doh comment :)

i always thought it was amusing that alcohol and cigarettes accounted for a substantially larger ratio of deaths than every other drug in existance COMBINED

it could however be argued a crap load more people drink booze and smoke cigy's therefore you would expect more deaths in relation to it. but i have a dislike for illegal drugs so call me biast :)

and i stay the f away from coffee :P i know ppl that went into shakes on a regular basis when they tried giving it up. i have however fell victim to lunch time coke hits. its O K there's no sugar. o that was coke zero btw :P

and i see more talk of the kat tat chick bone or no bone. we had that discussion, it was established half of sau want aids :D

spot on luke hahaha i am a fan of Ms von D so leave me alone

Some say that the artificial sweetners will cause cancer faster than cigarettes will......!

And mobile phones give you head tumors and everyone must take fish oil everyday.... etc etc. We are all gonna die at some stage, if we all lived the perfect lives we would eat 2 fruit and 5 veg every day, be on more multivitamins than you can swallow at once and avoid all luxuries in life because they increase your chance of testicular malfunction or your skeleton jumping out of your skin. f**k it, live life!

Err.... I think you might have taken my post a tad too serious......

Lol not having a go at you Talbs, more a go at the reports on the news of everyday objects increasing your risk of death. Off on a tangent :)

LOL! I know..... I don't like any of those diet/artificial sweetner drinks myself and I don't think there is anything conclusive to say it causes cancer other than in lab rats :P

You're more likely to walk across the road and get cleaned up by a hoon driving a skyline..... :)

Speaking of cleaned up, I nearly hit some f**khead on a bike today. Was driving my brothers vitara and was in a slip lane to do a right hand turn into a sidestreet. Was on northeast road and the traffic was backed up and the two lanes of cars had stopped to allow room for the turn across the traffic. Anyhow, I'm turning in and this the sphincter of the universe flies past at around 50-60 and screams obscenities at me while I tap the brakes just enough to miss him, as he flies past. You'd think that cyclists exercise a little bit more caution, considering the bike lane is completely blind when the traffic is banked up (and the fact that the traffic was banked up for a good couple KM and the sensible drivers had left room for people to turn...

Is it just me, or are all cyclists total wankers?

Certainly can be.... I'm all for sharing the road, but when these morons ride 2+ abreast and block lanes they're just asking for abuse or even worse..... Funnily enough I too almost cleaned up a cyclist this morning go across the Salisbury Hwy intersection from Commercial Rd.... flamin mongrel was riding pretty much in the middle of the road where 2 lanes merge..... wtf :)

Transport SA pretty much vindicates both of us in this scenario :

Bicycles are classified as vehicles and therefore bicycle riders have the same responsibilities and must obey the same rules as motor vehicle drivers. Remember:You can be charged with a traffic offence in the same way as a motor vehicle driver. This includes incurring demerit points against your Driver's Licence if you hold one. You incur demerit points even if you don’t hold a Driver’s Licence (which can prohibit you from obtaining one). Although the law gives you the same rights and responsibilities as other road users, all road users may not be aware of this. You are more easily injured than motor vehicle occupants are and it is therefore safer for you to be highly visible and look out for other road users when riding. The law does not give anyone indisputable right of way. Do not assume that another road user is going to give way Some people will judge all bicycle riders by your actions. If you disregard the road rules, you can undermine the goodwill of other road users.

    • You Gregged a whole racetrack!?
    • Look for broken wire or bad connector at the motor. Might not be it, but is worth starting there, as it is easy.
    • Hi everyone, I’m having an issue with my R32 GT-R. Sometimes, when the car goes over a bump or experiences some vibration, the 4WD warning light comes on the dashboard. When I check the code from the control unit in the trunk, it shows Code 19 – ETS Motor. However, everything seems to be working fine — if I turn off the engine and restart the car, the light goes away and everything functions normally. Has anyone experienced this before? Where should I start troubleshooting this issue? Thanks in advance!
    • I'm back from the dyno - again! I went looking for someone who knew LS's and had a roller dyno, to see how it shaped up compared to everything else and confirm the powerband really is peaking where Mr Mamo says it should. TLDR: The dyno result I got this time definitely had the shape of how it feels on the road and finally 'makes sense'. Also we had a bit more time to play with timing on the dyno, it turns out the common practice in LS is to lower the timing around peak torque and restore it to max after. So given a car was on the dyno and mostly dialled in already, it was time for tweaking. Luis at APS is definitely knowledgable when it came to this and had overlays ready to go and was happy to share. If you map out your cylinder airmass you start seeing graphs that look a LOT like the engine's torque curve. The good thing also is if you map out your timing curve when you're avoiding knock... this curve very much looks like the inverse of the airmass curve. The result? Well it's another 10.7kw/14hp kw from where I drove it in at. Pretty much everywhere, too. As to how much this car actually makes in Hub Dyno numbers, American Dyno numbers, or Mainline dyno numbers, I say I don't know and it's gone up ~25kw since I started tinkering lol. It IS interesting how the shorter ratio gears I have aren't scaled right on this dyno - 6840RPM is 199KMH, not 175KMH. I have also seen other printouts here with cars with less mods at much higher "kmh" for their RPM due Commodores having 3.45's or longer (!) rear diff ratios maxing out 4th gear which is the 1:1 gear on the T56. Does this matter? No, not really. The real answer is go to the strip and see what it traps, but: I guess I should have gone last Sunday...
