nerfbat Posted August 12, 2012 Author Report Posted August 12, 2012 haha.! and yeah mate. been meaning to rock around and check out your progress, and show ya then sorry. been crazy, wife working heaps when I'm not working Quote
flyinwall Posted August 12, 2012 Report Posted August 12, 2012 thats cool as i have been working on the door and rear spoiler for Ryan's GP turbo corolla so i havnt been able to get much done to mine (apart from that little bit of painting i did) Quote
nerfbat Posted August 15, 2012 Author Report Posted August 15, 2012 sweet mate..! and a lil update: got around to dropping off the damaged rim to Street Art Wheels for repairs it still held air...lol gonna cost at least 200bucks to fix her, but i was guessing that a new buddy club wheel 17x7 would cost about the same? tried calling tripple9 in Brisbane, but they didnt answer. then i realized it's probably show holiday for them Brisbanites... when its fixed or replaced, gonna wrap 2 new 205/40/17's on the back wheels. then tidy her up a bit, including the wiring, b4 paint Quote
nerfbat Posted August 22, 2012 Author Report Posted August 22, 2012 (edited) rim should be done by friday, and both rear wheels wrapped in new 205/40/17s also started on the broken wheel stud removed the hub and ordered a replacement stud for $6 from Street Art Wheels also looking at how to relocate the battery to the boot, cheaply. nfi if i will tho, just checking it out Edited August 22, 2012 by nerfbat Quote
Subaru_kid Posted August 22, 2012 Report Posted August 22, 2012 Should have left the hub on the car. - remove the caliper and rotor. - Get a ball joint (or tie rod? can't remember) separator to take the stud out. (cheap tool from bursons) - Use some kind of spacer and a wheel nut you wont use to draw it back in. Takes me about 10 to 15 minutes max to change the studs on a wheel and it always pulls them in nice and straight Quote
