Life before ADD and shit like that.... NO... your kid is just an asshole!!

When people took responsibilty for actions instead of blaming some mental condition or they didn't take the right pills.

When minority groups weren't given more rights and special treatment than the average working class citizen.

end rant, oh yeah and O'GRADYs crinkle cut chips.... damn they were good.

if i ever meet you i will knock you the f@ck out. i have ADD, Are you calling me an asshole. If you dont have it then you wouldnt understand, so please dont judge

^^ dude you must be the Y generation because i know exactly where Martin is coming from and he is right 20 year ago there was no such thing as ADD

and whilst you may suffer something of an attention span disorder you cant go around blaming every thing on that

Settle down rocky.... I didn't call you an asshole directly.

I was making the point that no one takes responsibility for anything anymore... it is always blamed on some disorder or syndrome that made them do it. Its bullshit. As steve said, 20 years ago this sort of thing did not exist. Definitely generation Y steve... you look at some one in a manner they dont like and you are likely to cop a bullet!!

33drifter to make you happy I have edited my first post.

i know you didnt call me an asshole directly, and there was no malice intended. 20 years ago ADD did exist it just went undiagnosed. i dont blame ADD for my actions but i must say there are some situations where i think to myself, " someone without ADD would have handled that situation differently."

HOSTILE i dont want to knock you out, ( i doubt i would be able to.) i had just come home from boxing trainning and was feeling pretty tough at the time.

we're all good

I miss those bright sunny airy days when the reindeer would nuzzle your armpit, the rabbits would scamper at your feet, the tweety birds would sing happily on your shoulder, and the lion cubs would curl up in your lap. the colours and the smells were worth waking up to, green greens and yellowy yellows and the richest sky blue you could imagine.

All I see today is bleak greys and blacks, wilted flowers and dead birds. what a bollocksed up life this is.

whatever happened to my happy days you ask? dont ask me ask these c**t knees; not far off driving my stag into a pylon. fast. big pylon. if you see it on the news no it wasnt an accident. and no, Im not handling it that well atm so dont f*****g ask

;)

all Im worried about these days is who'll look after my kids once Ive given up.

now go back to work and smile, and realize & be thankful for how good you have it

      My BMW E39 528i touring

      Thanks for that, I'll check it all out. I can always do the brakes last anyway if its a problem.  The 16's are super cool, if they do fit I'll cruise around with them for a bit.

      Well, that's kinda the point. The calipers might interfere with the inside of the barrels 16" rims are only about 14" inside the barrels, which is ~350mm, and 334mm rotors only leave about 8mm outboard for the caliper before you get to 350, And.... that;s not gunna be enough. If the rims have a larger ID than that, you might sneak it in. I'd be putting a measuring stick inside the wheel and eyeballing the extra required for the caliper outboard of the rotor before committing to bolting it all on.

      Neil's R33 Gts-t Build

      By Duncan · Posted

      OK, so again it has been a bit of a break but it was around researching what had been done since I didn't have access to Neil's records and not everything is obvious without pulling stuff apart. Happily the guy who assembled the engine had kept reasonable records, so we now know the final spec is: Bottom end: Standard block and crank Ross 86.5mm forgies, 9:1 compression Spool forged rods Standard main bolts Oil pump Spool billet gears in standard housing Aeroflow extended and baffled sump Head Freshly rebuilt standard head with new 80lb valve springs Mild porting/port match Head oil feed restrictor VCT disabled Tighe 805C reground cams (255 duration, 8.93 lift)  Adjustable cam gears on inlet/exhaust Standard head bolts, gasket not confirmed but assumed MLS External 555cc Nismo injectors Z32 AFM Bosch 023 Intank fuel pump Garret 2871 (factory housings and manifold) Hypertune FFP plenum with standard throttle   Time to book in a trip to Unigroup

      Well, apparently they do fit, however this wont be a problem if not because the car will be stationary while i do the suspension work. I was just going to use the 16's to roll the old girl around if I needed to. I just need to get the E90 back on the road first. Yes! I'm a believer! 🙌 So, I contacted them because the site kinda sucks and I was really confused about what I'd need. They put together a package for me and because I was spraying all the seat surfaces and not doing spot fixes I decided not to send them a headrest to colour match, I just used their colour on file (and it was spot on).  I got some heavy duty cleaner, 1L of colour, a small bottle of dye hardener and a small bottle of the dye top coat. I also got a spray gun as I needed a larger nozzle than the gun I had and it was only $40 extra. From memory the total was ~$450 ish. Its not cheap but the result is awesome. They did add repair bits and pieces to the quote originally and the cost came down significantly when I said I didn't need any repair products. I did it over a weekend. The only issues I had were my own; I forgot to mix the hardener into the dye two coats but I had enough dye for 2 more coats with the hardener. I also just used up all the dye because why not and i rushed the last coat which gave me some runs. Thankfully the runs are under the headrests. The gun pattern wasn't great, very round and would have been better if it was a line. It made it a little tricky to get consistent coverage and I think having done the extra coats probably helped conceal any coverage issues. I contacted them again a few months later so I could get our X5 done (who the f**k thought white leather was a good idea for a family car?!) and they said they had some training to do in Sydney and I could get a reduced rate on the leather fix in the X5 if I let them demo their product on our car. So I agreed. When I took Bec in the E39 to pick it up, I showed them the job I'd done in my car and they were all (students included) really impressed. Note that they said the runs I created could be fixed easily at the time with a brush or an air compressor gun. So, now with the two cars done I can absolutely recommend Colourlock.  I'll take pics of both interiors and create a new thread.
