these are people walking along the street, driving next to you or in your car?

so random.

ive never had anyone comment on my driving unless i cut them off and even then its usually just a shake of the head or the dreaded one finger salute. How do you have the time to chat to all these people? I spose at 40km/h they could just jog along next to you..

On my way to the RTA today, I got flashed by some uber bogan spec VN Commo (front end missing, stockies on the back).

It was weird because he specifically flashed his lights at me.

Thinking it might be someone I know, I was racking my brain to who the fark I know drives something like that, came up with nothing.

Did my thing at the RTA (quickest RTA visit EVA!).

100m down the road HWP getting fuel.

Commo driver realised that us Car enthusiasts need to look out for each other.

Doubt you're reading this but, thanks.

I live up through the blue mtns and get flashes off old mate driving the busses regularly. He's 100% spot on too,they're waiting around the corner. Same as the big rigs. I'll warn both these guys as they earn $$ with their licence. Also give modifieds a headsup too as we get picked on a little more over ya bubbles, camrys and 4wd's. Officer dibble tries hard to fault that second radiator out the front but just can't. :dry:

There was a bit on tv last night about facebook pages that warn people where RBT's are in the area.

The news anchors where outraged about it, as were police, saying that it 'encouraged' drink driving.

I think they are reading into it WAY too much.

If your the sort of person who drink-drives, I strongly doubt you would jump on f**kin facebook and see where the police are.. how ridiculous.

Im not an active facebook user, but i would think people "like" these sorts of pages as a joke..

Oncoming Drivers:-

Drunks see the flash too late

P1s swerve to avoid the flash

Narcissists think you're coming onto them

Druggies think, "What was that?"

Manic ppl go faster

Grannies go slower

Cops are vengeful

No I don't flash. Never know who you're going to meet up with these days wink.gif

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAH^ I ALWAYS flash without fail. perhaps even excessively when i've long gone past the hot spot.............:D

      RB26DETT Sketchy boost mod?

      By ARB26 · Posted

      I might be way off the mark here.. there must be a T junction under the manifold. That takes manifold pressure through a check valve prior to the T, one side splits out to this bleed off orifice, the other straight to the wastegate actuators.

      RB26DETT Sketchy boost mod?

      By ARB26 · Posted

      Carrying out some engine due diligence before my first drive in a 260RS that has been in storage for 10+ years, and found two lines that are susposed to be plumbed into the boost control solenoid. One of the lines (the wastegate boost supply line) to actuate the gates, had a bolt in one end blocking it. The other line (main boost signal line) from the very rear of the intake manifold (RB26DETT) and runs up to the boost controller had this pill in the end of it as seen in photos. Other than the obvious (T28 Ceramic turbos might well be cooked)  Can anyone shed any light on if there is any validity at all with this mod, bleeding a constant fixed rate of manifold boost pressure off through this 3mm hole?  Is it deliberate?  Was this a 90s Jap mod done to RB26's? Or has someone just fitted this without any idea of what happens to ceramic T28s if they are not gate controlled?

      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.

      Duncan's V37.......race car?

      By soviet_merlin · Posted

      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.
