getting quotes for new tyres for hilux so boss can make a decision... stupid tyre sizes from toyota. 205/80/16. "butter cutters" (apparently). bit pricey for what they are...

Bob Jane tried very hard to sell me 245/70/16 reckons they would fit fine on a 6" wide wheel.

Tyre Factory across the road said 245 shouldnt be chucked on a 6" wide. I dont know if he's right, but theres plenty of people driving hiluxs with stock wheels and 265 wides or bigger on them. is it because such tall profile? or because bogan?

One of the SAU VIC main sponsors is City Discount Tyres Morrabin

Got some cheap tyres over the weekend from him for the daily

Paul is your man to chat to. You may have met him at some of the track days in his Bluebird

You laugh now, but when I'm at a formal occasion with a shitty DJ and they need someone to drop Dre beats...I have something up my sleeve.

i honestly have no idea what speed im doing most of the time

is it just me or is the speedo in a weird spot?

i get revs are more important but yeah i have no idea most of the time

i dont speed a lot, but in general i have to sort look around the steering wheel to check speed

This is some serious gourmet shit! Usually, I would be happy with some Seinfeld, but go springs this serious GOURMET shit on us!

I don't need you to tell me how f**king good pulp fiction is ok? I'm the one who watched it. I know how good it is.

But you know what's on my mind right now.. it ain't the movies on go

      R32 GTS (RB20DE) Injectors Replacement

      By GabsReDeal · Posted

      The issue now is the 'fuel cut' while driving, and when it happend, it does not stall. This, I did not test the fuel pressure while driving as I cannot with a fuel pressure gauge. I do have Nistune logs, yes. I have also replaced the MAF Sensor.   Also related to the FPG Fuel Hanger – I just realized that I need a Deutsch Crimp Tool to crimp some cables for the FPG Fuel Hanger. Need to purchase additional cables as the kit only included 2, which are for the float. FPG has not responded to my emails so far since purchasing. I thought about taking it to someone and having it done professionally, but I am reluctant since everyone I took it to messed up in some way.

      The German place in Cabramatta was rock solid, fresh pretzel cooked to order back then. Then it went all quiet, after all the poker machines were removed, then I believe it closed for good. I did drive past the other week and noticed outdoor lighting a big screen, but no idea what is there now.

      R33 GTR running -9 with no tune

      By joshuaho96 · Posted

      Yeah I suspect even if you hold airmass per cycle/cylinder constant if you get too far away from stock you're still going to have problems running the factory tune within the bounds of the factory load scale. Cams, different displacement/rod ratio, etc. I'm just lucky that the GTIII-SS with wastegate boost + CA compliance cats is pretty much equivalent to stock turbos. When I have actual space I can finally get it tuned and modify the fuel system for flex fuel to 100% handle any detonation concerns when cranking the boost to whatever those dinky turbos can put out.

      I would say no, why, because my daughter, who also lives in Goulburn, hasn't recommended us going there Pity, as we miss all the German joints around in Sydney, actually, the restaurants are the only thing I really miss about Sydney, and a special mention to Ishibanboshi at Bondi Junction, their Kara-age Don is heart cloggingly deliciousness (always added a special boiled egg...or 2) 😋
