A&Q about 350Z
Q:
Well, Kevinthenerd was right,the tire was still being cut by the fender even after I had some of it cut off,well we cut even more out of it out and it seems to be fine now,still could use some camber tho..
A:
haha.
A:
So you mean you looked at the tyre and saw where the fender had been cutting through it?
A:
Yea that would be our fault...stupidity...we checked the tire on the front right after i ran my heat race and it seemed fine..whew
A:
So about some photos of the car?
A:
Factory size tires pretty much never rub... ever.
A:
the tire is a 205 65R 15"
I would love to post some pics on here but i dont got a digital pic..ill update with pics as soon as i can someway...
A:
Is that the orginal tyre size though?
A:
Well according to tyrerack the orginal size is a 215/65 15.
So your actualy a running a tyre smaller than stock.
The chances of that rubbing are virtualy nil, especialy if you have already cut the guard back.
Now, are you also going to say that in this wonderful world of digital technology you can not get even one simple cell phone photo of the car?
A:
I have no idea what the original tire was,this car was bought used, it was a racer before...and yes i do have 1 pic on my cellphone but whenever i try to send it to my email it sais "Invalid destination address"..and i think it might of been the fender cuz I watched the other cars and the front right gets so low going through the turns.
A:
why dont you minimise body roll with a stiffer suspension and anti-sway bars?
A:
So, lets recap:
We have a guy who's been racing cars for awhile, has served on a pit crew, and comes from a motorsport family, whos running in a class that allows camber changes to the suspension, but limits tyres to stock sizes only.
He dosn't know what tyres he's running.
The Tyre he is running is to small, but still manages to rub on the guard, yet he dosn't notice it.
The guards have already been rolled to give more clearance.
And, he hasn't yet thought to invest in some better springs and shocks.
Oh, and his cousin, who is apprently a mechanic, dosn't know how to build a camber plate, or how to disassemble a suspension strut.
A:
do i detect a hint of disbelief here?
i'd stay and help with the question but i've got to do a top end rebuild of my '73 RS and source another set of four cam shafts.....
A:
You wanker, 73's had five cams. One intake, one exhaust, one midget, and two double helix's.
A:
careful with the language.....
