I my self have owned a few cars over the years, i go through my photo's and think i should of kept that car but there's a few i wish i never bought in the first place. the car i wish i still owned was a 1974 corolla ke20 it had a 1.8 2TGE turbo couldn't beat it for power to weight.

my 4 Door R32 GTS-t...it was stock...i sold it because i thought it needed "too much work" and wanted to get into a 180. It had no rust, chassis was a little bent, but not bad, and the interior just needed a touch up...apart from that it was great...tein shocks, $1100 JVC cd/dvd player, stock motor except it was running 11psi...it was great...

then i rushed selling it to buy an s13, which i now regret so much

Mk 1, 2 door escort, stright, bright red, gold simmonds and no rust!

mine were silver hotwires with white wall FAT tires. was a Mk1 1972. fitted a 2L pinto though with webbers.... was a very very mean machine... sold for 300 bucks. :D

A bit of sentiment here...

It was my 1st car; a new Datsun 1600 Nathane Yellow.

Mods incl. a radio/cassette (new back then), chrome wheels, No.1 Pool ball on the gear stick, Weber side draught carbie that made the Capitol Motors Service Engineer go Wow!, blackened back panel, aftermarket centre console, a light in the cigarette lighter.

It'd look great next to my R34 GT-R 2000

Other fond memories incl. Alfetta GTV 1979, Alfa Romeo 164Q 1990, R33 GT-R 1995, BMW 328Ci 1999

    • 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?
