Sweet, will keep an eye out for you! Be careful around Newcastle itself if your car is modified, the boys in blue had ruined the car scene up here due to the minority that spoilt it for all of us!

I'm not a fan of stretch at all (but that rim had bugger all ant). My rule of thumb for the minimum is 255 for 9.5, 265 for 10 and 275 for 10.5.

Not a bad rule...

yeah true. From memory, i think you can get away with 285 on 10.5 without dramas. A 34gtr lowered due to coilovers may not.

I think you can run 285 30s on 18s without too many drama, but 19s would be pushing it I think.

Hmm I might be out for nats boys.

People have been losing jobs left right and centre at work because we haven't got any contracts after dec and they said today all 4th years that can be signed off early will be in nov. I'm guessing all that can't may be told cya later. I'm not sure if I'll be able to or not yet but should be ok.

But I don't think I'll get a job till after Xmas as everyone is telling me people to hire till mid-late Jan.

Thinking after I spend 1k at nats if something blows or I come off and break shit and I don't have income it could result badly.

Still haven't made up my mind yet, idk. Would be fun but I don't wanna blow an engine or something the. Have 1000 bucks to last the summer haha

My clutch went all of a sudden so i dunno if yours has been done or not, but it will be probably the weak link? Trust me, i am a clutch killing expert!

      I know -_- Oddly enough I went to a car show this weekend and not a single person made any mention of Nitrous... I did have to argue with a know it all that was convinced I had an RB26 head with HKS V-Cam as opposed to a regular VCT RB25 head, but what do I know. I think my HKS oil cap was throwing him off.

      Jacks that fit under GTR lips that can reach the subframe?

      By TurboTapin · Posted

      That seems like a lot more work than just using a second jack under a front tow hook to raise it enough to get another jack under it.

      They're wonderful when only used to lift your car up an inch so a real jack fits under your front lip. Besides that, I've only ever used them on the side of the road.  We call them widow makers here.  Unfortunately, like I mentioned in another post, ramps are not an option for me due to generally working on my car once my kids are asleep. Cold starts, 4" exhaust and sleep rarely go well together. I honestly find using ramps a hell of a lot more work than what I'm currently doing anyways.

      Yeah, it's getting like that, my daughter is coming over on Thursday to help me remove the bonnet so I can install the Carbuilders underbonnet stuff,  I might get her to give me a hand and remove the hardtop, maybe, because on really hot days the detachable hardtop helps the aircon keep the interior cool, the heat just punches straight through to rag top I also don't have enough hair for the "wind in the hair" experience, so there is that....LOL
