ok, let me know if i havnt done this right and ill do it again. i got a piece of rope and measured around the outside of the rim(not tyre included). it measured 1400mm. the tyres i have on are front- 205/55r16, back- 225/50r16. tyres were only just put on when i bought it so i dont know if they are the standard size. the rims are though.

sorry dude, not after the circumference, just the diametre, so in a straight line from the front of the tyre to the rear of the tyre...(cant measure top to bottom with the weight of the car on it...)

it should be... something like

u can make the rim size 1 size larger...as long as the profile is 1 size smaller kinda thing

and i think u can make it like an inch bigger than normal

so say a 16inch rim with 3 inch profile on each side of the rim

u can get 18 inch rims as long as its 2inch profile on each side of the rim

if that makes sense

and yeh i got 81 fines for each defect

but didnt get done for my turbo timer

but i think they figured it awsnt such a bad deal after already giving me 10 defects

LOLS

it was quite funny

because there was only enough room to write out 9 defects so he wrote it in the lil corner at the top

      My purchase experience was no where near as glorious as yours but still a significant moment in my life! Yeah that's a bit of a dilemma as to whether you bring it back or not!  Obviously a massive waste of time and effort to bring it back if you're only going to move there anyway!

      To be fair passengers who aren't silly and have been in proper fast cars have often been pretty impressed once you hit 4th gear

      I suppose that's true. Barring almost any situation, I'll never sell so what the market does is kind of irrelevant to me. It's possible I'd make most of my money back. That spreadsheet I mentioned? Maybe I could make back more than what the car's total costs thus far are, but the parts and all that is possibly a different story... Thanks for reading. It was certainly a good moment and just makes the ties to the car that much stronger. It's exciting that the option will be there to bring it over, however I have some plans with a shop that may end up keeping the car there longer, not sure. Coupled with the fact I want to move there and haven't solidified any path yet. So in a way, it feels like I'm in a limbo state that is uncertain; time will tell.

      No worries, everything worked out in the end. I just wanted to make the point that it doesn't matter where it comes from (I.E Australia), it can be broken or improperly built. I would still purchase from these companies in the future. B2R - Not certain how that finished, this was on a car I wired a few things and street tuned. I know the owner ended up shipping the motor back to Australia for investigation. Hopefully some of it is covered under warranty.  Turbosmart - I always pressure test everything that goes on my car. It's a habit from my career in oil and gas. I run two 40mm's and both had major leaks from the actuator to exhaust portion through the shaft. I returned both, they shipped me back two and one was leaking and the other had a 38mm top (40mm gate with 38mm actuator cap, no idea how that happens). Eventually after a lot of back and forth I found myself with two non-leaking gates. I believe this happens a lot more then people would like to believe but you would never know if you don't pressure test them prior to installation. Crank Motorsport - Issued a full refund and let me keep the seat rails. I turned them into scrap metal for other projects. GKTech - Shipped me out a replacement and asked that I modify it as per my idea and that they would do the same for a future revision. ATP - Can just needed a large shim to bolt up properly.  Haltech - They started an actual proper Beta channel for firmware's a few months back and stopped using the general public for testing. I'm now much happier.  Speedtek - f**k Speedtek. I would love to watch them burn.
