Where does one purchase his dubs?

sorry for wasted post but that phrase combined with your avatar made me crack up for some reason.

but i guess i could try and redeem this post by saying that if your looking, import monster sells discounted sets. Im not sure if they're secondhand as i havnt looked to deeply into it but..... http://www.importmonster.com.au/shop/

Import Monster FTW!

Helps you can go down there in person and see the wheels next to/on the car, or at least get a good idea of what a similar wheel will look like, offsets etc.

Added bonus of having a well priced place in Vic/Aus as opposed to guessing something over the net/yahoo and not being happy.

I'm down there a fair bit, as are other SAU-Vic members I see when I go for my little visits :ermm:

Hmmm. Might have to go down and take a squizz.

They just had 2 containers come in over the last week and a bit too... so farken HEAPS of rims to checkout :ermm:

They are SAU Traders as well, so checkout their section as i know Aaron chucked some of what he had into his section late last week.

import monster, tyre power hawthorn or OTR depending on your location out of the 3 (import monster would be the best bet as they are 2nd hand rims so a bit cheaper, quality is still up there though most look new)

last time i had to get some parts at OTR the focal point of the rims was a brand new set of 18x11 +18 te37 SL model looked awesome but $$$$$$

edit: yeah J-imports too, thanks Chad :ermm:

yeh j-imports, import monster is great i was there friday he has heaps of stuff in stock, or you can suss out local classifieds private sales good wheels there too.. jesse streeter is an option which means getting em from japan can be cheaper but takes longer.

failing on that bob jane.

Import Monster.

There is no substitute.

Import Monster & Aaron will go to the ends of the earth to find you any rim you want. Their service and price is second to none. I have used them many times and will be using them in the next few days :action-smiley-069:

Tyre Power hawthorn look after SAUvic Members

Yeah, I have seen a few "Tyre Power Hawthorn" Stickers on a few rear quarter windows.

OTR Motorsport is good and I heard Jesse Streeter decent as well.

    • The final part arrived today to un-clampify and simplify the intake Who would have though a 1/2" hose stainless bulkhead fitting designed for below waterline bilge pumps would be what I needed Test fit on a 3" offcut I had laying around to see if it would work, and it worked a treat All going well the intake will be on its "final version" tomorrow 
    • Good luck on the weekend mate
    • Must have been an absolute nightmare to drive when the power steer was out, the rack ratio/wheel size/caster is all set up for power assistance
    • Welcome to SAU, what are you looking at buying?
    • I checked the injectors again (1 and 2, since they’re easiest to access) to make sure they weren’t clogged. Even though the entire fuel system had been cleaned, I wanted to be certain. Everything looked clean, so I reinstalled and connected everything. When I started the car to confirm everything was okay, it immediately revved up high, so I shut it off straight away. I checked to see if I’d missed a vacuum hose or something, but everything was connected. On the second attempt, the car ran without the high idle, but I noticed a distinct “compressed air” sound coming from the engine bay. Tracing the sound, I pushed injector #6 forward slightly and the noise stopped — it turned out it wasn’t seated properly, despite the fuel rail being bolted down. While holding it in place, the car idled steadily without stalling and ran for over 5 minutes. At this point, I pulled all six injectors out just in case I hadn’t seated them correctly or dirt had gotten onto the O-rings. Unfortunately, I discovered that I had damaged 3 out of 6 injectors (the OEM 270cc ones) during installation. So yes, this was my fault. Since only the pintle caps were damaged, I’ve ordered a Fuel Injector Service Kit from NZEFI to refurbish them. In the meantime, I reinstalled my new injectors – the car now idles fine for over 15 minutes without stalling. I have not attempted to drive it so far. It’s not perfect yet, as it hesitates when the throttle is pressed, but it’s a big improvement. Unplugging the IACV with the new injectors idles at around 800rpm, even with the IACV screw tightened fully. But this is probably due to tune.
