    Wheel Nuts Recommendation

    in Wheels

    Posted

    Hi,

     

    My locking wheel nuts are worn and rusty. I need new sets all round. Unfortunately, I'm not sure which ones I need.

     

    My current setup are Inovit S15 18" with 20mm Spacers.

     

    I purchased a set of these from Halfrauds to test but the thread was too wide...

    I've attached some images of my current nuts. Just want to make sure I order the right ones that will fit.

     

    Any advice is much appreciated ;)

    Anyone work in the rail industry

    My friend is a train driver.

     

    From what I saw of his experience it was a massive uphill battle! It took him a very long time and lots of applications to get into the job. He then had at least 6-7 years worth of training and shunting trains around the yard before he was ever let loose on a real train. I was very surprised by the amount of work involved in becoming a train driver.

     

    My aunt has worked in the ticket offices pretty much her whole life. Shes seems to get great benefits, discounts and really really good overtime pay. They are also very flexible with her hours which is good for her as she has a daughter to look after. She seems to enjoy the job. But she has said to me in the past that they will always try and hire internally first (I suppose like a lot of companies).

     

    That's pretty much my 2 cents. Hopefully your'll be able to take something from it.

    Centre Caps for a set of Inovit ST16's

    Rota Grid Replicas :lol: :lol: :lol:

     

    but no serious measure the hole and send rare rims and email

     

    Do you have another term for something that designed to blatantly look like something more expensive? ...Even takes the same centre caps. ;)

     

    Thanks for the advice tho! From what I've read they seem like a good company to try and source these from.

     

    It's so annoying they obviously has some nice 'Z' caps at some point! There must be someone out there selling them. The ones in the pic I posted would be so perfect.

     

    lmao @Maddog that's pretty inventive ;)

    Centre Caps for a set of Inovit ST16's

    I have a set of 18" Inovit ST16's on my zed but they are all missing centre caps.

     

    After doing some research I found the following thread...

    http://www.civinfo.com/forum/wheels-tyres-suspension-brakes/117376-where-get-invoit-centre-caps-similar.html

     

    Where the guys talking concluded that Rota centre caps fit these wheels... which makes sense as these are pretty much Rota Grid replicas.

     

    Does anybody know where I can get a set of Z centre caps which would fit Rota Grids?

     

    I have looked everywhere but cant find anything. They must exist though as this is a picture of my actual rims (before I bought the car)...

    Bodybuilding.

    in Off Topic Discussion

    Posted

    Im no bodybuilder but I decided to get my ass back to the gym back in May. My main focus was to drop weight but eventually build. I'm almost where I want to be regarding fat I've dropped from ~21st to now about ~17st (bearing in mind I'm over 6'5") im now sitting at about 17% body fat. I'd like to get down to closer to 16st and 10-15% fat which will probably take me until just after Christmas. Then the real building begins! I'm looking forward to that bit and would be great to get some tips of you guys as you seem to know what you're doing :teeth:

    Installing Eonon Double Din Android 5.1 Head Unit

    in I.C.E & Electronics

    Posted

    Hi All

     

    I'm sick of my Bose unit skipping and heard a lot of good things about the Eonon Android 5.1 units.

     

    This unit can be seen here...

    http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/G2150F-Android-5-1-Double-DIN-6-2-Car-Stereo-DVD-Player-GPS-Sat-Nav-CD-WiFi-E-/201677445610?hash=item2ef4e999ea

     

    I am trying to work what parts I am going to need to get this fitted. The guides on this forum all direct you to purchase adapters through SextonsDirect.... which doesn't seem to exist anymore, well their website isn't live anymore.

     

    I have found a company on eBay called Dynamic Sounds which seems to sell steering wheel control adapters and loom adapters for the Zed but I honestly can't work out what's the right one... or even if their is a right one

     

    http://stores.ebay.co.uk/Dynamic-Sounds-Ltd/_i.html?_nkw=350z&submit=Search&_sid=90591416

     

    Any advice is greatly appreciated.
