Diary of a BMW 318 driver....

The other day I was cruising along as usual coming onto one of my motorways,

which was very busy with inferior cars. First off, I couldn't believe that

the volume of traffic DIDN'T slow down for me AT ALL as I came off the slip

road! I had to squeeze into a barely big enough gap between two cars in

order to get onto my motorway! (The driver of the car behind me did realise

his mistake though and honked an apology to me with a long blast of his

horn.)

Unbelievably, I had to do the same again before I could get to the BMW lane.

(Why do underlings use this lane? Surely everyone knows it is for BMW

drivers only?) Anyway, once I was in the BMW lane and posing along at 110km/h

enjoying the adulation that the inferior car drivers were giving me, I

noticed an inferior car ahead of me which was not only in the BMW lane of my

motorway, but was driving at a ridiculous 100 km/h! Naturally, I got to within

a foot or so of his rear bumper and flashed my headlights to remind him he

shouldn't be in the BMW lane of my motorway and to get out of my way. Of

course, once he realised it was a BMW behind him, he did just that, but I

could hardly believe it when he pulled straight back out behind me!

He also tried to keep up with me and when he realised I would out-run him,

he put on some blue lights in his front grill and urged me to get onto the

hard shoulder so that he could congratulate me on my excellent car.

Needless to say, I was eager to oblige and when we had stopped, the man gave

me a piece of paper confirming what I already knew - that my car goes fast!

Apparently he wants everyone to know what a superior car I have, so I had to

take my driver's licence to a Police Station to be sent away to have some

points put on! (They're not free points either - they're $60 each and I was

only allowed 3). But the man at the Police Station said that because I drive

a BMW, it won't be much longer before I earn the full 12 points, and then I

won't even NEED a driving licence, so they will take it off me!

See, now that's the sort of respect you get when you buy and drive a BMW!"

+ 1 for all camry's and variations. 90% of em drive along in lala land thinking there is no one else on the road.

+1 for the commodore drivers, they always seem to want to drag off at the lights, sneak up the inside left lane and force there way in, then crack they shits and start road raging if they dont get their way then try to force people off the road. I guess when you drive a crummydore you will always have to try and

prove yourself.

i dunno what it is bout toyotas. im careful and try to be safe in my line but as soon as i get into dad's camry im a complete ass. all the demerit points and speeding fines i have ever gotten were in the two toyotas we own. even when i used to drive a falcon i never was such a hoon

I don't know if this has been said before or not...

ANYONE THAT FLASHES THEIR INDICATOR AFTER THEY START TO CHANGE LANE!!!...

I'm sure I've read that an indicator is a STATEMENT OF INTENTION and not a FACT... ...And must be used a minimum of 100 meters before any change of lane or direction...

I could be wrong... ...It just seems like common sense to me...

    • You just need to remove the compressor housing, not the entire turbo. I would not be drilling and tapping anything with the housing still on anyways. 
    • So, I put my boat on a boat. First of all, I'm going to come out and say it. Why is Tasmania not considered a holy goal, an apex that all road-legal modified cars go to, to experience? This place is an absolute wonderland of titanic proportions. If people are already getting club runs for once in a lifetime 30 person cruises to Tassy then I've never seemed to see it. It is like someone replaced the entire place with an idyllic wonderland for cars, and all of the people living there with paid actors who are kind, humble, and friendly. Dear god. After doing a lap of almost all of the place I've found that it's a great way to find out all of the little things that the car isn't doing quite right and a great way to figure it all out. All in all, I drove for 4 hours a day for a week and nothing broke. I didn't even need to open the engine bay. This is by all means a great success, but it has left me with a list of things to potentially address. I also now have a 3D printed wheel fitment tool which annoyingly hasn't got any threads in it to actually assemble it. I might be able to tape it together to check the sizing I actually want to use, but it'll likely involving pulling the shocks out to properly measure travel at least at the front, and probably raise the car while I'm at it, at least in the rear. I scraped on quite a few things and I'm not sure how else to go about it. I was taking anything with a bump at what felt like 89 degree angles. And address those 10 other tasks. And wash the car. God damn it is dirty. And somehow, the weather was perfect the entire time - And because I was on the top of Mt Wellington it turns out it was very much about to freeze up there. I did something I typically never do and took some photos up there in what must have been -10 and the foggy felt like suspended ice, rather than mere fog. If you own a car in Australia, you owe it to yourself to do it.
    • Damn that was hilarious, and a bit embarrassing for skylines in general 😂 vintage car life ey. That R33 really stomped. Pretty entertaining stuff
    • Hi, I have a r32 gtr transmission. Does any of you guys have an idea how much power it will hold with the billet center plate and stock gearset? At what power level and use did yours brake with or without billet plate? Thanks, Oystein Lovik
    • Saw this replica police car based on a Mitsubishi Starion XX parked next to a 'police box' (it's literally a box) in Hirohata, Himeji City in Hyogo prefecture the other day. It's owned by Morii-san who is a local Mitsubishi Starion enthusiast. According to a local radio station blog post, he always wanted to make a police car himself based on ones he saw in his favourite Manga comics.  As it's illegal to modify a car to look like a police car and drive on the road, Morii-san tried many times to get permission from Aboshi police station headquarters nearby. They refused initially by after they got tired of that they granted him permission. However, the car can only be displayed on private property and obviously can't be registered as long as the police livery is present. The car was completed at a cost of 1.5 million yen (US$ 10,000) in addition to the car cost. A location was chosen outside Hirohata Police box where the car can easily been seen from the street. Morii-san has two other Starion road cars, both widebody GSR-VRs.
