  1. yeah, i'd be at least diagnosing it before pulling the head off...
  2. Not much mang. Sick of work after 3 days back . Figured out I have another 3 weeks of holidays I can use, very tempting... Morning peep. It takes a couple of hours tops to do a gearbox (in a 31, if GT-Rs take longer than this, they must be rubbish ) Wasit?
  3. The old dirty-one probably isn't worth more than many cars on the road, but it is worth more to me. Just gotta us the right technique, I usually go with a quick tap to startle them, then let myself get a bit of ground before sinking the pedal. So far, I haven't been hit . Of course in the dirty 'coon I just plant it, but its brakes are so cr*p no ones managed to run up the back of it yet either . A fair enough point, but what happens when one of the a*seholes runs into my skyline while they are glaring at the speedo? I don't have the patience for that technique
  4. I good set will be a few hundred PER KIT. I'm not sure how much the cheap ones go for locally - I got mine ebay styles
  5. @adam: You can't put HIDs in the parkers, you want LEDs for them to get the same colour tone (ie white). Buy full HID kit I assume you mean both high and low beam? This will require two kits, as each kit does 2 bulbs (one per side). You'll struggle to even get two crappy ebay ones for $150.
  6. Yeah, you are giving humanity in general WAAAY too much credit there . While I agree with you it is a pretty easy task, a lot of people can't drive for sh*t, and I can see a large number of them glaring at the speedo 95% of the time they are driving. I just brake check them
  7. is it racist that everytime they talk about the "tourists" (pakis) in the cricket scores, my mind reads "terrorists"?
  8. hes out now, no second hundred for watto. ...let the collapse begin
  9. was waiting for cockney epicness, but he failed to deliver
  10. told you hughes was useless never mind, its a good day for watson to knock up a double ton
  11. heres hoping for a 200+ opening stand from watson and hughes one minor problem there though: hughes is useless
  12. Cruise contral doesn't hold a particularly steady speed anyway, especially older units. Wouldn't surprise me one bit. I read a similar article on a study in europe where they relaxed a lot of the road rules (ie red light = stop sign) and the number of accidents were reduced, because drivers were paying more attention to what they (and everyone around them) were doing.
  13. 30 million / 18? I'd still be happy
  14. I disagree john I hate chronic speeders as much as the next guy, but I would much rather drivers be looking where they are going and concentrating on what they are doing, rather than spending 95% of their time staring at the speedo to make sure they don't go 1km over the limit. If someone is clocked doing 63 in a 60 zone, in my opionion they are more than likely doing the right thing and intending to be doing the speed limit. On the other hand if someone is doing 70+ in a 60 zone, they are definitely speeding and the cops can and should go to town on them. Another step the "great" state of QLD is taking to make drivers less responsible rather than more responsible
