haha bunch of pansies.

try a car with black vinyl seats, chrome shifter and metal steering wheel, with no aircond..

all factory baby...

It doesn't count if you can't actually drive it...

it was on the road for 3 odd years, so I have a fair idea.

my first car had no aircond either.

85 subaru brumby, however it was a t top model,

so you pop the roofs off, wind down the windows and you were sorted in seconds.

plus the dodgy plastic they used in everything in it never changed temps.

evo's can be easily modded to approx 230awkw without having to worry about EPA's and VASS etc

i may cop a defect for wheels or low... but that's personal choice and in a clean ~2004 evo, fairly easy to get a roady

Knox TMU will still get you for having a factory turbo or using too shiny a wax.

yes, but i'm not worried about a standard defect... sure it's annoying but it's something that can be cleared easily

I think being a model citizen well dressed with a baby seat in the back will drastically reduce likelihood of a defect

Anyone who says the way you dress doesn't matter has never dressed well enough to experience the difference.

Fact. Like it or not.

I'm guessing jacket would be unbearable in this heat that's why everyone's riding in singlets/tshirts?

Think I'll stick with car till it cools a bit

Wise or weak? Hmm

In other news, boat almost ready.

I don't find this heat that bad for riding...with a vented textile jacket it's alright while you're moving. But I'm not jumping at going for a ride either...

40 degree days, I've ridden on one of them and, stopped at the lights is your own personal hell.

    • Wife wanted basket things in the wardrobe in our temporary house. Thought about ripping our the wardrobe and fitting the entire IKEA set, but it's a temporary house and we want to move in a few years. So IKEA advertises this as a 50cm unit, however the actually basket and rails measure 46cm wide. Only issue was depth, IKEA stuff is quite deep, where as the builder special junk is super shallow at less than 40cm. Send it, chopped the rails, then offset the mounting holes, job done, happy wife, less shit scattered all over the bedroom. Did the same to the other side too. Also drove the Skyline shit box today, dropped off oil at Supercheap Auto. I didn't realise they only now take max 2x bottles per visit. I visited 2x Supercheap Autos.  
    • I've seen similar actually in my situation. You never know what tables are attempted to be used when the car thinks it's -99C or +200C. The fail state is not usually that extreme but you know what I mean - it was in my case though! This is where being able to read all the sensors is useful cause you see this stuff really quickly.
    • The above is very important. However as long as you keep timing relatively low, it's plausible to make your own knock ears and plausible to learn to tune with a modern ECU that can do wideband O2 correction like a boost controller. I mean if you only have one viable road to even drive the car on, learning to tinker to this level may be worth doing given you can't do much else with the car...?
    • I find the fact that the rear plate has to be bent inwards at the rear not so bad: but the front is just awful: It's like come on. (these are my very old, now retired/turned in plates) TBH it is a lot of money to fix a minor issue, the fact I said "I'll never really spend the money on doing this" is why people ended up buying them as a gift for a 'car guy' who can be hard to shop for.. for car guy things.
    • I just bent the ends of my premo plates. It even went through Regency like that after the engine conversion and the inspector (a great bloke!) just squinted his eyes and said "I didn't see that". Plates, and how they look, are just something that have zero importance to me.
