yeh driveways are fkn bullshit i got the roll gutters around here and i still scrape on my driveway but meh.. it'll survive my paint work is shit anyway

blags why u gettin rid of ur wheels!

this is why I'm going anti fibreglass and reverting everything back to urethane and metal, for the flex when dumped :)

ah ok cool :)

I kinda want less spokes anyways, after having rims with shit loads of spokes i really cbf with them want something easy to clean.

Also like the look of say 5-6 spokes love te37 and GT-C's prob my 2 favorite, work meisters are also nice. Any other suggestions? You guys seem to know your shit about rims..

Have been thinking about what you guys said the other day.

Current plan:

- Sell ZX for as close to $6k as I can get

- Buy daily for $3k

- Sell Supra for as close to $16k as I can get

- Buy MR2 in Victoria. Modify it until I'm happy. No matter how long it takes or how much it costs

Does that sound like the way to go?

Might have to drop the price on the ZX again... It won't even sell for $6k. The market is f*cked now. I just want it gone though.

Finally you are thinking :)

sounds like the best revision of your plan so far. sensible at least, you've got a car you're passionate about and a decent car to drive around in.

word of advice, spend more on a newer daily that's prone to less faults/breakdowns. esp if you plan to build your MR2 slowly.

True that.

Cheers man :( That's a good list. I'll have a look on carsales now.

Do you know any dealers that would let me trade in my ZX? Would be so much easier than trying to sell to all these boyracers with no money.

Dealers will give you f**k all for the 300ZX.

Best sell it in a private sale and when you put your add up to sell it, just say "No time wasters / boyracers / shit kickers".

Simple.

You tried going up your driveway on an angle / sideways?

just drove down to have a look at those 19s at import monster.. fell in love with the GT-C's at first sight.. where else can i compare prices for them?

Ppl would say Jesse streeter, but I have confidence in Aaron.

Local Aussie business and I'd support him.

You get to see the wheels there and then / inspect them for as along as you want.

Just browse the For Sale section, if you want to compare.

yeah will do mate :)

who / what is Jesse streeter?

on another note, will 19 x 9.5" +11 and 19 x 9.5" +21 sit good on a 33 GTR? different offset is ok as long as tyre size is the same yeh?

oh and jezza i would go a honda civic as a daily :( just make it black and green neons, get a motec system exhaust etc..

Jesse Streeter is a guy who lives in Japan and works out of his basement sending goods at good prices, from what I have been told...

I'd stick to 18" wheels with the R33 GTR.

But that is just me tho.

Cheaper on tyres.

With the R34 GTR I still would stick to 18" but you can get away with 19"...

yeah 10" +18 sits flush on an R33 GTSt that's lowered. 10.5 +15 is nice on an R33 GTR

Also NO. It's not OK as long as the tyres are the same. the same overall diameter of the wheel (tyre + rim) must be the same front and back with about 1% tolerance.

    • Possibly avoid using a Cometic one unless the deck/head surface are perfectly flat. I did have a look just then and forgiving gaskets such as Tomei or Nitto don't exist for the FJ20, however the Bar-Tek or Kameari ones look good and might do the trick.
    • Because pipe threads for pipe things. M threads for bolt things. Throw some teflon sealant onto it and dust your hands off knowing you did the right thing, instead of going twice around the block to achieve a result using the wrong things. Of course, all of these solutions are ignoring the fact that the minimum thread pitch we're talking about here is 1.25mm, with the 1/4" in NPT or BPS being out around 1.4mm. You will need to know that the boss you're tapping has enough thickness for at least a few threads. That's one of the reasons that 1/8" is commonly used - because the pitch is <1mm. And why would you look to use 1/4" NPT in a BSP country anyway? Ugh.
    • Just throwing around ideas, does it need to be in the compressor cover? Why not the hot side piping?
    • 1/8NPT drill size = 8.7mm. Since the hole got messed up by me, it’s probably around 9mm.    So 1/4” NPT would be next step. A drill size of around 11mm would be preferred there which is not way of my M12 (drill 10.5mm and tap M12 threads)
