Melbourne .. Shitload of weird words..

What do you call a street directory?

Why cant you call a schooner a schooner? FREAKS I JUST WANT A BEER! A BIG ONE!!

BUT!

So clean... Even ur junkie area is nice!

Its like living in the country but in a city .. Ur parks suck (I went for future music) and everyone drinks and drives (generalisation from what I found)

Sydney is shit house dirty but clubs pubs and everything are alot better.. Chiqs are way better down side is fully sik ulehs but sydney seems to have a better police officer in comparison to melb from what ive seen.

But Sydney wins .. its just the bomb .. melb can be boring .. good for a weekend away to get smashed but bout it

i was in melb last week, from thursday to sat, and it was my first time.

the roads are much wider, and the cars just flow, no traffic.

very friendly people, nice girls.

the greek area in the city lol :D

good shopping

free tram rides are cool

but im so used to sydney, the traffic, the rage on the roads, beaches, sydney city night life :P

Lived in both.... Melb is nicer place and a better place to live in general.

People are more friendly, atmosphere more relaxed, weather sucks but hey. The place is more organised, traffic is better.

Will end up back in Sydney soon; theres certainly alot more of Sydney I'd like to avoid when I'm back there.

I love Melbourne. Its just a more laid back place.

The only things I don't like about Melbourne are:

1. The wind

2. The cold

3. The road enforcement (no signs for fixed speed cameras, heavy handed police, small margins of error)

Aside from that, the city is tops.

I know you pretty well Liz, you dont exagerate, and you have an uncanny talent for guessing the temperature... so im guessing that actual windchill temp was within 1 or 2 degrees of what you said... which is fairly cold... im not living in a place that has a temp of about 10 million below absolute zero!

he's talking about the city circle tourist trams.. the brown ones that go around the edges of the CBD.. which are free.

me? exaggerate? NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO.

fark it was cold there yesterday!

8degrees when i got off the plane yesterday.... IN THE SUN!

the wind chill must have been -10000000000000000000 degrees

That was the first seriously cold day we have had all year. No joke :thumbsup:

Even i was cold and i don't normally notice it

Ya should've let the Vic people know you were here!

There is a good number of us that work CBD style :sorcerer:

But then... your a traitor... :cool:

well it was bloody freezing.. i had gloves, a scarf, 2 tops under my shirt, a cardigan AND a winter coat on.. and I was still cold!

I was only down there for the day :)

next time I'll come out for a few cleansing ales!

the weather is one thing I love about melbourne. gives me a chance to wear some of the many, many jackets I have in the closet that can only be worn for about 1 week a year in sydney.

I like melbs. I like sydney too. I could happily live in either.

Both are crappy Mexicans to the superior Brisbane.

1 hour from surfers

1 hour from sunshine coast.

all roads are new.

all roads are wide.

plenty of hills

circuits.

easy going cops.

easy laws on modifications.

low "uleh" factor.

wimmins.. come on... tanned/blonde/blue is what aus is about and this is where they are made..

clubs.. I'm sure there are some.. not my scene.

pubs/bars/latte sipping fairy places a plenty.

    • You will now be able to lift the parcel shelf trim enough to get to the shock cover bolts; if you need to full remove the parcel shelf trim for some reason you also remove the escutcheons around the rear seat release and you will have to unplug the high stop light wiring from the boot. Next up is removal of the bracket; 6 nuts and a bolt Good news, you've finally got to the strut top! Remove the dust cover and the 3 shock mount nuts (perhaps leave 1 on lightly for now....) Same on the other side, but easier now you've done it all before
    • OK, so a bunch of trim needs to come off to get to the rear shock top mounts. Once the seat is out of the way, the plastic trim needs to come off. Remove 2 clips at the top then slide the trim towards the centre of the car to clear the lower clip Next you need to be able to lift the parcel shelf, which means you need to remove the mid dark trim around the door, and then the upper light trim above the parcel shelf. The mid trim has a clip in the middle to remove first, then lift the lowest trim off the top of the mid trim (unclips). At the top there is a hidden clip on the inner side to release first by pulling inwards, then the main clip releases by pulling the top towards the front of the car. The door seal comes off with the trim, just put them aside. The the lighter upper trim, this is easy to break to top clips so take it carefully. There is a hidden clip towards the bottom and another in the middle to release first by pulling inwards. Once they are out, there are 3 clips along the rear windscreen side of the panel that are hard to get under. This is what the rear of the panel looks like to assist:
    • Yes. Autos typically work from the speed sensor on the pinion shaft of the diff. I also think that even if you have a proper speed sensor for the bog manual in the manual box, that the signal it outputs is not compatible with the auto dash anyway. You should consult that manual (the book, not the gearbox).
    • And I just realised that that advice is slightly nonsensical for a GTR, because you need 2 of them. But it is otherwise true.
    • Having had a reasonable look at the car, I'll be able to remove the (one time) rams and retract the hinge (they are held in the down location by a tiny (m3?) sacrificial screw) which will get it physically back in shape. From there if you remove the rams you need a resistor to turn off the airbag light (as Mark said, there are plug in kits and I might go that way because its reversible). And...per all the threads on here, even if you have the resistors to turn off the airbag light, the bonnet light will stay on as it writes to the airbag computer history - that is either replace the airbag controller, reprogam the EPROM (if I can work out how), or remove the globe from the dash. Having seen how sensitive this system is, if I had my time over I'd pre-emptively remove the rams, even on a road car, because this is all a very unnecessary pain in the arse. Reminds me, time to go and have a look at the Fuga too....
