nah dude dont want no rash on my good jdm rims :D

driving v8 supercar aound sandown in a few weeks, going to flog the shit out of them. 6 laps (and yes i get to drive)

Lol you stooge. You do realize it's just an ss stripped out with a cage and bucket seats. Not a real v8 supercar. Your GTR will feel quicker

does it have 400fwrwkws like my cousins na gemmy? :P

the v8 supercar i drove had slicks, cage, full dash install, all the usual safety shit and tons of power

it certainly wasnt a 600+hp supercar, but it wasnt a 200hp one either

youll enjoy it, they are pretty sweet and go alright

Yeah i was a bit underwhelmed when i did that drive day too. It had wide slicks so it actually cornered reasonably well though, wasn't expecting that!

lol i know its not a real v8 supercar, still will be flogging the shit out of it and not worrying about anything it was a christmas gift :)

So what was the issue?

Well my mechanic tried to spin both wheels. The left one spun. The right didn't.

Turns out the handbrake was on BUT wasn't functioning on the left side so he got confused.

Soooo.... Haunted Hills today was awesome, despite my ridiculously stretched tyres and absurd camber I managed to be only .2 of a second slower than our El presidente Ash ;) hahahaha

nice! where the pics brooo?

haha s'all good.

Give me some pointers on low-ballin. How much higher is the stated price range compared to the absolute minimum someone will accept it for :P

haha yeh depends on the house, location and most of all the sellers motivation. If you see somethign you like link me i may have a contact within the agency selling it to get you a no bs idea on where its at.

I found that stated price ranges were usually much lower than the price the people were after - to draw people in

yeh that happens out east and inner west a fair bit its bs its all private sale where i am thankfully - much easier for buyer /seller. You can grab a bargain at auction though particurarly when the market is favouring buyers like now.

pretty pro mechanic..

those drive days are all different

i remember a thread on here about 2 years ago where someone went on one and he was only allowed to use 3rd and 4th, even in corners, and was not allowed to heal-toe...

so after like 3 laps he came into a corner hot and heel-toe'd it and got kicked out on the spot lol

yeh its fun but still not quick enough have done at calder and they only let you use 3rd and 4th gear the brakes are good though and you will want more laps

Lol f**k I wanna take my car there! Seems like he knows his shit :ninja:

You should try my old mechanic

Things they f**ked up:

- Passing a roadworthy when I had f*cked wheel bearings (wheel nearly fell off), bald tyres and crazy positive camber due to bent strut

- Putting BBQ gas in my mate's MR2. Compressor lasted 15 hours before it broke.

- Telling me that my engine number didn't match what was on my rego

- Setting my mate's idle so low that it stalled every time he stopped at the lights (car was running fine before he got it serviced)

- Scratched my Supra's paintwork and denied it

- Didn't tighten my wheel nuts. I was able to remove them with my fingers alone.

And somehow they still have a good name and charge through the roof. My new mech is much better :)

    • LOL, when one "money pit" is never enough Noice, and excellent work mate
    • I have more than enough digging, laying blocks, moving gravel, airrating, feeding and top soiling the grass, and setting up the veggie gardens growing some seedlings,  and then removing all the unused rock to keep me busy for the next few months at least,  hopefully the rain stops soon so I can get a few hours in this arvo, but, before that Sunday is washing day, is every body happy, you bet your life we are Nice country road day drives are a day off whenever I'm muscle sore from all the landscaping at the moment, but, more epic multiple day drives will start once the majority of the big jobs outside are completed
    • I hear that would involve some nice country road drives into the hills for Mark...
    • I thought I'd come back and add something I JUST learned. A Toyota LandCruiser with a 1HZ, mates perfectly with a bottle of Nulon brake fluid. As in, it perfectly screws in. Great make shift funnel when you cut the bottom of it off. This may work for your Corolla.   Unfortunately, tipping a 10L drum is much harder than a 4 to 6L bottle, and they no longer include the easy pour tap which was just perfection to use previously.  
    • Guys since i bought r33 gts25t coupe 1994 automatic a/t(manual swap 350z gearbox)  all i got is problems, always problems. Lets start with that when i turn key into ignition(ON) fuel pump doesnt always works. Sometimes i have to turn key twice Off/on/off/on until it primes. Its new, dw300 - 340lph. My gearbox broke so i did gearbox swap, install different intake manifold, injectors and i take pipes. Car was sitting in garage for more than half a year. I did assembly all not that long ago and when i turn ignition cant hear prime. All of sudden it stopped working. Theres many videos on YouTube how to make relay mod on r33 straight from battery so i did and it doesnt work! 😰 30 - battery positive  87 - positive from fuel pump to relay 85, 86 - one of two wires from original fuel pump wires(light blue, grey) and it didn’t work. so I check on ignition and took original BLUE relays wires from trunk, next to fuses. (I believe it’s IGN+ and ECU pin 18. it didn’t work…  tried connecting (IGN+ from og relay) and (ECU 104 from 1of4 FPCM wires) to my new relay 85/86 and it didn’t work.  I unplug FPCM. Didn’t work. im thinking what’s wrong   fuel pump is working, if I leave IGN+ on 85 and 86 straight to ground it works but it’s just nonstop. Since it getting constant 12v after key in ON. light blue wire gives me 6-8v.  so how this should be connected? What causing ECU not giving — on pin? Or I did sth wrong and that’s why it doesn’t work? I need negative signal on ECU that control fuel pump. What this should be?
