did the drive in a X-trail i have rented, currently sitting outside watching the sun go down drinking a bottle of 18 year old scotch

Heads up us north lads are heading down your way tomorrow night (B&R meet) seeing as you lot are too lazy to come up and see us.

Whats up with your car John?

doing too many hektic skidz and popped a tyre/rim.

still dont know how the front tyre went bang lol

Whats up with your car John?

One of my tyres went down (thinking it was the valve) and i didn't know it had come off the back bead. Limped it to the workshop to put air in it and heard and awful scrape... that was the rim buckling. So now I need new rims. Ordered them, but they won't get here till next wek. To add to that I'm being screamed at to get my car out of the workshop. So awesome fun. :down:

So looks like i'll be going heli-boarding on sunday if we get some good snow on friday/saturday, full day flying back country run, no lifts no crowds. Only down side is a higher possibility of death or injury. But im ok with that.

On another note the only skylines i have seen over here are non turbo 4 door 33's on stocko 15" alloys. Probably CA20's

did see a nice 180sx though

john,

you can use the wheels that were on my car. (not the BBS ones) that will get you out of strife. they are yours to pick up. mine has no suspension under it currently so I'm in no hurry to use them.

also

fkn subaru!!

Cheers, Chris. It's looking like I might need to pinch them for a week. Can I swing by at lunch tomorrow and grab them please? My rims should arrive early next week.

hey fellas.

John I also have a set of rims here if you want to borrow them.

Thanks mang! But I gotta get it out of there tomorrow though unless I want a really cranky SM. And Chris is right around the corner.

    • ok so if i wanted to go 18's i would go for 8's  in front 30+ or 32+ off set at front and the back 9 would be ok? what offset should i aim for.. then can i do some  hunting for wheel rim choices..    If i get this - will this fit all around: Size: 18 x 8.5 +37 - n what tyres size tyre should i get for front n back?  
    • Absolute f*cking nightmare. I had to take breaks constantly, and I was always pissed off when I got home. The line split in Italy on day 2 (we drove from the Netherlands), lol. Driving any narrow European town was... well, sh*t.   Appreciate it man. Here, I'll just drop a favourite from the load I took on Saturday.   I'll update here when things happen with the car, the thing is, with stock power and almost everything chassis-wise taken care of, there really are no problems. 268,000kms now and counting.  
    • Ah! I actually managed to snag a lightly used set.... that aren't so suitable for me right now. They don't work on a GTT without some cutting or creative heat moulding. I thought about reselling them myself cause I didn't want to murder them, but it looks like I'm probably going to attempt to murder them/melt them because I may as well. @GTSBoy @PranK can somebody close this thread?
    • Hey mate,  I have a set, one is slightly damaged but wont be noticable once installed.  Shoot me a message if your still after them 
    • I couldn't wait But, the black constant tension hose clamps were too thick and there wasn't enough clearance at the T/B and I couldn't get it to seat properly, so I had use a silver one there I also added some 3" silicone over the alloy bit that goes through to hole on the radiator support as it looked like it was sitting on the edge of the hole in the radiator support, I never noticed a rattle or anything, but there was a witness mark It is basicly done, and I can live with the silver hose clamp at the T/B, I will get a black clamp for the head vent though where it is attached to the bulkhead fitting  It never stops...LOL, only issue now with the shock tower brace is it slightly touches the under bonnet liner now, if I leave it it will either wear some paint off the brace where it touches, or damage the liner, so I removed the liner to see what I have to work with, with the liner removed I have about 20mm of clearance, but sadly the middle part of the underside of the bonnet is only dusted with paint and looks crap, so I cannot have that, but.... as I have a roll of Carbuilders premium under bonnet insulation in the garage laying around that is only 5.5mm thick (we were going to use it on the boys Patrol, but he crashed the front of it a few months and it was written off, hence why he now drives my old Honda Accord Euro), I'll use the OEM liner as a template and get the Carbuilders stuff fitted up to cover that dusted paint up
