Hey All,

Just thought I'd introduce myself and put a couple of pics up of my new car 96 model Series 2 4dr.

As I have been on SAU for a while now with a few different cars like a 180sx, A31 cefiro and a JZZ30 twin turbo soarer just to name a few...

The current spec is:

Apexi Coilovers

Short shift kit and aftermarket clutch

5 zigen exhaust

Weds 17 rims and new 17 x 9 dished +20 :thumbsup:

When I first picked it up:

New Rims:

Cheers

Phill

mmmm i can feel the 33 4 door love in the air :thumbsup:

Black is sexy as hell....hmm i think i need a respray!

Dont want to sell those first set of rims do you?

Yeah I am pretty happy with black, but the first rims are being kept for track rims!

those red rims should be burnt at the stake!!!!

I know what you mean, thats why it as the first thing I changed! though they do have carbon centres so they look alright up close.

burnt at the stake... ONLY A WITCH WOULD KNOW WHAT THAT MEANS!!!

I CALL SHENANIGANS!!!!

EVERYBODY GRAB A BROOM!!!! IT'S SHENANGIANS AGAIN

Nice clean 4 door, they look so good in black! I dont go much on either rims though...I'd have to say i prefer the red lipped ones, something about the big centers on the other rims doesnt do it for me. drop it at the back and take the spoiler off :thumbsup:

Taking the spoiler is on the cards when I get my sideskirts painted and now it looks like I'l have to flare the guards a little as I just picked up another set of new rims :( New pics should be up soon *fingers crossed*

Thanks to all for the comments :rofl:

      Mistakes were made, my R34 Story

      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.

      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)
