yeah.. that sure is a great pic!

what is it with excels anyhow? My mate used to live on a corner where 1 would cruise past really slowly (i think to check out the import cars parked there!) and it had such a horrid drone that when the auto changed into second it would wake up their baby!

Now, we all drive import cars with 3 inch exhausts.. we dont wake the kid up!

Man it was just plain nasty. She rang the cops one saturday after they did about 7 laps past!

I havn't seen that car anywhere in town since!

At Super Sunday, Parklands on the Gold Coast,.... a P-plater with a stock civic sedan (correction; I think he had Altezza-style lights) with air-bag suspension boucing up and down in front of the crowds as though he was driving a '64 Impala down Crenshaw Boulavarde in South Central LA. Only thing was, this Civic was banged up, panel damage, paint and duco missing, with bumpers hanging off on one side.

Each time he flicked the switches, it was like a bunny-hopping scrap heap,.... mind you, the P-plater and his passenger no doubt thought they were uber-cool.

Oh, and he ended up breaking something from all that show-boating.

Hyundai Excel with dual cannon exhaust, one on each side of it's arse. Angle mounted pointing up and out. Plates "55 ETA" I hope for the love of god thats not supposed to be SS Eater. It was driven by sumone from my work so i shall find out who and give them a bit of shit :D

Saw this thing on the way to work this morning

The guy was driving it like an F1 car.

No wonder it was so mashed up..

And the police wounder why i question them pulling me over, when this POS is on the road.

the fact you're doing 180+ up the highway wouldn't have anything to do with it ?

More so why my ride heights are anything from 10mm to 50mm, why I lack cats, any form of mufflers, and why i have not mod plated roll cages in most case's.

With a sticker like that, a roll cage that's nice and obvious, and stripped out,... no wonder cops pull you over.

That sticker is definatley going to grab attention. :D

That's not your daily is it ? lol.

    • Have you confirmed its the actual axles? Also the wheel bearings that mount on the hubs to hold the axles wear out. I replaced mine as they got play in them. It sorted my play issue. 
    • Ive converted a few clusters for the R33 with 320km/h dials. On the back there are some pads which can be bridged or unbridged (using solder or wick braid) to calibrate it. There is one bridge which is for MPH <> KPH; and there are combinations of bridges to offset it. There is probably a diagram  For example; this is my conversion for a 180km/h dial to a 320km/h dial (I put custom GT-R dials on it with the GTS25t layout) If you have J2 soldered (assuming the S clusters have a similar config to the R clusters); you may need to remove that solder
    • Back on topic 😉, these are some of the notable pages from the booklets that are supplied with each weekly parts update. I never knew the BNR32 test mule car had an S13 Silvia body...
    • This. A 3d wheel alignment is like $120...just take it to the shop. Since theres probably multiple adjustments that need to be made after changing something. Mine has front/rear lower arms, traction rods, tension rods, camber arms, toe arms, front upper arms, hicas kit, sway bars and coilovers. I measure from the edge of the bolt holes on the originals and set the same length on all the adjustable stuff to dial it as close as I could to OEM. Took it straight for alignment; it didnt feel right at all...after alignment, it feels perfect. Similarly i've just changed the springs on another car; and I still needed multiple adjustments to bring it back in spec.
