Morning Mangs,

Monday :(

On the bright side though... 2 day week! :D

how??

I have tommorrow and wed off (sort of) would love to know how you score a 5 days off..

heaps winning. Strayan as f*ck.

nah. What you needed to do was go "well now that you've given me those 2 days off for a 5 day weekend i'm hardly likely to turn up on monday and tuesday, so why don't you give me those off too"

Unfortunately, I've got a workshop to go to next week :(

T minus 4 hours and counting

similar setup here. last day of the week. tons of work....

is there noticeable improvements in ride with hubcentric rings? getting some longer wheel studs from gktech and wondering whether I should get some to go with my wheels and spacers?

you should, but 10mm slip ons are thicker than the hubcentric rings so they probably won't do anything.

What you really should do is get custom spacers made that match the hub center bore on the inside and the wheel center bore on the outside, then no need for rings!

what you should do is get the right offset wheels. Failing that you can buy hubcentric spacers.

it's not the offset of the wheel that's the issue, it's the fact that one sits flush with the guard where the other noticeably sits about 10mm in, and it's giving me the shits.

will google hubcentric spacers

but in general, are hub centric rings recommended on aftermarket wheels?

Heard that misso, It is very common with skylines. I dont think I have seen them the same yet.

ARC are a bunch of smart cookies. Their sidemounts bolt in just fine... its just when you go put the wheel arch lining on that stuff starts to get distorted. But still, its bolt on :P

Nothing to serious though, it can easily be secured by the bolts/attachers that do fit, and zip ties to do the rest, so its not going anywhere, but just a bit floppy.

There isn't. Maybe the kit came with a new lining when new? It only needs to go back 5-10mm. Like i said, the standard one fits over it with a little bending meaning osme of the other mounting poitns are out.

and don't get me wrong, i'm stoked with the cooler itself.

    • Kinda glad I never got to this ..    https://www.facebook.com/groups/1483859159195077
    • @GTSBoy This method was able to get readings of -10 to -2, so it looks like its monitoring.  Now I need to figure out why the vacuum on the line provided isn't alternating with manifold pressure.  I went with 2 lines that an RB25 tuner recommended but I'll get a longer hose and try directly off the back of the manifold.  He may have been used to OEM intake setups while I have a DBW setup that removed the MAF and IACV.  
    • I work at a car detailing and tinting shop called Quark which gets all manner of German cars in usually (mainly due to a contract with Mercedes Benz Kita Osaka, BMW Nishinomiya and others) but every once in a while something special comes in, like a fully restored 1972 HS30 Nissan Fairlady 240ZG... The shop owner had immediately started applying film to the windows as soon as it was in the shop so the interior was completely covered in towels and plastic sheets. But I could get a few photos of the engine bay which was restored like new. Such an amazing car to see in pristine condition in Japan these days.  
    • Was going to say the car pulls up nicely everywhere, especially going into that last long right hander before the main straight. Looks like a lot of fun.
    • Hey Dave, welcome aboard! Good to see another soon-to-be Stagea owner here. The wagons are awesome — plenty of space, still got that Skyline DNA, and loads of potential if you’re into mods. Definitely post up pics when you get it, everyone here loves seeing new builds. What model/year are you looking at?
