Flying to Bangkok for a work conference tomorrow. Boss knows how to drink so I think it's going to get ugly... First work function is dinner at a Thai German Brewhouse!

Fathers day breaky with the oldies this morning, run down and now might go out and wash the shitbox.

Guys quick question.

Anyone know the consequences,if any, of fitting a rim with a pcd of 1x115 on to a car with a pcd of 1x114.3 (or whatever ours is)?

We have 2 flat tyres but only have acess to 1x115 rims.

I'm still in my PJs :laugh:

We did a fathers day dinner last night.

I really should go out and get some sunlight considering I've just been told I'm really really low in vitamin D :unsure:

You really should, it's an awesome day!

Stoopid mistake today

Came out of the servo and had to accelerate quickly to make the lights and avoid the cars coming up from behind.

Tramped it and got to the end of the rev range,,,,, went to change up gears,,,,, foot on clutch, grabbed gear stick to go up a gear ............................

car braked hard so suddenly during the quick shifting nearly smacked the windscreen with my head

That's when I realised - I'm in the freakin 34 - it's AUTO.

...(pushed hard on brake peddle thinking clutch - DOH !)

BAH HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA.

I sold some 300C Rims for my boss on Ebay, they were 5 x 115. When looking to see what else they may fit I found someone had put some on a Cressida...

I figured that even that 0.7mm difference could be bad unless drilled out properly.

I wouldn't if I were you.

good stuff.

surely you know someone with a spare you could borrow?

Yeah definitely.. but I needed them sooner rather than later. I was at a mates place and we realised I had two flat tires (rolled over a couple of bolts!).

I ended up just replacing ALL wheels for now by using 4 space savers until I drop the 2 wheels off to get sorted tomorrow.. hahahhaha... oh man.

    • The wideband reading is meaningless if it's not running. Why are you using shitty old sidefeeds on any engine, let alone a Neo? What manifold and fuel rail are you using to achieve that? Beyond that, can't help you with AEM stuff as I've never been their ECU/CAS combo.
    • Manual boost controllers (where a little of the boost was bled off) were quite common back in the day, because they were cheap and easy. Generally they had a manual adjustment screw rather than being fixed like yours. Down side is they always bleed boost, not just when you want them to so an electronic boost controller that uses a solenoid will have less lag.
    • Hello , im new here and i have A31 home build  RB25det neo stock eng / turbo  aem ems 2 blue connector  aem 3.5 map aem cas disk aem wideband connected to ecu  355 lph pump 550 nismo yellow injectors side feed aftermarket regulator  and won’t start with base aem tuner basic tune eventually flipped cas 180 degree so it triggers on correct stroke not in exhaust cycle  Now it won’t start Wideband reads 10 and 11 at lowest fuel setting  and will share calibrations soon for aem tuner i think something is wrong in aem tuner    please if you have any information, am very grateful         
    • Legend. I ended up finding the facebook account of the owner of the first car i sent but sadly he deactivated the account. I think you’re right in saying it’s some sort of well done custom job. Really appreciate your help anyways.
    • Totally equivalent. Stock often goes from the comp cover because that's where the actuator is also installed and the factory needs 2" of hose to make the connection - and it comes as a pre-assembled unit. They totally have a boost reference from somewhere between the turbo and the throttle(s). Oh, jeez. Just do it in M12 then. We don't actually care that much. I would expect any such AN converter fitting to rely on an o-ring or some other seal onto a flat surface under the flange of the hex**, because bolt threads are no intended to provide a pressure seal. unlike..... pipe threads. **which also requires a suitably flat and smooth surface on the turbo's boss to provide the seal.
