Western Australia have one of these topics and I wondered if Vic would like one. If you don't want it, it will show by lack of posts and drift away into the 3rd page... noooo.

Post the skylines (or other if you wish) you spot(ted) here smile.gif

I will begin with last night on Hotham Road, saw in my rear view mirror a purple or black r33 GTR with a nismo sticker on the windscreen.

And also a 33 gts25t off hotham road. Which i sat and looked at for 20 minutes whilst my mum was talking on the phone.

Just resting my head on my pillow when I hear my 33 start up. Jump out of bed and dash to the window to see it still sitting there in the dark. Fly downstairs trying not to fall while putting my boxe

nah one of the admins locked the old vic one, was over 500 pages

so i just removed it and made a new one - fairly std procedure

Wasn't me but i understand the motivation behind it... so I'll let you in on it.

Basically, like all wasteland threads (and others), they eat up the search/read parts of the database.

So removing them helps keep the forums fast and useable for everyone.

Whilst not 'ideal', its all we can do and I'm sure you know what I mean :D

      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)
