D1 Spec - "long-awaited addition" - Toyota Carina ED, 2.0 liter, 1995
I have been thinking about buying nuts for a long time, because mine were all different) well, they didn’t fit with the casting in any way) but after repainting the ED-hee in purple, they spoiled the whole look.
And it was customary for me to find a replacement for them, at first I thought I’d take blue or red ones, because I didn’t see purple ones at all) I measured the seat for the nut in the casting in order to know the length of the nut to be purchased, I decided not to let them stick out, let them be flush with the “plane "disc, the length turned out to be about 40mm.
Well, I went to pick net) eventually found blue and red at a price of about 950 rubles. made a bet on the blue ones, someone raised, did it again, and so it continued until the price of 1100 rubles. then I thought whether to place a bet, in our city they cost 1800, here it’s already 1100 + delivery, is it worth it ?! And I open the GT section and suddenly I see open purple D1 nuts with a thread of 1.5 and a length of 40mm, without hesitation I put 1100 on them and truncated, no one else put on them)
I was just happy as a child)) here they came)
It’s a pity that I put the winter a set of casting and rubber (and a car in the garage for the winter period (
figured on the removed wheels) my pride) three-piece collapsible aluminum 18 rollers)
See photo =)
Issue price: 1 400 ₽
You told me about the nuts but did not think that it would look so cool =))) I even wanted to!
Discs Weds Kranze Cerberus. Of course, driving is a pleasure and it is indescribable), but on a smooth road, and if cracks and bumps appear, all this sadly affects the hodovke (
I never twist with pneumatics) I always use handles, I shoot in front of them, then I give them both cheaper and more reliable )
what wheels do you have, weight? How is your experience with the R18?
about aluminum nuts I met that it is not recommended to twist with an air gun at a tire fitting shop, they can get sick - it breaks the edges. It's better to turn it by hand.
Yes, go to the core, there are a lot of things)), only you can hardly find purple ones)), but there are other colors =)
beautiful nuts ... tell me the site where I got them. I was very interested ... there are a lot of things there?
Yes, I repainted the discs myself =) that was tinny) two or three cans of some kind of chemistry were required to remove the old one, then I removed the remnants with a knife)
The car is the same color, only darker))
