you frikken left as soon as I arrived!

Did I smell bad?

Yes and No.... Nat was keen to get home.

That's what she said.

Thats what Nuff said

I'm guessing after all the noise we made leaving, that the cops were probably there soon after. 6 cars leaving at once is pretty farkin loud :happy:

There were cops :)

yer, skid to leave!

Good man

lol slippy clutch no good :(

Ride it like it's stolen...

Sucked in mang. Looks to be a slow work day today. All nighter tonight getting assignments finished though. FTL.

So you found some inner motivation for your assigment hey??

f**k yes;

No. Just No. That thing looks like ass.

But I have forgotten that you LandCrabs like things that are busted and half arse....

That car covers the following LandCrab styles:

Wanting epic fitment but don't wanna spend any more than $200.... Can you just widen my steelies I got of my Mum's Camry? I can get some 'as new' 2nd hand tyres off da forums....

Chopped springs in the rear, stockers in the front, "cause all the cool kids are doin it......'

A poxy 'glass lip, cause it's easy to fix it when I touch park, yo.......... That and I get discount at trade supplies for cable ties.....

Euro plate not mounted on the bar, cause it makes it look 'Exotic' and I found at the trash 'N' treasure on the weekend.........

Sideskirts that were picked up for heaps cheap off da forums. Already black. I got a $2 can of fiddly bits and sprayed my awesome 'glass lip to match....

A farked pop up headlight motor, so the other one is adjusted to match... Peoople think it has an expensive lazy eye controller.....pft sif

If you had of posted this, I would have agreed....

Here are some pics of some cars that are sure to get your LandCrab juices flowing.....

This one is hella awesome. It has speedhunters on it... so full of win....

This is a 'Hatchi' that is so full of LandCrab win.... I bet the guy bought it off his gay uncle and went to town on it.

Sparco sticker $7 off eGay

'glass lip, minor damage $60 off da forums

'Meshies' with 'As New' tyres $150 (lowballed) off da forums

Bonnet pins $18 of eGay. Gives it a full track spec vibe...

Can of Fiddly Bits black $2 from trade supplies. Can now paint my 'glass lip and my awesome 'meshies' with it. It'll look so sick..

Until you try to drift (overtake a truck on the motorway in the wet) and run it into the armco......

jumbp001um9.jpg

Sick drift damage bro.........

Here is another sick LandCrab car..... mad props

It has original paint and everything........... on the door

3472236102_b8d04364c6_o.jpg

Bought a pair of 18 dish rims for soooo cheap. fuckin sick offset. could only buy a pair though... found em on NS.com

Got a signwriter to knock up some sick stickers too. This guy can be found at the broadbeach markets every 2nd Sunday. Cheap as too. $5 a sticker. Stick em o nthe glass, it wont damage the paint....

Creative painting of the hood (it's a fucking bonnet you muppets). Shows off every colour of your homo rainbow. YOur 3rd grade art teacher would have give you an elephant stamp....

very-good-elephant-2007.jpg

And this wuan is so JDM awesome

Don't bad mouth it, cause this shit is legit! So full of win!

resized-100_0459.jpg

This one has an awesome s13 from conversion....

Straight dump pipe, no exhaust, but 2x 100mm drain pipes frome trade supplies for $12 each! Baragain. Now what to do with them????

Cardboard tow hook painted custom green. Cause we all know that track day regs say either stock or RED hooks. Nice work.

I needs me somewhere to keep my funnel for when I have to refill the oil cause I'm too cheap to fit the leaking sump gasket....oh wait, that's the sump plug. Where'd it go? who cares, Gaffa tapes fixes all.

Oh and I was looking through the classifieds, and saw some tyres you may be interested in....

235/45/18 Linglongs

Ace tyre

Epic grips

Some camber wear, but other than that, in "As New' Condition.

$200

Fucking Land Crabs.... :happy:

Ride it like it's stolen...

So you found some inner motivation for your assigment hey??

I like riding it... :)

Yeah motivation that I f**ked myself over by taking so long doing this assignment. I managed to give myself Fri/Sat to finish it. Sun/Monday Law case study 2000 words, tues/Thurs cost plan for childcare centre and wed/Fri construction methodology for cultural village project. I'm boned.

