Little B, agreed. Like those thoughtless robots that park their shopping trolley on your car to stop it rolling away as they load their 2.4 kids and this weeks load of frozen pizza (dont get me started with that one) into their personal shopping trolley. I caught one a while ago and it gets that $hit eating "i'm sorry but it's only a car " grin on its dial.....Die tracksuit wearing prozac muncher,

&

Jealous tards that try to impress their dopey mates by trying to pry the GTR badge off...Die ass clown!

Reatil, retail, retail err let me think...ok ok i got one, paying retail for anything HKS...so i dont :mellow:

Man...I must be running out of stuff, errr.... having my new IC and fuel system installed :D , knowing that i have to stay on site and wont get to drive my R for another 4 weeks :( I know, its pretty weak but retail is a fairly specific area...and this stupid warn level....who did I annoy to deseve that!

Although i'm a white male and therefore automatically blamed for everything from global warming (yes my fault) to returning empty juice cartons to the fridge (no, not my fault)i dont know if i can continue to be righteous in my indignation of those who would make my life just that much more crappy :mellow:

cue the fruit :mellow:

My 2c

Retail - rude customers!! why do you think its ok for you can be rude to me when im at work?!?! and why dont you have a guilty conscious about it ? WHYY?!?!

Ladies with prams at the shopping centre - made even WORSE if there's TWO ladies with TWO walking SIDE BY SIDE!! HEllO?!!?!? Move the f** over! LOL

People driving slow in the right hand lane (same as everyone else) MOVE OVER! Speed cameras should book people doing UNDER the speed limit as well as over!!

little brats with ignorant parents - everyone can hear/see it screaming/climbing on things it should be/touching things it shouldn't be/walking unattended around the shop WHY do you choose to ignore it?? and its NOT cute when they make a mess/bump into someone (especially if they're carrying hot food/drinks)/throw a tantrum on the floor

:D yeah... theres just a few for me! :D

Every day when I’m driving home I come up to a point where I need to turn left onto a new road.. I need to get into the second lane on this new road so that I can then turn right and not be stuck in the left lane.

Yet when I sit there and indicate to turn left onto the road people try and let me into the traffic. Nice of them I know but I need to get into the second lane so I smile and wave them on because I don’t need the lane closest to the verge but the inside lane so I can turn right in 200 meters.

Now in the last week I think at least 3 people have given me the finger because I haven’t accepted there offer to go in front of them and get totally lost because I couldn’t make my right turn because I was in the wrong lane.

Other people... Including a nice looking granny yelled several swear words that totally shocked me!! **But I got your number plate granny.... I'll get you one day..

And that..

is what grinds my gears..

u know what we need? a thread with a description of a car, person and number plates, as well as your reason for bagging them.

by the end of the month we'd have this list of "white lancer, p plates, ignorant girl with plates 1ABC-123 cut me off into a pedestrian etc etc"...

how bout that for a grind-my-gears thread?

Bit too blatant? heh some ppl simply need to vent...

Nice idea but I dont know about putting rego numbers up on the forum.. :)

Maybe make a new thread called ( IDIOT SPOTTED THREAD ) LoL.. but yeah no rego numbers..

Thats gold AlphA :laugh:, I remenbered one time when a granny cut infront of me and nearly took me out. I sounded the horn to warn her, but she return the gesture by flipping the bird at me I was like WTF its like a war zone out there on the road haha.

having used lotus notes in school before. I never knew why in the world pple actually bothered with lotus notes, i could gather a few geeks and they'd probably be able to do something wayyyy better in 1mth than what lotus could do in 1 year.

that was my second post kym "Having to support Lotus Notes sucks even more"

Being a Domino Admin is part of my job and I must say I try to palm off anything to do with Lotus lol.........

It's a good thing that we are currently in plans to change over to exchange/outlook :) wooohooo

    • Nah - but you won't find anything on dismantling the seats in any such thing anyway.
    • Could be. Could also be that they sit around broken more. To be fair, you almost never see one driving around. I see more R chassis GTRs than the Renault ones.
    • Yeah. Nah. This is why I said My bold for my double emphasis. We're not talking about cars tuned to the edge of det here. We're talking about normal cars. Flame propagation speed and the amount of energy required to ignite the fuel are not significant factors when running at 1500-4000 rpm, and medium to light loads, like nearly every car on the road (except twin cab utes which are driven at 6k and 100% load all the time). There is no shortage of ignition energy available in any petrol engine. If there was, we'd all be in deep shit. The calorific value, on a volume basis, is significantly different, between 98 and 91, and that turns up immediately in consumption numbers. You can see the signal easily if you control for the other variables well enough, and/or collect enough stats. As to not seeing any benefit - we had a couple of EF and EL Falcons in the company fleet back in the late 90s and early 2000s. The EEC IV ECU in those things was particularly good at adding in timing as soon as knock headroom improved, which typically came from putting in some 95 or 98. The responsiveness and power improved noticeably, and the fuel consumption dropped considerably, just from going to 95. Less delta from there to 98 - almost not noticeable, compared to the big differences seen between 91 and 95. Way back in the day, when supermarkets first started selling fuel from their own stations, I did thousands of km in FNQ in a small Toyota. I can't remember if it was a Starlet or an early Yaris. Anyway - the supermarket servos were bringing in cheap fuel from Indonesia, and the other servos were still using locally refined gear. The fuel consumption was typically at least 5%, often as much as 8% worse on the Indo shit, presumably because they had a lot more oxygenated component in the brew, and were probably barely meeting the octane spec. Around the same time or maybe a bit later (like 25 years ago), I could tell the difference between Shell 98 and BP 98, and typically preferred to only use Shell then because the Skyline ran so much better on it. Years later I found the realtionship between them had swapped, as a consequence of yet more refinery closures. So I've only used BP 98 since. Although, I must say that I could not fault the odd tank of United 98 that I've run. It's probably the same stuff. It is also very important to remember that these findings are often dependent on region. With most of the refineries in Oz now dead, there's less variability in local stuff, and he majority of our fuels are not even refined here any more anyway. It probably depends more on which SE Asian refinery is currently cheapest to operate.
    • You don't have an R34 service manual for the body do you? Have found plenty for the engine and drivetrain but nothing else
    • If they can dyno them, get them dyno'd, make sure they're not leaking, and if they look okay on the dyno and are performing relatively well, put them in the car.   If they're leaking oil etc, and you feel so inclined, open them up yourself and see what you can do to fix it. The main thing you're trying to do is replace the parts that perish, like seals. You're not attempting to change the valving. You might even be able to find somewhere that has the Tein parts/rebuild kit if you dig hard.
