LOL at cutlery unification .... at the long-gone "Fairview Park Chinese" shop the old Chinese lady used to always ask when she presented your takeaway meal "You want spork"? And they were sporks too.

Me. I had Pete from PLMS do a quick road tune of my car once he installed the nistune daughterboard. Was good enough to drive home safely but he was quick to stress that a road tune is no substitute for a proper dyno tune

-D

actually a road tune with proper wide band sensor is better than a dyno tune but you have to be able to load the car up

Must be the day for old ladies to occupy all tellers at the bank :)

Another thing I hate ...

When you approach a red light, your lane is free, then a car from the other lane (with multiple cars) at the last minute moves across to get in front of you at the front of the lights. Then when the light goes green, they're the slowest car at the intersection. Why the f**k do they position themselves to pass the car in front of them, then proceed to not pass anything when they have a green light. ;)

And my vote also goes to the f**kwads who drive 60 in a 70 zone (or 50 in a 60), then just as you're about to pass them in another lane, they move over into your lane without indicating. :)

Happens on a daily basis Ruby. I had a moron flash his high beams and lean on the horn at me because I was doing 60 in a 60 zone and changed lanes in front of him while easily 2-3 car lengths in front of him. And he was in the right lane doing a max of 50.

Nearly every morning on the Port River Expressway there's someone doing 70-80 in the 90 zone and yes usually they're also in the right lane. Pretty sure a car got pulled over this afternoon doing about 60 in the 90 zone. Then there's those that change lanes without indicating, slow down at intersections (maybe waiting for a red light...?), those that speed up on yellow signals and run red lights, those that can't drive straight in their own lane and wander into both lanes, use the 3rd lane (the ones that merge into 2) at some intersections and then go slow enough to have to stop and allow traffic to their right pass..... and all because here in Adelaide there's too many fktards allowed on our roads. I could go on....

    • Mixing things up - installed some leather recaros to match the leather seat covered rear seats. Interior looks pretty schmick now except for some slight wear on the steering wheel which I will monitor and address if it becomes worse or actually noticeable!  
    • Didnt realise RB's had more then 1 head.
    • I'm normally copping my own abuse from neglecting my daily drivers. "Those suspension bushes will last a bit more", "Don't worry about the oil leak, just keep topping it up". The project cars I'm always doing things slowly on them as I'm wanting them to be done better, and neater, and nicer. Luckily I don't have to deal with 18 year old Matt's "Learning to wire" stuff in the project cars. And there's only one piece of wiring I'm displeased about in the Landcruiser, and it's about to be cut out... However, the box loads of parts that have been going through this place lately for the Landcruiser... Brake pads Brake Rotors Full handbrake overhaul Wheel Bearings Seals Swivel hubs Steering Boxes Half the suspension joints Shocks Air bags (Ones to go in the rear springs for towing) Water pump Timing kit Lower timing case Harmonic Balancer Radiator Lots of other little seals and shits Gas struts for the bonnet New power window switches And god knows what else I've forgotten... Ha ha ha I have my fingers crossed the pinion seals don't start leaking on the diffs, that the transfer case doesn't leak, and the gearbox input shaft doesn't leak, nor the rear main seal. As they're about the only seals I haven't replaced in the driveline! I'm seriously eyeing off buying new caliper rebuild kits front and rear brake calipers... I'll probably recheck all the valve clearances soon too, and hopefully, it should be all good and sweet to haul some long distance trips again!
    • Every time I pull my 3x gauges out of the console and see the crack-addict way that I did the wiring, and I just can't bring myself to tear it all apart and "make it nice", because it is currently working. In fact, the last time I was in there I probably made it worse.
    • The best part is when you own the car long enough that you look back and find your OWN ham fisted amateur shit!