Tangentially:

Landcrab Owners' Club - http://www.landcrab.net/ - For owners of the Austin-Morris 1800/2200 and the Wolseley 18/85 & Six :)

Euro plate not mounted on the bar, cause it makes it look 'Exotic' and I found at the trash 'N' treasure on the weekend.........

umm no dude its a car from Europe

...typical Scott bullshit...

at least its good to see all those guys are;

a) getting out there and tracking it

b) spending time and money on a RWD car that'll skid

:)

    • The car/ECU will have all the sensor that it needs and expect to have. I think i do not have to explain to you how the Link is way better specialy if you have swapped engine   I just do not want to deal with any "problems" cuz i have only Nistune which i learned is not that great and in my case cant even deal with that speed problem (Link can) And of course it will be way more easier to tune and diagnose and safe. And for the ECU/speed problem...i dont know.
    • Per Mark Roberts of Sonictune: Mark Robert Author At this time, no. No ETA either 2016-17 models. You will be able to purchase and install a 2018.5+ TCU though   TCU purchasing and pricing info! As we near the release of TCU tuning, I am going to answer some questions I get asked often.   What do I need for TCU tuning? At this time, you will need a 2018.5+ TCU to be able to tune. If you have a 2016-to early 2018, you will need to replace your TCU with the newer version. One good way to know if your TCU is good is if you have auto upshift in manual mode in 1st gear around 6500 rpms. If your manual 1st gear goes to 7k rpm and will hit the rev limiter unless you shift, you have the older TCU.   Why do I need to buy another ecu license/phone flash if I already have it on my ECU tune? The TCU is its own computer module. It is completely separate from the ECU. Because of this, you will be required to purchase a TCU license and, if your tuner has it, the phone flash license required to tune it via phone/bluetooth.   Do I need TCU tuning? TCU tuning is NOT required. However, the faster your setup, the more it will assist in track and dragy time consistency.   If I’m ECU tuned by (tuner A) can I get my TCU tuned by (Tuner ? Yes, since it’s a different module and a completely separate flash, you can have two different tuners. However, it is highly recommend that you have both tuned by the same tuner. For me, my TCU tuning will directly complement my ECU tuning style and features and running my ECU and another TCU or vice versa MIGHT cause some issues. At this time and for the foreseeable future, I will only be tuning my current ECU tuned customers TCUs.     I have a SYVECS AWD controller. Do I still need it? Yes! The AWD controllers main job is to control your AWD system. However, with TCU tuning, you will no longer need the auto-shift function as that will be done through the TCU. The AWD controller will still be very beneficial for racers looking to maximize traction on the launch.     Shift schedule changes: holding gears longer at lower pedal input as well as max shift rpm changes. Please note, the new ECU race rom coming out will address 90% of the shitty drivability issues these cars have through custom maps from myself and Racebox—as well as others I am sure.   Increase shift speeds: as seen in the videos I’ve been posting, the TCU shifts much faster once tuned.   Increased shift pressures: as also seen in the videos, much firmer full throttle shifts.

    • The fancy pants red shock tower brace is finally incoming from MX5 Mania, getting it shipped from 'Merica has been a long and problematic process, and GWR, the 'Merican supplier will not ship directly to consumers outside of the US, Mania basically had to order a heap of them, the colour choice was silver, or red, and we all know anything red adds 5 killerwasps of dynotorques..... Whilst it does fit over a 2.5, and I've seen a few photos and videos of it being installed and fitting, google also says it might get real close to the FAB9 intake front runner, people in the US says it does fit with the FAB9 intake, except for one person who said it slightly touched.......so there is that.....LOL..... As it seems that I am the first in AU to have this combination of parts there's no local knowledge about fitment, so I'm just a willing guinea pig in this endeavour, I'll cross my fingers and toes and hope for the best In other news, I ordered stuff from China  on the same day I ordered the 23° silicone bend from Victoria, the stuff from China arrived a day ago, the 23° silicone bend is still travelling around Australia thanks to Australia Post, and "may" be here next week
    • Very good news...I contacted Racebox about it last night. My car is a 2016 so remains to be seen if it is compatible, requires a TCU swap, or is impossible.
