Next cruise whats happening? Noone made a choice yet?

Also who is attending wakefield on may 9th?

I was meant to do something but had a race car to fix at the time

Racecar fixed so can do a written way run if still keen

I did go to Rylstone recently and it's an epic drive but is a 500km round trip

YAWN

Wake up and go tune some epic cars ya lucky bastard!

And yes we know the Newcastle scene is a bit dead, would help if cops werent kents!

yea has been very quite here.. every one is too busy myself included by the sounds of it.

on a good note, my new wheels should be arriving tomorrow, going to pick up tyres from sydney this afternoon and all should be on the car by friday. very keen!

What did you end up with Ant? I forget...

Yeah well the deck is nearly complete and the bathroom is 3/4 done so the house is getting there, that is what has consumed most of my time lately!

good job mat!

the bank just gave me 22.5k for house renos! very keen to get my garage built amongst a whole lot of other stuff!!!

Amazing how quick you can spend $$ when you do a small job.... Work out what you think it will cost then double it :P

haha bloody hope not!! I think the garage and driveway will cost around 10k from the quotes I got.

then were getting a new fence, make a garden out the front where were usually parking, returf some sections of grass, new front door, tile outside under the awning, and possibly a bathroom reno, should come well within the 22k and the house will be so much nicer.

Report back when you are half way through :P

Nah it should be good man! We have been doing it on a budget and its going together OK, slowly though as we are relying on family to help :D

    • I was just driving into work and while on my drive, I went to accelerate and noticed the car would sputter/hesitate and I’d hear a few pops from the exhaust before it started going faster. Then I also noticed that when I push my clutch in, the car would die. This all started happening today. Any ideas?
    • That is a lovely Volvo, just saying. Yes I should have got an 260RS when they were cheap. I do regret now.
    • ^ lots of good points made above. The thing is, "aggressive" or "flush" fitment is relative depending on how much you have been influenced by social media. My starting point is always "look at the Nismo RWD specs". That is where you should start, then start measuring as GTSBoy as sort of mentioned, because every car will be slightly different. My 8.5"+35/9.5+38 will not be "flush" enough for you because you want more "pumped" look, which is why you measure. Tyre sizes and brand/models also make a difference. Some tyres are more chunky/square, some are more rounded. That means you could get away with more aggressive offsets without rubbing. But then it also depends on your ride height. Also depends on how much your car copped damage before being shipped from Japan. So it goes back to measuring your car yourself and determining what can work. Those Nismo specs are used bacause it's a safe spec for standard car (suspension. body) with chunky tyres. But then I put 265/35 wide tyres on R34 GT-R wheels, and currently run 285/30 tyres on 18x10 wheels.
    • Sounds pretty awesome. I recommend creating a new build thread and posting all your goodness in there.
