Morning mang

Im guessing here, but i reckon the 88/88/80 is the amount of dish, and the 51/39/31 probably has something to do with how much brake clearance you get...

EDIT: Or possibly the other way round...

Cool thanx :)

It's still 5.7L's of pushrod shit.... If you'd want a v config motor that's kinda unique go the vq30det. 210kw's and 386 Nm @3600 rpm from factory :)

Such hate for the LS1s I never understand. Old donkey tech but it works well and it's pretty well packaged for what you get.

Can someone please look at this picture and tell me what the highlighted areas represent?

the A B C numbers refer to the disc type of the wheel which is related to brake clearance and the 88 88 80 refers to the amount of dish.

No tractors, no emos, no SAUQLD peeps, no boats and no gabnrs :(

Just a croat and some etcs. f*cking weak effort guys :D

Right the first way round.

I'll never understand how someone can rate an old oil burning, pushrod piece of shit that feels like it has turbo lag despite being a v8 (seriously drive an early model VT one) yet bag an SR

I bag SRs cause I know you guys like em ldo. Driven later modeled ones and they didn't feel laggy to me. I haven't driven many other v8s other than dads xr8 and a couple of dirty commodores but they didn't feel that much different. Dad's is a quad cam 32 valve v8 and it's a bit weird. It never feels like it's really going until you're up around 3500-4000rpm which I think is weird for an 8 but it still pulls hard.

I think the positives outweigh the negatives for the LS1 it's a pity they've never put it in a decent car. Opinions differ on this point obviously but meh.

I only bag the SRs coz I secretly like them :)

IF (and I stress the IF) I was going to put a 4 banger into something, it would either be an SR or FJ.

It's always about engine size with you boys :(

Boys and their donks...

If i was going to V8 anything and i couldnt afford a BMW S62 from a M5 i would have to use a 1UZFE, 6 bolt mains FTW

+1. VH45s are also nice if you want to keep it nissan

    • Corvette thread then? Don't say I didn't predict the future again. "I love the little MX5, I do, but I just want something a little easier to get in/out of, a little more cushy and some power would be nice - I miss the V8 Rumble... I found this clean red C5 for sale recently and..." Please just buy my car. You can fit people in it too.
    • What about renewable diesel and/or gasoline? I see some projects spinning up like de-oxygenating ethanol to make drop-in compatible bio-gasoline especially in CA. I still think the future is EVs and we should've all gone full throttle on nuclear power after the 1973 oil crisis like France. Despite 15 years of work in CA to reduce the CO2 intensity of generation with renewables our electric grid is still far worse than even "low carbon" nuclear power. ICE is pretty cool when you aren't depending on the stupid thing to be practical and reliable and cheap as possible to get you to work every day. It's kind of like mechanical watches or vacuum tube amps.
    • I just rolled over "my" first 10k km in the MX5 Every time I go anywhere it always ends up in a adventure to look at houses and find some random country roads I've been on leave since early November but unfortunately need to go back to work on 19 January Luckily though I still have a fair chunk of leave left to burn until.... Not that I'm counting 😁
