that is your 5th post Hosh. You haven't been on here all week, I know this because I've been checking, and surprise you just *happen* to log on on a Thursday of all days looking for an excuse to drive fast again. It would seem that you have no genuine interest in cars, your driving skills, listening, being a member of a group, or contributing at all.

I was surfing the net the other day and found a site that might be a little more up your alley. Boostcruising.com plus they're having a black tie ball soon. you can get dressed up and everything.

If you posted something meaningful during the week or even bothered to go to the whoretown to chat to some of us I was going to cut you some slack. But you didn't. So very very sorry. Better luck next time.

Other than that I hope you enjoy reading and posting on the forums and that you might gain some insight into your vehicle.

WTF Happened!!?!?

I mean I been on a cruise with owned and go through twisty turny bits at night and for about 30 full minutes NOT see his headlights behind me, which is why when we stopped I asked him not to follow so close, I did not get pissed at him or anything, it just boiled down to driving experiance, plus he did not have a radio for to hear me yelling out to him to freakin back off.

All that said I shudder to think what this poor schmuk did to cause such a kuffuffle!

I disagree Cyrus... It's got nothing to do with driving experience... It's common sense for one and secondly, "following to closely" is illegal and learnt when studying for your learners...

Hosh has apologised and thats great... But he shouldn't have been there in the first place. He was not prepared (no radio) and more than likely won't be welcome on any further cruises...

I for one would be just as cranky as Charly in the same situation...

I think it's great that this guy apologised and I think we should all give him a break. YES it was bad for him to be tail gating on a mountain. But he might not have done one before. Yes it's common sense not to tail gate someone, but everyones opinion of tailgating is different.

Maybe instead of just going off our nuts at him, we should explain some of the common courtesy rules of going on a mountain run. Wouldn't that be more civilised?

ines is when you are too close and if you have to break at 60 km that you wont hit the person in front of you.

however, i wouldnt want someone on my arse the entire time, so I would give them the wave to pass or I would pull over at some intersection to let them pass. most of the time I drive to the speed limit, but up mt nebo, thouse limits are too high for some spots on the road. thats where you see most of the unbarked trees.

drive safely and if you believe you want to race. go do it at 4am in the morning when now one is up there.

well i am with cyrice and erin, yeah he shouldnt have been following to close its just common sence, but he should still be welcome on the cruises maybe mountain runs are not for him. give him a chance it was his first sau cruise. now that he is wiser about our cruise etticate he should be fine. unless he reoffends i am sure he will be sweet.

    • Nah. You need 2x taps for anything that you cannot pass the tap all the way through. And even then, there's a point in response to the above which I will come back to. The 2x taps are 1x tapered for starting, and 1x plug tap for working to the bottom of blind holes. That block's port is effectively a blind hole from the perspective of the tap. The tapered tap/tapered thread response. You don't ever leave a female hole tapered. They are supposed to be parallel, hence the wide section of a tapered tap being parallel, the existince of plug taps, etc. The male is tapered so that it will eventually get too fat for the female thread, and yes, there is some risk if the tapped length of the female hole doesn't offer enough threads, that it will not lock up very nicely. But you can always buzz off the extra length on the male thread, and the tape is very good at adding bulk to the joint.
    • Nice....looking forward to that update
    • Neg, the top one is actually for the front. The sizes are 18x10.5 +18 and 18x11 +32.   I measured many times but I'm sure I'll have problems as this is the thread for problems.
    • Just one thing; tapping tapered threads is tricky. Taps are always tapered and you would generally run it as far as you can, but with a tapered thread you have to stop much sooner otherwise the wide part of the taper will run in too far and you will have to thread the sensor in too far too as well (possible that it will never make a good seal) BTW nice wide wheels, I guess the top one is for the back!
    • Welp, good to know. Will have to wait awhile until steady hands with drills and taps are available. In other news, these just arrived! I will weigh them for posterity. Edit: 11kg each (or 10.9/11.1 depending on what my scale decides over multiple tests, the 18x11 don't seem to weigh noticeably any more than 10.5)
