  1. Cost me $70 for a seating capacity mod plate (2 seat conversion in my last car). I was quoted about $300 to mod plate a new brake setup.

    Wtf

    Or maybe he is the boss!
  3. Thanks for that, sure beats waiting in line at Queensland transport and only being given 3 names...
  4. I know somone who ported and polished their chainsaw and lawnmower
  5. It's a game where you score points for running people over I get the same shit in our BMW. Everyone cuts you off, tries to race, etc... These people have a very small penis
  6. Hey guys, saw you out there. The skylines were looking great. I only managed a 15.6 because I just couldn't get it to hook up. I think the coilovers are just too stiff for drag. The best 60 footer I could pull was only a 2.6, and this is on Azenis
  7. Exactly, and the insurance companies that cover modified cars such as Just Car are usualy more strict than the others. So ring them up and check it out.
  8. I think it's listed in the UBD under sporting venues. This is the map from the Willowbank website: http://www.willowbank-raceway.com.au/Image35.gif Anyway it's pretty easy, you shouldn't get lost. I will be there in the CRX
  9. You can buy the helmets pretty cheap. I have seen them at the motorcycle shop on the corner of Moss St. and the M1 service road starting at about $70 from memory.
  10. Hey mate, I will definitley be out at Willowbank tomorrow night. But unfortunatley I am also without pit crew
  11. Sideline Motorsports (http://www.sideline.org.au/) runs a great driver training day out at Mt. Cotton once or twice a year. It is cheap ($160) and covers pretty much everything from autokhana, to road course, to skid pan. I find that the sidline motorsports instructors have a really good attitude.
  12. What I would be concerned about is what is defectable in each state. For example, if you had an exposed (but solidly mounted) pod filter and drove to Melbourne for a holiday, could you cop the $600 Victorian fine for having an exposed pod? Or what if a NSW car has nitrous lines and nozzles (but no bottle), and drives to QLD for a holiday? Will they be going home on a tilt tray for something that is legal in the state of registration?

    Brakepads

    I don't know why people have problems with the greenstuff. I find the greenstuff handle the heat very well. Even with the front rotors glowing I can still get reasonable stopping power. No problems with the wear rate either. I would definitley buy the same again. Make sure you shop around for the greenstuff though. There is a large variation in prices. I found Brakes Plus in Capalaba to be the cheapest. Edit: no comment on the dust issue, I have grey wheels anyway
  14. $928 is a cheap price for door to door with a car that does not run. I know ppl who have paid a lot more. Not sure about storage though...
  15. Hell yeah, I thought tow trucks would have a nice smooth ride like a bus, but they don't. They ride hard like a car on Jap spec coilovers As for the dumb bogans throwing stuff at road workers... I feel more inclined to give them some beers for their hard work!
  16. TNT is often the cheapest, but as stated above you must have an account. Pack & send is expensive in my experience.
  17. No matter what goes on the list, there will always be workarounds (usually made by Honda ). And going for blanket restrictions such as "V8" or "turbo" creates the problem of including cars that aren't even performance cars at all.
  18. Exactly! They aren't even real laws yet although the media has been making them out to be. Seems like a bit of a publicity stunt to me.
  19. The exact same problem happens with alot of sports. For example, people buy riverfront land near a rowing shed that has been there for almost 100 years, then complain about the noise.
  20. Yep I have been up there recently too. Stone chips a-plenty. This is an extreemly dangerous move considering you have cyclists riding up there too.
  21. Hey everyone, on this bar: what is the purpose of the rectangle cutouts above the numberplate? Is it for lights or something, or just rice?
