I've been there on 3 different occasions and have past first time every time, its best to get a mechanic to have a full check over your car before you go, so anything wrong can be fixed before you go.

you're a rare breed Ryan and a champ :P

Thanks pete but anyone would help. Sorry to highjack thread but

I have to say Pete, I have utter most respect for the effort you are putting in to help Adrian, Damo and Everyone involved. Helps bring some faith back into society when people go out of their way and at their cost to help others out, especially to this extent. Thankyou.

no problem champ, sounds good. Michael has a knack for making super quiet exhausts on high powered cars. His own 280rwkw R31 is dead quiet on full song lol.

Hey, This sounds like a spliting image of me only 2 weeks ago, On south road at regency

park cop did a u turn at lights and pulled me over(in my lunch break at work), and went through the

whole car, got done for a bit.

Told me the same, that he was going to fine me for each infrigment(modification) totalling $3000, but

only issued the defect saying he was be kind.

He to boasted about all the skylines he defects, and in particular from this forum(named it)

Wouldn't be suprised if the twat is reading this now.

Good luck with regency :P

    • 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.
    • Nice....looking forward to that update
    • 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)
