Fast Fours Petition

Posted

Hello All,

This may come across as a little crazy but i'm sure there has to be a few chook cooker fans around these parts and this isn't only about rotaries, it's about the general content that Fast Fours magazine publishes today.

Many of you will agree that over the past few years Fast Fours magazine has gone downhill. The magazine is full of advertisements and usually, crap cars. Many people that i have spoken to want the magazine to go back to the way it was. Back in the old days when the cars were unique, there were less adverts and it seemed as though the editors of the magazine actually cared about the content.

We want this magazine to cater for more then just 13 year olds who have no clue about cars and that just want to see flashy paint jobs and chicks with big tits sprawled all over them.

So show your support and lets give a wake up call to Fast Fours magazine. We don't expect miracles, and we don't expect a change over night, but we expect better for our $10 every month!

Many thanks,

Adam. :blush:

p.s. Any comments can be forwarded to [email protected] if necessary. But you're better off showing your support on the petition.

unfortunately the only reason i see as good enough to make any changes to a magazine would be profit..

you can petition all you want but if the profits arnt falling then there would be no reason to change, for example.. you complain about ads but ads are the things that are making the magazine money.

the only reason why you liked fast fours back in the day is because it was focused to a younger age group, now that your older you dont like it as much.

Fortunately there are other magazines such HPI, Zoom etc that still focus alot on performance, i suggest you switch mags

Quote from your petition:

How many articles on old school rotors such as R100, RX2, RX3, RX4, 1300, 323's etc have there been compared to Skylines, Civics, Lancers etc?

Anything wrong with articles on Skylines? Good way to win friends on here champ :blush:

In all seriousness, I agree that there's way too much advertising in FF's, way too many ricebox's and not enough decent articles.

You want to know what I did?

I don't buy the mag anymore - quite simple really. Maybe you should consider this also.

I've signed your petition simply because you seem to be so passionate about it, and it's only worth a minute of my time. Quite frankly though I couldn't give two shits about the mag, simply because it's been crap for years, and I gave up on it a long long time ago! :blush:

Good luck!

Yeah for real the only interesting shit ever in this mag is whats going on with the wrc. and the other tiny sections of motor sport. the rest is just plastic and garbage. if i want to look at toy cars i walk outside and open my childhood toy box.

p.s. the only magazines i pick up theses days are hpi, or j tuner. they seem to be the only ones with constant decnet content.

      Leak from Tokico BM50 Brake Master Cylinder

      By SteveL · Posted

      The question then becomes - was there any fluid coming from that hole before you did the rebuild ?    You may not have noticed, of course.   Depending on how you did the rebuild, the possibility has to be considered that somehow (cleaning ?)  fluid entered that hole and is now being 'forced'  out by small movements of the proportioning valve.   From the factory, there's actually a small rubber plug in that hole but with age and under-bonnet heat it's quite common for it to 'go missing'.  That rubber plug is designed to allow the venting process but also to prevent 'stuff' getting to the area (prevent corrosion, etc).   The plug is also not available as a spare part AFAIA. Personally I wouldn't race and buy a new master just yet but keep an eye on the area to see if the 'leak' continues.   If you're concerned about brake fluid damaging nearby paintwork, cable tie a piece of suitable absorbant material over the hole and remove/monitor occasionally.    Operation of the proportioning valve and the brake master itself won't be affected, but also keep an eye on brake fluid level, of course. In terms of a new master, the genuine part is getting expensive, unfortunately.  Amayama is showing AUD900+.   I was searching recently and there's an aftermarket part available from Japan made by 'Parts Assist': https://zenmarket.jp/en/yahoo.aspx?q=BNR32%2bBM50&p=1 Whether it's any good I have no idea, although in my experience Japanese aftermarket stuff is pretty good quality-wise.   The above site allows overseas buyers to purchase stuff more easily from Japan but there are fees and shipping costs, of course.   The original Japanese seller page is here: https://auctions.yahoo.co.jp/jp/auction/p1197401228 Copper/Nickel is fine but I still prefer bundy tube and it's also cheaper.
