Ok, so rang up transport sa today and apparently i have to do a 'learners practical test' before i get my P's back..? Is this where you drive around with a dude in a car telling you to turn here and turn there blah blah and marks u on it? If so THAT REALLY SUCKS! Boss is going away for 4 weeks and im pretty much running the store from 7 til 5 so dont have free time! Hopefully they can do it on a saturday.. Anyone know?

what a pain! if its a test done in office at TSA you'll probably need to do it in business hours. But if its one of those practicals where you drive around, you shouldnt have a problem doing it on the weekend... you'll probably end up needing to go back to TSA to complete their bloody paperwork (in business hours) after you finish

Just detailed the whole car today... its very shiny... Come on summer hurry up get here :blush:

Jarrad - instructors can come weekend but less hours available - eg weekdays 8-7, weekends 10-5.... something like that.

I want to shoot my dog. :P

Less than 24 hours at the new house and its ripping up the backyard, jumped the fence into the neighbours yard, climbed all over my furniture, put a hole in my shed, and has now damaged the interior to the house. The dog has never behaved like this before. Its just gone nuts :blush:

Here's a pic of a homebuilt pocket/pitbike racer me and a racing buddy built last year.

All the guys at the Pooraka track had a good laugh at it, until my mate and I broke the lap record on it that day. :laugh It was pretty awesome to ride it. Now I'm almost finished with my custom pitbike (mini motard) and I'm going back soon to try breaking the lap record again :blush:

Maybe he found the previous owners clandestine meth lab and thought it was icing sugar..

-D

yeah man practical test is the one where you drive around with an instructor and have to do reverse parallel parking, 3 point turn etc etc.

Goodluck dude :banana:

Haha oh great! LOL I was hoping it would be one of those tests where they have a set course of roads/streets to follow and you have to abide by the road rules all they way and they grade you on it, im hoping its that anyways. For one, i cant reverse paralel park, my first instructor let me off because i was 'close enough' and had done it everytime but that time. And for 2, i havnt driven for 6 months, i mean, ive hardly been in a car and they expect me to pass it, but yeah, ah well, see how we go i guess. Thanks for the info guys.

Bah f**king povpack bullshit outback hillbilly inbred having sex with their cousins type bush mechanic idiocy

wtf are we all gonna be portrayed as yokel knobs that drive 30 yr old shitboxes that need to be hot wired

note to producers ; we have sealed roads in the cities.... they might be crappy sealed roads but theyre not gravel

this is the sort show that some dickhead at channel 7 says 'RIGHT lets give Shannon Noll a crapload of cocaine and tell him to go >fully sik< on it... hell we can even have a bootscooting segment... yeee hawwwww'

"How good was that?" is starting to sound like the opening question to the answer "Good az brew"....

Vomit

-D

reminds me that ive got a skyline sitting in my shed lol............will be something different to drive again afta so long when i get it out in a few weekends

hoping i havent lost the feel for the slide though........been 5 months since i last slid :s

    • I'm normally copping my own abuse from neglecting my daily drivers. "Those suspension bushes will last a bit more", "Don't worry about the oil leak, just keep topping it up". The project cars I'm always doing things slowly on them as I'm wanting them to be done better, and neater, and nicer. Luckily I don't have to deal with 18 year old Matt's "Learning to wire" stuff in the project cars. And there's only one piece of wiring I'm displeased about in the Landcruiser, and it's about to be cut out... However, the box loads of parts that have been going through this place lately for the Landcruiser... Brake pads Brake Rotors Full handbrake overhaul Wheel Bearings Seals Swivel hubs Steering Boxes Half the suspension joints Shocks Air bags (Ones to go in the rear springs for towing) Water pump Timing kit Lower timing case Harmonic Balancer Radiator Lots of other little seals and shits Gas struts for the bonnet New power window switches And god knows what else I've forgotten... Ha ha ha I have my fingers crossed the pinion seals don't start leaking on the diffs, that the transfer case doesn't leak, and the gearbox input shaft doesn't leak, nor the rear main seal. As they're about the only seals I haven't replaced in the driveline! I'm seriously eyeing off buying new caliper rebuild kits front and rear brake calipers... I'll probably recheck all the valve clearances soon too, and hopefully, it should be all good and sweet to haul some long distance trips again!
    • Every time I pull my 3x gauges out of the console and see the crack-addict way that I did the wiring, and I just can't bring myself to tear it all apart and "make it nice", because it is currently working. In fact, the last time I was in there I probably made it worse.
    • The best part is when you own the car long enough that you look back and find your OWN ham fisted amateur shit!
    • The annoying part about neglect, is when you start to replace one thing, and find ten more broken things. Ham fisted monkey repairs you normally only find out about when trying to do something unrelated! Ha ha   Neglect you can kind of anticipate the huge costs to fix it all. Ham fistedness is normally a shock the first time your work on a new old car, as everything "looked" good before.
