Practicable - "able to be done or put into practice successfully"

Courtesey of the Oxford Dictionary.

I fail to see how he was not able to successfully use his left hand indicator? That way he could let other road users know what he was doing so that any drivers coming in from exit three could have safely entered the roundabout.

Some roundabouts are too small to worry about the left indicator - i.e. by the time you've around to the exit #3 you're already pretty much out of the roundabout, and indicating left would probably be useful for about 0.003 seconds. That's when you don't need to indicate. Medium to large roundabouts - absolutely yes.

I have to partially agree with this..

I probably go around the roundabouts in a 'hoon' manner.. since I'm usually going 40kms.. So most of the time it's useless for me to indicate. Still do it, but they probably dont even see it

Tidy silver R34, seen it a couple of times around the Heathridge area. 1CVQ *** or something like that

First world problems

Doesn't matter how small the roundabout is. Could be the size of a pea ffs. You're still supposed to do it. Maybe in your view it may be impractical or unnecessary, but in the handbook it actually says all roundabouts. A lot of people actually go really slow through roundabouts, unlike a lot of us efficient people, so for our sake I would rather them indicate out.

Saw a nice white spoilerless 34 exiting Armadale on Monday night near Gull, going through the roundabout...

This is pointless and bordering on unsafe. I saw a tool trying to be champion indicating out of a small roundabout the other day. Because the roundabout is so small it looks as though he is turning left. One day someone will pull out in front of him.. maybe then he'll stop doing it? Not even cops indicate out of roundabouts. If you want to talk about effecieny, the bigger issue is the idiots that indicate right even though their going straight and bring the whole roundabout to a stop.

Lol, cause traffic cops are awesome and all police obey all the laws and are never convicted of fraud and/or hoon laws and live their entire lives by the letter of the law... :rolleyes:

But I digress, clean looking silver R34 GT-T coupe turning onto Marmion ave this morning heading south.

why are u bantering about f**king round about's you cant all tell me you don't all go through round abouts with indicator, get the f**k over it and get back on topic

black 34 kwinana fwy

purple 33GTR glengary car wash

34GTR davalia RD duncraig

32GTR Mitchel FWY STH

33GTST Pulled over by cops just after city heading sth

RED 35GTR heading sth on Kwinana

all between 8:30am and 1:30pm

a friend has spotted a white R33 with its front end extremely damaged and dumped on Elizabeth St in East Cannington. its near william st intersection.

if anyone is missing one I would suggest heading down there asap as it wont be there for long :(

    • What does it look like with highway driving? And yes, I had a similar thought as Duncan. It looks quite similar in my Stagea and I have made myself accept it as normal. Might have to look into it some day  
    • While I was waiting for the new parts to come in for the charge pipe and radiator I decided to do some turbo modification. The drive pressure (exhaust backpressure) was a lot higher that I thought it should be. For 32lbs of boost drive was 55lbs. The turbine housing is a 1.10AR and my turbo builder has suggested to go to a 1.25AR. To test if a larger AR would do anything to reduce drive pressure AND not spend any money I decided to hog out the divider in my current housing. I removed it from the inlet and the whole way through the housing.  After reassembly and testing it doesn't look like this modification did anything for reducing drive pressure or requiring more fuel (making more power). Oh well, it was worth a shot. We'll get some data at the track if it makes it past the 60ft. I also machined a $7 shift knob off Amazon to fit my Stillway shifter since I didn't like the Stillway shift knob. Next on the list was the radiator replacement and fabrication of a new intercooler tube that had no silicon coupler. No pictures of this - I was short on time each night after work to get this done and didn't stop to take pictures.  Next was to get the clutch disks out and replaced. Previously when installing the dogbox I had ordered a set of the same sintered iron disks I had been running because I switched to the 26-spline input shaft. I thought it was odd that they didn't have any markings or brand name on them like all my old disks had but installed them anyway. At the track I could not get the clutch to lock up using my normal strategies. After two track nights I reached out to the clutch manufacturer and ask their thoughts. They said they had to switch the material out because they were having trouble getting the original material and that this new material would not take to being slipped very well.  So out with the first set of 26-spline disks and in with the correct material 26-spline disks. While I had the trans out I added an inspection/service hole. I've wanted one of these for a while. Now I can have a look at things and change the front cover shimming when needed (clutch wear). I hustled and got the clutch change done in a few hours on a Saturday. Hopped in the car and drove home. On the way home I did a 1-3 pull. When shifting from 2nd to 3rd the core plug in the back of the cylinder head popped out and dumped all the coolant. Thankfully I was only 30 seconds from home and coasted it there. Datalog showed nothing unusual and 2.5psi of coolant pressure. That plug has been in there since 1992 but I guess it worked its way out. Pulled the trans AGAIN and replaced the plug, JB welded it in, and made a brace. Also deleted the head drain I had added in during the bearing issue fiasco.  I am currently changing my boost control plumbing to make it cleaner. After that is done I'll make another attempt at getting past the 60.
    • Are you 100% sure this isn't tune related?
    • 140-150 across the board. At this point hoping the grounding harness fixes it. My grounds are all tied to the chassis and none to the battery. For SR and KA that’s never been a problem for me but had a few other guys here and Reddit who told me RB really like a very solid ground setup tied to the battery so going to try that next, I’m stumped if that doesn’t do it. Never had a car have spark and fuel and not fire off before. Only thing I can think is the spark is intermittent/weak because of grounds nothing else really makes sense at this point 
    • I am having close to the same issue. Can you help me with what wire you grounded to get your pump to trigger?
