Sinista: marriage = submission?? oh I thought submission involved ropes and chains and whips and stuff.....oops , no that's at the hell fire club, or so I have been told....heeheeheehee

BTW - did you get the position at the HFC?...lmao (jokes)

I still receiving therapy :crazy: after finding out how many Skyline drivers watched the OC rather than talk cars down the local. I thought we was a group of hard core, no BS types with a cool passion and a need for speed.

BTW whens SAU Knitting classes start up again ? knit 2....pearl 1, knit 2....pearl 1, knit 2....pearl 1, damn dropped a stitch.

Hmmm... Richard, heard my parents bumped into you at Integra while they were picking my car up for me (damn work). They told me you said something about coming along one Tuesday night and meeting all you guys and gals. Also heard there's a cruise the 19th...im working till 2 that day but if there's still something happening after that i'd love to meet up with everyone.

Yeah, nice folks Graham. Love the way your old man drifted sideways onto Lanyon drive, although mum needs to work out where the velocitator is...LOL

Trivia on again this Tuesday at the Jerra (7:30). New clutch hey - Nice score. Check out the Chrissy thread but almost certain we still be at the Cotter by then. If not and were cruising just get on your cell and call b4 you head down.

Yeah, my dad said he was having a hard time with the clutch. Don't blame him, the other one was pretty spongy, i'm not used to the new one...stalled a few times now. ahhh the shame. :)

As for my mum... you should see her behind the wheel of my car, she's dangerous.

ask anyone whos been in my car lately, richard, cassi etc....i still cant drive the bloody thing, its a bitch in traffic cause if i dont launch reasonably quickly the car jutters and i look like a retard, yesterday going up the ramp to the top level carpark in civic i had to stop half way up, and the only way i could move forward way by revving it up so i wouldnt stall from taking off to slowly, whcih reulted in my wheel spinning and lighting the rears the rest of the way up the ramp, and getting several dirty looks.

Reminds me of when my clutch was slipping really badly. Had to park at the top of my driveway which is pretty steep, revved heaps before the car did anything. spun my wheels at the bottom leaving a nice big black mark. Don't think my dad was too happy bout that...

But yeah, i can see it taking a while for me to get used to the current clutch. That said the response is so much better! Sharper gear changes and less crunching on the box. Ed charged very fairly as well after i looked at the quote. Very pleased. :)

TRIVIA is ON again.

If your not there we will spread rumours about your religion, sexual prefrence, political persuasion and then we get really nasty and show your home videos.

But seriously:-

Come on, It really is a great night to catch up and for the newbies to meet the SAU crew.

PS

If you dont come I'll be forced to :ddd: in your absence but if you do come along..... I will still have a few.

Remember - Drive responsibley and

    • 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)
