I have no idea at all what you are talking about... -
Do You Warn Oncoming Drivers?
hamiltonau replied to hamiltonau's topic in General Automotive Discussion
^^ Good stuff! the karma will come back to you in the form of a free beer or $2 coin found under the couch one day as for the rare situation where you will clock that the oncoming driver is flying along at an excessive rate and there are no cars in front or behind you to also warn him I would be flashing those high beams like i was having a severe epileptic fit (unless it was a euro car) but I understand where your coming from and respect that. -
Best Bang For Buck Sub 30K Skyline?

Thanks for the support guys, im a sensitive little sod so it means a lot, as for the boost controller..um i will take a quick photo/video of what i mean over the wknd but essentially if i switch it off im not making as much boost so im assuming the power level drops and hence petrol consumption? Have i being doing it wrong all this time? Im not being a smart arse i simply dont know lol. Anyway looking forward to seeing the difference a few grand makes, Skittles the only things i dont have in that list are the turbo and apexi computer thing but i apparently won't need the latter as Toshi will do the tune so i just went out and got the AFM and plug so he can work his magic, keeping things as budget as possible and other than doing the install myself i think im doing ok so far. Cant wait to put down my right foot for the first time once its all set up..its like waiting for xmas when your 5! -
Do You Warn Oncoming Drivers?

^ you would have time to tell? -
Read this today and found it interesting http://www.usatoday.com/news/opinion/editorials/story/2011-09-28/flashing-headlights-free-speech/50593266/1 I know we get caned for it over here if caught doing it, interesting to see its a constitutional RIGHT in the good ole US of A! seems Canada may follow suit, not sure how it stands in the UK but i would be surprised if we moved to anything near as liberal in the next century or two.. Personally i always give oncoming drivers a bit of a flash though i find myself doing it more often when i see drivers at night without their headlights on. This happens nearly everytime i get on the road lately and it seems drivers are generally worse. thats probably a whole nother thread though.. anyway has anyone been busted for flashing drivers? I held up a sign once on crown street warning of a speed trap, only lived down the road so it wasnt a big deal. Got lots of thumbs up and a few friendly toots, wouldnt try anything that brazen now though..

Alright f**k it, it seems thread is derailed no matter what i do so here are the FACTS in no particular order.. A) For the first 2 years of my sons life i was there every day changing nappies, driving him to and from childcare and bringing his mother whatever supplies were created, the above joke about avoiding the hard labour was in the spirit of the conversation and was just that. A Joke. If it is slightly more accurate now is out of my hands, a half baked police investigation into a computer at my ex wife's address that was used by persons unknown led to no prosecution at all of anyone other than an AVO being forced on me by the police as they couldn't prove who downloaded the kiddypron. It certainly wasn't me as I didn't live at the address and would only pop in to pick up my son, plus it was a shitty 5 yr old desktop that barely worked and by then i had a stupidly fast laptop. If I was going to dig for anything online other than hot co-eds in bikinis it would be on that thing...or probably one of my dozen or so external hard drives, or maybe one of my 600ish CDs/DVDs..but it wasnt, all that stuff was kept for six months and thoroughly forensically swept and whaddya know...a complete and utter waste of time. Yet still the end result is that for the next 2 and a bit years i can only see him through an expensive contact service for 2 hours a week and every other day he is crying out and pestering his mother about where the F#$% I am. Yeah what an irresponsible "loooser" i am. btw Wori if your going to insult someone you might want to at least get your spelling right. You self important twat. B) As for bankruptcy thing, I never claimed to be good with money, it is probably one of my greatess weaknesses, as much as I try and look for the 'best deal' or a 'great bargain' I have always spent more than i had and it finally caught up with me recently. Therefore i elected to change things and no longer have access to credit nor will i allow myself it again in the future other than phone plans and possibly a house if i ever stop buying shit for my car. My income now is higher than it was for the 3 or so years leading up to the bankruptcy as now im not ploughing every last cent of my disposable income into paying the bloody things off (and most of that was interest anyway...stuck in a loop hence the reach for the emergency brakes). All the money im now spending on the car is money i have earned and saved, as immoral as it may seem to some it is up to ME what i do with it not some jumped up troll whose only posts are to start shit like this. I am still putting 200 a week into the trustees account so its not like the banks get nothing back, sure not the whole whack but with all the interest i paid over the years they still made a nice fat healthy profit on the back of my financial stupidity. My son still gets his 175 a week in child support other than when his mother borrows a huge amount for rental bonds and things like that, usually after a few weeks she is back in the black and they start right back up. He is never without food, housing, clothes, swimming lessons, education, Gymbaroo or whatever the f**k its called. He has about 4 million toys and i dont begrudge him one single hot wheels car. Im not sure what else i should be putting aside for, its not the USA where he needs a 50k college fund..or a 3rd world country where he needs 10-15k to bribe his way into a job. .am i expected to build some kind of huge financial empire that i can pass onto him like Rupert did for James et al? As nice and (possibly character destroying) as that would be for him i cant see it being a conceivable possibility unless someone can find me those pills from the movie 'limitless'. anyone? thought not. So yeah next time your about to thoughtlessly leap into the fray throwing accusations left right and centre just step back, take stock. Slowly take your hand off your cock, wrap it around the handle of a kitchen knife and stab yourself in the neck. Repeatedly. That is all. -

