I realised that my r34 gt (stock height but big rims and tyres) was scrubbing in the rear when i had a passanger (around 80kg or so) in the back seats. Is it normal that it would scrub with STOCK HEIGHT/ STOCK SUSPENSION? Obviously my friend being in the back seat lowered the car a bit and made it scrub but it seems abnormal to happen at stock height! Guards are not rolled

I attatched a photo of my car so you guys can check out the height / wheel size to see what the problem might be :S

If you've got wide enough wheels mate, it's gonna scrub if you sink it far enough. Check the tyre or inside the guard to see how much it's scrubbing by. Chances are you just need to beat the lip up a bit for it to clear. You can borrow my heat gun and rubber mallet if you're nearby.

      Leak from Tokico BM50 Brake Master Cylinder

      By brillo · Posted

      Sorry to hear your HFM BM57 was faulty,  did you contact HFM I would hope they would be at least grateful for the information if there was some sort of manufacturing fault, you would hope they would be sympathetic even if your item was 2 years old if it had never been fitted. May I ask where it leaked from ?

      Cats are called Bella, and Donna...  Like that poisonous plant And I remember your 2 monsters, I remember making a little bit of wee when you let them out... LOL I have already installed cat doors into the laundry where their kitty litter is, and the sun room, apart from the cat doors there's not going to be any permanent mounted stuff on the interior walls (interior doors are cheap and easy to replace) I will get a outdoor cat cage thingie once I finish the landscaping out back... https://catnip.com.au/ The only off limit areas are the main bedroom and the gym room....but, currently the cats are curled up in bed, in the main bedroom with the Mrs.....LOL, the off limits for the kittens to the main bedroom lasted about 5 minutes with Jackie I currently only have 1 free standing huge cat tree multiple level scratching post thingie in the lounge room, but, I will be getting another one soon now that I'm happy with the furniture layout in the back room and have a perfect spot for it

      All of this is making it seem clear that running the Coppermix twin was definitely the way to go, especially in hindsight with how insane tariffs have gotten and the strength of the USD vs yen at the time.

      That sounds like no chance of even importing one for road registering then Now I see why Duncan wants to check LHD rules for Targa...   I wonder how "bolt in" the AWD would be if you got one imported from the US and swapped it to an AUD one
