  1. This is probably a stupid question but is it possible to play a multiplayer game, you and your mate against the 'computer'. I dont have xbox live and want to be able to play with my wife or son and start a campaign or even just a level with them being on my side against the enemy. I can only make it 1 on 1, me vs them. Its a bit easy for me to play 1 on 1 against my son or wife.
  2. Thats gold, what a chicken test!!! Could be true From what ive read and heard (they released 000 call) obviously there is a fault. The cruise control switch has caused fires in the states, possibly his ford had the same switch, and got stuck but did not cause the fire. Most of the fires that occured in the states the car was on long stretches of road, possibly not knowing that the switch had stuck and thats when the fire occured(not 100% sure though). I think it sounds a little strange but who knows, maybe he really couldnt get the car into neutral. The car was auto. I think kicking in the kick panel and busting some fuses wouldve been a good idea, not sure if the important fuses in the ford needed to stop the car would be in there, arent they mainly under the bonnet in most cars?? The cops thought of many ways to stop the car from getting a truck in front of hit to slow it down, to running the car into a paddock with long weeds whilst blowing the tyres out with spikes. Very interesting situation to be in, one that i wouldnt want to be in. I do believe the guys cruise control was stuck on, it has happened to many times to other people for me to believe that it really not happen.
  3. Hope it gets the car back mate, i really do. Can people imagine what its gunna be like in 15 years, when our children have there own cars, this place is gunna be like the bronx if we are not careful
  4. Im not gunna sit here and argue with you, unlike you, i do other things then sit on a computer all day. I must say though, Ash, ive never ever seen you back down, say im wrong, say im sorry or even give up. You have an answer for everything, even if its wrong you will argue that you are right. You think the you are God on this site and you must always say the last word and that your word is the gospel. Out of all the members on this site (paying and non paying) you give the most negative posts. Yes you do try to help people but there is always a negative in your posts and i can tell you people dont like hearing your negative crap. I think maybe you should get your head out of your arse and maybe look at things in a different light, or maybe even from the other side of the fence. Everyone assumes something. Where there is smoke there is fire. Your mods, whatever they are, are hidden. Why would they be hidden so well??? Could it be that maybe one or two of them could get you a canary. But, no doubt as a comeback to that you would say something along the lines of, rather it be hidden and not seen by a cop and have to go through all the crap of showing a bit of paper to say that its fine. Good for you. Thats the end of me, if you or other people disagree with what ive said well thats all well and good but Ash, other people have bought this subject up with you before and you come back more negative. Maybe this time you can take something out of this. You got caught out this time. 'remember, police patrol the web'
  5. Oh but i did read. So i shall re quote your post on the previous page. Maybe you should read before you post.
  6. This was my argument a week or so ago Ash, remember "police reguarly scan these types of websites for information on you or your car". You gave a big lecture to a person about bragging about there mods and "lying" to the police on this forum. You now have the audacity to brag about your mods that are well hidden. Please practice what you preach!
  7. Couldnt have put it better myself. Do people honestly believe that at every station there is a cop that sits behind a computer screen and reads every car forum so they may find some information on a some poor bloke in a small town talking about what is legal and what is illegal on there own car. Seriously, do you think that in every station there is a cop looking at facebook or something and looking at someones profile who says that they got into a fight and go arrest them for assult, or someone talking about how there bong broke at home, cops arent gunna go and do a drug bust on this person just because he said something on a public forum. Not every post on every forum site is looked at by the cops. When i had my EPA done in macleod i kept my power fc in, they never saw it, i mentioned it on this site, i havent had the cops come and bust my door down and issue me with another EPA check or even a warrant for my arrest because i lied to a police officer. YES police may go through a few sites here and there but i doubt very much that the gvment is paying a cop to sit behind a screen and go through every post in SAU so they can pull over every member on this site on there way to work/uni. Because i reckon if they did, 75% of the people on this site have written about something they have done illegally, weather it be speeding, doing a burnout, putting a boost controller on, BOV swapping, parking illegally, not displaying there P's, even throwing a smoke butt out the window, 'spirited' driving, they wouldve already had the cops on there door step. Nismoid - Tell me, just outa curiosity, you keep going on about how cops are known to read this forum, out of all the years you've been on here, how many people have pulled over and fined or worse as a result for something that has been posted up this site. Im not a lawyer but shit, even i would be able to represent myself in court and get off any charge they would throw at me as a result of something that has been posted under my username on this site. People need to lighten up a little bit. Lucky you muztek, you tried to do the right thing and get a lift back to drink - smart, you got a nice cop and you took it all in your stride. If you get an EPA its unlucky in my books. Oh, and i doubt it would be cos you wrote what you did.
  8. my series 1 does have a light, seen it once, wont see it again, i had a buggered fuel filter shortly afteri saw it and re filled up, must have picked up some shit at the bottom of the tank. I do not recommend trying to see if your light works or not. It came on approx 1.5 needle widths under empty. I get between approx 400kms highway driving and 350-360kms with short trips and boosting it every now n then.
