  1. Before I write this; I will still say that I support this cruise and will turn up if it goes ahead - for Jeff However, think about it this way. We look to have about 30 cars going on this cruise (if it's all good), all the cars fit perfectly into the description of what the media has deemed as "hoons". Being in such a large group with such "full sik" cars will NOT help us. Also, if there are cops on every corner up there - wouldn't my above point just = more trouble?
  2. Oh yeah, some might disagree with me but after doing the numbers in both short + long term/s, I've found that the best option for finance are as follows (in this order): 1) Re-draw from home loan 2) Personal loan (if the IR is low enough) 3) Car Loan * I have left leasing via salary packaging out as it can work adversely if your salary level is not high enough.

  3. I'm in Finance; money is good, lifestyle is ummm questionable Pretty relaxed literally playing with money all day long (pity it's not all mine) How did I afford my car? 1) Save up a healthy $15k in disposable income (for random crap) 2) Do research into the car, finance and insurance. There are a lot of competitors out there who want your business. 3) Have a set plan in place for budget (in line with your pay frequency) 4) Keep a straight head when modifying your car. That's about it. Any of you guys know of an easy way into IT? Sounds interesting from reading what you guys do S
  4. Well, if everyone is up for this run then yes I'll go I'll just pack some extra "equipment" LOL just in case!
  5. This is the post that was of greatest concern to me. I am always up for some fun but I do not consider placing myself and fellow buddies in the firing line fun. Jeff, this is your cruise, I will be there if it goes ahead - you know that. Just make a decision and I'm sure we'll follow without dramas.
  6. Hey all... Looks like I won't be driving on this cruise; hitching a ride with Miss Turbo on the day. This could turn out good as I'll be doing a lot of filmin' Who else is going from Sydney who has no passenger? Could be good to float from one car to another
  7. $35 Manual Controller from the forums... there's a thread in here with about 500 replies saying how good it is My 2c
  8. Yes please!
  9. I probably go down through that road about once a week (Friday or Saturday nights). White R34
  10. Where are you located? And are you referring to Maxx? The guy in VIC? If so then he is selling them delivered for $220.00 Don't get me wrong, I am interested
  11. Thanks ranicx, remember to wake up real early and show the people of Gladston who's leaving the house
  12. Will be there at Castle Hill meet 8am sharp + 1 Someone kindly send me the address for the McDee's or else I'll meet up with one of the regulars
  13. Now that you say that, there was one time when a cop was behind me and I was doing this "dance" of sorts. He/she (was at night time) started to flash their hi-beams at me and come closer to the back of my car. By this point I'd left about 100m between me and the car in front so I could see the minefield I carried on "dancing", the cop thought I was drunk and was about to lose it when all of a sudden I saw his car bounce LOL! He kept his distance after that Saying that though, 4WD drivers shit me on these roads as they have no problems and want to go through at 100km/hr - spare a thought for those who do not ride 5ft off the ground~
  14. EDIT: Look at the letter properly... notice the use of language and punctuation. Then notice the lack of spell-check, I think you should pass this off as a stupid attempt from one of the kids
  15. What happens when you complain to M&Ms factory, or a Pepsi company saying stuff like "they melted in my hand" or "my Pepsi was sour"? They send you more... I say, since they complain about one car - why not give them more sl!m's idea is goot
  16. Straight down Parramatta Road to where the clock tower is, make a left and head towards Ashfield - WELCOME TO LAND MINE TERRITORY! Funny thing is that everytime I drive through there, I see more and more modified cars
  17. Hehe.... 600.1kw - NOICE
  18. Does it matter what gear the dyno tune was done in... I'm asking as the tune for my car was done in 3rd (tiptronic), just wondering if doing it in 2nd would've made a difference.
  19. Cool thanks... next tune I'll tell them to check the timing, will any workshop be able to wind the CAS up/down? Or do I need to go somewhere specific?
  20. CAS = ? Sorry about the questions, just interested to know. Autos are very limited in what you can do to tune them, especially in the R34 where the stock ECU is quite stubborn
  21. Can someone explain how the timing or "base timing" as mentioned above can be changed? Last tune, only the SAFC was touched, nothing about timing at all - just wondering if this would help me squeeze past 200rwkw (only out by 5.4rwkw at the mo.)
  22. My only question is, the "before-tune" figure was under 150rwkw, 147rwkw I think. Would this be a little low considering that the mods were already there? Maybe something to do with the dyno to generate a lower initial figure? Not 100% sure. When I first dynoed my car in "almost" stock form, it came up with 159rwkw... so it seems a little low. The current setup is getting me 194.6rwkw - maybe his final figure isn't the question, but the intial figure?
  23. Hey this is a dumb question I know.... but what did he do to the timing? I'm running SAFC2 as well, am interested to know what I can do to play with the timing
  24. Thanks for that Freeman... I'm currently in the middle of putting one together from the 2005 Show n Shin footage I found on one of the tapes. It's going to be a short doco about the event... There's not going to be engine sounds, but I've included a little interview with one of the judges who explained what they look for when giving cars points in competition. Will let you guys know when its done.
  25. Satanic in + 1; maybe 2 Since my missus is a member of NSW SAU, does that mean we get 2 guests free?
