  1. Amen richard... When merging, the slower you drive the smaller the gap becomes... Driving 101 f**ktards.
  2. yep... talking to aaron (slide) tonight, the dollar has caused him to jack prices on imported stuff numerous times, after absorbing the cost of early increases. Thats the problem with direct import businesses. currency fluctuation affects your sale price directly.. whereas retail stuff is absorbed by the wholesaler usually
  3. Hi guys and girls. Whats your plans after the Melbourne cup on Tuesday night? Come down and celebrate the execution of the infamous Bali Bombers at Bungalow 8 at King St Wharf Sydney. Meet at 7pm... for a few drinks and a feed to say c'est la vie and celebrate the passing of these evil bastards! Hope to see you there! - limecordial
  4. Kinda sucks that you cant change your user name now huh?
  5. spotted a white r34 gt-t (bcm-???) stopped at an accident on kissing point rd this morning.. didnt look like it had any damage..?
  6. Have a look at the trend over the last 50 years.. it will. Property is a long term investment. Of course the price will go up and down, but so does the stock market, cash, bonds and every other type of investment... with the eventual trend being UP. If you own a property for 10 or more years, you're almost guaranteed NOT to lose money, and depending where and what you buy you'll be well in front. On average property doubles in price every 10 years, and has done for decades regardless of booms and troughs.
  7. Why not just live in it for 6 months.. then move out and rent it out... Have your cake and eat it too
  8. I have... By a Castle Hill highway patrol car too!
  9. Fluffy dice + beaded seat covers are defectable now arent they?
  10. What..? Try reading his post again
  11. Must be a ghetto part of town, there's a freddo frog wrapper on the ground!
  12. I think the word you're looking for is prejudiced... not racist. Unless someone bred with a skyline and created a new race?
  13. Nope, if you read the image you posted it actually says that it's "varying the angle of the rear wheels in relation to those up front" and "sensing vehicle speed and your rate of turn"... HICAS still works in GTS-T's without ABS or G sensors so there is no way for the HICAS system to detect traction loss. Its simply calculated on the front steering angle VS vehicle speed VS steering rate of turn. It usually only works over 80km/h. It's definitely not a parking aid, how can it be when the rear wheels only vary by one degree? Someone might be thinking of the old preludes: http://au.youtube.com/watch?v=b0sVD17WSdQ
  14. Ahh cool.. sorry i forgot to translate "etc etc etc rod etc etc etc" into "with supercheap auto air cleaners on top of there big block 253's"
  15. Ahh no, V8's arent exempt. I was just using the BOV as another example of modification of the intake system.
  16. Supposedly its a fire hazard, and is an alteration of the intake system which illegal due to emissions constraints (ie. same reason atmospheric venting BOV's are defectable)
  17. happy bday shaun.. have a good one mate!
  18. If you have a look at siddr20's avatar (a few posts up), fog lights are the clear lights next to the indicator. On other cars, you could say that fog lights are any light other than the headlight cluster that shine from the front of the car. They can be yellow green or multicoloured, doesnt matter.
  19. They are keeping cars like ours away from the area for a reason - whether it be a valid or reasonable reason, thats another question. Most of the time it's because of tossers playing into the stereotype that the police love to hate. I reckon your anger is best directed towards the people that cause imports to be looked at badly in the first place, rather than at the cops trying to keep you away for whatever reason At the end of the day, it's only an $80 fine. You've still got your licence and a roadworthy car!
  20. Quite obviously someone who doesnt even own a skyline from the FS threads he's commenting on!
  21. Would you rather pull over a 45 year old guy in a CRV, and have to deal with the disapproving glare when you hand over the meagre fine for a stupid offence - or would you rather pull over a young bloke who you know wont look at you the wrong way for fear of his car being defected. He gets to feel like a big man that way. You should know better than to drive around that area in a skyline anyway. I'm from sydney, and even I know that its not a good idea!
  22. Bought a townhouse and moved in 6 weeks ago.. already paid off half of it thorugh a shitload of saving while I was living in the parents place (I'm 24, but got along well with my p's so it wasnt too bad! ). Remember if you're planning to rent the place out that you buy, you need to live in it beginning in the first 12 months, and for a period of 6 months or more to qualify for the FHOG. There are some valid points above about instability in the market, but I think that as interest rates are dropping, more people will be looking to buy - more buyers means higher demand, which bumps up prices. On the other hand, market instability and job losses could be cutting that demand for houses back down again. It's 50/50 imo so I doubt the market is going to be too heavily affected. We've seen a decrease in prices since the boom a number of years ago, but I reckon it's come close to bottoming out soon, if not already. I think this time is a good time to buy! Supposedly the developers of new houses will be tempted to bump prices by up to $21,000 to 'steal' the FHOG for new establishments so it'll be interesting to watch what happens with that!
  23. Phwoah... V nice! Good luck with the sale!
  24. Haha.. yeah something tells me they have about as much knowledge about going fast, as a snail knows about the laws of thermodynamics!
