Hey there all,

Just wanted to drop in and say hi.

I got my Australian release(1 out of 100!! yay) '91 Black r32 GTR about 3 weeks ago!

If you see me floating around give me a wave!

Number plates at the moment are "GTR OOM"(NSW) just until I get the rego transferred into ACT.

It's got a little more power than my old '93 Sr20t powered Silvia! :-)

Welcome this will make it all clearer..................not:

I'm Danny, aka tridentt150v for SAU aka spitter, we have a sort of good vs evil club here, including Lycraman, his able assistant Spandex Boy, the evil Flash Bogan, Madam Lush the oracle [supposed to be able to read the future in leftover beer froth] and spitter the mentor with the loose lips [just don't stand too close if you don't want to get wet]. The rest of you can correct me if I'm wrong....................

Thanks for the warm welcome all!

Yeah I was at the Federal Golf Club for the wedding the other week, it was my g/f's brothers......

I'm having a few probs with the gtr at the moment, it's keep losing power(I think/hope that it's one of the AFM's)... I'm getting some sent across from Perth so hopefully all will be fixed by the end of the week.

Anywho thanks again for the warm welcome!

    • 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)
