I think i'll take you and Dave up on the offer to strip the car one weekend, i'll even drag the BBQ out. :)

Just need to work something out with Mr Ferguson who also wants the whole wreck. I'm thinking we all just rock up on the day, take what you want and everyone's happy.

Slowly replying to the PM's.

No dramas.. all organised.. :)

Although the Teins wont fit, well they can work but Il pass... there the 32GTR ones so they have a slight bend in them.... We will pull it all out and then you can sell them!!

And on a more serious note buddy I am glad you are ok, stageas are replaceable, lives aren't..here comes the M35 keep stagen on!

Yeah as someone else has said, cars are replaceable and people are not, at least it puts a positive spin on the situation it could have been much worse and count your self lucky. Also the the fact the ass in the stagea is so big I am sure it has great crumple zones :thumbsup: .

If your offsets on the two rims which survived are then same I would be keen on taking them. Sorry to have to ask and try and benefit on your loss.

Thanks

      New fix for low tyre pressure from bmw

      By The Bogan · Posted

      HUMVEE are fine in big open areas, but they are problematic on the street and tight areas As for reliability, some of the  US Army guys I have chatted with have said that when they were working they were fine, but, the do spend alot of time in workshops for multiple reasons, admittedly, they did get a hard time by the boys and girls who drove them I would definitely put them in the "buyer beware" category  They do look tough as nails though

      Just don't use ChatGPT or any other artificial stupidity for the equivalent of googling. Their demonstrated inability to discriminate reality from hallucination should be enough to make them totally untrusted. LLMs don't know anything and cannot think to even the smallest extent. They are just predictors of the next word, and that should never be confused with capability.

      Another little story of weird shit happening

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      I think, given the usage model described in the OP, I'd never ever experience the wonders of the 400kW upgrade. What I really need is boost from 2000rpm and probably no more than 260-270rwkW. But I suspect that the highflow is not actually the turbo for that purpose, so I may in fact need to get a G25 or 30 or something right sized and very spooly. We shall see after it is tuned. I've had to back the boost and boost ramp off to stop the thing from pinging since the highflow went on, so I've been almost living the NA life for 9 months now! Injectors are recently in hand. AFM is in hand. Dyno is fixed. Just need to clear a queue of f**king Supras out of the way (and probably fit my new gearbox). So....some time this year? Lol.

      braided lines for the turbos

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      For what I gather is a Sunday/summer car....braided is fine. You're not going to be left without a vehicle and you have plenty of time for inspection/maintenance. Oof. I wouldn't use them that way. They can probably handle the temperature** but the internal corrugations means that their flow characteristics are a bit shit. Lots of extra friction and pressure loss. Makes them flow like the next pipe size down. ** They are stainless, and the stainless can usually be at least something like 304L, which is pretty good at higher temperatures (unlike 316L, which I would use for a wrt/corrosive environment, but not a particularly hot environment). But the welding needs to be top notch. And even then, because you usually need at least one cone-seat end on them (because you can twist the hose and do up both ends at the same time unless one of them is a union) they can be prone to coming loose with heat cycles.
