Fun Fact! Camel spiders are classified under the class of Arachnida but they are not actually spiders, they are of the Solifugae order which is Latin for 'flee from the sun.' They are not poisonous but can bite out of self defence... Nothing to be scared of Aaron!

still scared

My kids love shit like camel spiders, scorpions, anything like that, usually do minibeasts as a life and living topic.

I can confirm I was also interested in the above

And always collected those insect magazines where they give you a piece and you need to collect the series to build you spider/scorpion

+2 I had 20s on my ford and the ride didn't feel right, went 19s and fatter tyres feels much better and better traction

+1 get 19s and low

Have heard the LM reps are prone to cracking...

go the varrstoen 19's

Ahhh shieeett. I'm crazy keen on the BBS look though. Trying to replicate the ol' 33 with BBS haha

I've got 20s now and even though it's a bit rough, still not too bad. Maybe to do with tyre profile cos my VE came standard with 19s so on 20s, still a fair bit of meat on the tyres (kinda lol).

I messaged Varrstoen asking if they would do the TE37 (2.2 I think they are) in 20" for me but ahven't got a response yet. If they did, I'd be ALL over it. But until then, still keen on the BBS LMs. Otherwise, it's back to Lenso D1Rs or some generic concave design :(

Good luck in getting a reply from Varrstoen

I've send messages in the past with never a reply, even a sms to the guy

Neither do sharks and they'll still bite your f**kin head off

no they wont.... sharks only have a nibble to see if you are digestible.

they will take a soft bite and assess the bone to flesh ratio, once they see that humans are shit to eat they swim off.

only real problem is that a sharks soft nibble will still f**k you up

Ah that sounds cool! We make mini beasts out of various materials and hang them from the ceiling or pin onto the back wall which we is made into different environments, desert/rainforest/bush.

That's shit as. Thanks for the heads up, won't be holding my breathe for their reply then :cheers:

Does he have a vendetta for BBS LM reps?

That and Dinsosaurs

I wanted to be a Paleontologist when I was a kid...and now I'm an Accountant :/

Yeah don't expect a reply, also goes to show if you have any issues with shipment or your product it's unlikely to get resolved

I think other people in the past have had issues with communication

Don't think I've ever cared for insects, and don't think I ever will.

Insects are pretty cool, they've been around for around 350 million years and for example ants can lift and carry 50 times their own body weight!

Does he have a vendetta for BBS LM reps?

Nah just D1R fanboy.

Also, my mate recently bought some Varrstoens... And from order to delivery it all happened quite smoothly and quickly from what I could tell... not sure who he went through though, so possibly not actually Varrstoen but a dealer... So I dunno about custom values... But otherwise can ask who he went through?

But they're creepy crawlies! :P

no he thinks that D1R's are tits

Hmmm they have good wheels but the poor service alone is enough to turn me off. Had no idea their communication was that bad. Again, thanks for the heads up. You Ford owners are lucky cos you guys have the same stud pattern as Nissans :(

I have a simple formula flow-chart that I employ when it comes to these things:

Does it have more than 4 legs? ------> (YES) ------> Does it have more than 2 eyes -------> (YES) ---------> Does it pay rent ------> (NO) ------> Kill it.

    • Manual boost controllers (where a little of the boost was bled off) were quite common back in the day, because they were cheap and easy. Generally they had a manual adjustment screw rather than being fixed like yours. Down side is they always bleed boost, not just when you want them to so an electronic boost controller that uses a solenoid will have less lag.

    • Legend. I ended up finding the facebook account of the owner of the first car i sent but sadly he deactivated the account. I think you’re right in saying it’s some sort of well done custom job. Really appreciate your help anyways.
    • Totally equivalent. Stock often goes from the comp cover because that's where the actuator is also installed and the factory needs 2" of hose to make the connection - and it comes as a pre-assembled unit. They totally have a boost reference from somewhere between the turbo and the throttle(s). Oh, jeez. Just do it in M12 then. We don't actually care that much. I would expect any such AN converter fitting to rely on an o-ring or some other seal onto a flat surface under the flange of the hex**, because bolt threads are no intended to provide a pressure seal. unlike..... pipe threads. **which also requires a suitably flat and smooth surface on the turbo's boss to provide the seal.
    • I also used NP   That’s were it’s seems to be the best place to fit it? All schematic shows also that it’s should be referenced from the turbo housing. But idk, I do see high hp cars without any connection or anything to their turbos, so I really don’t know how they connect their things
