Doesn't one country have card board type cutouts on the side of the road to remember those lost due to motor vehicle accidents in the actual spots? full life sized and kids sized cutouts?

That would be kinda creepy. You're driving in the middle of the night on a deserted rural road and then suddenly you see this group of shiny people next to you. Would probably freak the shit out of me and cause an accident. But then again, I've watched too many zombie movies...

yes, how is it more distracting then

WANT LONGER LASTING SEX written is size 400 font.

you gotta have a need for longer lasting sex for that sign to be a distration.

just sayin.

:thumbsup:

i think some people really need to exercise some common sense on both sides of the coin. I think its fine to put a memorial up as long as the people putting up flowers etc. dont do so covering vital signage however people need to take responsibility for their own actions - there are SO many more distractions when driving compared to a memorial that you may/may not see such as radios in cars, signs, billboards etc... if you ban memorials, where do you stop?

people need to stop turning Victoria in to a nanny state, harden up and exercise some common sense and take some responsibility!

I almost ran up the back of a car looking at a Jenifer Hawkins billboard once hehehe! It's no different to billboards on the Tulla freeway though I often wonder how the expect drivers to look at them when they should be looking at the road doing 100k's an hour....go figure. I think as long as they don't block line of sight or signs or there isn't a bunch of cars pulled over etc it's ok.

It's a bit like those TAC signs on the side of the Freeways that say "don't take your eyes off the road" and "feeling tired?" etc.

Well after reading that sign, I kind of do. YAWN.

I want longer lasting sex...my girl can't keep up :)

peak hour traffic, when it moves at about... well I could get out and walk faster.

I so no its just litter and like we need any more of that on the side of the roads. We do have cemeteries and pretty much most of the time when your dead thats where you end up, so thats where they should go to pay respect to lost mates/loved ones. Standing on the side of the road with slack jawed yokels cruising past doesnt seem like its the most respectful way to remember someone.

i dont find them distracting, should we make it illegal for a bikini clad woman to walk down the street for the same reasons?

however, is it a bit strange that people choose the location of someones demise to remember them?

    • I did basically the same procedure on a ZF6HP but the reason to pull the valve body is to replace the seals between the valve body and the transmission which are notorious for leaking pressure with age causing poor shifting and burning out the clutches. If you just wanted to exchange all the fluid you should be able to undo one of the transmission cooler return lines to drain into a bucket while using the pressure filler to keep it topped off. 
    • The title should have posted "EFR7670 exhaust housing selection RB26" I can seem to edit thr title on my Android.
    • I'm looking for some real world experiences/feed back from anyone who has personally ran a EFR7670 with a 1.05 exhaust housing or a .83 I'm leaning towards the .83 because its a street car used mostly for spirited driving in the canyons roads. I"m not looking for big numbers on paper. I want a responsive powerband that will be very linear to 8000 rpm. I dont mind if power remains somewhat flat but dont want power to drop off on top. The turbo I've purchased is a 1.05, although the mounting flange T3 vs T4 and internal vs external waste gates are different on both housings, I not concern about swapping parts or making fabrication mods to get what I want. Based on some of the research I've done with chat gpt, the 1.05 housing seems to be the way to go with slightly more lag and future proofing for more mods but recommends .83 for best response/street car setup. AI doesn't have the same emotions as real people driving a GTR so I think you guys will be able to give me better feed back 😀   
    • Surely somebody has one in VIC. Have you asked at any shops?  Is this the yearly inspection or did you get a canary?
