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 ....

    • GCG is a good company, they're a major distributor for Garrett in Japan as well.
    • Nah, OEM washer bottle and brake fluid reservoirs are fine I don't know what it is with the plastic that Mazda used, some plastics, like the washer bottle and brake fluid res are fine, and still look new after 20 years use, where as the coolant expansion tank, and PS reservoir, that I replaced with new OEM items when I first got the car, turned yellow and started getting brittle a few years later If the dirty yellow stained plastics didn't trigger me there wouldn't be an issue, but they did, much like the battery bracket....... Meh As for going back to work full time to support car stuff, nope, why, because I own a Mazda NC MX5, not a Nissan R series Skyline 🤣
    • I've never heard of CJ-motor, so can't advise you on them. I'd just go straight to GCG for a GCG highflow though. Seems no point to use a middleman. I'm somewhat surprised that the price on the CJ site is lower than the GCG retail price. Even though CJ would get a discount of some sort, you would hardly expect them to give up so much margin. Maybe the price is out of date? Having said that "I'd go to GCG"...when I did my highflow, I went to Hypergear. I did this https://hypergearturbos.com/product/rb25dethighflow/#tab-dyno-results with the R34 OP6 450HP profile. With the BB centre (extra $400) and intially with the standard boost actuator, but I eventually got him to send me the high pressure one when I got to the point of being able to actually use it. Ends up costing the same sort of money as the GCG highflow, but this is, of course, the turbo that I KNOW has a shorter length core and so moves the comp cover rearwards. The GCG apparently doesn't do that. My mechanic also swears by the GCG highflow, given that we have another turbo rebuilder who does something essentialy the same as theirs, using Garrett wheels. He says it stands up at really low revs and makes good power. I haven't pushed my HG highflow past ~240-250rwkW yet (should have a little more in it, but unclear how much) and it does have a fairly gentle boost ramp. OK, it's much better now that I have gotten my boost controller tuned up on it.  A lot of my earlier unhappiness was because I couldn't keep the wastegate flap as closed as it needed to be (including some mechanical issues). I'd still prefer it to boost up nearly as quickly as the stocker, and it certainly a bit slower than that. So maybe the GCG one is worth the first look (for you).
    • Ok thanks 🙂 I will higly consider this. Any "known" company for a good reviews and experience to send that off? Is that CJ-motor good one? Or go straight to GCG site? I need to use VPN to even find some of those "shops" let alone access them 🙂 
    • You can literally put in as much WMI as it takes to quench the combustion totally (and then back it off a little, obviously), and it will keep making more and more power. The power comes from the cooling effect of the water (and the meth) and the extra fuel (the meth, which also has massive octane). It is effectively exactly like running E85. One might be slightly better than the other, but they are damn close. But with either you can lean on the boost or the timing (or both) waaaay more than with just petrol and the results are similar. Here's the first thing I googled for an anecdotal bit of evidence. Can't access the attachment without being a gold member, but it is there for the getting if able to, or searched up elsewise perhaps. https://www.hpacademy.com/forum/general-tuning-discussion/show/wmi-vs-e85/
