After grieving his losses with two separate and substantial share investments, dezz decides to mourn by way of purchasing a severely depreciating asset

Might start my sparky apprenticeship soon

black is a lot of work. dont recommend unless the fastidious type.

the gloria is a piece of work. i cant even close the bonnet properly withour leaving fingerprints or imperfections.

Only if you give a shit about the sheer phaggotry of having pristine paintwork 100% of the time

it's a work ute / jetski tow rig / depreciating assett

I have a black Xtrail and DGAF

But if you DGAF then it will not look pimping as dezz desires it to be. If it's going to get dirty then just get a colour that still looks good when it's not super clean.

Like that navy blue or dark green Holden do on the VFs.

Also, not all sparkies are well off. A lot are struggling. Not the ones I f**king work with though. True definition of 1st world problems. Fighting over 20mins of travel time and milking jobs for OT even though some of them are lucky to be on the job at all.

Then find out some of them are ex-desal. Not f**king surprised.

it's a car. Cars get dirty. This is life

I've got the skyline on the front lawn at the moment, running just fine.

It's the dodgy evo I bought that is having issues and is up on stands in the garage atm. Was pulling the brembos off the front on Sunday night to swap to new rotors and pads, only to discover that the previous owner or previous-previous owner had munted the thread on the bottom caliper mounting bolt hole.

So there was nothing I could do but slowly and painfully remove the bolt, crying about doing more damage to the caliper.

WTB: Thread Doctor.

can confirm "previous-previous owner"

I didn't own it long enough to change pads lol

You strike me as someone who buys new vinyls at the record store and doesn't listen to them because by the time you get home they've already been out for too long

over the years I bought a LOT of records that I never played

Well... this is the current state of the passenger front rotor, it started making a bit of noise so a few weeks later I eventually decided to change the pads and rotors.

Who can spot the issue?

    • 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.
    • Will this fit? but they are staggered set - RAYS 57DR SEMI GLOSS BLACK 18x8.5 +37 | 18x9.5 +38 5-114.3 STAGGERED SET   or If no go could just get a set 4's wheels of 18x8.5 +37 5-114.3 - would i run 8.5's 235s up front n 245's at the back if I do?   Thanks.        
    • 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?
