Well if i can do that that would be awesome, do i tell vicroads that i replaced the parcel shelf with a normal unaltered one? cause they might think i'm trying to pull a shifty or something :D

i dont mind all the other costs, but the price of an engineers certificate really rubs salt in the wound :P

heartbrkr : Yep they most certainly did write down get wheels aligned. which is fair, because the part of the tyre that was bald, was very bald. The rest was at about 75% so i didnt think about looking at the inside part.

foznice: They just poped the boot, and looked at the upper roof area not sure exactly what they found, but the policeman said, "it looks like they had to cut some peices out to fit the speakers in, if you had an accident that could effect the crash somehow if it breaks easier than it should ect plus effect insurance if it were investigated"

Those arnt exact words but the general gist.

I actully learnt quite alot from that night.

INASNT: I got pulled over by a normal TMU car, i cant read the guys handwriting.

it looks like 'N.Halleit' but anyway, then they called down two of the more popular knox district police members that drive an unmarked silver ford. i don't need to say their names. :D

But in all fairness, they wernt pricks about it, they explained everything when i asked so i don't know what people have against them..

They do their jobs well! which is bad for me :P

      Yeah, it's getting like that, my daughter is coming over on Thursday to help me remove the bonnet so I can install the Carbuilders underbonnet stuff,  I might get her to give me a hand and remove the hardtop, maybe, because on really hot days the detachable hardtop helps the aircon keep the interior cool, the heat just punches straight through to rag top I also don't have enough hair for the "wind in the hair" experience, so there is that....LOL

      Jacks that fit under GTR lips that can reach the subframe?

      On BMWs what I do because I'm more confident that I can't instantly crush the pinch welds and do thousands of USD in chassis damage is use a set of rubber jacking pads designed to protect the chassis/plastic adapter and raise a corner of the car, place the aforementioned 2x12 inch wooden planks under a tire, drop the car, then this normally gives me enough clearance to get to the front central jack point. If you don't need it to be a ramp it only needs to be 1-1.5 feet long. On my R33 I do not trust the pinch welds to tolerate any of this so I drive up on the ramps. Before then when I had to get a new floor jack that no longer cleared the front lip I removed it to get enough clearance to put the jack under it. Once you're on the ramps once you simply never let the car down to the ground. It lives on the ramps or on jack stands.

      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.
