I wouldnt think so, but Im only guessing, imagine the reflection of lights at night, or even the reflection of the sun...

Not such an issue these days... new products can help here :whistling:

i guess there is one way to find out

i'll call vicroads tomorrow and i'll let u know

Also just to let you know, chrome wrap is super expensive :thumbsup: (people think carbon costs a lot...)

^ agreed. wonder what the RTA will say about me vinyl wrapping half my car

If it's only half, you probably wont need to notify them.

If it's more then you'll most likely need to change the color of the car with the RTA.

I did this after wrapping the 34

^^^ dont do it, the stuff has a texture to it, I reckon it would get mega annoying to wash...

matt or gloss colour not a worry, but unless you can find a smooth CF vinyl or plan on storing youcar in a garage and its only a weekend driver dont do it...

Yeah I was thinking about this too, I used the textured stuff on the pillar stuff on the outside of the car and it is a pain to get some dirt out of, especially bird shit... I was looking for some matt vinyls but really have no idea where to source them. My car is white and I wanted to try and go for an urban camo look

      By Black_CSR · Posted

      Yeh I think i'll message an old contact i had for ages that manages his own tyre shop now.. n tell him what i want n work with him before ordering..  Got this 17x9 +30 Driftteks on 245/45/17 PSR Drag Radials on the rear.. They fit well - for your reference in future - Rear guards  have been lipped in & minimal to non flaring of the rear Gaurds.

      If only it were that easy! I also needed to remove seats, shocks, brake calipers, send my car through a fence, and use measuring and ended up guessing because I didn't remove seats, shocks and brake calipers. It can be hard sometimes Can be a little more complex than 'just measure' if you want to truly measure the entire wheel through all of it's suspension travel. But if you aren't going for every last mm then yeah, you can check the space you currently have and guesstimate.

      If you own a car, and it has wheels on it, and you know the offset of those wheels, and you have a measuring device, you have everything you need to work out if other wheels will fit.

      MAJOR FUEL ISSUES 25det neo r32

      By MBS206 · Posted

      Put a clamp on your return line. I have a feeling it's sucking air, and introducing bubbles to your fuel. With a lot of fuel, less problematic. I'd honestly be redoing all the lines in the tank and clamps on everything.   Also, you've given two different answers to the same question: Asked if being followed by the police you could get down to use the whole tank, you said yes you could, so long as you keep off boost. However, you then followed this up that free revving, it would also cause the issues. I'm doubting free revving is enough to make any noticeable boost on what is likely a decent sized turbo.   So now I have to ask, can you actually drive it lightly and use all the fuel, or does it break up even free revving? Also, have you put a fuel pressure gauge on it? Can you hear the pump change noise at all when you're having this issue?
