That moment you realise the BBS LMs on your car are 17", not 18"

Oh well, shouldn't be too hard to offload the cheap AD08s. Can whack two on the GTS-T and sell other two, or could swap the LMs for a set of 18s in something else...just can't think of any particular wheels I really fancy...

$50 and a pack of winnie blues.

i just dont get why you need to get an engagement ring AND a wedding ring...

How much do you want for the 17"? Need some wheels to clear 34 brembos'.

It's not about the money... If you say no gifts, why should people bring gifts? There's a table here specifically for gifts...

Maybe they worded it wrongly and wanted cash instead?

No one wants toasters as a wedding present lol

That but with slight gutter rash

They are 17x9+20

Honestly thought they were 18s, farkin deceiving lip

I don't mind them, they've actually grown on me, and 255/R17 tyres are pretty good value. Just a shame I bought those AD08s lol

Might whack two on the R33 and sell the other pair...shouldn't be hard to move them for what I paid for them or more

but you like tri-spokes, your argument is invalid.

Tris > entire Work Emotion range.

Work Emotion range is the dullest wheels ever, designed by a boring person who has never drink alcohol or taken drugs in his/her entire life.

Don't think I've been to a wedding in the last ten years that hasn't said no gifts but a donation is welcome / leave your cash at the door

Tradition of giving gifts seems to be dead from where I see it

Says a lot about what our society/generation has become though hey

We see more value in people funding our shit / paying for our wedding / honeymoon than sentimental gifts that will last and be remembered. Maybe we expect a high chance the marriage to go down the gurgler, or maybe cash means more to us because living is expensive. Either way, it's an annoyingly faceless gift.

Yeah I probably don't want over 100 unwanted gifts such a cutlery, fancy plates, house decor etc....

Nor organising a wedding registry trying to think of things you need.

These days people also do a wedding registry where funds go to their honeywoon travels, same same as cash

I didn't 'ask' for cash in my wedding invitation but 99% of guests still gave cash.

Out of 300 people, only one couple gave me a non cash present. It was a photo frame..... uwotm8

    • I hope it's actually possible. This is a write off in insurance world.
    • Yup. 2-way with shallow ramp angles. Still works.
    • That was the first session so not a lot to take from the day. It was low 20s ambient and the coolant had got to 110 (and obviously had some pressure!) so that still needs to be addressed. I haven't downloaded the data yet but will. I had refilled the auto trans with Redline DT6 because it claimed the best viscosity I could find at 100o. It wasn't really long enough to get a good feel for that; while the trans got to 100o in the session it still wasn't shifting crisply as I hoped. I think I'll try a few more sessions before judging. No steering motor overheat but I'd hope not in only 1 session! But finally the suspension; it was night and day over the standard stuff and the car was a couple of seconds quicker on the same crappy tyres, which is a huge difference. I'll stick with that and get some sway bars and a mechanical diff sorted too and see how that all goes together
    • I guess it’s partially a compromise of how my car is used, wanting to be able to switch from drift to grip with track side on-car adjustment. Also partially with the way the knuckles are set there is more static camber but less dynamic camber gain. 
    • OK, so update from the track day on Friday It was a classic "an unfortunate series of events'. There were a few cars around and when i checked my mirror coming out of the fish hook I notice some smoke from the rear of mine. Looked again and it was getting much worse, I figured I'd blown a turbo or something to got off it and pulled off the racing line. However.... since it is a left hairpin into a right kink, I was on the inside of the next corner. There was a car passing me on the left and a big drop off over the ripple strip on the right......and someone had knocked the witch's hat that was on the apex about 1m onto the track. So, between those 3, I decided to mow down the cone and not damage my car/the other car. Right choice, but surprising result.  The car decided the cone was a small pedestrian so it blew the rear bonnet hinges up to protect their head in the upcoming person to car impact....I didn't see that coming and like an airbag deployment it happened super fast. Straight into the pits from there, everything was driving fine but it became clear it was a coolant leak not smoke, it was billowing up onto the windscreen. Onto the trailer and home. I'll do a separate thread about the repair (once I work out what it is ), but the immediate problem was the bonnet wouldn't open because the front was pinched onto the front bar and would not release. Ultimately we unbolted the hinge from the bonnet, pulled it back a little and it released from the front OK. "There's your problem", the top radiator hose had popped off at the radiator.
