went to the trouble of taking the 200 around to a potential buyers house tonight, which is no small thing when you dont have a licence and the only other manual driver in the house has recently had surgery on his knee, but anyways, i found a way.

get the car there (out in mile end), park up in the dudes very well lit drive way, and he spends 5 minutes looking around the car, doesnt pop the hood, doesnt look under the car, and doesnt ask any questions.

after hes done he comes up to me and says, "look mate, im a mechanic, and its obvious to me that this car hasnt been looked after, and i reckon its been drifted into a kerb or 2 eh, chuck us the keys and ill take it for a test drive, if im happy with it, ill give you $9k."

dont know what the hell he was expecting with that.

What a fkn knob!

Thats yas early in the year of 2006 that wasn't all the cars either we counted around 50-55 people even came over from interstate was very awesome as Heslo, nightcrawler, john munro and a few others can testify

Unfortunately a cruise of that size again would be a logistic nightmare

Edit we did have a lot of cars in the one spot for our trackday granted not 50 cars but a 50 car track day would make it super cheap but also mean you only get about 20odd laps

As some of you may already know, I'm in the process of getting my little part-time business off the ground (BITSUS Customs)

While I'm waiting for my professional website to come together, I've created a fcebook business page in the meantime.

So for those that may be interested,

EDIT: Must be a site sponsor to advertise any business on this forum

      This sounds very old of me, however since buying the Tiguan shit box, my view on shit boxes have changed.

      M35 Brake caliper replacement

      By Waders360 · Posted

      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
