  1. Its heaps better now with a more restrictive exhaust, but yes, the powerband is a bit of a mess lol
  2. Haha, in my case, its lack of.
  3. I don't fancy the 5 figure EPA fine for not running one. I have a cat + 2 f**koff big mufflers and it still pops flames.
  4. alot. my AFM was rooted, but it still stalled when you unplugged it. edit: are you north or south?
  5. When my AFM died it was swapping between running super lean and pinging like a bitch, and super rich and fouling plugs.
  6. my immediate reaction is AFM, but it could well be the dodgey fuel. then again, I run mine down to vapour basically every time and thats never happened lol. also, check all the intercooler piping.
  7. there is absolutely no way I would put top shelf tyres on a daily driven car. As it turns out, my 32 is daily driven, and the 595SS gives me a nice daily drive, but you can poke a bit of fun at them as well and they are fine. For $140 a corner, I simply cannot complain. Keep in mind that is $140 fitted and balanced, its all well and good to buy tyres from interstate for XXX price, but youve got shipping, then fitting and balancing. I'd rather give my money to a local business who is offering a good deal anyway.
  8. The RE001's were 'better' than the 595SS in my opinion. BUT, keep in mind the rather large price difference. For what the 595SS's are, I would get them again. I don't think the 595SS is really that far behind the RE001's, maybe you should consider the 595EVO (which is one between SS and RSR) or even the RSR's. I think if you get the SS expecting them to be the same or better than the RE001 you will be dissapointed, but if you get the SS looking at the price gap between the SS and the RE001, you will be pleased. If that makes sense. haha.
  9. TBH It's one of the better tyres Ive driven in the wet... About the only tyre Ive had which was better in the wet has been the Bridgestone Potenza RE001 Adrenaline - compare the price of those to 595SS's haha.
  10. Damo whats with the advertising in your sig? lol
  11. I've got my email set up to 'push', so it doesn't check it on it's own, but I get it as my email account receives it. Sounds like it may be a network issue Damo, my phone is fast on the net pretty much everywhere. Edit: Just ask the people at Kadina who stole my phone and were watching Redtube on it LOL.
  12. Thats the number (well one of them) written on the tyre isnt it? I'll look tomorrow.

  14. edit: I'm just being a dick now. My iPhone 4 lasts about the same, 1 day with heavy usage, 2 days without.
  15. I paid $140/corner fitted and balanced for 235/45/17.
  16. I run Federal 595SS on my R32, alot of tyre for the price IMO. As for noise, I can't say ive really noticed them being noisy, but having said that I dont listen for it.
  17. No I think Android platform things are fantastic, I may even get one as my next phone for something different - Apple has had the same graphic interface since I bought the original 3G, but people who say how shit they are every 2 seconds pisses me off, because its just not needed, we get they arent thier cup of tea, we dont need to be told all the time.
  18. Your comments about Apple and the iPhone really entertain me. Please continue. Android owners clearly don't like thier phones enough to stay in thier own world.
  19. I knew he worked there, and I drive past most days but today is the first day I've seen the GTR there.
  20. Spotted Brad's Tommy Kaira GTR out the front of Munro's yard today, twice.
  21. He was asserting his masculinity.
  22. Last time I was blind drunk at Maccas at 3am a car smashed the order board down, and I found it hilarious. /Pointless story.
  23. Legally, thats essentially all you can do.
  24. I've heard they are no good on 20's. 2871 is the one you want. I think it's the 2876 that's a weird turbo, like the inlet and exhaust turbines are out of proportion, as a result it either has tonnes of lag, or no top end, can't remember.
  25. Whats this? A 56 year old charged with hooning? NEVVVVERRRRRRRRRRRRR
