dunno if you noticed belle but your car made the channel 9 news :)

Yeah a few people told me about it, was pretty embarrassed to be told to park in that area amongst all the mint muscle cars. Spot the odd one out anyone? :down:

yeh Ive been explaining to all and sundry how Isobel Redmond will get the complex a green light for go - so vote accordingly !!

rann fails again; to stay in power you give the people what they want.

pretty simple really

I've never actually voted Liberal, & up until the last election I wouldn't have thought twice about it (didn't like a lot of their ideas then & still don't now). Now though it's getting tough for me to vote back in a party have grown heads fat enough to make an elephant blush.

The tram line fiasco is another example. Most people said they didn't want it, so what do they do? Build the stinkin line anyway. It is not going to do anything that the buses couldn't, & buses don't permanently take up a lane the whole time. They really do not seem to give a sh#t anymore what people think.

Did anyone take any pictures? Or link me to a site that did?

Cheers

Did mean to bring my camera, was in a bit of a hurry when I left home myself. Annoyed because I wanted some photo's of this.

Well this is me...

Behind me is the dude with the Calais with the tiny turbo that tried to run me...

And this is the aftermath of the run...

For the sake of any researchers from Today Tonight who might be reading this, yes I'm joking...

^^^ yeah I LOVE how the tram stop near the Entertainment Centre is a whole 300 metres from the existing train stop - WOW what a super time saver that will be for the few people who visit the Entertainment Centre by public transport each year. Saves a 5 minute walk and inconveniences tens of thousands of motorists EVERY DAY. Awesome.

u know back in the day, the tramline went right up melbourne st and o'connell st.. maybe ranny poohs wants to get the tram back to those areas

if he was gonna offer the trams as free transport that'd be one thing, but the current ones are leagues behind the old 20-30 year old carriages they replaced

there is no such thing as an honest or decent politician, it seems like that is the inevitability of a two party system these days.... i just hope the libs stand by their promises (i still recall john howard and his 'core and non-core promises)... give me a break...I think this woman Redmond is far more credible than Rannistan, and shes gonna get the votes..

-D

EDIT - Dont accuse me of bias. I hate everything equally.

-D

Don't get me started with those flamin trams.....way back in the day they even ran along Unley Road, lol.

I do a fair amount of work throughout the CBD streets but gone are the days where you can easily do a U-turn anywhere along North Tce or along KW Street thru the breaks in the median strip (no breaks now).

Mr Rann, they got rid of the trams along time ago for very good reason, it's called a bus, without interupting all the infrastructure!

The Bee-Line bus (not sure if it still operates) used to run the length of KW Street to Nth Adel for free and would service all the peeps getting off the tram in Vic Square to the Nth Tce Train Station!

EDIT: and another thing Mr Rann, if you love the trams so much, move to Melbourne and don't let the door hit you in the ass on the way out!!

Yeah speaking of promises how are CRudds going?

- cheaper groceries

- cheaper petrol

- free laptop for every student

- ADSL2 for every Australian

Fail on so many levels.

But he did apologise to the 'stolen' indigenous population who now are suing us for $100M each for being rescued out of creek beds as infants when native food was short ....

    • You just need to remove the compressor housing, not the entire turbo. I would not be drilling and tapping anything with the housing still on anyways. 
    • So, I put my boat on a boat. First of all, I'm going to come out and say it. Why is Tasmania not considered a holy goal, an apex that all road-legal modified cars go to, to experience? This place is an absolute wonderland of titanic proportions. If people are already getting club runs for once in a lifetime 30 person cruises to Tassy then I've never seemed to see it. It is like someone replaced the entire place with an idyllic wonderland for cars, and all of the people living there with paid actors who are kind, humble, and friendly. Dear god. After doing a lap of almost all of the place I've found that it's a great way to find out all of the little things that the car isn't doing quite right and a great way to figure it all out. All in all, I drove for 4 hours a day for a week and nothing broke. I didn't even need to open the engine bay. This is by all means a great success, but it has left me with a list of things to potentially address. I also now have a 3D printed wheel fitment tool which annoyingly hasn't got any threads in it to actually assemble it. I might be able to tape it together to check the sizing I actually want to use, but it'll likely involving pulling the shocks out to properly measure travel at least at the front, and probably raise the car while I'm at it, at least in the rear. I scraped on quite a few things and I'm not sure how else to go about it. I was taking anything with a bump at what felt like 89 degree angles. And address those 10 other tasks. And wash the car. God damn it is dirty. And somehow, the weather was perfect the entire time - And because I was on the top of Mt Wellington it turns out it was very much about to freeze up there. I did something I typically never do and took some photos up there in what must have been -10 and the foggy felt like suspended ice, rather than mere fog. If you own a car in Australia, you owe it to yourself to do it.
    • Damn that was hilarious, and a bit embarrassing for skylines in general 😂 vintage car life ey. That R33 really stomped. Pretty entertaining stuff
    • Hi, I have a r32 gtr transmission. Does any of you guys have an idea how much power it will hold with the billet center plate and stock gearset? At what power level and use did yours brake with or without billet plate? Thanks, Oystein Lovik
    • Saw this replica police car based on a Mitsubishi Starion XX parked next to a 'police box' (it's literally a box) in Hirohata, Himeji City in Hyogo prefecture the other day. It's owned by Morii-san who is a local Mitsubishi Starion enthusiast. According to a local radio station blog post, he always wanted to make a police car himself based on ones he saw in his favourite Manga comics.  As it's illegal to modify a car to look like a police car and drive on the road, Morii-san tried many times to get permission from Aboshi police station headquarters nearby. They refused initially by after they got tired of that they granted him permission. However, the car can only be displayed on private property and obviously can't be registered as long as the police livery is present. The car was completed at a cost of 1.5 million yen (US$ 10,000) in addition to the car cost. A location was chosen outside Hirohata Police box where the car can easily been seen from the street. Morii-san has two other Starion road cars, both widebody GSR-VRs.
