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.

    • Why are you so adamant on going M12? Why not follow Brad (GTSBoy) suggestion. You're talking moving from a 1/8" size, to a 1/2" effectively. 4 times bigger. Why skip the commonly available sizes in between? The bigger you go, the more likely you are to strip the threads out at a later date, as guaranteed, someone will put a huge spanner on the M12 and really tighten it up, and you're only in thin wall, so not a lot of threads to engage!
    • Hi. Yeah thanks. Car is already at tuners and it staying there to resolve "many" issues they do not like. So it is in a good hands. Getting a good tune on that Nistune ECU too so the car would be good. Just needs a little tune up and love.
    • Probably gonna remove manifold and turbo. I’m not sure if I can get M12 x 1.5 air tight. Could use high temp Loctite 246 or something similar, but I don’t know. Maybe it’s just best to remove everything again and weld an 1/8NPT on there instead.
    • Yeah, saw the ratios, not impressed. Would like the punch I have in the first gears now. With those ratios it won't be the same.  Also want the h pattern gearing, or at least a quiet gear set that don't need to come apart for service each year. Looks like the only "reasonable" way Is a 8hp70 transmission, but where is the fun in that🤷‍♂️
