Not sure if they will fit or not, and not sure if he still has them or not, but I sold a set of 255/40/17's to one of the guys that works with Ed. Have a talk to him and see if hes still got them, and if they will fit :cheers:

ok i'll call him in the morning, and see, but if he had them i assume he would have mentioned it by now, then again its very likely it didnt occur to him, as it didnt occur to me untill yesterday.

i have untill tuesday or my rego will be cancelled (fu**ing vultures) it would be better if i could find a workshop who werent sucj tight asses about a tiny bit of low tread on one edge of one tyre, oh well.

hey mate, well Jayce was kind enough to offer to lend me a pair, but i ended up getting a free easily legal pair (to keep) from dusky007 (alot of you will know him from garagetitan) so they are on and im having it checked tommoz. but i doubt i will get a mechanic that wont be tight and stiff me for something simple. and if they exist i dont know where they are lol.

a hell of a lot of pain on my part would have been spared if the prick hadnt ticked the "full inspection required" box.

had it inspected today, rear wheel was knocked back for being to low on tread, which i couldnt beleive!?! so im starting work at 11am, and i have to find a legal tyre, and have it on and checked then take the car into a shopfront and have it cleared all before i start work, or my rego will be cancelled.

they could let it pass, to put it simply, but they wont.

i have 3 formals to do, and come hell or high water i'll do them, i made a commitment and i'll uphold my word, there is always a way to get things done, and when it comes to the crunch im sure i'll find a way to get it done, im just rapidly running out of time.

just called dickson, with the hope i may be granted an extension, apparently i have another 2weeks to have the defect cleared......WTF?!?!?! i was told that i would receive a letter in a few days saying i had a further 2weeks to have it cleared, i wouldnt be fined any extra and there would be no penalties, so thats news to me, but good news in this case. :@)

    • I can see between the water jacket and cyl 3 there wasn't a hard line of combustion gas. It certainly appears that the issue is coming from there. Yes, checked the tension. All at 100ft lbs where I set them 5 years ago. These blocks can crack but generally when they have been over bored. Mine is only 0.5mm oversize at 89.5mm. They break between cylinders around the 91mm mark. No sign of that with mine. My gut feeling is the head gasket lifted a while back when the studs stretched and i bandaided it by retorquing the studs. It's finally let go.
    • My Nismo 1.5 churps a bit on reverse turns when cold, but besides that feels like a stock diff.
    • Yes, but, I paid cash and I'm pretty sure the receipt was in the bin 10 minutes after I got home Note to self, keep all receipts
    • Bunnings would have just handed you your money back on that one!
    • So, version 4 intake is on its way I was looking at these a while ago but at around $200 or more it was a little pricey for something that might not work, but, I had it in my watch list, but, I got a message saying it was on special, and I had a code thingie to use, it eventually came in at $120 delivered, so BAM, BUY NOW.....LOL I'll need to have a look when it arrives but I feel it will "look" better than what I currently have, as it comes with a PCV fitting, so I will be able to get rid of the alloy pipe that goes to the throttle body with the PCV fitting  Well, that's what the voices in my head are telling me  Oh, and this happened today Yeap, it was a Trojan, and it was cheap, so I headed back to the hardware store and actually spent a little bit more on a heavy duty,  one that was actually recommended by a plumber mate, a Cyclone one with a fibreglass handle that is actually rated for clay The broken shovel will eventually be "modified" into a short handle shovel