  9. How addictive is this game though haha. Is there anyway of looking at our team mates cars or see there fastest time? At the moment mine is 10.5 at on driving level 2. Could prob run a 10 or a bit better flat but it will cost too much to fix
  10. when i got done and had a full epa done the bloke at macleod didnt even look at my ecu(had a power fc in it at the time but no hand controller hooked up), only the air pod, which i put a shitty home made aluminium cover around it for the trip there. maybe i was lucky. good luck anyway.
  11. The wife had a baby girl people, need to sell the car!! $6000 anyone
  12. This is pretty cool, very addictive, what happens when you get caught by the cops? add me: -damoc
  13. Hi, i have a r33 1993 november build gtst series 1. Its black with gold 3 piece rims geewlat brand rims. Tyres are 235x40 @ 95% tread on the front & 265x35 on rear at 85%. It has a front mount intercooler (monta imports), turbo smart t-boost set at 9 psi and HKS pod. Also has 1,3,5 min turbo timer, controller is built into dash. It has a momo steering wheel and momo chrome gear knob. It has a 3.5 inch turbo back exhaust with a 5 inch tip with silencer in it. It is a loud car but i have a exhaust that will fit to get you through the EPA, this exhaust will also come with the car. A big wing is on the back that makes it look like a shopping trolley, so the missus says. Body condition is in great, no dints but does have a scratch on the back left hand side of the rear bar and also a cracked front bar that i have resprayed where the cracks are to be not so noticable, also a bit of black tape to not crack any further. Will need to replace front bar or get it repaired for it to look better. Other things wrong with it are the drivers door electric window motor is blown or/and the relay has shit itself. Im sure its both as i crossed the wires a bit back to get the window to go up and down as the reley was playing up and they touched, the window motor doesnt work anymore although it is all the way up. It also has a blown head gasket. It has just had a new timing belt and new air con belt put on. Also had the air con pulley replaced. Also a re-cored radiator It has a dvd, tv, gps, cd palyer in 1 in it but a cd is stuck in the player(cant be bothered pulling the thing out to get the cd out, i hope you like 2pac). It has 6X9 200w pioneers in the parcel shelf and great speakers in the front, cant remember which brand, but they were green and are brand new speakers front and rear, all new wiring! Interior is in great condition and is very clean. This car was imported and i bought it 2 weeks after it landed and was complied. Ive owned it for approx 3 years. It has been great to me and has been a quick and fun car to drive as this was my dream car but due to the problems with it and my wife is due with our first baby in 3 weeks i need to sell it. This is a regretful sale, trust me!! The sale price is $8000 negotiable. Does not come with rwc or rego Please email me at [email protected] or phone 0418174568 after 5pm any night.
  14. This happened to me, i found out it was a fuse i was missing. The relay would click when i turned the ignition on. Mine was in a series 1 r33 gtst
  15. The same thing happened to my ex girlfriend. Dont know about your situation but hers happened in a 1 way street in a shopping centre, angle parking. Both cars were parked oppisite to each other and reversed out at the same time hitting the back right on her car and the back left on the other. The insurance companies of both hers and the other chick reversing out said that they were classed as 'driving the wrong way down a one way street', so they were both in the wrong. I spoke to a police officer and said that this is correct. In the end both people paid there own insurance to get their car fixed. Its a pretty farked up situation when you MUST reverse out of angle parking.
  16. Really???? Most holden and fords after 1992 that were V8's made over 185kw. My 90' VN SS made 177 stock even though it was spose to only be 167 i think out of the factory.
  17. my mates brother had 'FARQUE' on his 87 xf falcon about 18-20 years ago. He sold the plates for 15k in about 94'. I did see these at a car show not long after that but cant remember what car they were on. Im sure he wouldnt be allowed to have them now.
  18. ive got an exhuast that im willing to start renting out, its not a 3 inch but makes your car so quiet that its funny. Its a cat back exhaust. Its approx 106mm from the centre to centre of each bolt. It has a 52mm tip. No kidding, it is really quiet, sounds quieter then the missus' hoover. Im willing to rent it out at a slab of jim beam or $80 plus $300 deposit, to be returned when the exhaust comes back. Im also willing to help put it on. I will only help if available. This was purchased to pass an epa when i got done for being to loud with my cannon. Got used on epa test only. This passed my r33 gtst at 82 db!!

    Engine Crane

    i live in melton but it looks like 350+ sounds like about what im gunna end up paying. I just found out my bro in law should be able to get 1 cheapish for me. Ive seen the ebay ones and they're going for around 300 but i just dont trust the welding on them, the last thing i want is for the engine to fall on the ground after its been hoisted. Its for a 253 V8 pulling out with more then likely a 350 chev getting put on it later, not sure on the weight of one of them but it would be heavier then 400kg im guessing, would a 1 ton be enough being when its fully stretched out that it wouldnt be a 1 ton capacity? I hope people know what i mean. 1 ton capacity could mean it could hold the engine there for along time when the arms arent stretched out but when fully extended its capacity could only be 500kg. Also, would it be better for me to get 1 with a engine stand rather then have the hoist holding the engine for a few months? This is the first time ive pulled an engine out of a car so if its works the way i want it to ill pull the rb25det out of mine and see what i can do with it.
