Hey guys,

Just thought id let you all know that im not happy at all. Yesterday some ass hole, stole one of my rays wheel nuts. Now im left with a wheel that is missing a sexy blue nut :wave:

Im so pissed coz i cant find anywhere to buy a replacement, so im going to have to buy the entire set.

i dont get why people do this crap, its so annoying...

anyways thats my stupid rant, oh and if anyone has a rays wheel nut lying around that will fit on my GTR, then let me know, i will buy it off ya :D the nuts are the ones in my avatar pic....

Thats really lousy Mass :worship: what happened to the good old days where people used to steal P plates or tyre valve caps?? :nyaanyaa:

Would you bother putting a lock nut on each rims to balance them all??.. saves you buying a whole set :yucky:

yeh i know, i cud handle the valve but a nut thats just annoying... The wheels already have the rays lock nuts, so i need the normal wheel nut, otherwise id have 2 lock nuts on the wheel haha

thats f**ked.

if you catch these f**kers make sure you get a nut back.

lol

mass, if you buy a set, I'll take the security nuts off you (and the socket/key), as the compliance workshop smashed my secuirty nuts to change the wheels, and I have 4 regular blue rays nuts on each of my wheels. annoying really.

Unlucky Mass

Someone stole one of my red Work nuts on my Skyline too.

Had to order another $200 set just to replace it.

Took 4 of the nuts and sold the other 16 to some Silvia 4-stud guy so I got some of my money back. Major inconvenience though.

    • 75% complete. Will now need to get a new axle with 5x114.3 hubs and then figure out how to customize some mudguards for it once the wheels are on.
    • Trailer prep is underway... Lined up the wheel to get a rough indication of how it would sit Then removed all the bits (as far as possible) and gave the frame a light sand and quick lick of paint   Then added some carpet
    • okay, so I figured this out, removed needles and reinstalled after swapping the gauge face on my triple gauge for my ER34, all work and look good. I tried to do the same for the main cluster, but the main cluster gauge faces are dished, the replacement gauge face are flat, so due to the dish in the org face ,mounting backing plate (clear) and depth of the needle, the flat gauge face will not work. I notice that R34 gtr gauges are flat, appears to be different clear backing plate that aren't dished. are these available, or what have others done to install flat gauge faces?
    • Cheers mate. Seems some people get lucky others don't. It looks like the motor was detonating (to be expected if it was overboosting I suppose) as the pistons had a lot of detonation damage, and the bearings were stuffed. The bores were very scoured too, not sure if that's from the pistons or bits of ceramic turbo. By the by now. Have been trying to avoid the rabbit hole too much on the rebuild, and there's been a few hurdles along the way, but with any luck I'll have the car back soon™. Might even pop up a thread then.  
    • Thanks, these seem to lay it out a bit differently. I will get back to you guys after i do some tests and more digging.
