Import Monster Sauvic Deca Motorkhana - 2011 Round 1


Recommended Posts

Why can't you? DECA Saturday, then spend the night in Shepp/Benella and drift the next day. Sounds like an awesome weekend.

Also guys, my mate Jett is coming. He's a 18yo hoon who drives an automatic EF i6 Falcon with the number plates S1DWYZ. He's a nice kid, but feel free to hang shit all over his car thumbsup.gif

Bahahahaha your such a nice guy Kieran

LOL!!!! is anyone driving up on Saturday morning to deca? If so, interested in meeting up and cruising together? if i see any interest then ill make a new thread with details of meet location and time... :)

We've been trying to teach him ever since he got his car that its not a performance monster, and that he should move onto imports for his own good. He's also aware that he's turning up to a SAU event in a Ford and fully expects to cop it.

Like I said though, he's a good kid and flips out over any nice car, Ford or not. So he's going to have a blast.

I'm cruising up sat morning, was going to leave mine around 5:30 so I would get to wallan bp by 6:30ish, should leave me ample time to get there by 7 30.

One weekend day left to make sure your shit is ready people get on it!

Polished the radio antenna and checked the pads. Still got 1mm left so all systems go. Who needs brakes anyway they just slow you down. JK

So where do I look for shit. ah, under the seat. no.gif

So, come on Saturday biggrin.gif

Heads up guys, mate of mine just drove back from Shepp and claims he hit a cloud of locust. Might wanna prep your car incase they're still there.

Yeah i was there for the weekend as well.

Shocking on the way up, nothing on the way back.

that said nothing the car wash didn't fix.

Yup. Locusts are crap. I live just outside of Shepp and I am washing my car every second day - it sucks the big one. Nothing a $2 pressure wash can't fix though :)

Woohoooooo 2 more sleeps :cheers: Well.... 3 if you dont count the Friday shenanigans :whistling:

Just a thought but does anyone have a spare crash helmet and coming to DECA.

My dad is also driving my car and it would be good if we could be both in the car for some of the runs - only have the one helmet.

I'm the one in the green 200sx s14 with my da :D

    • 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
    • Neg, the top one is actually for the front. The sizes are 18x10.5 +18 and 18x11 +32.   I measured many times but I'm sure I'll have problems as this is the thread for problems.
    • Just one thing; tapping tapered threads is tricky. Taps are always tapered and you would generally run it as far as you can, but with a tapered thread you have to stop much sooner otherwise the wide part of the taper will run in too far and you will have to thread the sensor in too far too as well (possible that it will never make a good seal) BTW nice wide wheels, I guess the top one is for the back!
    • Welp, good to know. Will have to wait awhile until steady hands with drills and taps are available. In other news, these just arrived! I will weigh them for posterity. Edit: 11kg each (or 10.9/11.1 depending on what my scale decides over multiple tests, the 18x11 don't seem to weigh noticeably any more than 10.5)
