@John, Joe,

Sorry but I feel the need to back the rear admiral up and I refuse to violate my policy of not posting on faceparty. Hell pizza is awesome, and I wish there was one near me too

Yeah, but I already knew you were gay.

What dude we met what day?

But yes, Option 1 FTW, as long as you don't mind sitting around for hours while they work on other peoples cars (despite being booked in), and don't mind having to go back and do it AGAIN after they put both tyres on for the left hand side. Price you pay for cheap tyres I guess...

I expect to be buying:

2 x 215/45/17 595 RS-R

2 x 235/45/17 595 RS-R

2 x 235/45/17 595 SS

Also will be getting another pair of SS's stripped off some skid rims and fitted to my advans.

They also do khumos really cheap (KU31s FTW) but since I already have a near new pair of 595s for the front, i'm going to get some for the rear and see how they compare. The grip is not quite as good, but maybe they will last longer...

Yeah seen that, heaps epic

but Alfa 3.2 V6 > RB26

:D

your mum > alfa 3.2 v6 < RB26

thats better

all this alfa talk makes me wanta slap you... break out of it...

Morning guys

I Fucking hate people, I wish they would all fuck off and die

John I was thinking about what were saying about jobs, and I think I have got one that will make you happy.

Dan at ERD does good prices on Federals too, then you can just take them and get them fitted anywhere you like.

Too far away :D

I could take the tyres from option 1 and get them fitted elsewhere, but they fit and balance them for 10 bux and are only 5 minutes from work, so I really CBF

I can grab them for you. Picking my car up from ERD hopefully today.

edit. I just read the whole post. nm :D

Can't find anywhere that will do a decent price exhaust for the golf.

Prices are astronomical. Might try to source one from Europe.

Try Scotty at Scots rods, good pipes, great prices.

ahh the old distance issue, could try Neta tyre services, they are the distributer and are at northgate

They are literally right across the road. I can see them out the window. Will give them a yell.

Yeah thanks for the offer bro, but probably too much hassle to work it all out

Can try Fat Pipes at Kallangur. I hear very good things from many different people, have not used them myself yet though.

    • This sounds very old of me, however since buying the Tiguan shit box, my view on shit boxes have changed.
    • I've looked up the parts number (41011AL501). It's around $700 OEM. Usually our Infiniti G35 here in Canada have interchangeable parts with my Stagea but the parts number are not the same. I have looked around and it seems the JDM 2005 V35 Skyline (which is the same as our G35) has the same caliper but I cannot confirm. And I can't find a repair kit. The inner brake pads drags on the rotor, seems to be rusty piston. Thanks for the info by the way
    • This coupled with 6-9 speed autos with ridiculously short gearing is why these modern shitbox cars always seem so fast off the line. If it wasn't for those things, Raptors would not seem fast. The problem we have is there is a driveability gap between a more gentle take off and a wheelspinning sideways launch. The difference between ankle flex required to achieve one and ankle flex required to achieve the other is about 0.5°.
    • Yeah I think I'm also with the opposite here. It's 'hard to keep up with traffic' because in the real world I'm accelerating with 15% throttle and they are pinning it. It feels like I'm being an overt dickhead at anything above 15% throttle, so the car sounds like I'm being an overt dickhead to keep up with/get ahead of traffic when I'm really just trying to drive with traffic. There would be no issue 'keeping up with traffic' if we used the same level of throttle input/aggression to drive around. People really do just drive around with their foot nearly pinned in econoboxes.
    • To be fair it's the other way around. 300kw is boring in a modern Golf or BMW. They are so competent / well-engineered / devoid of emotion that you have to go stupid fast to feel anything. Whereas the <300kw RB still makes all the right noises and it feels good to drive. Can pull off at the lights with the turbo whooshing and the blow-off pssshing and feel like the coolest kid on the block. Just don't look to the side where you'll see the bored housewifes in their shitbox Yaris/Corolla/Camry that kept up because you didn't go fast at all
