  1. Since i got the yellow sticker on the line i have had nothing but hassles trying to pass it. One inspector says one thing, another says something completely different. It has been over 3 times and failed each time for something completely moronic, If i were you, pay the rego... but im not. Pends on your budget, They will go over the car with a fine tooth comb. If its been in an accident and there is some significant damage the adding of pit stress is not worth it.
  2. I have a couple of friends with WRXs and they all wished they bit the bullet and purchased the sti. Their main concern is the gearbox's in the wrx are considerably weaker than that of the sti. Cost 2k a pop and one of the weakest points in the car. getting the sti will save you in the long run aslong as it hasn't been thrashed to all tits. have a squiz around some of the wrx forums around, the habibs should be able to offer you reasonable "fullysik" advice
  3. angry sex is great

    lol at emo for all those who have been in that situation...
  5. pm sent fritter
  6. I dont think i necessarily meant webcams, but I am sure there are USB adaptable cams out there for use.
  7. pronounced "jelly-n" jel-e-n yes?
  8. Brother is in the states and got one in. I got a copy sent straight up. Jarrad when you back in town? hit my up on msn
  9. I just got LP's new album Minutes to Midnight there are a couple of songs that go true with the old LP ways and I enjoy them immensely however the other 8-9 I feel its the beginning of the end. Everyone that i have demoed it to are quite disappointed with it? Anyone else?
  10. I'm sure the cops don't care that much. The police hold enough respect and knowledge for the common driver to be able to differentiate between an import enthusiast and the local "hoons". (looks around the room in silence) Although assumptions are ALWAYS made. I know we all count urban dictionary as a leading source for referencing; the description of a hoon is: "1. To travel at speed in a confined area, or do burnouts on a public road in traffic .. 2. To show off in a dangerous manner, mostly with a vehicle or engine powered item .. Used in a sentence: Look at that bloody dangerous hoon!! (YELLED IN ANNOYANCE AT OFFENDER).. YA f**kIN' HOON!!!" The cops will treat us exactly the same next week as they did last week. Today Tonight, Chaser's War or what ever, it doesn't matter if its for good or for worse it will not change. As long as the politicans are trying to: 1. Cut the Road Death Toll 2. Justify Multinovas as life savers and not revenue raisers. 3. Crack down on Speed. 4. Make Money. They will use the police to find scapegoats (ie us), target them to attempt to eradicate their shortcomings(ie the above 4 items). So yes you can complain to the media watch or whoever about the stupidity of the 30 minute programs like Today Tonight but for me I am going to masturbate with a cheese grater as it will be more productive. As for cruises etc, the police will always be there. From a resource point of view, it is the easiest way for revenue raising (speeding fines and defect stickers) with the least amount of man power needed. If you're car wont pass do what I do; get a yellow sticker so they cant touch you or don't come. My two cents. peace
  11. Excellent install. So neat and tidy and not to ricey. You have given me a guide for my install when I get the time and chance to complete it. Did you have a problem with installing the splits re depth
  12. go the 5000, its 5000 times more l33t.
  13. possible option; cameras to carputer for storage, procesing with spftware? I dont think you are going to get a decent bang for buck option for storing the footage. the cameras you showed me on the r31 seemed alright to test for number plate and parcelshelf installtion. Wonder how they would perform for night runs. This is how i would rig it up: 4 x USB Cameras ---------------> Carputer-----------------> 7" TFT Screen for activation and deactivation. Carputer-----------------> CD/DVD Player------------------------------------>Speakers/amps and all that jazz. Carputer----------------->Storage: Porn, Music,Movies, and Cam footage. Set you back about 1K for inital setp (not incuding stereo, but we could have fun with that). the comp doesn't need to be huge on processing power (2ghz a 1gig of ram wiill be very sufficient) and HDDs are as cheap as your mum on a sunday night with a 2 for 1 voucher. So that maybe your best option. In the end if it doesn't work we can use the parts elsewhere. The carputer will need to have has many usb slots as possible, maybe get a usb 4 in one adapter or something as you will need 4+ for cameras, 1 for usb stick/external HDD data transfer or you could go wireless here. But during the tests we will definitely beable to fine tune the necesites. You will probably be able to record the footage from each camera individually to a folder called "dmnts l33t drivingz0r!!!11!one" then you could l33t hax it up to what you want later. Grasping at straws but in theory it works and quite simply very user friendly. it would be fun as hell to install and test. If you want you could hold out for me to do it first, but I have soooo much more to do to the goat before I even contemplate doing this. Peace
  14. Still watching and waiting.
  15. Internet thugs ftw. I'm yet to meet anyone from SAU.

  20. each to their own mate.
  21. Just pay the $200 and get it wired correctly.
