People who can't merge properly, can't change lanes properly, can't negotiate roundabouts properly, can't indicate properly, people on the freeway who can't do the speed limit, and people who don't in

on a sadder more social note,

you know what really grinds my gears?

i just heard on the news that an 8 year old schoolgirl was found murdered in the livingston shopping centre toilets which is a whole 10 seconds down the road from me. It happened in broad daylight at about 4 this afternoon they said, and in the middle of a f**king crowded shopping centre. i believe she was still wearing her school uniform, but dont quote me on that.

that kind of shit is just f**king sick, what kind of sick motherf**king maggot smoking waste of human life would do that to an innocent little girl.

i hope they catch him and he is raped by countless burley men in prison, then dies a horrible death due to numerous Sexually Transmitted Infections. then i hope he somehow pulls through, only to die of cancer 10 seconds later, where he will rot in hell for all eternity.

id take a shit on his grave if i knew where it will be.

*Begin Rant*

When you import a car, take it to the compliance shop and they say its a priority for us to get your car done and out of here, so we can concentrate on our cars. You think finally great customer service then you do the right thing, get tyres and stock rims take them down to them and the head boss speaks to you like youre a piece of sh!t.

Then they say should only be a days work in it now, then we will apply for your compliance plate in Canberra airmail the plate will have it ready for Friday..ring up Friday no we have found this and that and now you need to source these parts..(been sitting in the f!cking yard for 1 week and you don’t even bother ringing me to let me know)

Then you ring the other yard and speak to the other boss who says that he has been on holidays and everything slows down when he goes away (wonderful business this one)…then he sources the parts that you need and I think problem solved excellent. Car will be ready Tuesday. Ring up Monday and find out what time can I pick her up tomorrow…hmmmmmmmm sorry a bit of delay only just sent the paper work off "end of the week you can get it"we will take it over the pits for you hope that helps...No D!ckhead that doesnt help cause I still have to get to the pits to pay the money sign the documents and get the plates..just hurry up and give me my car!!

So go pickup the car get all the licensing stuff done realize that the car is starting like shit..ring the guy up when I get home...yeah sorry the battery died while it was sitting in the yard and I ran the car dry of fuel…thanks you f!cking idiot I will not be recommending anyone to go to your shop!!

*END RANT...I feel great now :) *

Out of pure respect for the family that lost the life of there 8 year old daughter I’m dedicating this weeks winner of what grinds my gears to this.

Many things grind our gears but this has hit us all in many ways...

I’m a father to be and when I heard about this 8 year old girl and what happened to her... Words can not explain what I felt and what many of you are feeling.

What grinds our gears is really nothing in the big picture… What happened to her takes it one more step.

It’s a very sad loss and it has grinded all my gears. (I need a new gear box now)

      If you like more modern stuff than the R series, you should check out a V37 400R, they are pretty mod friendly

      Haha luckily we don't have emissions, inspections, or any laws against power adders here. They only thing they somewhat keep an eye out for are ridiculously loud exhausts.

      Just wanted to pop in an update on my setup. The CD swap has been great, I love the mazworks housing for the overall simplicity. I ended up sealing my trans tunnel with a thin sheet of aluminum reused some of the holes on the trans tunnel, and laid some window sealing EPS foam around the edges. Works great, really quieted things down and sealed up the car.  As for the power comment. Right now I am also running about 650whp. with the way the bell housing is attached to the face of the transmission I have zero doubts it would be fine, mainly because the input shaft and main shaft bearings are seated into the bell housing adapter. This means the load is NOT on the bolts to maintain the power, rather into he casing of the bell housing; Yes the bolts are doing some work there, but with both shafts locked in zero worries.  End of the day, the Mazworks solution is the easiest and safest. no need to take your trans to a shop to get milled perfectly, it fits with minimal clearancing, and you can use all your existing clutch and flywheel.  Driving wise the CD has been great compared to the big box, I'll probably swap my final drive at some point. The serial 9 shifter is gooooood, my only qualm is how tight it is, it takes a fair bit to get use to, 5th and 6th are a bit eh/hard to find at times, but maybe I need re-adjusting, and I think my clutch master is very tired and needs a rebuild.

      If you are keen, have a look at my build thread. Car is for sale for the right money or straight swap for a F80 M3 LCI.

      Welcome mate.  No point in over thinking it, buying any one of those cars you mentioned is not a smart or logical choice with the availability of many "better" (re price to performance) cars available to you.  The heart wants what the heart wants, buy whatever it leads you too.
