GenesisR32, yep we're in it and another R33 white will be joining me, that's 5 now :cheers:

p.s.

after the mtn run last thursday which i've done a few 360 :headspin: i realized i need new tyres :boobs: , does anyone know where's the best place to get em, like good deals?

springwood crazy clarks sounds good. Like what Nismogirl said, the car park is big and its possibly the best 'neutral' meeting place for both sides.

how about meeting at 8.30pm, have a little social gathering and chit-chat, put names to faces and then finally decide where we all wanna go from there?

each of us will have different suggestions and chances are that we will eventually be split into smaller groups for cruises, mountain runs, home, mistresses :), etc, etc, ... but at least you will still get to choose whatever activities you wanna participate in on your own free will. :)

i got fedrals on my car, they just wore out :) i had 235's though on 18". hard compund and I have to get tyres today as mine ****ed up >=[

I have Khumo 265 35 18"s on the rear, they were about $30 buck dearer than Nankangs.

I've had them since Nov 2002 and they still have heaps of tread!

Got them from Quick Fit at Capalaba.

I might be in this Thursday,.

Agreed, we need somewhere closer to Brisneyland.

As I said, we will only be at the meeting spot to have a chat, then we will probably head home. So don't get cranky at me for organising it and then leaving. Cause people do that quite often when i've said "we are only going to be out for an hour or so"

*scratches head* Yatala is NOT close to the northside. It would be like a 40 minutes drive, and a 10 minutes drive for yous.... I dont really call that fare :S

lol sorry erin, i was doing three things at once when i wrote that...

as said in above post all ideas to mix things up in the name of fairness and fun is great...

    • Yeah, it's getting like that, my daughter is coming over on Thursday to help me remove the bonnet so I can install the Carbuilders underbonnet stuff,  I might get her to give me a hand and remove the hardtop, maybe, because on really hot days the detachable hardtop helps the aircon keep the interior cool, the heat just punches straight through to rag top I also don't have enough hair for the "wind in the hair" experience, so there is that....LOL
    • Could be falling edge/rising edge is set wrong. Are you getting sync errors?
    • On BMWs what I do because I'm more confident that I can't instantly crush the pinch welds and do thousands of USD in chassis damage is use a set of rubber jacking pads designed to protect the chassis/plastic adapter and raise a corner of the car, place the aforementioned 2x12 inch wooden planks under a tire, drop the car, then this normally gives me enough clearance to get to the front central jack point. If you don't need it to be a ramp it only needs to be 1-1.5 feet long. On my R33 I do not trust the pinch welds to tolerate any of this so I drive up on the ramps. Before then when I had to get a new floor jack that no longer cleared the front lip I removed it to get enough clearance to put the jack under it. Once you're on the ramps once you simply never let the car down to the ground. It lives on the ramps or on jack stands.
    • Nah. You need 2x taps for anything that you cannot pass the tap all the way through. And even then, there's a point in response to the above which I will come back to. The 2x taps are 1x tapered for starting, and 1x plug tap for working to the bottom of blind holes. That block's port is effectively a blind hole from the perspective of the tap. The tapered tap/tapered thread response. You don't ever leave a female hole tapered. They are supposed to be parallel, hence the wide section of a tapered tap being parallel, the existince of plug taps, etc. The male is tapered so that it will eventually get too fat for the female thread, and yes, there is some risk if the tapped length of the female hole doesn't offer enough threads, that it will not lock up very nicely. But you can always buzz off the extra length on the male thread, and the tape is very good at adding bulk to the joint.
    • Nice....looking forward to that update
