismo one. He will have you entertained for hours. Use these tactics to distract him from the price.

Anyway, bottom line is this: John needs his stock cleared, so bargains are there to be had. All you have to do is ask.

note: posting this for "I'm all in" John as his computer is on the fritz (could be the operator though?!). I dont have any association with UAS except for having been a customer there for a number of years and I like taking his money when we play poker.

hmm it works for me. But John did say he's been having trouble lately. He's not getting email either. so best to ring, or go in there in person.

    • Yeh I think i'll message an old contact i had for ages that manages his own tyre shop now.. n tell him what i want n work with him before ordering..  Got this 17x9 +30 Driftteks on 245/45/17 PSR Drag Radials on the rear.. They fit well - for your reference in future - Rear guards  have been lipped in & minimal to non flaring of the rear Gaurds.    
    • If only it were that easy! I also needed to remove seats, shocks, brake calipers, send my car through a fence, and use measuring and ended up guessing because I didn't remove seats, shocks and brake calipers. It can be hard sometimes Can be a little more complex than 'just measure' if you want to truly measure the entire wheel through all of it's suspension travel. But if you aren't going for every last mm then yeah, you can check the space you currently have and guesstimate.
    • If you own a car, and it has wheels on it, and you know the offset of those wheels, and you have a measuring device, you have everything you need to work out if other wheels will fit.
    • Will this fit? but they are staggered set - RAYS 57DR SEMI GLOSS BLACK 18x8.5 +37 | 18x9.5 +38 5-114.3 STAGGERED SET   or If no go could just get a set 4's wheels of 18x8.5 +37 5-114.3 - would i run 8.5's 235s up front n 245's at the back if I do?   Thanks.        
    • Put a clamp on your return line. I have a feeling it's sucking air, and introducing bubbles to your fuel. With a lot of fuel, less problematic. I'd honestly be redoing all the lines in the tank and clamps on everything.   Also, you've given two different answers to the same question: Asked if being followed by the police you could get down to use the whole tank, you said yes you could, so long as you keep off boost. However, you then followed this up that free revving, it would also cause the issues. I'm doubting free revving is enough to make any noticeable boost on what is likely a decent sized turbo.   So now I have to ask, can you actually drive it lightly and use all the fuel, or does it break up even free revving? Also, have you put a fuel pressure gauge on it? Can you hear the pump change noise at all when you're having this issue?
