No he wouldnt seel the plates, he owns the red ss. His skyline is no longer try 9 but i dont think im aloud to say nemore, should be finished in a few months tho keep an eye out for it, it wont be registerable.

He keeps performance forums up to date with his car, so posting a few little details should be fine id guess. Last I read he was going for 8's, last time i saw the car at DMD, it was painted another colour with mini tubs I think.

Try O9 Still Exsists But Under New Ownership. The New Owner Had Fall Out With The Cars Original Builder (cant Name Any Names) And It Has Had A Colour Change (not Sure But I Think Its Now Blue)and Some Other Mods Being Done At This Point In Time. The Ss Is His Other Car Which He Has Put These Plates On While The R33 Is Off The Road.

Keep Yours Eyes Out For It Soon.

Dude dont know where u get ur details from but his skyline will never be back on the road

Nismo King has it right. the car is yellow, and yes is mini tubbed, no interior, and yes 8's and optimistically, well the mechaic building the car says 7's. It only weighs around 800kg's now, RB30 block with GTR head, hug big custom made turbo, custom plenum, custom manifold, dry sump. I know i helped put the engine together while i was still working.

secretgarage, you know you don't have to put a capital at the start of each word, makes it really hard to read!

try09's has been sold before hasn't it?

A few years ago when it was first built under different rego, it came up for sale. And brett? or what ever his name was bought it and built it up under "TRY09's".

    • 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)
