Yes, some of those nursery rhymes are nearly as bad as what you see in the Tiger Balm Gardens in Hong Kong or Singapore.

Perhaps parents read them with a smile to their little children so that they don't run away when they're taken to the shops.

Like, "Don't run away, or the spider will get you!" lol

Now if I were a spider, a cosy spot next to the door seal doesn't sound like a bad idea! Might even get the 'travel bug' er....

SICK!!!

This sir is a horrific topic. I could not get in the car at all should it be dead or alive...however dont they shed their skins? could the bigger newer improved model be waiting to launch its attack when you least suspect it?

HAHAHAHAHAHAAAHAHAHAHHAHAAA!!!

i used to have a spider that lived behind my side mirror. it used to always make a web accross the mirror. then he would make one from the antenna down to the bonnet, then another web on the left hand side mirror. then one day i noticed a web accross the aircon vent inside my car. i was scared he would attack me while i was driving.

then oneday i saw him dead near the gear stick. and all the webs stopped. :P

Ring a ring a rosey a pocket full of possies a tissue a tissue all fall down, This was a poem about the killer flu which killed half of europe.

yes although back in the old days, the mannerism was more formal, but i found they were more sinical....

this thread makes me shiver..

from my experiences, spiders seem to be fond of living in VN side mirrors, and lodge themselves far enough back that even a high pressure hose sprayed right in there fails to dislodge them. Touch wood, i've not seen any in my Skyline but it never gets parked under trees!

Fuse boxes also seem to be a nice home for them, have you had a look lately?

      Duncan's V37.......race car?

      By soviet_merlin · Posted

      Thanks for doing that Duncan! Makes you a good person in my books. We don't get kangaroos or wombats here. But we have bats and it's similar. AFAIK it's often the mums with a baby attached that get hit because they drop lower when starting from a tree. If you hit an animal, check on it. https://www.ifaw.org/au/resources/wildlife-rescue-app An app to get the closest wildlife rescue contact.

      Jacks that fit under GTR lips that can reach the subframe?

      My dream is also to have a proper hoist, but I don't think it will ever happen. My quickjack is probably as close as I'll ever get, it really is very good though.

      Yeah we keep on in the dailies, it is pretty poor how many animals get hit and the driver leaves without checking....have saved a couple of little ones over the years. Bit of a gruesome job though, pouches generally need to be cut open because they are so tight and often the joey doesn't realise mum is gone so they are still locked onto the teat. I checked the modules in front of the DS wheel where an oil cooler should go.... There is the radar unit - that can go for race use) One of the 2 HX water pumps, the silver cylinder. That needs to be kept but might be able to be relocated But the bad news, the big computer mounted vertically in front of the wheel (blocking any potential air exit) is the electric steering computer. That is required until/unless i do a hydraulic steering conversion, and in CAD based modern car design it is not like I can just pop a big unit like that somewhere else (plus the loom would be too short anywhere else too). So, the passenger side is OK to clear out (just use a smaller washer reservoir, potentially elsewhere), but the DS no beuno

      Well, all the best with the new camry It was interesting to hear about the UK process, it is generally a lot more streamlined here with a shipping agent looking after all the import side (noting the exact final price can still be a surprise.....) and I've used a few different brokers on the japan (or US) side, and never had any trouble with any of them....luck of the draw I guess. You mentioned you didn't get the auction sheet (understandable since you bought it from a dealer, not auction), but I always try and get hold of that because they are pretty thorough. I've imported 2x R grade vehicles over the years and both were fine, repairs in Japan are pretty thorough compared to here in Oz.

      BTW I measured the jack I have, it is 70mm at the saddle but you only have about 700 until it returns to 150mm high at the cylinder so it is good but no magic bullet.
