near new? PFFT..

2 tyre shops told us that the model of tyre is  about 5/6yrs old. Both tried to fit the tyre and both couldn’t get the pressure to hold. My friend is not a tyre specialist. Looking at the tyre with a spotlight doesn’t exactly reveal small cracks that form after the rubber hardens.

i know your trying to stick up for you buddy but u got it all wrong.

i can honestly say i never fitted the tires and therefore never knew the problem even exsisted. if i did fit them and found that problem i guess i would be upset but i dont think i would go after them on a public forum.

next time i sell anything i will tripple check the qualtiy of the item before selling.

wish there was something i could do to help your friend out. after all he seemed like a top bloke pitty he drives a supra :P i think i still have his number in my phone, get him to give me a buzz if he is that upset and will try and work something out.

just to back melv up, yes he did donate a fuel pump he won at our dyno comp back to the club!!! Champ

And i also bought a set of wheels off him without any dramas, think he even let me pay him off. Was a long time ago now though!! I'm sure you guys should be able to sort something out.

      Ah ok. I seem to be mixing it like everyone else does so not sure what's happening. Will experiment with it more.

      Depends on what you mean by OK. First up, was this done cold or hot? Are they reasonably consistent? Yes, they are reasonably consistent. Could be better. But unless it has had a build at some point, it is a ~30 year old engine and you'd expect some variation. Some of the difference could also be in user technique Is it good compression? Well....not numerically, no. New they were >160 psi. The one at 140 would be fine, in that context. If they were all ~140, you'd be reasonably happy. But the one that is @120 is twice as far down from the original numbers as the one @ 140. But.. (again)... technique can play a part in the absolute magnitude of these numbers, and the quality/state of repair/accuracy of the pressure gauge is not known. In the context of the above, the compression tester that was used last on my car is regularly compared to a known good pressure gauge. Not calibrated, exactly, but compared to a reference instrument that is not used for any other purpose, so cops no abuse. So we can trust the measurements off that tester. But another tester in the same workshop wasn't being compared against the standard and was reading a good 30ish psi lower. When you're reading 100 psu but the engine is really doing 130, you can make bad decisions.

      More likely from tiny bubbles in the filler/putty. Maybe be less aggressive when mixing it. Perhaps invest in a vacuum chamber to pull the air bubbles out?** **I don't know if this is a thing for body filler. I see hardcore epoxy makers degassing their mixed resin on the regular.

      IIRC, the speedo on these is fed from the sensor in/on the snout of the diff.

      They were. I bought the AWD for experimenting but racing it would disqualify or disadvantage me from a few race classes. Def getting a FWD for racing.
