  1. Is it still driveable with the vic plates on it? The engineers cert sounds about right if there is no compliance plate on it. It sucks that it's not there. Unfortunatly it's going to cost you a bit more to get it on the road.
  2. spotted a white 33gtst with a sau sticker and a support the navy sticker? i was in a bogan ford wagon so yeah, i looked like a douche when i waved.
  3. lol. I bought it yesterday. It's ok. But I'm not in any rush to spend hours and hours playing it. Kind of wanted a crazy gunfight after a while (which you don't usually get). And you get shitcanned for running over pedestrians etc. Not a winner in my books.
  4. hahaha GTR with a 6" lift kit and cooper mud terrains?
  5. I rang up thredbo, they reckon it's ok if the forecast looks good, but it's not worth the risk if you get it wrong. And yes legally need chains if it does snow. You don't need to have them fitted but you need to have them in the boot or something to put them on when the snow does fall.
  6. yeah it's the loom that plugs into the unit. I put the dog in the garage when it was absolutly belting down with rain one day and the motherf*cker chewed the loom now theres exposed wires everywhere lol.
  7. Hey owen i need the hicas loom that goes around near the diff (dog ate it) I'll get the vin. Thanks dude!
  8. Alright I'm in the area to do the Alpine way. (Kosciusko national park) I'm thinking of going soon, but is it going to be ok for skylines? It's not snowing there yet, but does anyone know what time of year you need chains? Obviously I won't bother if chains are needed.
  9. spotted an aston martin vantage near goulburn on the hume while I was driving down to wagga.
  10. lol that would actually be pretty funny Tez. ala jackass old guy style.
  11. yeah the app store is rubbish they got the new sims or command and conquer generals. oh and prone 2. i guess i could go with that. ah well.
  12. I've got a pretty much brand new macbook pro - and I'm stuck in a boring place for the next two months and want a decent game. I realise I own the worst possible machine to play a decent game. Is there anything out there that can kill a few hours after work and keep me interested that the little mac can handle?
  13. I know Tez but no one will buy! Getting mega low-ball offers all over the place!
  14. pm when your keen to sell mate. Im 32gtr shopping atm.
  15. dif is right. 1. press your own ammo to save $$$ 2. .308 is massive. It destroys worlds. There's no need to go that big unless you want to spend $10k + on a target tacticle and split roos in half from over a km away. 3. get a .223 or a .243. 4. Tikka is an awesome brand. can be expensive 5. hit up usedguns.com.au to get an idea for what you want re price over quality. 6. Land owners get nervous letting inexperienced people they don't know on there land. The alternative is to get your r licence and shoot on state land. Hit up the game council website - it's a fairly easy test and its more common sense then anything else. You just register for spots on the website when you want to go out and your done! 7. On a side note, start reading about what you want to hunt. Do a bit of study on how foxes/deer live and how they act. I say this from experiance for walking around paddocks for a whole weekend and not even spotting anything. The little things really count, how you walk, wind direction, cast shadows, topography, the clothes you wear etc
  16. Yeah even a .243 and then a 30.06 (which is a necked down .308) ammo is getting expensive, but not outrageously expensive. It's even pretty cheap to shoot big calibres if your accurate. You can get a decent under-over 12 gauge with all the fruit (auto-eject, muzzle brake, barrel selector) for around $700.
  17. .223 is still fairly cheap. Look at Howa build-it-yourself. You choose the calibre, stock and scope and once your PTA is approved you pick it up from your local dealer. Easily the best comprimise between cost and quality. Savage/ruger/winchester will set you back heaps of $. Try not to over-budget for the gun then put a shit scope on it. Try and do the opposite. You can make i shit gun still alright if you get get it to shoot straight, but a shit scope on an awesome gun is useless. Look at a brand called redfeild. They are chinese copies of leupold, and unlike performance car parts, they are actually pretty good. If you want to specifically drop wildpigs, you can't go past a big 12 gauge shotty, a spotlight and a crate of 200 shells.
  18. wow steady on cowboy. 308 is massive - if your going to be dropping anything smaller then cops i wouldnt bother - .308 will turn a goat/dog/rabbit into mist. My .270 with big grains can pretty much split a goat in half at 150-200m Your right about the .22 though. It's a good size to learn on and ammo is dirt cheap. What budget are you looking at spending? Have you included safe/scope/trigger locks etc into your budget?
  19. clays are good fun but the licence is a pain in the ass if you own your gun. what do you want to hunt mate? I'd be going .243 or around that area as a decent all-rounder. Steve do you need a licence for the clays? or is it that silly one shot with someone over your shoulder rule?
  20. At least it's the last unveiling massa will do for ferrari, or more hopefully, any f1 team.
