Gday guys,

i want to enter the HSCC Super Sprint day on the 12th of August, but there is no way in hell i can afford nor justify spending 1k+ on new semi comps that will probably sit in the garage for another 6 months after the event. Im hoping someone has some 17" and/or 18" semi comps lying about that they might consider selling?

Sizes im looking for are 215/45/17 up to 235/45/17 and either 225/40/18 or 235/40/18.

If it's any consolation these WILL be used seriously, i want to get as close as i can to a 60 second lap on the day (pending the arrival of a new radiator :lol:) and i cant do it with street tyres.

Thanks in advance,

Ben

I was given 2 x 235/40/18 (Dunlop D02), and 1 245/40/18 (Bridstone RE54). I ended up getting a full set of 245/40/18. they have over 50% tread left. You can have them if you want, as they were given too me.

Yep i'm in launnie. Unless you have a reliant robin you'll need to find adleast another tyre

Id just want the 235/40/18 Dunlops :P so theres two of those right?

I can come up and collect in the next week if thats ok? Unless you're coming down for the super sprints this Sunday? *crosses fingers* haha!

yep 2 of them. I should be down for the super sprints, so i'll bring em. But if my car isn't finished you can come and get them.

They're not connected to rims, so i don't know how you'll go getting them on a Sunday morning before the sprints.

Ill use them in a few weeks when i go out again with a few mates for private practice :P.

I have some 215/45s for this weekend. Would prefer 235/45/17s but no-one wants to sell any :D.

Ill PM you to grab your number :).

Thanks again.

    • Price seems pretty good to me. Also seems a hell of a lot cheaper then buying another vehicle that only ever gets used for towing.  I'm a long way from you mate, I'm a couple of hours out of Brizzy. 
    • New [400]Z, they're available in manual and you don't have to worry about parts scarcity. 
    • Just planning to have the wiring neat and hide as much as possible.
    • The sodium acetate, mixed with citric acid, doesn't actually buffer each other. Interestingly though, if you used Sodium Acetate, and acetic acid, THAT becomes a buffer solution. Additionally, a weak acid that can attack a metal, is still a weak acid that can attack a metal. If you don't neutralise it, and wash it off, it's going to be able to keep attacking. It works the same way when battery acid dries, get that stuff somewhere, and then it gets wet, and off it goes again breaking things down. There's a reason why people prefer a weak acid, and it's because they want TIME to be able to be on their side. IE, DIY guys are happy to leave some mild steel in vinegar for 24 hours to get mill scale off. However, if you want to do it chemically in industry, you grab the muriatic acid. If you want to do it quicker at home, go for the acetic acid if you don't want muriatic around. At the end of the day, look at the above thumbnail, as it proves what I said in the earlier post, you can clean that fuel tank up all you want with the solution, but the rust that has now been removed was once the metal of the fuel tank. So how thin in spots is your fuel tank getting? If the magazine on the left, is the actual same magazine as on the right, you'll notice it even introduces more holes... Well, rust removal in general actually does that. The fuel tank isn't very thick. So, I'll state again, look to replace the tank, replace the fuel hanger, and pump, work out how the rust and shit is making it past the fuel filter, and getting into the injectors. That is the real problem. If the fuel filter were doing its job, the injectors wouldn't be blocked.
    • Despite having minimal clothing because of the hot weather right now, I did have rubber gloves and safety glasses on just in-case for most of the time. Yes, I was scrubbing with my gloves on before, but brushing with a brush removes the remaining rust. To neutralize, I was thinking distilled water and baking soda, or do you think that would be overkill?