hamiltonau replied to hamiltonau's topic in General Automotive Discussion
Yeah my natural inclination to carry on ranting and refute every single point is so strong im about to explode with rage/indignation. Hope your at least happy with successfully trolling me to that point, but rather than let a self important dick like you derail a thread in a SKYLINE forum about modifying SKYLINES and not coming up with the best way to raise a child which I'm pretty sure would be on a completely different forum altogether I will happily move on with the business at hand.. Was told last night my GTR fuel pump might not quite be enough to keep up with the 800plus cc injectors im waiting for so its off to JustJap again, apparently the OEM version is under a hundred bucks so it will be worth it for the peace of mind. Wondering now if i should advertise the soon to be discarded fuel pump and standard injectors in the private sales section..? edit- Yeah Artz i gotta admit i do turn off my boost controller now and then, pretty much when im low on petrol and needing to just make it one or two more km's. Drops from 1bar to 0.5 so the difference is pretty noticeable. -

Yeah i worked it out, Hanaldo said that. oh and love your work mlr, you took the words right out of my mouth! LOL at Wori turning up out of nowhere, go back to PForums with that knee-jerk reaction to shit you dont about you will be right at home with all those frustrated high school bullies who get their jollies wielding their almighty keyboards of doom. . oh and yeah i took the time to have a look at your ONE other post on this forum, its an obvious troll is obvious attack on Eastes re the 40k over fine, an immediate response from another member (trozzle) was this Also applies here i believe. -

LOL shotgun wedding basically...wham, bam, thanky...what? a kid? AARRGGH!! pretty happy about it now though, cant get enough of him and she basically had to do all the hard stuff. good times. bit of drama later as detailed in other threads but its all going to work out. As for turning down the boost Artz...to me thats sacrilige!! i only drive on the wknd or for fun now and then, occasionally a bit of a run to costco or Ikea etc. Hence its always going to be a bit of a dramatic experience for me to get behind the wheel, especially running full boost with some second hand furniture sliding around in the back.. -

good..i was hoping for just about more than enough...actually much more than i need would be perfect! -
+ 1 re wearing helmets usually do it myself for a bit on the way down to track days, always good for teh lulz and usually get a few double takes/thumbs up. Doing the 2 person head turn, death stare would be classic though. if only i had a passenger this time..

hamiltonau replied to r33skylin3's topic in New South Wales

hamiltonau replied to hamiltonau's topic in General Automotive Discussion
yeah off to Japlink now to get Z32 AFM should just avoid the worst of the traffic, why are they in frikkin Kirrawee though? its miles away.. as for the wifey, i am just going to let child support cease until the money is paid back, at 170 a week it wont take long for the debt to be recovered. Its not a big deal, she is fine with it going down like that. In a way though im like HER credit card lol. as for why even helping, she is sharing an apartment with my brother and his wife who is about to have a baby so they need all the space they can get pretty soon. Nup, my life isnt complicated at all. Rang Stao about the install today, says the turbo should be ready by next Tuesday and be able to get chucked in over just a few hours. Mechanic says with all the new hoses and so on i need it might take a few days, either way im pretty excited. oh and to keep the cop said thread on topic Artz i will respond in here.. how is 300RWKW not decent power? ok maybe its not 1000HP stupid power but surely im going to notice the difference as its more than double what im running now..surely? -

Not for much longer, order has been made funds transferred. god i hope its ready by the next wakefield track day in 2 weeks time..15 oct -
This I LOL'ed at, hope someone teaches me someday. had all the night before stuff down but there always seems to be something missing the next morning that makes you late..love turning up at trackdays just as the drivers briefing crowd is filtering back out to their cars. perfect timing again!

+1 to stao doing the piping too, would be happy to send a little more cash this way to smooth over the whole operation. as for those specs you need sarge.... not sure how to start figuring out what they would be. hopefully once the turbo comes in and i take it to the mechanics he can let me know what you need to....er...know.

Guilt-toy In Georgia (former Soviet Union)
hamiltonau replied to Swiper the Fox's topic in Engines & Forced Induction
you lucky bastard, oh and was that the same guy who recorded you at the drags, was your boss or something wasnt it? LOL pretty hard to break it to him gently he better not branch out into cinematography added u to facestalk, looking forward to seeing the carporn you surely have on there! -
all this talk of fabricating pipes sounds expensive and scares the crap out of me.. will call F&E tomorrow and make sure they can do it, otherwise Sarge can you make 2 new ones while your at it?
-
yeah i go to bed so late there would be no point sleeping if we made it half six..any chance u could creep it 30 min to an hour or so later Eric? on behalf of all the insomniacs on SAU...please...

Thanks hanaldo for the tip regarding the oil thing, will remember that for sure. As for metal piping and so on, Stao said it comes with all the necessary bits but i will keep a few hundred aside in case some extra work is required. not settled on the mechanic yet, there is one in Marrickville that comes recommended on here. forget the name but might head out to F&E in Wetherill park just because i know them and it will be good value. again cheers for advice. fingers crossed i will be able to join the 300kw club pretty soon..
