Re: General discussion chat R30 Skylines had 195/70R14 tyres (post 83 ones had 60 tyres with 15 inch wheels). I think that the diameter is a little larger than it should be on these rims, though the width seems right (the rim itself is either 5.5 or 6 inches wide)
Re: General discussion chat The wheels on the second render might be a bit offscale, but the wheels on the car are the right size.
Re: General discussion chat Double checked, the aero wheels on the zenki RS-Turbo are 15 inches (i.e 16.25 inches for the rim radius), with 205/60.15 tyres. The rims would be 6 inches wide.
Re: General discussion chat Okay, then I think my wheels on the first render might be a bit tiny. BTW, does anyone have a good blueprint/ frontal picture of the rims on this car? The R30 that I'm making should have the ones on this picture, not the ones I've modelled.
Re: General discussion chat So according to one person, something being organic is just immediately better for you. Yeah, organic is great and all, but its fully possible to have good non organic food and organic crap. But then these are "food experts" that can't identify a mcdonalds.
Re: General discussion chat Interesting, I don't ever remember seeing another R30 with those wheels, perhaps they aren't standard. It seems that all of the Zenki HR30 models had the ordinary 14 inch steel rims, like so: You could also have the 4 slot alloys, also in 14 inches (with 185/70 tyres) Kouki HR30's were available with the 15 inch multi spoke wheels from the RS. Also, the Kouki HR30 retained the full face grille, only RS models got to have Iron Man's face. So yeah, I suspect that the wheels on that particular car are aftermarket (or off another car), seeing as no other HR30 seems to have them. If you wish, have a look on Kyusha Shoes for some of a similar style that could be fitted in exchange.
Re: General discussion chat ^^^ Thanks very much, That website is really useful. Also, when I searched on internet for 4-door Zenki R30's, I noticed that alot of the 4-door models had the wheels like those on the white one, Altho my blueprint has the 4-spoke rims. As far as I know, the multiple-spoke wheels are for the newer models of the R30. BTW, Do you have any frontal pics of the steelies and the 4-slots? I cant use my blueprint for those and I cant find a good pic of those anywhere, not on the site either.
Re: General discussion chat Thank god for the captions being very good. To be honest im more interested in the ratio of people who didn't say anything stupid to the ones that did. Since its an edited video with the aim of showing the stupidity i think its fair to say its a little biased. But i am genuinely interested to see just how many people had that sort of reaction. Im also interested to know if McDonalds payed for this or not
Re: General discussion chat I never really liked that video. Were they supposed to trash the person's food? They were trying to be nice.
Re: General discussion chat Hmm, I should stick around at uni a little longer after getting my degree. If I get the degree I can use the phrase "trust me I'm an engineer". If I stuck around and got a PHD however (I doubt it), I could use "trust me I'm a doctor". If someone says either of those things they perhaps shouldnt be trusted, I could say both
Re: General discussion chat Trust me, I have got an A* in GCSE electronic products just doesn't have the same ring to it Less than a year to university though...
Re: General discussion chat Chances are the situations in which I can use "trust me I'm an engineer" are mechanical related, not computer systems. Although I did use "trust me I'm an engineering student" to justify the piece of thin cloth (meant as a tougher alternative to paper towel but still rather pointless, you can wring it out and thats about it) I wrapped around the legs of the potwash bench and sink at work in order to hold up the potwash bench (welds holding legs on have split so bench wobbles big time). It did survive about 3 days, then somebody pointed out that actually in the next room there is a giant ball of string which might do the job better.
Re: General discussion chat I put a V8 into a Nissan GT-R on Forza 4. It has 515hp and stock transmission with 295/30R21's on the front 315/30R21's on the rear. 3.30 differential ratio. Front diff is open and the rear is 20%. It has 75% power to the rear. It's still good for 3 second 0-60 but has to be one of the best handling cars I have ever tuned. You can drift it like no tomorrow if you want or keep it perfectly inline.
Re: General discussion chat And this is why you should fear me IRL. Had a friend I met in final year of 6th form (which was a retake year in which I got stuck in the year below). She seemed to think I was a nice enough guy. Then the umpteenth PPI sales call of the day pissed me off big time. Should have seen her jump away with a look of horror. Online, eh it doesn't matter, I can be a cunt when I want to. Sure I've pissed off more than a few people here.
Re: General discussion chat People who haven't had their facial hair come in fully shouldn't do no shave november. I'd just end up having a patch of little pubes on my chin and a fuzzy mustache above my lip. I didn't even give a thought to doing no shave november. However there is also no fap november. Didn't give a thought to participating in that, either.
Re: General discussion chat I know this is a random question but, do you have rotary clotheslines where you live? I recently found out that they are an Australian invention and it just made me curious. (imported from here)
Re: General discussion chat We use tumble dryers, like the one you press a button on and it does everything. Murica.
Re: General discussion chat Currently at the point in my computing project of "shit, i forgot to do all that stuff" and "crap, that doesn't quite meet that requirement". I swear that every week is turning into one of those weeks and i don't like it
