to all SAU,

last night a friend died in a car crash near city beach, it seems no one was really at fault, no speeding, no drugs, just an unseen car and then bamm. he was my gf's half brother. the driver and him were only 17 and 16. i was out driving last night nearby, and got pulled over at the booze bus on empire. we could all see the ambulance lights speed by.

its hit all of us pretty hard, plz everyone take care on the roads, u dont have to be doing anything stupid or illegal to take someones life away. the driver who survived would be going through so much right now, even though blame cant really be laid. our thoughts are with all involved.

keep alert out there, and maybe one less life would have to be lost

damn i sound like a road safety ad, but thats what my message is

Sorry to hear mate.

I myself witnessed a head on(car was on wrong side of road for no reason) a few weeks back and was first on scene. Was a big eye opener and not a pretty sight. You can be the best driver in the world but you cant stop others hitting you.

Like you said drive safe and be alert.

All the best.

    • 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?
