And makes me scared for you, birds, and the other dude when you overtake all the cars around corners like that. I dunno if it's the go pro, but fk I'd be too scared

You get caught up in the moment and stop thinking about safety, follow adrenaline and obey instincts etc. That's the main thrill of riding a bike, pushing the limits and getting out of it alive. 99.9% of the time you'll be right when making those decisions, it's the .1 that will get you one day. Very easy and quick to overtake on a bike though. The biggest mistake I make is too much corner entry speed after overtaking and then I have to slam on the brakes or I end up overshooting the corner. FYI that was a pretty cruisy ride through the spur, we weren't going that quick compared to some of the other riders up there and the gopro does make it look slower. I feel so safe when I get back in a car hahaha.

so having a look at the album that the above phaggotry come from, it appears the new thing i taking pics of slammed/fitted cars without tyres on the rims...

since when is it cool BECAUSE it's inconvenient?

fkn losers

Yeh well after we Learnt at sandown, I have a bad habit of overshooting corners. So I think a bike is probably going to go on the list when I'm ready to die

Brings me back to an argument I had with NS in the fitment thread, and I told them they are better off running 195 30 16 on a 18x10"

Close enough. I win

    • Reading through the engine service manual their advice is do a cylinder balance test. Unplug one injector at a time and see if the idle drops a consistent RPM. You can also do this using a Consult cable which is easier. They also call for unplugging the power transistor, then with the engine off and the fuel rail unhooked from the manifold verifying that you have good fuel flow (even injection, no dripping/leaks, etc) when you twist the CAS by hand. Also verify the spark by pulling the spark plugs and allowing the plugs to ground and turning the CAS by hand. I would also start doing the sensor checks and idle valve checks in service manual. Make sure the MAF tests reasonably, the intake air regulator is sane, etc. You may have to get new spark plugs.
    • This sounds very old of me, however since buying the Tiguan shit box, my view on shit boxes have changed.
    • 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.
