i got told it was $80 for 40 rounds and you spend them in about 15mins :banana:

Lol ever seen a sleeping dog have a dream and it's legs start moving?

that has been sped up, still funny

Okay, so I'm going to catch the O-Bahn bus today for the first time in like 8 years.

And I'm meant to catch another bus and get off at a place called 'Banksia Park'.

Ah, I hate when some of my mates are Northerners lol. I'm going to get so lost.

oh noes dirty southerners in my hood

fark me, friday 13 th must be my lucky day!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

i just won x2 4 day reserved grand stand seating + pit entry tickets + a harley ride in the drivers parade

on nova, all i had to do was sms the name of the driver

who won the first ever clipsal 500, of course, twas craig lowndes.

bout time i won something.

they obviously didn't tell you who you would be sitting next too :D

lol, I saw this coming the day Rann introduced these new laws.......funny how he couldn't see past his nose like the rest of us.

Instead of his laws splitting up these groups, they've brought together sworn enemies.

Its the same with a lot of shit that rann has done

They call him media mike for a good reason... he does a lot of insubstantial nonsense which makes him look like he's hardcore but has absolutely no effect in reality...

Interesting to see the amount of hydro shops getting firebombed....

Theres a book I read a couple years ago called "Getting Justice Wrong : Myths, Media, and Crime" by the emminent NSW lawman Nicholas Cowdery QC (Who just happens to be the Director of Public Prosecutions in NSW)...

He makes many good points about how the legal system more often than not does a great job but has no problem pointing out its flaws and how we can improve it. He goes on to write about how the "war on drugs" is a total waste of time and he is SCATHING of political involvement in the law, and does a very good job of deconstructing politicians and their baseless aims. He has an entire chapter devoted to how the politicians pick a cause and start acting like gorillas to make the public think they're tough/committed/intelligent/principled/moral/etc...It's no wonder that the NSW politicians have been trying to get him ousted for the last few years because he keeps throwing pie in their faces, but thankfully they haven't managed it.

If any of you even have the smallest passing interest in law and order, I highly recommend you hit your local library. Theres a copy in most and it only takes a few hours to read from front to end....

-D

the coppers have been taking low blows, knowing they cant do shit.... defecting brand new harleys on the show room floor lol, id hate to be the officer sent in there and tell the owner of the business im bout to defect his livelyhood

    • There's plenty of OEM steering arms that are bolted on. Not in the same fashion/orientation as that one, to be sure, but still. Examples of what I'm thinking of would use holes like the ones that have the downward facing studs on the GTR uprights (down the bottom end, under the driveshaft opening, near the lower balljoint) and bolt a steering arm on using only 2 bolts that would be somewhat similarly in shear as these you're complainig about. I reckon old Holdens did that, and I've never seen a broken one of those.
    • Let's be honest, most of the people designing parts like the above, aren't engineers. Sometimes they come from disciplines that gives them more qualitative feel for design than quantitive, however, plenty of them have just picked up a license to Fusion and started making things. And that's the honest part about the majority of these guys making parts like that, they don't have huge R&D teams and heaps of time or experience working out the numbers on it. Shit, most smaller teams that do have real engineers still roll with "yeah, it should be okay, and does the job, let's make them and just see"...   The smaller guys like KiwiCNC, aren't the likes of Bosch etc with proper engineering procedures, and oversights, and sign off. As such, it's why they can produce a product to market a lot quicker, but it always comes back to, question it all.   I'm still not a fan of that bolt on piece. Why not just machine it all in one go? With the right design it's possible. The only reason I can see is if they want different heights/length for the tie rod to bolt to. And if they have the cncs themselves,they can easily offer that exact feature, and just machine it all in one go. 
    • The roof is wrapped
    • This is how I last did this when I had a master cylinder fail and introduce air. Bleed before first stage, go oh shit through first stage, bleed at end of first stage, go oh shit through second stage, bleed at end of second stage, go oh shit through third stage, bleed at end of third stage, go oh shit through fourth stage, bleed at lunch, go oh shit through fifth stage, bleed at end of fifth stage, go oh shit through sixth stage....you get the idea. It did come good in the end. My Topdon scan tool can bleed the HY51 and V37, but it doesn't have a consult connector and I don't have an R34 to check that on. I think finding a tool in an Australian workshop other than Nissan that can bleed an R34 will be like rocking horse poo. No way will a generic ODB tool do it.
    • Hmm. Perhaps not the same engineers. The OE Nissan engineers did not forsee a future with spacers pushing the tie rod force application further away from the steering arm and creating that torque. The failures are happening since the advent of those things, and some 30 years after they designed the uprights. So latent casting deficiencies, 30+ yrs of wear and tear, + unexpected usage could quite easily = unforeseen failure. Meanwhile, the engineers who are designing the billet CNC or fabricated uprights are also designing, for the same parts makers, the correction tie rod ends. And they are designing and building these with motorsport (or, at the very least, the meth addled antics of drifters) in mind. So I would hope (in fact, I would expect) that their design work included the offset of that steering force. Doesn't mean that it is not totally valid to ask the question of them, before committing $$.
