Steve, My clutch is 8mths old and is 100% fine (Daiken Exedy Organic Sports Clutch). My tyres are 6mths old (5,000km).

The officers that attended the accident scene.... how many were wearing the bright yellow vests ? If none, mention this to them and watch their face cringe /edit Mums reaction after reading your post "Absolute bullshit" haha

Hrmmm some of you guys need better quality tyres i think either that or i just need -alot- more power. My setup is: Koni front/rear shocks Struts front/rear Pineapples (traction setup) Michelin Preceda 225/50/16 @ 38psi (nitrogen) ~180-200 rwkw (180 on CRD and 200 on UniGroup) so its relatively stock setup i guess. I can accelerate in any gear on any dry tarmac road and not even get a hint of wheel spin. If I take off from a set of lights like a normal volvo driver (ie, 800rpm) I can use 100% throttle and it just sticks and goes. The -only- way I can get wheelspin is to "drop" the clutch from about 1700rpm and above, even by slipping the clutch their is no loss of traction. Using your dodgy no name tyres you got from the compliance place simply doesn't cut it. The previous tyres I had on the car (20,000km old) were some Faulken tyre and they would give me non-stop axle tramp in 1st gear, they'd tramline all over the place and good luck slipping the clutch or even dropping the clutch. Tyres make an absolute -massive- difference. In the wet if i take off like normal with 800rpm (idling level) and then i put my foot flat i'll get axle tramp depending on how wet the road is and how bad the surface is but it doesnt just fry the rear end like some of u are saying.

Mate the skanks are all water drenched from the downpour

...considering it takes me 30-40mins just to get to the meeting point Being a Westie does have 1 or 2 bad points, they can't all be good.

I'm using the DBA4000 + RB74's + Comp2's on my car and even after driving to Wakefield Park and back they are still extremely clean. Not too sure what this setup will be like when I hit EC after everything gets alittle warm but im happy with it all so far.

Unless the sun finds a way to get through I have my doubts about tonight. /me waits for Max Payne 2 + Commando's 3 to finish at home

You could all do us a favour by instead of uploading images to the SAU server host them on your own ISP's server (whom you pay a monthly fee to). That way when someone opens a thread which contains your images instead of it hogging all of the SAU resources (which 99.8% of users haven't paid a cent to use) it will hog your ISP's resources (which are far far greater than SAU's) and it will make everybody much happier. If you don't want to just "hand over money" then next time your at an SAU gathering help out another way. Myself and another NSW user bought a 30pk of coke cans for the last dyno day which would have made bout $15 profit after costs.

This might sound dumb but why buy a 2nd hand GTR Fuel pump which could be anything up to 7-8yrs old when you can buy a brand new Bosch which will flow more and cost the same price ?

So who we got going so far ? 2rismo make a list man, i havent read of any meeting spots up here yet...

Don't laugh that happened to me last time. Whats even funnier is within 3km of leaving Thornleigh I was already out of range going thru Galston Taking a wrong turn and not having good brakes doesn't help haha I didn't catchup until about 20mins later. /me removes his speed limiter :bahaha:

Are they 225/45/17's all round? Could get nice 245-255's on the rear of those couldn't you ?

Remove any 'sent' PM's too.

Just think of the echo bouncing off that building behind the burnout area

At a guess i'd say they are something like this:

I've been on the last 2 Terrigal runs and never even seen a cop let had trouble from cops (and we were parked 100m from a cop shop).

Geeze I couldn't keep up last time we went and I was going full tilt (I thought). What are we going to do at Gosford when we arrive? Watch a car load of girls do 16 laps around the block like last time or is their a decent beach or something? Its a pretty long drive too.

I'm trying to organise a ladie(s) to come along stay tuned !

Very nice, got a pic of them on a car ?

Interesting cruise.... I could be in
