Well, not really, but I want too.

Well, I hate ANYONE who doesn't secure their loads.

I just ran over some sort of screw jack and it went straight through my front right tyre and rim.

The jack had a base welded to it about 150mm square by 10mm, and let's just say that it's not now......

Results in the pictures.

:yes:

Anyone wanna swap cars, apparently mine doesn't like to be on the road.

BASS OUT

farkin hell :P

We almost had a council roadworks type sign fly into the windscreen once at 100k/hr on the Ring Rd.. just missed it and it went into a commodore behind us instead.

Have at least 2 buckled rims from the Ring rd also.

Where was this? Can you get the council to pay for damages?

Stupid thing was just sitting on the road covered in a piece of plastic.

80 kph, didn't see it until the last minute, it was dark, big 4WD in front of me and then BANG.

wasn't a council thing couldn't chase them anyway with no air in my tyres.....

That is just SO dis-heartening :P

Every time you get the car shmik, something else farks it for you. So sorry to hear Pete :P

AGREED!! U poor b#stard!!

I take it that it fell off a truck?!? Did u happen to get the company name and/or rego off the truck? Cos im pretty sure u may be able to get them to pay. A rock fell off a Boral truck a few years ago and busted up my mates windscreen, lucky he got the rego called Boral told them date, time, location & rego. They told him to send the bill to them, no questions or anything!!

But i think it was hassle free cos of the company that was at fault.

All the best man!!

sorry to see pete.

it's all part of the great Australian tradition of getting a trailer or ute 2 sizes too small, then proceeding to load it up to 200% capacity, drive along a freeway or highway, and therefore not need to visit the tip to drop off the waste - it's all on the freeway and you simply have to just drive home.

:P

    • Drain it. I got official Matic D but you can get whatever is listed as Matic D compatible.
    • Thanks guys,  Yeah I should at least have them dynoed, at least then I know what I've got as a starting point.  The springs on these are hard as rocks. I vaguely remember Russman saying he was going to sell the shocks to me with the rocks fitted, as he was keeping the softer springs for his new setup.  I didn't click at the time but of course that was to let me know the shock/spring wouldn't be matched.  I also remember pricing up new springs around 2014-15, but, house, money etc. it never happened. So that was another reason to have them rebuilt. I have rebuilt the forks on many motorcycles so I think I could handle the seals on these easily enough, but getting the valving right would be a rabbit hole I cbf exploring.  Duncan, interesting to hear RP was tuning these back then. I might give them a call.  In the mean time I have been busy fitting sway bars. The Whiteline rear sway bar I purchased 15 years ago finally got fitted, along with the Whiteline front bar that showed up last week. Just waiting on new links for the front sway bar to finish that off.  And my spare set of advan AVS VS5's should be back from the powder coaters in a Pearl White finish sometime this week, with a set of Hankook RS4's lined up for fitting.  And then I just have all the suspension bushes to do. A comprehensive kit is on the way... Lots to do before the Ararat hill climb. Cheers guys 🍻   
    • Nice car! I’m glad folks in the US have gotten past the FnF and are buying real cool cars like the 260RS I was with a bunch of mates in Portland about a year ago and spotted a green Stagea (just a regular 2.5T AWD) parked about 2 blocks away and they were like “a what?” So I made a bet with them for a round of beers and said “ok one of you run down there and tell me if the steering wheel is on the correct side” 5 mins later the American comes trudging back up the hill and goes “he’s right guys. Ok what beer do you want?”
    • Should replace OR drop the tank, give it's good clean. Might be worth replacing that entire fuel level/pump/cradle thing with this: https://frenchysperformancegarage.com/products/fpg-s13-180sx-r32gtst-single-pump-hanger-kit-billet-hat-6-v3-fpg-089?gQT=2
