Have you been...

we went right past there for a school excursion, we were there to look at wave cut platforms for earth science, but no one looked at the wave cut platform.

anything I saw there looked like it needed ironing real bad. :)

Yeah! Hence the lulz

Scout this one out lads: http://www.skylinesaustralia.com/forums/Why-t331988.html

Noel has called for a co-ordinated assault on this thread, who's with us?

Damnit, too slow, thread locked :)

Anyone know any good tyre puncture repair places that don't charge as much as a new tyre would cost?

everywhere? the most i have ever paid is about $20

is it because of too much stretch?

Direct quotes:

Jax "225 on a nine and a half? you're joking? we can't do that!"

Bob Jane "That tyre size is completely wrong. It's illegal. I won't do it. I don't even want it near my workshop!"

Goodyear "...our machine is too old for that"

K-mart Tyre/Auto "how did they even get that on there in the first place?"

LOLZ.

Thats why I took the terrorist with me to quickfit when trying to get my 215s swapped from 7s onto 8s and 9s.

Quickfit dude: "Sup Dan. What you need?"

Terrorist: "Can you swap these tyres onto these rims for me?"

*Quickfit dude looks*

Quickfit dude: "Sure, I'll put them on the 8s. No worries."

Terrorist: "And the 9s as well" :)

Quickfit dude: "Nope. No way."

Terrorist: "Yep." *evil grin*

Quickfit dude: "You're sure?"

Terrorist: "Yep." *evil grin*

Quickfit dude: "Really? Do I have to?"

Terrorist: "Yep." *evil grin*

Quickfit dude: "Oh alright. Go get me a carton of corona."

Terrorist: "Deal."

anyway - off to Archerfield. Back later mangs!

Have fun.

I cant wait to get real rubber on my car, this cheese cutter tyre onto fat rims thing is gayer than aids, Ima need a good lip rolling first though

And you're not listening to these people because?

Amen. 32 has 265s all round, once the lips were done I've had no problem with scrubbing :) The 31 has stretch though.

I suspect it's because the wheels don't fit in the guards lol. That and John never listens. Ever.

    • I've seen similar actually in my situation. You never know what tables are attempted to be used when the car thinks it's -99C or +200C. The fail state is not usually that extreme but you know what I mean - it was in my case though! This is where being able to read all the sensors is useful cause you see this stuff really quickly.
    • The above is very important. However as long as you keep timing relatively low, it's plausible to make your own knock ears and plausible to learn to tune with a modern ECU that can do wideband O2 correction like a boost controller. I mean if you only have one viable road to even drive the car on, learning to tinker to this level may be worth doing given you can't do much else with the car...?
    • I find the fact that the rear plate has to be bent inwards at the rear not so bad: but the front is just awful: It's like come on. (these are my very old, now retired/turned in plates) TBH it is a lot of money to fix a minor issue, the fact I said "I'll never really spend the money on doing this" is why people ended up buying them as a gift for a 'car guy' who can be hard to shop for.. for car guy things.
    • I just bent the ends of my premo plates. It even went through Regency like that after the engine conversion and the inspector (a great bloke!) just squinted his eyes and said "I didn't see that". Plates, and how they look, are just something that have zero importance to me.
    • Yeah, I would have said the same. It makes me suggest that there are other things wrong, such that the ECU is totally unhappy with the broken sensor. The only other thought here is that maybe it is shorted, which might cause a different issue to the typical "disconnected" sensor.
