OccupyAdelaide in Vic square. Best lol I've had in ages.

Apparently threatening civil disobedience if they're evicted... So what... They're going to put dish washing detergent in the fountain?

OccupyAdelaide in Vic square or somesuch. Best lol I've had in ages.

whats the go, anyone driving an import has to hit rev limiter all the time..........................why cause i really dont get it :blink:

i manage to drive the boxer and i dont feel the need to bounce it for 2 seconds b4 changing is this a secret squirrel thing :glare:

Think is because it spinning up, hence even though the speedo is saying 160 the car is only doing 100, while he's bouncing off the limiter the car is still accelerating. If he shifts to early hell fall off boost and he'll have to wait until he reaches his 6000 boost threshold again.

i got mates with r32's and 33's and i thought it was just how u had to drive em to get on boost :whistling:

import = fail

thems fighting words

:D

its funny really a lot of commodore and falcon owners are loving the benefit of turbos and shit and if its wasn't for the RD the japs did they probably still wouldn't be using them :nyaanyaa:

    • I've looked up the parts number (41011AL501). It's around $700 OEM. Usually our Infiniti G35 here in Canada have interchangeable parts with my Stagea but the parts number are not the same. I have looked around and it seems the JDM 2005 V35 Skyline (which is the same as our G35) has the same caliper but I cannot confirm. And I can't find a repair kit. The inner brake pads drags on the rotor, seems to be rusty piston. Thanks for the info by the way
    • This coupled with 6-9 speed autos with ridiculously short gearing is why these modern shitbox cars always seem so fast off the line. If it wasn't for those things, Raptors would not seem fast. The problem we have is there is a driveability gap between a more gentle take off and a wheelspinning sideways launch. The difference between ankle flex required to achieve one and ankle flex required to achieve the other is about 0.5°.
    • Yeah I think I'm also with the opposite here. It's 'hard to keep up with traffic' because in the real world I'm accelerating with 15% throttle and they are pinning it. It feels like I'm being an overt dickhead at anything above 15% throttle, so the car sounds like I'm being an overt dickhead to keep up with/get ahead of traffic when I'm really just trying to drive with traffic. There would be no issue 'keeping up with traffic' if we used the same level of throttle input/aggression to drive around. People really do just drive around with their foot nearly pinned in econoboxes.
    • To be fair it's the other way around. 300kw is boring in a modern Golf or BMW. They are so competent / well-engineered / devoid of emotion that you have to go stupid fast to feel anything. Whereas the <300kw RB still makes all the right noises and it feels good to drive. Can pull off at the lights with the turbo whooshing and the blow-off pssshing and feel like the coolest kid on the block. Just don't look to the side where you'll see the bored housewifes in their shitbox Yaris/Corolla/Camry that kept up because you didn't go fast at all
    • 300kW is so boring in a Skyline, you'll get spanked by someone's mum's Golf with Alibaba pipes, and an email tune.
