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..

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.

    • I have been looking at some setting on the alarms for the Q60 and what buttons do and so and also been looking for details on the alarm in my V37 which is a standard issue with the car. settings like window roll up and a few others seem to not work at all. i cant seem to find exact info on V37 alarms so Q60 is all i can really go off i have not tried 400Z alarm settings or info yet so that will be next. any one got like a sheet of info on the alarm system in the V37 as all my documents are in japanese but i thought the system would basically be like standard through similar models? 
    • I had a fuel smell coming from the drivers rear and pulled the tank out to inspect where it was coming from, turns out the breather hose from the tank to the filler neck was perished. I’m going to Japan next week and I’ll grab it while I’m there  pulled the oil tank apart and started cleaning this crap out of it, some brake cleaner and rags got it looking new again 
    • Hmm. Was quite a few years ago now. I think I bought from a crowd in the US called CDT Audio. The speaker is the HD-6. The HD-6CF would have been the better option (based on T-S parameters), but they were discontinued in 4 ohm at that point in time. The HD-6 is a better driver in almost every other way (than the CF) - just not as good in IB. They still do the HD-6. They might even have a more suitable (for IB) option here.https://www.cdtaudio.com/cdtnew22/products/components/woofers/midwoofers/midwoofers.htm But, here's the rub. I was working in the US a lot back then, so I got them delivered to my US office and then just brought them back to OZ myself. I don't know if they will ship to OZ, and it probably wouldn't be great cost-wise anyway. As to results. They're driven direct off the rear channels of my headunit, because the headunit can be setup to run the rears as subs. So, not a lot of power being fed there. Nevertheless, there's no shortage of volume - the sub levels don't need or want to be boosted at all. The bass is definitely not what you would call "tight". It is definitely a bit delayed compared to a proper sub. But, with the great front soundstage and really good 6.5" woofers in the front doors, I'm getting most of the bass detail from the front and the rear is really only to extend the bottom end a bit. Works for what I'm doing. I mean - until recently you couldn't really hold a conversation in my car due to the fuel pump, and for many years I had tyres so noisy (Kumho KU36 at <50 tread depth) that I had to drive with earplugs anyway!
    • curious to know what drivers you chose and the results? quik mafs, says two 6.5s should roughly equate somewhere between a single 8" or 10" driver. i agree that IB is definitely the way to go in most cars imo.
    • S13 and R32 rear suspension geometry is horrible once you lower it (which everyone does). The camber & toe out ramp is very aggressive, hence it's common for the S13 boys/girls to use a S14 or S15 subframe as the geometry is light years ahead. I'm sure the same can be done on R32s, but I don't know anyone that has done that.
