My wheels are Desmond Regamaster 17x8JJ +32 (with 3mm spacer) 215/45/17 front, 17x9JJ +35 245/40/17 rear. As you can see in the last pic, the caliper clearance was about 1mm without the spacers, so a 3mm spacer was put on just to be sure there'd be no contact.

Special thanks to: Troy (Evo_Lee) and my lovely wife for helping me screw those Regamasters on in the Autobacs carpark.... 2,000 yen saving! Cheers guys!!! :)

Justin,

congrats are getting the car sorted :( Good choice with the rims - the black wheels suit the car, it looks proper mean :P

Looking forward to going on some runs in the not too distant future ;)

Thanks Dave :rant:

I've just been talking to Kayo about driving out to your place... but I just can't convince her that Yamanashi isn't near downtown Tokyo! She seems to think that if we drive out there it's almost like driving to Tokyo, which she doesn't want to do until the Auto Salon!!! Any ideas on how I can convince her? We might be able to head over in the first few weeks of September btw.

Justin, time to head up to Rokko for a drive and see how she handles the twisties or up through Takarzuka :P...there is also a nice dam just past Sanda.

You working Saturday? I'll be heading down to AB 43 to buy a new turbo heat sheild I saw there last time, the one I have now is starting to rust away badly.

LOL...400ps is a nice figure for the street. I thought the old girl kept up pretty well on the Wangan last weekend. Or was it the fright I may have gave Kayo on the way home, I didn't think you were just in front when you said you were JUST in front (I was caught up at the last 2 set of lights by slow traffic). The mango shake was too tasty...and before I noticed the stove tops holding in the left lane I had already overshot...ekkk! The lane in front of me was clear from way back though.

Dave, Justin's Skyline is going into the workshop for some panel work and rust repair, so I think mid September would be the earliest.

Justin/Troy,

I'm back in England for the first couple of weeks in Sept, so it'll have to be after that. Yamanashi is a fair way from Tokyo - it's around 120KM from my place to Shinjuku...still it's a long journey for you guys coming from Osaka. I you can arrange to do some sight seeing - the Fuji five lakes, Fuji, the Skyline museum in Nagano and maybe the hankone skyline too, then it'd make the trip more worthwhile...

      I refer you to this thread on PF, by someone who knows what he's doing. Paints a good picture of the humble AD09.

      Blue/grey smoke after idle

      I don't know, I've never done it that way, but 1. While it is an interference engine, there is still clearance between the valves and the piston at all points in the regular timing cycle 2. There is not a lot of distance before you can't catch the top of the valve stem any more I don't know if 2 is greater or less than 1. But 3. If it doesn't work out you are f**ked, engine is coming out to disassemble so it is a big bet.

      Semi slicks are horrible for road use, just use a high performance road tyre unless you really need the maximum grip. Noisy, unpredictable (amazing, until they are not), expensive due to very high wear and not good in cold and particular wet. And yes, it is a thing to store cars on stands instead of tyres if you know they are going to be parked up long term.....but who ever realises that a short park is going to stretch into years before it is out again!

      I know in Australia you'll definitely get above 30c. Parked in the shade in Summer you'll be above that. 😛 But in cooler climates, you might get that warm driving on the highway for a bit, but you'd never get to full heat temp. I'll try and find some of my historical tyre temps between Aus summer and winter (be aware immin the warmer area of Aus too.)
