Haha I'll reply cause I'm bored too :O

Favourite restaurant... Italian Kitchen in Kaleen ever since Cafe Della Piazza closed :P

Best steak - Charcoal Grill

Fave shop - Portmans!! Welcome to DFO and anywhere that sells shoes, Steve Madden is a very nice addition to Canberra.

Car wash at Mitchell goes alright, always less busy than the Gunners one.

Bestest food van - GSpot!

Fave pubs - All Bar and Kingos

Fav roundabout is that big one near the war memorial at the very end of that road ;)

And Fav online shop is RHD Japan. Lotsa Jap goodies for my car.

Ok everyone else's turn to talk shit now.

Well, I'm procrastinating, so...

Pub? All Bar Nun is close, but if I'm in town there will often be a stop in at PJ's. The Kingo is never a bad place to spend an arvo.

Eat? Agree with Kat above about the Kaleen shop, but since I've moved I've become partial to Mee Sing at the Lyneham shops - CHEAP chinese, always friendly and never a bad meal in an almost weekly visit! Plus they deliver when it rains and I'm lazy :O

Steak? Mine at home, sadly I haven't had a better one in Canberra :P Was pleasantly surprised by Jacksons near Circular Quay when in Sydney a while back though... $14 inc a schooner of Squires and the steak was very tasty.

Shop? Not really my thing, probably Aldi or Bunnings :S

Car? Visit BP every few weeks, Waves Car Wash in Gungahlin is a good enough reason to drive up there every month or so... haven't been to one in Mitchell, might have to check it out as I didn't know there was one there...

Drive? GDE is nice and smooth with my suspension ;) Roads out Mt Stromlo or Uriarra way are nice on occasion...

its just off of Flemmington road diagonally opposite the tip.

Mooseheads sucks... Unless you like waiting 20 minutes to order a drink, being surrounded by teenie sl_ts, getting in a fight with a bunch of 18 - 19 year old wankers who have something to prove, then getting home and having to wash the soles of your shoes because you made the mistake of wading through the inch deep lake of urin in the mens toilets. :wave:

LOL ok I shall leave you boys to your randomness >_<

The pancake parlour is so wrong. I was with someone who ordered a steak that came out with a pancake as well (guessing you'd prolly call it a crepe) but savoury or not that's just weird!!!

Food- Thai Amarin, Erindale

Movies- Hoyts Woden* Tuesdays only :D

Chillout- Mount Jerra* Can't go there anymore >_<

Drive- Back Track, Sutton Rd

Best Food Van- Agree with kat, GSpot* i can never find it though

and also agree with gus about pancake parlour

GSpot= Bacon & egg roll with 1-2 mates

The Parlour= 1am Hunger hangout with a group

Both just as good as each other

    • I can see between the water jacket and cyl 3 there wasn't a hard line of combustion gas. It certainly appears that the issue is coming from there. Yes, checked the tension. All at 100ft lbs where I set them 5 years ago. These blocks can crack but generally when they have been over bored. Mine is only 0.5mm oversize at 89.5mm. They break between cylinders around the 91mm mark. No sign of that with mine. My gut feeling is the head gasket lifted a while back when the studs stretched and i bandaided it by retorquing the studs. It's finally let go.
    • My Nismo 1.5 churps a bit on reverse turns when cold, but besides that feels like a stock diff.
    • Yes, but, I paid cash and I'm pretty sure the receipt was in the bin 10 minutes after I got home Note to self, keep all receipts
    • Bunnings would have just handed you your money back on that one!
    • So, version 4 intake is on its way I was looking at these a while ago but at around $200 or more it was a little pricey for something that might not work, but, I had it in my watch list, but, I got a message saying it was on special, and I had a code thingie to use, it eventually came in at $120 delivered, so BAM, BUY NOW.....LOL I'll need to have a look when it arrives but I feel it will "look" better than what I currently have, as it comes with a PCV fitting, so I will be able to get rid of the alloy pipe that goes to the throttle body with the PCV fitting  Well, that's what the voices in my head are telling me  Oh, and this happened today Yeap, it was a Trojan, and it was cheap, so I headed back to the hardware store and actually spent a little bit more on a heavy duty,  one that was actually recommended by a plumber mate, a Cyclone one with a fibreglass handle that is actually rated for clay The broken shovel will eventually be "modified" into a short handle shovel
