hey everyone,

yeah, had a bit of trouble. i got knocked back cos my rear wheels were too wide. 275/19/30. also, i didn't have the original sticker saying tyre sizes and pressures. so i did a bit of running around and found a guy in dongara who is pretty casual about cars that have big wheels and he licensed it for me in an hour. my original wheels have finally arrived from melbourne so i can keep them for a rainy day. i'll be back out at work on the 30th, otherwise i'd come down and say hello, and hear that exhaust of yours. can't wait to hear that!!! is it the parallel system or the gt lightweight system? had a look on the net for VISION R. can they get other exhausts or do they just do TAITEC? wanna get a few things but i better wait a while.

sorry bout your problem sam.

Hey Sam, Sorry to hear about your clutch problem. I have a friend who is the parts manager at a Acura (Honda) dealership. I get all my parts from him, but have SOS do the work on my car. I can ask him if he has that hose in stock and if so how much. shipping would most likely take nomore than a week. Of course I won't be able to talk to him til monday. Let me know.

Joe

PLEASE. I would be more then happy. I checked DALIs web and they have it in stock for $55, but please ask yous friend, I would rather go with you. THANKS
SAM
 
Hi Sam

I recently ordered a complete set of hoses and had them replaced on my car. There are quite a few hoses left and one of them may be what you are after considering the fact that my car is an automatic.

I will check with my workshop tomorrow to see if the balance of the hoses are still there. Will call you sometime tomorrow to let you know.

Thanks Woon I apriciate it. I ll wait for your call.
SAM
 
No problem sam, I'll find out tomorrow, Do you know the exact hose ? Hey Mook, am I reading your last text right correctly ? They will not License a car with those size wheels on it ? That's the size I have on my car (275/30/19) and 225/35/18 on the front. I ask because I do not have the original wheels and I sure dont want problems when I ship my car.

hey joe,

yeah my car has 215/35/18 on the front and 275/30/19 on the rear and he wouldn't let it pass with the rears being that wide. but he might have also been a bastard just cause he could and not pass it. he also said it was too low! i do have fully adjustable tien suspension on it but i was told it is no lower than it was originally by the guy who sold it to me. mate, if worst comes to worst, the guy in dongara who passed my car is john riemer, and you could get a permit to drive it up there and he'll pass it no worries. i don't have his number but you can ring dongara licensing and they'll give it to you. then you could continue driving to gero and show me your toy. haha!!

mook.
 
Hay Joe, its the CLUTCH HYDRAULIC LINE, thanks. If you have any problems with your wheels when you get here, I have my originals, which you could have to pass.:smile:
