  1. Unfortunately, he is for real Steve. I've reversed a few mods myself, as I'm not a fan of not having my Stagea. I've been pulled over a few times now in it and I've been lucky. Whilst the mods are only minimal (pod filter, boost gauge), it did come to the attention of Neil. He let me off and gave me a chance to reverse some of those mods, which I have done. Take the hint guys. The cops are all over Hanson Road, pulling over any car ... not singling out imports. Any car. Drive a blatantly defectable/unsafe car, or hoon around, expect to be noticed. Old japanese saying: "Nail that stands out in floor, is first to be hit with hammer."
  2. Wow. I'm surprised this thread hasn't been locked or flaming given. If this was in the SA forum it would have been. I too would like to see a 'sticky' where members have had "legitimate" bad experiences with workshops/retailers. People argue that is slander, but I call it "customer feedback". We should be warned before we get burnt.
  3. So because you're not getting what you want, you're being an idiot about it? Take a teaspoon of cement will ya. If you want the Govt to fund AIR then you sell the idea to them. Many have tried for years getting AIR up and running better, with no results. Just because you see no results, doesn't mean people are not or haven't been trying. Stop being so blind and such a waa-waa. Read post #145 again. What other state government do with their investments has no influence on our state government. Don't like it here, move to WA. Sporting stadiums (such as Hindmarsh) around Adelaide attract international events and therefore big $. AIR does not and never did, simple economics when it comes to where the govt will spend its money. See you do a better job. AIR is privately owned, so why don't you write a letter to the owner seeing as you're good on the keyboard. I've been down this road before and I know where it ends.
  4. Thats one reason why I've removed the mod stuff from my Stagea. Even the exhaust which has a big muffler and tip is very quiet for its size. I took it to the exhaust shop 3 times until I was happy with its noise level. Still got the cat in it too, and fitted a larger resonator, even has a new O2 sensor to ensure its running clean. My car looks great with the body kit and thats about all I need right now. I have my bikes and track days if I wanna go fast. Getting the silver S1 Stagea registered soon now I've replaced the waterpump, O2 sensor and timing belt. Engine and gearbox has been serviced. I'll be driving that around next month when the black S2 Stagea's rego runs out. The silver stagea is as stock as they come. I can't sell it, so I might as well drive it.
  5. Hiya Kellie Wassup? Got another pool party coming up girl. Bring bathers this time, so you don't have to take a dip in ya clothes
  6. There is a Devine display centre at Reynella. There is always someone there to speak to and you can see the houses and land available and put together a package there and then. When I built my place, I opted to go for a stricter lender (I had the leverage) to get a better deal in the long run. They'll present you with lender options, the easier lender will not necessarily be cheaper, so try going to a stricter lender.
  7. Just be aware its not just one application for everything. There are many individual applications for house, land, grant, credit check etc etc, so give yourself a buffer to finalise the deal in time. Prepare to sign your life away ... many times
  8. AIR is not owned by the Government. Not their problem. This topic has been covered ... time and time again. The onus is not on the Government to find you a place to "hoon". We have Mallala for that anyway. Its not that far to travel. Most people boast about affording $1000+ on mods, but can't afford a $120 track day. Far cheaper than a speeding ticket in any case. I have a double mortgage, and I can still afford to travel all the way to Mallala for track days.
  9. PM sent Ryan Wouldn't mind just double checking my timing. I can come to you no probs.
  10. I've done a search and can't find anything
  11. What accident was that? Got a linky?
  12. When it comes to builders, any builder for that matter, there are horror stories so you pretty much take your chances. I built with Devine Pioneer and had no problems at all with them. Their package is a perfect start for first home owners. Go for it! Enuf said. Keep in mind you've got less than 5 months to get the ball rolling. Allow time for your application to be processed with Devine, allow time for the credit history check etc, and the application for the grant is separate from the house/land package application, so that will take time also. Give yourself 4 weeks to ensure you can get your applications in before the kill off date. There is alot of paperwork involved, but nothing beats the feeling of home ownership. I hated losing my house which Devine built and then I lost some 6 years later due to divorce. I built it for $142K and sold it for $345K. It was well built, and I carried on with so many renovations and landscaping. But we've got two houses now; one which we rent to my mother, and one we live in and I'm currently extending. Our total house and land assets are worth big numbers now, and we're looking at another investment property later when we can refinance again.
  13. Over the holidays: changed plugs and did oil change and coolant change removed the HKS filter and refitted the stock airbox removed boost gauge put Apexi gear up on ebay ... not fitting anymore removed adjustable and got ride height at 375 front (340 ADR) and 375 rear (340 ADR) tested exhaust system with cat/box resonator/muffler and its quiet at 88dBA Should keep the officers happy Also ... I drank lots of beer ... and sold my GSXR race bike ... and got a buyer for the Stagea looking at it this week.
  14. Went out north thru Salisbury, 'Lidabeth and Craigmore on the bike yesterday. Man there are so many wankers who think they can drag off a bike Getting tired of it. Maybe my brother can move back down closer to the city again.
  15. Hi flo is the way to go atm. Too much police attention otherwise. Had a funny time last night with a handful of cops. At a breatho, and the cop had to ask about my bike, then more cops come over and for 5 minutes I'm talking to 4 cops about how fast my bike is I did ask "is this you as a cop asking or you personally asking?". Cop was right into bikes and would have talked all night. Had I been in the Stagea however .......
  16. I'm partying! Going to hang out with a bunch of friends. Riding up there ... gotta do a burnout at midnight ... if I'm not drunk Went for a ride with a friend thru the gorge, lobey, uraidla, norton summit and bay. A nice relaxing afternoon
  17. I see nothing wrong with that. What? Like you'd say "no" Know a few girls with tatts like that and they're fine girls.
  18. I got banned from gsxr.com for a year because I had a 100x100 pic of Jessica Alba in my avatar She was barely showing skin and it got removed, so I put it back up. I got a warning from a mod and it got removed again, so I put it back up. Its not porn you clowns. Saw one of the mods on a ride in the hills one day and had an argument with him, so he banned me. Another mod abusing his powers: "agree with me even tho I am wrong or I'll swing my mighty sword". Fail On another note, wonder if Nathan enjoyed being "smoked"
  19. Hope no one had big dramas with the cop's blitz. I'm at home enjoying my pool and scotch. Might be out for a ride thru the hills later Anyone who went to the cruise, let us know how it went.
  20. Ohlins are not height adjustable. To get some height you need to wind up the preload, which can make things bone jarring. I ditched my Ohlins and got ISC.
  21. Spotted a black s2 Stagea with gold rims last night on Anzac Hwy, rolling with some other (non Nissan) cars, including a wanker in a rotary. 4 door 808 type rotary had "Madaz" sticker on the back. Anyone know this fool? Got a few words for him about his driving
  22. Series 1 Stagea still for sale Apexi gear still for sale GSXR track bike still for sale Ebay sucks. Too many dumbass buyers Will relist again soon.
  23. Merry Christmas everybody!
  24. Gee, chill pill ... I thought this was Wasteland afterall. I think someone has had a dose of christmas shopping ... that shit will irritate anybody. God knows Tracy and I had a gutful of impatient and rude shoppers You silly woman Nene So does that mean you'll be over our place when you want company? Yeah think its something like: Ruby 5, Cops 0 Tracy and I also witnessed what appeared to be a drunk teen stumbling across Pultney St from Rundle Mall last night crossing to Rundle St. He disobeyed the lights and was almost hit by a cop car! A cop car! Then almost by a van travelling the other way. And I mean by mere centimeters! The cops just kept driving Theres our tax dollar at work there I've learnt that if you need the cops quick, just ride a motorcycle or import car around the block. They'll be there quicker that way
