smart things we should see on the road on this very special day: australian flags hanging out of windows or on airiels!

happy aust day

peace

Well speaking of that... I think there is still overboard.

I saw one that no word of a lie would have been 6m x 4m at least, was on a ute obviously. Rather funny.

All the above mentioned idiots and their cars really don't help the Red Neck cause!

yea.. Happy Australia day everybody..

take it easy.

I got invited over to the skid pan yesterday to see some of the local

sil's, 180's & 200's go at it..

I was totally shocked at one 200sx owner who blew up his SR20! ..and i do mean blew up. rod out of block kind of blown up!!

it started to make a big end noise.. rather loudly. The SR was not happy, so the smarty thought it needed a rev tune, that made the SR even more unhappy. he went back onto the pan and gave it what for. As he left the pan it gave up the courage to live and grenaded itself out of this world.

Damn, what is wrong with some people? R wrecking yards giving away SR's? I just cant understand y anybody would want to do that to their car? Instead of just having to dismantle the bottom end, now it looks like he needs a whole new engine.. Perhaps we should all pitch in and buy the lad a 4cyl VOLVO!

Saw something like that last night on the way to Willowbank, a ute with a flag tied from the top of the roof to the back of the tray, was freakin huge !

The young fella a couple of doors down has got an early 80's swift/barina with hole in bonnett and obligatory air filter poking out, also coming from the same house a bog stock vt ss sporting dash/console/pillar and bonnet gauge sets....wtf!! and almost weekly canarys.

Always makes me lol when I walk past.

I had one of those knight rider supras pull up next to me and try to race me. As he took off, I noticed that it was NA, with a massive exhaust, and custom SUPR4 plates. I think they were worth more than the car.

Did not even try to race him, just laughed at him at the next set of lights, as he sat there, once again reving the engine.

How the..? nice crunch!

dja notice the veiw in the mirror? who took the foto?

I saw a civic today with Vic plates that had twin exhausts.. but it gets worse.

he was shopping or something, cut INTO the bonnet were 3 gauges!

Kinda like a reversed upside-down chinese triangluar air scoop.

It looked stupid, i bet he couldn't read them either.

Is there cheap crack for sale somewhere or what?

How is it possable that so many idiots can do so much dumb stuff.. and still manage to breath?

      I refer you to this thread on PF, by someone who knows what he's doing. Paints a good picture of the humble AD09.

      Blue/grey smoke after idle

      I don't know, I've never done it that way, but 1. While it is an interference engine, there is still clearance between the valves and the piston at all points in the regular timing cycle 2. There is not a lot of distance before you can't catch the top of the valve stem any more I don't know if 2 is greater or less than 1. But 3. If it doesn't work out you are f**ked, engine is coming out to disassemble so it is a big bet.

      Semi slicks are horrible for road use, just use a high performance road tyre unless you really need the maximum grip. Noisy, unpredictable (amazing, until they are not), expensive due to very high wear and not good in cold and particular wet. And yes, it is a thing to store cars on stands instead of tyres if you know they are going to be parked up long term.....but who ever realises that a short park is going to stretch into years before it is out again!

      I know in Australia you'll definitely get above 30c. Parked in the shade in Summer you'll be above that. 😛 But in cooler climates, you might get that warm driving on the highway for a bit, but you'd never get to full heat temp. I'll try and find some of my historical tyre temps between Aus summer and winter (be aware immin the warmer area of Aus too.)
