Good news, they should be here within 2 weeks, so I'll PM off DD details sometime this week.

It's $110 + post now :)

Yeh, Great news :)

B.T.W. I just saw almost the exact same wheel nuts on NENGUN for something like $230 per set delivered to Aus. I like $110 much better :uh-huh:

ed,

Just a thought. You might want make the maximum torque value "bold" on the original post so you are less likely to get people stripping the nuts and complaining. I know many people who believe that wheel nuts are not tight unless you stand on the end of your breaker bar and socket. No Joke !!

And just for info sake, 120Nm = 88.5 lbf-ft ( foot pound ) for non-metric idiots like me.

Guys,

So sorry, I am being stuffed around by the supplier.

He is now telling me this week or next week.

I give up.

:P we all have days like that.

the question is, do you think they will make it or not?

If this falls through ed, let us know straight away. Dont keep us hanging.

If all fails we can arrange a group price from greenline. They do Rays nuts for like $150, so with 10 ppl we could get it down I imagine. I also have another possible supplier of rays nuts. same colours.

Guys,

Sorry for the slack responses from me.

Have been haggling and busting the suppliers nuts.

They have been sent via EMS so I should get them sometime this week unless he is lying about sending them out :P

DD details will be PM'd tonight.

If this is how the maker/supplier treats his customers...how do any of us know that the product we will be getting isthe quality they claim.

Im out. I want my wheels staying ON the car.

For the extra 80bucks or so to get Rays wheel nuts. At least I'll know they are tried and proven.

Phil M

ed please comment.

If we're not getting them...  I'll organise a Rays wheels nuts group buy.  Will be a maximun lead time of two weeks.

I think we "might" be best to see what ed has found out as I just had a look at the Rays wheel Nuts on Greenline and for the longer nuts ( the ones I'm after ) I calculated the cost to be 210.72 ( 17,140 Yen ) PLUS shipping etc.

I know that the Rays ones are different since they are 7 sided nuts and not 6 sided like normal / the ones we will be getting.

But after saying all that, if this group buy doesn't work out, I'm very interested in a group deal on the Rays nuts if the price is right :)

    • 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
