      cool, thanks
      i temporarily just took out the torn grommet and just shoved rubber hose in the hole at an angle - seems like a good enough temp solution, and no hissing

        I wish i knew to flip my booster. I fought with the vacuum line for a minute, there was something directly infront of it getting in the way. Once I finally got the son of beetch in there whatever was in the way was so close it actually holds the line into the booster tight. Now I can delete the check valve and run 20psi of boost woo woo

            Before you fiddle your magic all over Sam's (or your own;) wheels, what are they exactly? They look kinda cool and I'll be looking for a set soon...

              SSR Competition, NLA sadly. Mine are 16" but Sam's are 17" hence the spreading of the love.

                  Go to Tire Rack and pretend you have a '94 Miata, I'm not kidding. You'll need 10mm spacers though.

                    Good to know! Im in Aus, no Tire rack :( But plenty of Mazdas...
                    I need to do something though, its winter and the thing is dangerous (mostly for the licence) on the original 14's in the wet...
                    Cheers!

                      In case you don't know this, challenging one's knowledge is a good thing, that's how truth is born. But now i am getting more and more inclined to think that with some people i should not even bother. Some close-minded people just prefer to stay in their ignorant bliss and take an offense to it when others try to show them 'the light'.

                      (btw, are you upset about your cam thread? i was just trying to help the guy to make the right decision)

                      Yeah I do have a problem with you and its funny how YOU are telling me to be a man and confront you about it but since you're too stupid to understand the message I'll tell you now. The problem is that you're 2 faced, you act all nice to my boss and you talk shit about him on the internet. On top of it, the arguement was about a bolt that came with the motor YOU bought. Considering how anal you are about everything on your car, you'd think you would go to see the motor going into your car in person before it's installed. On a side note, you read all this shit over the internet and forums and try to go 'track prep' your car even though the reason your not getting the lap times you want isnt because of too much weight, or balance..its just lack of driving skill. You should'nt worry about the grade 5 bolt because:
                      1) If you try to fix it, you'll fuck it up
                      2) You aren't capable of pushing the car hard enough to break the bolt (and if you fixed it, im sure you're ability to re-tap/re-thread the block sucks).

                      You're right, you shouldn't even bother anymore...because clearly you're not getting anywhere.

                      Next time you have a problem with something...deal with it in a proper manner before you go talking shit about people behind their back, without even knowing full details.

                        Wow, remind me never to go to your shop. If the floor sweepers are this angry, just imagine what the actual TECHS are like!

                          You must be some acne invested 16yr old fucking loser to keep qouting me and try to make fun of me...so since I had proper grammer you had nothing else to say. Get a life kid.

                          The funniest part is that your making fun of me, to defend someone you never even met in person. The difference is I know static in person and know how he is a different person over the net, and when hes in front of your face. Again, thanks for comming out.

                          P.S. Hows my english professor, thats some harvard shit or what?

                            You crack me up man, you really do. Are you so angry because your shop won't let you sweep floors any more because you kept missing spots?

                              I have no idea why you're getting yourself involved in this.
