I was driving on the M4 today on the stretch of road just past kingswood station heading to st marys/blacktown direction
I know wat your talking about Yo-Yo.. but when u mention the tafe and hill are u sure u dont mean the great western heading towards st marys.

whoops I always get the two mixed up lol :happy:

looks like I touched on a nerve, glad I'm not the only one out there experiencing this

sh@un pretty much summed it up, seriously I've seen marked police cars PASS BY shitflamin mongrels mentioned previously and do absolutely nothing.

I especially hate the retards who go 60 km/h onto the M5 then do what? Accelerate at 1 km/h/min while cars/trucks/B-doubles are doing 100 FLYING past by or slamming on the brakes behind them. They won't be part of an accident but they will cause it for the cars behind them, fksticks!

I like the bullbar idea, I know the R31 has an aftermarket kit, seen a couple on ebay :)

Amen.. The European way of driving is SO much better. We seem quite happy to steal every other good idea from other countries, why not their method of driver training? I'm pretty certain that there is nothing in the driving tests about how to merge PROPERLY. NO, merging properly shouldnt mean slow down until you find an appropriate gap. The slower you go, the faster the cars approach you from behind. Tards :)

Regardless, if none of what we're talking about is policed, theres no hope!

nothing worse then driving home on the m4 or m5 during peak hour, when one person decides to put on the brake because he saw a cop car pulled someone over on the emergency lane, and everyone else puts on the brakes because they saw old mate infront slowed down, and have the cars backed up 4 or 5kms coz this person decides to make a hugggeee deal out of it

True story:

My dad accelerated onto a freeway back in perth, got up to the 100km/h speed limit, then braked extremely hard for a 74yro man in a camry doing the 50/60km/h on the onramp and taking 20 mins to get up to the speed limit. To avoid crashing into the camry, dad had to swerve into the freeway (the inside shoulder was too small to get past the camry) and subsequently got cleaned up by a harvey norman delivery truck.

Dad obviously got blamed for the accident, and wrote off his v8 statesman - but lets face it - it was the joker in the camry that started the whole domino effect of the accident. Even the guy in the truck said the idiot in the camry should have accelerated up to the speed limit. The guy in the camry just drove off (probably didn't blink an eyelid, or wasn't even aware of what just happened)

Just an example of what can happen with these retards on the road.

Not until after the first little hill after that set of lights does it become an 80 zone. It's still a 70 zone up untill then.

But yes i do agree with what your saying.

I hate once you get to Mt Druitt, theres 3 lanes but dicks in the right lane take almost to the fruit shop to get upto 80. Like FFS pull over and let us past.

why can't we

1. adopt the no speed limit idea of autobahn.

2. increase the speed limit to 80k during rush hour.

Because it wouldnt matter we would just be going twice as fast when we inevitably hit the retard doing 60km/h on the freeway and not have enough time to break. To add to that we would also have the issue of crazy bitches in their 4WD's flipping over week in week out because they thought it was safe to do 250km/h in their insert crappy soft roader here just because there late to get little Krystal to ballet.

that's where I was talking about, I was behind 4-5 cars on the dual lane after the set of lights that go to the tafe. it's an 80 zone after the 3 lanes merges into two, we were all taking off at the set of lights

in saying that too I hate when you are in a queue of cars stopped at a light and you're still stationary 40 seconds after the light turns green even though there's only like 3-4 cars in front

and that intersection where the fruit shop is can get pretty lairy when dumbasses merge right to head to mounty/st marys direction

i cant understand why people do that, seriously the cop has already pulled someone over they're not going to pull out and chase you if your 5k over the speed limit, even when people are doing the speed limit some tard still sees the need to slow down, and it always seems to be the guy in the fast lane that decides to do this makes me want to smack them in the back of the head as im driving past, would need a passanger for that tho lol

hahahaha, We always get a handful of these douchebags here in Newcastle that can't do the speedlimit and my solution to this is I pretty much ride their rear bumper and bully them into doing the speedlimit.

Amen about the F3 on-ramps and getting upto 110km/h. My old man used to be a serial offender until I rode shotgun with him to Sydney once... Let's just say he got yelled at after we cut off 2 large semitrailers whilst merging onto the F3. I needed a fresh pair of panties after that.

Furthermore, I can stand people that don't indicate on motorways when changing lanes! It's not that hard!

haha i was just thinking about this the other day! i take the m5 from city to hurstville quite regularly and omg the stuff i've seen just shits me to tears.

plenty of people in the right lane doing like 70km/hr in the right lane and it even says up the top in the tunnels "SLOW DRIVERS KEEP LEFT"

but when i see a speeder coming from behind me i always change to the left to let them past.

the other day i saw the worst thing ever in the m5 just before the kingsgrove exit, coming out of the tunnel is a slight incline.

i was about 1km before the incline and i just see brake lights in front of me and i'm wondering WTF? this is 80 zone and i've slowed down to 40km/hr?

travelling on the incline i see closer now a semi trailer is in the right lane trying to overtake another truck on an incline both doing 40km/hr.

seriously i was even considering just taping my daily drives and compile a video of slow drivers driving in the right lane causing road rage and unnecessary congestion

Headlights always on, loud exhaust and the old headlight flash usually works for me. However I have noticed a increase of the sheep effect when one person decides driving at 30km under the limit is normal and the rest follow.

In all that at least they arnt speeding.

Although message out today road deaths are up even though p plate regs came in etc. I think it was quite a large jump too.

    • Can't you put the pistons to TDC and then do the valve seals? Or will the drop down too far to pull them back up?
    • One thing I can tell you is, do it properly the first time. If you encounter unexpected problems just let the car sit for a week or two if you have to get some other parts or figure stuff out.  I'd have said go and use as many OEM parts as possible but since you want to change the turbo later on a custom kit is probably the better choice. Since I have no experience with RB25 just compare parts diagrams and images before buying a line kit and it should be easy to see if it has everything you need. Amayama has very good parts diagrams and part number lists, that is what I used a bunch to figure out what I might need. And don't forget to plan ahead and possibly renew other stuff that's easy to get to while you're in there doing the turbo lines. Happy wrenching
    • Update 4:   Hi all, good news. Engine is running and all the gaskets and seals seem to be working as intended. No leaks so far, even the JB Weld seems to hold. I flushed out the old coolant a few times and put in fresh coolant, not Nissan stuff, I decided to try the Ravenol Protect FL22, they claim it works for a wide variety of JDM cars and the opinions on it by some people were pretty good. And it has the nice poison green color! And man am I glad I bought a coolant system tester earlier this year, vacuum filling works wonders on this engine. I can definitely recommend this to anyone still doing it the old school way. All you need is compressed air supply. Will have to do a small test drive as soon as I can, I removed the gauge cluster again as the tacho needle was still bouncing around a bit but it was much better than before already.  I also found some cracks on all 4 tires inner and outer sidewalls. Apparently these tires should 't be parked on for extended periods or be kept under 0 degrees during storage, which I did not know. Clearly the previous owner didn't look into those details either, he probably bought them just cause they are cool semi-slicks. I'm just wondering how tf I am supposed to reach 30-80 degree tire temperatures on the public road consistenly, these tires were never going to work for my use case. I'll probably order Continental SportContact7 ones as these are the best allround summer tire available right now and I don't think I'll need anything crazier for now. Do let me know if you have experience with various tires and which ones you recommend.
    • You have no idea how many goddamn boxes I received these past three months haha Most have been put to use by now though, luckily
    • Not going to pretend I didn't do a bit of junky work this time around, but mostly due to the fact that some things I am not willing to spend days fixing right now, like wiring. I try to do most things properly the first time around.
