I never have an issue... If it's a nice V8 or other car beside me I give the appreciation nod and we both just cruise off... Last guy who went to plant it stopped as soon as it started to spool and then fluttered massively from 2nd to 3rd... He looked over with a "I would have bitten off more then I can chew" But other then that... I only really got it from people I actually egged on, half the people who tear off at lights AREN'T trying to race you... I take off quck all the time in the work Jazz... I'm just driving normally

*Watches Cassbo fit factory front bar again*

Why haven't I? That's a $100 dollar day in fuel alone for me...

Probably to go go karting in hey... Or maybe they're poor avid golfers?

Why won't a socket work for the HICAS bar? Is the 30mm spanner for taking out the steer arms?

LOL, if the crim never had finger prints or DNA on the system, (And he would have had to have already had a prior) then they have NO WAY of catching anyone. As Cassbo said, they have your number plate, they have you caught in the act.. If coppers could walk on into houses as they were being robbed, I'm sure more arrests would be made, The detectives and Crime Scene coppers HATE shows like CSI and what not, as they're so damn full of shit in the way people are "caught"

Also, I'd do the oil filter relocator from up top... Once the inlet mani is off (It's coming off anyway) much easier access, plus the cross member and steering rack and engine mounts are in the way from underneath... And I'd love to see the hicas done from above...

A hoist makes it a million times easier... But it's all doable on well positioned car stands. (Well positioned so the bastard doesn't fall off!)

NSW>Victoria... I'm going on word of mouth from coppers I know.

Did someone say hookers and coke?

Doof: Let me put it this way... I'm an office worker... Yet I've done gearbox CONVERSIONS (Auto to manual) And a couple of engine swaps now... I can rip my turbo and exhaust manifold off in under 60 minutes, and give me another 60 and I have it all back on and bolted up tight ready to go. Inlet manifolds are piss easy too, as are cams, and timings belts. Cam gears are just as easy. Piss off the fuel pressure regulator, the factory one will handle it so long as you're keeping the factory rail (It removes one more headache!) As long as you read the workshop manual for installing things like the timing belt, exhaust mani, inlet mani, and cams, (Tightening patterns etc) then you won't have a single problem. Everything you have there is direct fit shit. Quick adjust ment on the ECU to get it starting, and head to the tuner... Really, for a slow worker, and some head f**ks, that's a 2 weekend job... (4 days) I would advise, go and buy all new tensioners, idlers and bolts for the timing belt, as well as the bolts that hold the cam caps down, and the exhaust manifold studs, you want the shortened ones. Also, I have a timing light you are more then welcome to borrow. (Hey, I'll come and spin some spanners with you too if you want!) But seriously, do it yourself! Oh, and my experience on the liner ranges from: Radiator changes, to timing belt changes, to changing heads, to swapping manifolds (inlet and exhaust) to swapping whole motors... I know my way around an R33 engine bay backwards... In fact... i've spent about 10 times more time in my engine bay then driving the car lately (I just keep changing shit of late)

Actually, that's wrong. They can estimate it, they can pull you over for it, if they book you for it, and it goes to court, these fines get thrown out, UNLESS the copper gets you to say how fast you were going... And they book you on that... This is why coppers so often ask you "Do you know how fast you were going back there?" or other such tricks to get you to say a speed above the speed limit... And their estimations are often way wrong... That ones from personal experience... And not one I'm going to share.

She still single? Hook a brother up?

I'm so not a clown person... and for some reason that sends shivers down my spine (And page one kills my PC damn you Sammeh!) But the clown must stay... And doof, they're your missus' tits aren't they? If I had a missus with tits like that and I could use them as an avatar I would...

I must have missed that last social dinner. Although, I hitted it up for the Texi Pre Drinks which was a really fun night. I'd be up for something like once a month/2 months/3 months, but getting right up to north sydney on a weeknight (Unless Friday) is a big no no for me.

Actually, I've been meaning to ask, what ever happened to the monthly dinners?

Well on 4 of my blocks (2 x RB25, 2x RB30) it was a matter of on the 25s, just completely unbolt the heat exchanger off the block, and screw the oil filter direct onto the block. When I head down to my mums house next I'll try get some photos of the RB25 block that's down there stripped. It screws straight on for me, on 4 blocks. From memory it's 4 12mm bolts that hold the oil cooler on, take it off, and my oil filter screwed straight to the block.

Not changing at all, there experiences range from assault, to rape, to road incidents. Most cases that actually go to court for road stuff are more your neg driving charges, of which it isn't State VS Person, it ends up being State and Person VS Person. And they're normally because they plead guilty and take some form of offer. MORON. You have the offer in front of you. Take it or try fight it. As to personal attacks. I didn't start it. You started claiming how it must be all bullshit. PS: Been in your shoes, I got out of it in a very lucky manner before the fine became that high... I know what it feels like... (Oh, and that was my first and only ticket too, apart from a single defect notice) Edit: And just so you know Wacky, even if you do have the whole fine dismissed, the court can't over rule the points that are recorded on your licence.

My loves... Track Days Texi Cruise and BBQs... Cruise and BBQs for cheapness, texi for cheap thrashing fun, track days cause they're just ZOMG!

Actually, you just unbolt it, and screw your oil filter on to the block... Yes, I'm deadly serious.

You mean a hydraulic one yeah Dunc? Not a scissor one?

Power steering disconnected is still heavier and mroe direct then pump connect and speed sensitive powersteering deactivated...

No, I know 2 coppers (One is living across the road, and funnily enough, his father and his uncle in law are both coppers too, but I don't talk to them) another is a best mates step brother. The other is retired for 10 odd years... And funnily enough, they all actually say the same thing, they couldn't be assed going to court, as 9 out of 10 of the cases they do end up in court over, end up being settled 10 minutes before the hearing starts... After they've sat for 8 out of 12 hours of their shift in the court room. Also, the in car video, it doesn't HAVE to pick you up. There is no RULES that it has to show everything. It is there as extra evidence if they want to use it. They don't have to. As Anna said earlier, go and sit through a few of these court hearings. You'll find one HUGE thing, all of the information on the LIDAR and how to use it etc, is a guideline. It is not a law, an act or any other regulation, therefore, no matter how many guidelines they broke, you're still not going to be able to use it as a technicality. Edit: When you get to the point of being bent over by the law, or at the least, still having to deal with exactly what you have now, plus court costs etc, I will be there laughing...
