So i Had the worst nightmare the other night, me n the missus were out having dinner, when we returned to the stagea, someone had managed to STEAL MY ENGINE!

I was absolutely devastated :P i think i might of shed a tear

The missus was not impressed when i told her about my "worst nightmare" i'd ever had

when i was about 18 i had a dream that i won lottery and got myself a r34 GTR.

then my street turned into a race track, so im flying aabout 180kph, then this race track turns back into my street, run up the ass of a flat bed tilt tray and launch into the air, barrel rolling into a building.

car sitting on its roof tring to get out, god damn thing explodes on me, woke up in a sweat ! scare be from getting a GTR until i buy a timid turbo car first up :S

I had a nightmare I came off a cliff at the Great Ocean Rd in the Stagea. The funny or strange thing is, as I'm airborne and quickly falling to the rocks below I was thinking to myself "geez I hope this car is well built" - kind of hoping the car will save me when I hit the ground ....

It did of coarse :)

not really night mear but entertaining . was dreaming about sitting in drivers seat wiring in a new head unit and brent my work mate starts tryin to climb in the drivers window so i start swingin my arms around and sayin fcuk off brent then i wake up and GF is staring at me and says " i only wanted some blanket"

That is without a doubt the worst nightmare, besides being stolen and never seen again - but geez how did your grill survive the impact?

LOL

NFI - but it was about the only visual mod on the whole car (aside from the rims) It was originally a 25X Four

That damage WAS sustained trying to punch a rear diff out of a WRX laterally though. Stood up damn well considering.

Hey Dale she looks alot straighter than that now hope to have her back on the road soon but working away puts a big dent in getting things done .

Look forward to seeing it again man.

The bit about the grille is interesting. When Rob literally broke his in half, the N/a grille, that I coveted, popped out and was near perfect. Only needed one zip tie.

Never told Rob I had a pic of his car and used to stick pins in it all over. Except for the grille.

Is that true or did I dream it???????

Going to bed now with some anti-depressants.

    • The rain is the best time to push to the edge of the grip limit. Water lubrication reduces the consumption of rubber without reducing the fun. I take pleasure in driving around the outside of numpties in Audis, WRXs, BRZs, etc, because they get all worried in the wet. They warm up faster than the engine oil does.
    • When they're dead cold, and in the wet, they're not very fun. RE003 are alright, they do harden very quickly and turn into literally $50 Pace tyres.
    • Yeah, I thought that Reedy's video was quite good because he compared old and new (as in, well used and quite new) AD09s, with what is generally considered to be the fast Yokohama in this category (ie, sporty road/track tyres) and a tyre that people might be able to use to extend the comparo out into the space of more expensive European tyres, being the Cup 2. No-one would ever agree that the Cup 2 is a poor tyre - many would suggest that it is close to the very top of the category. And, for them all to come out so close to each other, and for the cheaper tyre in the test to do so well against the others, in some cases being even faster, shows that (good, non-linglong) tyres are reaching a plateau in terms of how good they can get, and they're all sitting on that same plateau. Anyway, on the AD08R, AD09, RS4 that I've had on the car in recent years, I've never had a problem in the cold and wet. SA gets down to 0-10°C in winter. Not so often, but it was only 4°C when I got in the car this morning. Once the tyres are warm (ie, after about 2km), you can start to lay into them. I've never aquaplaned or suffered serious off-corner understeer or anything like that in the wet, that I would not have expected to happen with a more normal tyre. I had some RE003s, and they were shit in the dry, shit in the wet, shit everywhere. I would rate the RS4 and AD0x as being more trustworthy in the wet, once the rubber is warm. Bridgestone should be ashamed of the RE003.
    • This is why I gave the disclaimer about how I drive in the wet which I feel is pretty important. I have heard people think RS4's are horrible in the rain, but I have this feeling they must be driving (or attempting to drive) anywhere close to the grip limit. I legitimately drive at the speed limit/below speed the limit 100% of the time in the rain. More than happy to just commute along at 50kmh behind a train of cars in 5th gear etc. I do agree with you with regards to the temp and the 'quality' of the tyre Dose. Most UHP tyres aren't even up to temperature on the road anyway, even when going mad initial D canyon carving. It would be interesting to see a not-up-to-temp UHP tyre compared against a mere... normal...HP tyre at these temperatures. I don't think you're (or me in this case) is actually picking up grip with an RS4/AD09 on the road relative to something like a RE003 because the RS4/AD09 is not up to temp and the RE003 is closer to it's optimal operating window.
    • Either the bearing has been installed backwards OR the gearbox input shaft bearing is loosey goosey.   When in doubt, just put in a Samsonas in.
