i was in melb from friday and got back tonight

just HAD to take the 33 out for a drive after leaving it sit for 3 days

so glad im home now , got so bored at grandparents house

we got into Melbourne at hmm 10pm (Vic time).

yeah we left our car parked at the Crown Casino the whole time, too much walking

back and forth, but it was great.

on the way back from parking the car me and my mum walked past 2 guys, 1 said

"what do i do?" and the other guy said "well what you do is ask how they are and how there

night is"

i friggin pissed myself laughing coz well practicing what to say to a girl to pick her up

i miss Melbourne , i didn't get homesick so yay

[craig R33]

well got all the turbo and all piing etc put back on, gave it a quick start

to make sure it still runs

only thing i noticed is a big amount of smoke

hope its just cos it hasnt been started in ages.....

gotta tighten up all the cooler pipes and final bits ' n peieces, add some coolant

and it shouls be done...... i hope.

all this for one bloody gasket.

gtr was just on aussie top gear for a quick lap, killed everything else.

and hotwire they just paid out the legnum name lol

[Madaz]

yeah i thought of Lee when they put the legnum on the 'what were they thinking board'

[SLED]

Has anyone done pads on the rear with only 2 of the halves having metal tangs in the corner of the pad while the other 2 halves don't?

Anyone knows if it matters whether the pad with the tang goes on the inside or outside of the rotor?

Sample pic only, off a different make of vehicle;

[Madaz]

at a guess i would say it means like you suggest its a inside or outside pad looks like a locator tang too

[Luke_ENR34]

hey pete that metal thing goes closest to the outside of the wheel.

Thats how mine came. Dunno if it matters tho.

[SLED]

yeah it'll physically fit in either side of the rotor/caliper

[SLED]

[Luke_ENR34]

[SLED]

ahh good stuff Luke thanks....I better get back out there and finish off now.

Doing the rear coilovers tonight as well and the fronts tomorrow hopefully.....will post up pics later.

EDIT: Just looked at your pic Luke, that looks more like an anti-squeal shim that goes across the back of the pad......is that what you were referring to or were you talking about the small tang on the bottom corner of the pad?

[D_Stirls]

The tab is just the wear indicator. As 4 piston calipers should wear evenly (equal pressure on both sides and no sliding pins that lock up) it doesn't really matter where it goes.

It's the thing that squeals so you know that your pads are close to worn out before they actually are and you have metal to metal contact
