Cool

Paul be a star and show me a pic of the spanner/tool used to tighten the centre lock. Im finding it hard to picture how you'd torque them up right!

Is it like a huge socket or what??

Cheers

Andy

I dont have one YET ,,Oh how my fingers hurt

GARETH T

a big socket,,, on a even bigger torque wrench LOL

wheels look fantastic

lamb chops

Very nice, what hubs have you got there? Are they puka jobies or bolt on to the standard hubs like mine?

M K

VERY NICE

do they have some sort of split pin to stop it coming undone as theres only the 1 huuuge nut now

Andy_R

iTrader: (3)

Cheers lads!

I keep visualising the wheel type key that TSW used to provide, like on a set of Imolas I used to have

It would be good to see the real deal!

Mr RS500

Bolt on jobbies mate from Phill allenby

I wanted BBS wheels like yours but just wont pay the sort of money they go for

Mr RS500

iTrader: (6)

Thnk about it mate ,,why would one big nut come undone any easier than 4 little ones

Plus the drivers side is a Left hand thread

No split pins

M K

iTrader: (9)

yeah i agree but its a bit worrying you only get the 1 chance to do it up as there aint 3 more to hold the wheel on if you forget

Mr RS500

iTrader: (6)

To be fitted to this ,,when i finish it

Going to be blasted and repainted soon

This was built from a brand new shell and never used

rsnissan

thatss going to mint when finished will be so much cooler that an escos on track

ian sibbert

lamb chops

You need one of these Paul, Look in the foreground bar and socket

MikeR

Paul what else do you do other then break knackered old fords ??


Just nosey cause you have some seriously nice toys


Mike

coco16i

I was kinda wondering the same !!!!!


Seems like you have a small fortune's worth of seriously nice cars so there must be rather good money in breaking old cossie's and the like !!

Seem like a top bloke and all and never hear you bragging about the cars you have, unlike certain other users on here ( well one in particular )

Andy_R

iTrader: (3)

Mint car

My curiosity about the bar & socket is now well satisfied cheers for that HUGE bar

coco16i

Is the 14lb hammer to help loosen the big nut as well as using the long bar !!

jacko

LOL,,

House is paid for ( lucky i bought my house 10 years ago when they were cheap )
No kids , i dont drink or smoke and always had high paid managment jobs before i started breaking cossies

I have worked hard and saved my money to get my house paid for ,,once thats done your sorted realy ,,I havent made a lot of money from breaking cossies , its been more of a hobby thats paid the bills and enabled me to get some nice parts for my toys cheap

Thanks for the nice comments

MikeR

Lol sorry for being nosey, but i guess you are proof that there is life after morgages out of interest what did you do before ?

when you are the best at what you do,you can enjoy the fruits of your labour-and paul does.top collection of cars and its ever growing.

im very very jealous

Mr RS500

iTrader: (6)

Lol,
I was paintshop manager for one of the biggest coach building companies in the world , over 100 painters to meet the production targets , now that takes some looking after , but the wages reflected

I also run the finish department for the same company , responsible for getting busses and coaches to the customers on time ,, you only have to think about the shit that hit the fan if mr WA didnt get his 30 or so coaches when he wanted them
A great job that paid very very well , but i did many hours and had a lot of stress , but it was a great job that put me in a very nice financial possition
I worked hard at a very young age and never lived beyond my means , i never had a credit card or even a cheque book until i started NYRS Spares

I feel for the youngsters today as house prices have made life quite a bit harder than i had it when i was starting out

I still live in my first house , a 3 bed semi in the country with a massive garage and quite a bit of land , only 3 neighbours ( who i dont speek to ) lol, and i think im here till the cart me off

How exactly does the wheel fix to the hub? Do you need a modification doing to the hub? Ie, that silver shaft? Has that got a thread on it etc?

Does look awesome though.

The Centre lock hub is bolted like a wheel to the main hub, then its just a case of sliding the wheel over the shaft and doing up

_DAN_

Ah, I see what you mean. So it obviously spaces the wheel out a bit as well then?
