lol luke, did you remember your handbag :)

yeah had a good day overall today, sold abit at work, made some decent money and then had the win tonight. LOL and we even scored a couple of free drinks cause we had to wait while some dick who thought he was a mafia boss or something tried to give the boss there a serving for dodgey food. Boss gave him his money back, told them it was home time for them and not to come back, was the best handling of a wanker customer i have ever seen!

No,

I was trying to stir him up in the daily on the way home from work last night but he wasn't taking the bait.

It looked like he was running staggered rim widths, i was just wondering how his ATESSA is going? :)

staggered rims are fine if you have the same rolling diameter

staggered rims are fine if you have the same rolling diameter

Yeah that right but if you have say a 10 inch rim and an 9 inch rim if you don't run the 1 size tyre ie 245/40/?? on both them (i.e 1 stretched one not) you will have problems; and even then if you have a heap of stretch on one and not the other that will effect your rolling circumferance as well.

Sort of correct on the too much stretch

but you can run a 225x45 front on a 8.5 and 235x40 on a 9 inch

there are more width height combo's you can use to get the same rolling diameter but with a inch difference it may be harder to match

Well acording to my calculations there is a 50mm differance in the rolling circumferance between a 225x45 and a 235x40, there's a 15mm differance in diameter.

    • Hi everyone, just looking to see what's available in the GTR seat options, testing the waters on what's available. Wanting a driver's seat to replace my old school OG jap race seat, going to re-register the car so need a factory seat. Prices currently seem to go from $300 to $2k for a driver's seat. What's options are there, that's good condition and actually a realistic price? Located Brisbane. Thanks
    • Are these a plug and play setup, and do they need a tune, like a haltech ecu etc? Thanks
    • Nice work on the paint. Those 3 studs are long as. 
    • Hi everyone, still chasing a bunch of this stuff. Thanks
    • Been over 2 months since I have done anything on the S15 and had a day off today so got stuck into mounting the radiator and intercooler. I ended up using factory bottom mounts as bolted in and I did order some gktech top brackets but didn't work with the PWR radiator so made up some with aluminium flat bar. Spent way to long on them but pretty happy how they are. Next job was the intercooler. Used some more aluminium flat bar and did the bottom mounts first. Top was easy as just one long piece and 2 90 degree coming off rad support and welded them on. The bumper support required some notching to let the outlets sit where I want so will add some reinforcement later to strengthen it. I have also bought ecu and waiting for it to arrive. Went with a Link g4x Xtreme but will be adding a ptmotorsport expander to add a few extra inputs over CAN. Went through a few different configurations on pclink to get what I want to allow future expansion for sensors and gearbox upgrades. Ordered gktech rear arms but looking at the hardrace lower control arms to have some extra adjustment too will see how the alignment looks after first setup. Got 2 more weeks of work before shut down and will have almost 4 weeks to work on this so planning on hopefully firing up mid January.   Also bought a 2015 brz with a heap of good gear, did noosa hill climb a month back. Owned it for 3 days changed alignment and sent it. Finished the weekend 2nd in class and only .3 off the 180sx best time last year. MCA Red coilovers, gktech rear lca, bolt on lock kit and tie rods, whiteline toe arms, cusco 1.5way diff and 4.5 ratio, endless brake pads, headers, exhaust, perrin intake and e85 tune. Electronic steering adjustment, nankang crs with koya wheels 17x9 +35. Have bought rear traction arm and relocation kit, extended studs and v3 tie rod kit. Planning on also getting flex tune as lucky to get 300km a tank with e85 and short ratio. Car is a heap of fun to drive and super easy to work on. AC in the line up at Noosa was mint in 35degree weather.
