Guys/Girls,

Anyone know where i can borrow a Tap and Die set from like now or early tomorow?????

when i put my steering wheel on about a year ago i cross threaded the 19/18mm nut that holds it on to the steering column... never bothered to fix it until i got bored today and took it off (was originally too scared cause it wouldnt come off at all...) and now i want to put it back on before tomorows race... anyone know anyone with one i can borow for about 20mins???

Damn it, if only you tell me a bit early would have been good. I work at WURTH AUST so things like that is easy fix but i just got home from work and as you know i'm having tomorow off as well so ....can't just turn up tomorow at work for something then leave !

well ur racing so u only need to go straight

get the car towed there, then just race and have a shifter holding onto the steering thing or something

your gonna lose anyway arent you? wasnt that the plan?

p.s: buy a puppy

ha ha, I was actually starting to think "tap and die" was a metaphor:

tap the accelerator and the car dies

tap the accelerator and turbo dies etc

or

tap into the race and die of embarassment...

I will stop there :D

stfu gordon!! wheres ur car again? no not the clapped out ford.

dont worry it will be fine to get there and back i just wanted to finally fix something thats been bugging me for a year... but not enough for me to bother fixing rofl.

new forcast now... looks like its going to be windy with SOME showers.... so it should be good to go!!

seriously though Ni - throw in some teflon tape for good measure!

And good luck with the race - hopefully it happens this time :D

Regardless of who wins, you will have fun and hopefully crack some nice times too.

    • I used the radium thing, makes the whole parallel assembly a lot more compact compared to any other way of doing it 
    • Racetronix also sells those ethanol content sensor bypass blocks. Adapter, Flex-Fuel E85 Sensor High-Flow Bypass, In-line No Sensor (ADF-FLEX-NS): Adapters - Flex Fuel | Racetronix Ethanol content sensor are originally designed to be on the feed line. These bypass blocks are meant to be ran in the feed line and not return. The continental ethanol content sensors have a 3/8" ID and not 5/16". This is why they are ran on the return line directly in conjunction with a low threshold sampling value VS in the feed with one of these blocks.    Haha we think alike, I used both original feed/return for 8AN feed, and one of the Hicas lines as a 6AN return. I also capped off and left the other Hicas line as a spare. 
    • Interesting, I haven't read about the issue with oil getting into the speedo in the cluster before. I'll have to take more notice with mine. The speedo on my R32's when I've run factory diff and tyre size have never been accurate as far as I can remember. The non Type-M GTS-t did come with 15" 5 stud wheels and smaller brakes, but that's less than 5% of them.
    • Good to hear the condenser you picked up off my brother worked all good. Do you think there could be an issue with your AC compressor itself or the clutch on it then? I don't know a lot about them so I can't really help but keen to hear what it ends up being. Keep the build thread going man, it's nice to look back on over time.
    • This is a story of my life things, I learned eventually (thanks to someone calling me out) that my enthusiasm for discussing and sharing ideas that it came across as arrogance and I'm like... WTF?!    One thing I'm pretty sure I justifiably pride myself on is knowing that everyone will have things they can teach you, and you're always going to find out that something you think you know turns out wrong - you just don't know what it is until you get there.   Just the bursting enthusiasm that comes with ADHD when you hit something that gives you dopamine dumps can come across like you think everyone else is wrong or don't matter. But yeah, I'm a software engineer by trade and also do tuning in weekends and 100% have long had a reputation for  quickly making connections when resolving problems or forming solutions that I've sometimes had to take people form a long walk from start to end to explain how I ended up where I did when it's seemed "too simple" when I've stated my initial case, and had the "WTF" type reaction when they've realised how much was actually considered haha.   My reward is that I get all the curly problems thrown at me.
