speaking of computers..

when i first moved up here my graphics car wouldnt work right (still doesnt) so i jumped down to FS computers on the GC highway

and the dude stuffed around for like an hour and couldnt figure out whats up with it, anyway he calls me into the back and says look it seems ok in away bla bla bla ... opens up my pictures and says here we will just open this picture to show that the graphics are still good. (oh pririor to this i had to tell him my password was 'goat' at the time and hes like 'haha ive heard funnier ones)

but yeah so he opens the pic and just as he clicks on it .. i realised it was a full screen shot of your belovered hello.jpg

and i almost had a heart attack when he clicke don it thinking this guy is gonna pass out when this loads or something, (dunno hello.jpg? maybe you should check out HTTP://GOATSE.CX) :):D:)

the poor guy was speach less and i was so ebaressed thinking .. this guy is gonna think im some weirdo or some shit

lol.. mine just came with the car so no idea whether they are doing any difference, thats all :D Seem to stop me nicely enough, but still get a bit of brake fade after heavy use.

My rear tyres are starting to get fugged though so brakes probably aren't the biggest stopping concern on mine.. got a lot of life out of *those* tyres :) 15,000 I reckon if I'm lucky.

that has to piss u off, james ur car aint loud at all, i got gt radials, cheaps tyres and i got like 35000 out of em i think which i though was pretty good, mum only gets like 27 out of expensive bridgestone things but shes a nut.

I only got 15,000 out of my dunlop lm702's 255's...

Not entirely happy with that...

    • This looks great! Awesome to have the 5 speed with an LSD in this. The Recaro's look like SR2's or SR3's. It's a shame they've been retrimmed as they would have looked sweet in their original colours. I think I'd want my agent to be a little more up front and informative too. I've never imported but I reckon it would make me a little nervous, so the more info the better.
    • Thanks for doing that Duncan! Makes you a good person in my books. We don't get kangaroos or wombats here. But we have bats and it's similar. AFAIK it's often the mums with a baby attached that get hit because they drop lower when starting from a tree. If you hit an animal, check on it. https://www.ifaw.org/au/resources/wildlife-rescue-app An app to get the closest wildlife rescue contact.
    • My dream is also to have a proper hoist, but I don't think it will ever happen. My quickjack is probably as close as I'll ever get, it really is very good though. 
    • Yeah we keep on in the dailies, it is pretty poor how many animals get hit and the driver leaves without checking....have saved a couple of little ones over the years. Bit of a gruesome job though, pouches generally need to be cut open because they are so tight and often the joey doesn't realise mum is gone so they are still locked onto the teat. I checked the modules in front of the DS wheel where an oil cooler should go.... There is the radar unit - that can go for race use) One of the 2 HX water pumps, the silver cylinder. That needs to be kept but might be able to be relocated But the bad news, the big computer mounted vertically in front of the wheel (blocking any potential air exit) is the electric steering computer. That is required until/unless i do a hydraulic steering conversion, and in CAD based modern car design it is not like I can just pop a big unit like that somewhere else (plus the loom would be too short anywhere else too). So, the passenger side is OK to clear out (just use a smaller washer reservoir, potentially elsewhere), but the DS no beuno
    • Well, all the best with the new camry It was interesting to hear about the UK process, it is generally a lot more streamlined here with a shipping agent looking after all the import side (noting the exact final price can still be a surprise.....) and I've used a few different brokers on the japan (or US) side, and never had any trouble with any of them....luck of the draw I guess. You mentioned you didn't get the auction sheet (understandable since you bought it from a dealer, not auction), but I always try and get hold of that because they are pretty thorough. I've imported 2x R grade vehicles over the years and both were fine, repairs in Japan are pretty thorough compared to here in Oz.
