Inner West Crew Whoretown (toowong/st Lucia/kenmore/indooroopilly And Sometimes Sunnybank?)

If anyone is looking for work I recommend asking Tony or Hays Recruitment. Tony put me onto these guys, signed up yesterday applied for a few jobs and got a call first thing this morning. Oh well fingers crossed. Downside is working in the city although that means less petrol, less k's on the coon and more money towards the next car.

Evening chaps

Anyone know much about hubs? Specifically I have to replace some wheel studs on my rear left wheel (33 GTST), the sucker won't move (much like when Dan came and helped with the Laser :P ) and I've thrown everything I can at it...breaker bars, impact wrench, air ratchet... nothing.

Which way should it be turned? Clockwise or anticlockwise? I've been trying both in spurts but I'd like to be sure of one direction and just smash all my weight into it

Congratz mate!

Great to hear that Hays was able to help you out.

If anyone did want to see if I could pull a few strings to get them something then just PM me.

Keaton should have my email as well, so you could just grab it off him if he doesn't mind. :P

Was it a temp or perm role?

Congratz again!!

Nice score col. Now hurry up and buy a GTS-R and sell me the exhaust manifold and heatsheild from the RB20DET-R

Currentyl considering buying an GTS-X with a RB20DET-R in it.... tis a fine looking machine.

Hey guys, whats been happening?

Mate the wheel studs are a press fit so you need to push them out not twist them. Have seen it done with a hammer but this isn't the best way because the hits also smash the axle bearing and can cause it to get flat spots on the rollers leading to failure. If your going to do it this way then you should put a nut just on the stud to stop it from mushrooming. The other way you can do it is to use a ball joint remover although have never used one for this. Acording to the manual you can't remove the hub. Unsure as to why but. To reinstall space it out with washers and tighten with a nut to pull it back in. You'll have to remove the disk and pads to do this as well.

Hope this helps mate

By the way has anyone seen a 32 gtr box forsale around in brissy? Mine split a seal and dumped all the oil and now i've lost 4th syncro and probably cooked it :( Just after a secondhand one at the moment. Pm if you know where one is thanks :)

Cheers Matt

Lol i just opened that up and got no idea what that means or what it gives you. Mind you I'm just a mechanic so not really good at that stuff :)

I approve of this plan as it will hopefully result in one less iPhail in the world :)

This should be interesting.

My iPhone has turned to crap after the OS update.

Well, crap turning into crapper crap. Does a double negative make a positive?

In this case no

    • I haven’t taken them out of the cases yet    inside the box is this packaging which is pretty much like a massive blister pack 
    • Purchased a NC MX5 a while ago Basic suspension mods done, BC coils and Whiteline sway bars  New DBA calipers, discs and pads Added some 17 x 8 Konig Decagrams with 215/45 17 PS5's Added some typical NA bolt on's, i.e. full exhaust and intake  Added 0.5ltrs with a MZR2.5 swap, nice bump in torques  Found a detachable hard top which is locked in for a colour match with my local paint shop in Feb 25, this also includes some PDR as it has received a few love taps from parking in the local shops when in the hands of my Minister for War and Finances, me, I park nowhere near other cars and typically park on the street The little thing is awesome, I drive it everywhere, it handles like a dream whether I'm up it or just cruising  But now,  because I'm a idiot, I keep looking at turbo kits....... did I mention I'm a idiot Why is dose so appealing  All of the NA 2.5 glory, well.......until sometime in 2025 anyway....🤪  
    • I would not be surprised if you are the only person on earth that has the interest/desire to do that lol.  The Haltech base map is a really good starting point, the car will fire easily and drive very well, even on mild boost levels. To me, following your advice sounds like some sort of ancient Chinese water torcher lol (this is not an insult Josh, never change <3)
    • Those car show concepts from the 2000's and 2010's like the Floria and IDx were brilliant and should've gone ahead, at least one of them. But neither Honda nor Nissan are thinking about affordable performance any more, which is truly sad.  Even if Toyota's liquid hydrogen ICE development reaches the point where it's commercially viable and the infrastructure to support it, Honda/Nissan would have to wait until Toyota allow fee access to their patents to offer it with any smaller performance models they released to take advantage of it.  
    • A sporty manual RWD coupe with a IL4 Honda engine would only be a good thing I assume we won't see anything released for a few years though, unless informal talks and designs have been going on for a few years,  and due to the current, and future, emmisions and safety requirements, I assume anything "sporty" they would do would be at least some hybrid thingie And hopefully anything they are thinking of has nice lines, without lots of plastic and fake bits hanging off it like that horrendous FK8 that looked like it was designed by a 13 year old The other issue of course in the current market is cost, currently the type R is around $70k, a twin is around $50k Meh, I'm old and grumpy and would rather buy a older model car and waste my coin on that than buying anything currently available new
