This is just an idea, i want to see if anyone is interested in this.

My idea is to have a "just in case thread". The idea is that you an post up items(skyline parts) that you have sitting in your shed, laundry, kitchen etc. so that if something happens to go wrong with one of our cars at an awkward time, or maybe someone has to go over regency, we can look at borrowing a part for a short time just to get things moble again. I'm thinking things like AFMs, coils, ECUs, stock intercoolers, piping, fuel pumps.... the list goes on. Items could also be bought i guess but that's up to the individuals to determin. I'm thinking of this thread as a reference to who has what.

There are a few rules that i have thought of to make it go smoothly

-the thead is only to be used as a reference to who has what, wheelings and dealings are left to PMs and the individual.

-only one post in the thread per person(use the edit function to update)

-no chit chat

-discussion kept to pm

-listing in the thread does not mean you have to lend items to everyone, the individual can choose not to lend the items for any reason they wish

-terms of the lending of the items is up to the individual. for example, costly items or people that you don't know may require deposit, photocopy of a licence or something???

Well, that's all i've got for now, if anyone has any ideas, comments etc feel free to post them up. If people like the idea we can ask cubes very very very nicely if he can sticky a new thread up, if no-one likes the idea we can scrap it!

Thanks for reading

Aaron :kiss:

edit. - sorry, sum1 took it. (standard 33 airbox - free).

edit 2. - just found a HKS (copy) SSQV BOV i used to have on my old car, pretty much brand new only been used couple months, and has an adapter to DIRECTLY bolt onto a RB25 (had a custom adapter made at ET).(cost just over $200 couple months ago with the custom adapter). Ill also give the universal adapter away with the BOV, which u can weld into the intercooler piping, so it can fit any car.

$150

maybe we should organise a r32 and r33 regency pack with std items like shocks, exhaust etc that we can have people use to get through, then all items are stored until someone else needs them?

Maybe like donate the items to be held at a single location, then lent out (with a deposit) as needed?

Obviously someone would have to keep the items to be given out, and organise it all...

    • Ha, I've never pressed the X in all these years incase it removed the notification for all Admins
    • I don't know, I've never done it that way, but 1. While it is an interference engine, there is still clearance between the valves and the piston at all points in the regular timing cycle 2. There is not a lot of distance before you can't catch the top of the valve stem any more I don't know if 2 is greater or less than 1. But 3. If it doesn't work out you are f**ked, engine is coming out to disassemble so it is a big bet.
    • Semi slicks are horrible for road use, just use a high performance road tyre unless you really need the maximum grip. Noisy, unpredictable (amazing, until they are not), expensive due to very high wear and not good in cold and particular wet. And yes, it is a thing to store cars on stands instead of tyres if you know they are going to be parked up long term.....but who ever realises that a short park is going to stretch into years before it is out again!
    • I know in Australia you'll definitely get above 30c. Parked in the shade in Summer you'll be above that. 😛 But in cooler climates, you might get that warm driving on the highway for a bit, but you'd never get to full heat temp. I'll try and find some of my historical tyre temps between Aus summer and winter (be aware immin the warmer area of Aus too.)
    • I get that taking off the head is best but that's a bit much for "just" valve seals. I was just under the impression that one would be able to rotate to TDC and be able to temporarily drop the valve without losing it and effectively having to remove the head to then recover it. I never knew people actually pushed rope into the cylinder to do valve seals hahaha So just to confirm, just going to TDC will not work? In that case I know when I do valve seals I'll maybe just remove the head and do some other things while I'm there, or just wait until I do an engine build.
