I hear its a great fertiliser.

I don't see the problem with it, but then again i dont see the point either. If you think it'll look better then go for it. GOOD rims aren't cheap.

car turned out to be fine, must of just been too hot yesterday after a hard day at the cruise. Definitely in now.

long as my car isnt irrepairable i'll be there, *fingers crossed*

lawl poser mobile trueno, that picture always comes out.

shouldnt be an issue. If anything they may whinge about the light being on. If you check the HICAS tutorial on the main forum though it will tell you how to stop that.

I've got no problem giving you my phone number if you want to find out where we are at whatever time. Pm me if you want it.

Will be there for sure. Sundays my only day off:P

I have work on saturday but we could go down after the cruise on Sunday np?

That is pretty good man. Yeah when my premium/excess starts to come down to a more sensible level I will take up cover, but at the moment its just not worth it.

I sincerely hope you were joking.

I have the exact same bush leaking, anyone have parts numbers? links to tutorial etc.

permits are priced on a page basis, and its not too expensive. Dont go there if anything else about your cars dodgy though might end up with a list of things you need to do.

I recall reading something on an audi forum about a guy that put sand into his intake. I believe it ended up being a joke. I've gotta agree with rev210 about deciding what you really want fromy your car before you start modding, saves alot of money in the end.

The Yen is over valued as well though, I remember honda was calling for the japanese government to decrease the value of the yen or they were threatening to move offshore. Hopefully we will see the yen come down in value which will offset the terrible AUD

Whats your excess?

but whats the odds you have an accident where you arent at fault where they dont have insurance where you cant take them to court? I'm aware its a risk but you have to look at the odds. They are about the same as winning the lottery (well not that bad, but still its pretty unlikely.) Worst case scenario, I'm up for a new car which as long as it happens after the second year would be cheaper than having insured it the whole time anyway.

Ok so my sister works in insurance and i'm a bit of a finance person so i weigh up insurance in the following manner. My car is worth 8k. If i write it off i can buy another at this price. Full comprehensive insurance is 2.5k a year + 2k excess. You pay the 2.5k upfront and the 2k is payable on having an accident. 2.5k in a bank account would accrue 4% interest (depends on the account etc/whether you put it into bonds/ 4% is a safe assumption) So if you have an accident at the end of the year thats 2.6k + 2k excess = 4.6k Now 3rd party costs me 300 dollars @4% interest thats 312 dollars. The difference is 4288 a year. Now if we look at it over a couple years that becomes (2.6k+2.5k)^1.04= 5304 +2k excess = 7304 If the accident isn't your fault the other has to pay out not you. If you were doing something silly they aren't going to pay out. So considering you had an accident where you were at fault but not doing anything illegal where you completely wrote off your car and you did this within 2 years of taking out the policy it would be worth it. Otherwise its not worth the money. Now personally I haven't had my car insured AT ALL since last may, which im aware is a bit silly (what if i run into a merc etc), but i have never had an accident in the 3 years I've been driving. I recently took out 3rd party cover but if you look at the fact I've had my car for nearly a year I've saved 300 dollars as it is. Insurance can be seen as a kind of a lottery. You pay your money so that if the small odds come up you get a pay out. Except the odds are pretty similar and the payout isnt $30m. Theres a reason insurance companies make money.

yeah might cruise down after the sauwa meetup.

derogatory term, generally refers to Jap cars in general and thats the way you'll hear it used alot. Within Jap car circles it generally refers to a car thats done up cosmetically (usually badly i.e. neons, big stickers, sound system, rims from bob jane that dont fit etc) and has no go.

I'll roll up, nothing else planned.

I would 100% get one made up and put on my rear window for the hell of it, but im pretty sure i'd get pulled over too often, headache.

its both 100mm to the lowest point AND 500mm to the headlights.

i also have that leak, must ooze at such a low rate though as my oil never noticably decreases.

Hopefully anyone reading this realises thats a joke. Could end badly..
